Book excerpt: Excerpt from Genealogical Memoranda of the Quisenberry Family and Other Families: Including the Names of Chenault, Cameron, Mullins, Burris, Tandy, Bush, Broomhall, Finkle, Rigg, and Others It has been about ten years since I first conceived the idea of collating all accessible information concerning each branch of the ancestry of my children, and perpetuating it in print for the benefit and information of future generations. The plan I at first pro posed to myself was a verr comprehensive one, and embraced no less an undertaking than the tracing back of each line to the re motest ancestor possible, even ill Europe, and then coming back down the line and including every descendant of the remote pre positus, even to the present time. I soon found that the success ful accomplishment of that kind of an undertaking, if possible at all, would require the whole work of a number of people for a lifetime each, together with unlimited means, and so that plan was abandoned and the much less pretentious one adopted ill its stead is not so perfect. As it might be. For, hampered both by a lack of means and of time. I have been able to prosecute my re searches for genealogical data only desultorily. But, as I can see no prospect of ever getting the work into any materially better shape than it now is, though it is very imperfect, I have con cluded to print it as it is, and thus preserve what I have been at so much pains to gather, little as it is; for life is uncertain, and in case of my death before its publication even that little would ill all probability be lost again. The work, I fear, will not be satis factory to any one; it certainly is not satisfactory to me; but, such as it is, it really does contain much information that is of value to the members of the families concerned, and that is worthy of be ing preserved by them. I think it undoubtedly gives to all of them information about their ancestors that thcv never had before. 1 hope my little effort mav be the means of so interesting others that a much fuller and more perfect work mav be the outcome some time in the immediate future.6 introduction.
