Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Friersons of Zion Church and Their Descendants Judge Fleming, in his Genealogy of the Frierson Family, antici pates a query and makes an answer in these words, It might be asked why I, William Fleming, take so much interest in pre serving the genealogy of the Frierson family as to write it up at length. I can simply answer that both my grandmothers were Friersons, which really makes me about as much Frierson as those who bear the name. I, Theodore Frierson Stephenson, can make like reply; both my grandmothers were Friersons. Paternal from two lines, William, 3-3, and maternal, Robert, 5-b. And another personal statement I may be permitted to make. I have been gratified, and very pleased to find, in compiling this genealogy, so many bearing as a middle name my surname. This I esteem an unsolicited compliment to the Stephenson name. And, too, I may adopt the words of Hon. William Stuart Fleming, J r., who added to the original genealogy the Sketch of Zion Church and published that first book on the subject: I trust that present and future generations may not only be interested in, but profited by, learning who their ancestors were, and how they loved and honored the living God, and how He blessed and cared for them. For this purpose this book is published. We regret the omission of the name from this volume of any individual on this American continent in whose veins Frierson blood flows. Should this book fall into the hands of such individuals sufficiently interested to send their records we will gladly arrange and preserve them for use in another edition of this genealogy. More than a half century has passed since the former compila tion was made. Doubtless, before so long a time has passed again, some interested person will carry on. For such a person we will prepare, and bequeath, such records as may come to hand. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
