Book excerpt: Excerpt from Woodhull Genealogy: The Woodhull Family in England and America A preface has been likened to a visit of ceremony with half an excuse for not calling sooner, and half an apology for calling at all. Be this as it may, for various reasons, a preface seems an absolute necessity in a work of this kind. Moncure D. Conway says, in the last generation young people who betrayed any interest in their ancestors were apt to be snubbed, and old family papers were abandoned to the mice, but gradually interest in genealogy has crept back. Well it is that this is so, for family history is often most inter esting and inspiring. Unfortunately, the records of many old families have been neglected, lost, or destroyed; in this respect the Woodhull family has been particularly fortunate. Time-stained ancient records, old wills and deeds, as well as many printed references both in Eng land and America, have furnished valuable material for this family history.
