Charles Norman Harrington, La Crosse, Wisconsin: Branch of the American Family Harrington (Classic Reprint)

By Charles Norman Harrington

Excerpt from Charles Norman Harrington, La Crosse, Wisconsin: Branch of the American Family Harrington

The facts set forth in this volume are as reliable as such facts usually are. Those relating to the first seven genera tions were transcribed from Hudson's, Bond's and other histories found in the genealogical and vital record sections in many of the New England Libraries. Those relating to the last five generations were gathered from relatives or various records, and from my own acquaintance with them.

In all my research very meager reference was found to the mothers, wives, daughters, sisters and aunts of the valiant men whose histories fill thousands of volumes. This produced a grievous impression upon me and resulted in the presentation in this volume of the Allied Families.

Only a few of these genealogies are being printed; they will be of no interest to the public and are not for sale. No attention has been given to Literary Rules and Regula tions. They are dedicated exclusively to my progeny, and consist of a few simple stories your dear old gramp is tell ing you, thinking you would like to know something about us folk - who we were, what we did and what some of us looked like away back here in the n.r.a. Period; and how you will smile at our funny photographs and the peculiar clothes we wore.

I trust that this, the result of my prolonged endeavor will be accepted with a reasonable degree of appreciation by you youngsters.
