Genealogy Of The Gillson And Jillson Family Classic Reprint PDF Download

Excerpt from The Sampson Family It is not intended in this simple history of your branch of the Sampson Family in Pennsylvania and Ohio, to give a complete genealogy. The book is written solely to preserve an account of this distinctive branch of the Sampsons, and purposely there is no intention of in cluding, beyond occasional reference, the New England branch. Owing to lack of the preservation of family history records, of old Bibles, of family letters, or even of tomb stones to mark the graves of many of these pioneers, this story cannot be absolutely complete in every detail. This book embraces fragments I have collected from personal conversations with those who are living, also an extended correspondence in England, Scotland, Ire land and America, and individual research in the numer ous historical and public Libraries of Pittsburgh, Harris burg, Philadelphia, New York, Cincinnati, Chicago, and Washington, D. C. Added to the above field of study a great deal of time has been spent among the various Court records in the territory outlined above, thereby securing authentic data and important facts through the channels of wills, deeds and property transfers that are not obtainable in any other direction. This collection has been compiled not only for the bene fit of your posterity and future generations, but to keep alive the revered memories of your ancestors.
