Family Of William Leete 1 Of T PDF Download

Excerpt from The Family of Leete When I commenced my researches into the history of the family of Leete some forty years ago, I was actuated mainly by the desire to acquire, for my own personal satisfaction, a better knowledge of my ancestry. It was natural therefore, that, when I published my book in 1881, for private circulation only, I should place on record, in the form of a letter to my children, an explanation of the circumstances connected with the production of the work. I wrote as follows : - "Eversden, South Norwood Park, S.E., 5th September, 1881. "My Dear Children, In years to come, when you will be inclined to look more closely than now into the following record relating to your genealogy, you would, if left ¡11 ignorance, inquire with a natural wonder, how it came to pass that your father was able to place in your hands this small volume, crowded with facts concerning your ancestry, and bristling, from beginning to end, with the oft-reiterated name of Leete.
