Sherman Genealogy Including Fa PDF Download

Excerpt from Sherman Genealogy: Including Families of Essex, Suffolk and Norfolk, England, Some Descendants of the Immigrants Captain, John Sherman, Reverend John Sherman, Edmund Sherman and Samuel Sherman, and the Descendents of Honorable, Roger Sherman and Honorable Charles R. Sherman Investigations in England as to the East Anglian Shermans of the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Centuries made by the late Charles Atwood White, of New Haven, and the late Senator George Frisbie Hoar, suggested and inspired the work resulting in the compilation of the early genealogies in this volume. Begun with no intention of publication, it expanded to such extent as to seem worthy of reproduction in permanent form with the addition of the genealogies of later times. The great amount of information about some members of the family furnished by ancient English records is noteworthy and will perhaps lead to further discoveries. The absence of any complete or satisfactory biography of Hon. Roger Sherman led to a more extended statement with regard to him than is customary in a genealogy. It is hoped that this will be appreciated by his numerous living descendants. Many of his descendants, those who have gone and those still living and other relatives mentioned, have attained distinction and honor in private life and public service. Errors and omissions occur in such a work in spite of every effort to be accurate and complete. Corrections are invited.
