Description:EDITORIAL PREFACE. The inception of this work like that of many others of the same kind occurred in the early life of the compiler through a desire to learn something about his ancestry. His researches at first took only the direction of tracing his own ancestral lines. Incidentally, however, he preserved and arranged such collateral records as thus fell in his way. Among his papers are to be found several of these early compilations, each more elaborate than the former but all bearing evidence of having been made only for his own satisfaction with apparently little thought of publishing. In the course of his search through New England sources for traces of ancestral lines he met with the works of a number of local historians and genealogists that contained more or less elaborate accounts of the early generations of New England Underwoods. These various and often contradictory accounts he endeavored to revise and harmonize and at length he published the results of his labors in the New Englayid Historical and Genealogical Register, Oct., 1884. This work incited his ambition to collect the records of the New England families of Underwood and to publish as complete a genealogy of the family as possible. He now set himself systematically to this task by getting out circulars of inquiry and distributing them over the country wherever he could find persons of the name living. At the same time a close watch was kept for all references to the name in history and literature and every opportunity was seized to search through original sources for documents and records bearing upon the family. During a period of twenty-five years this work went on, though more or less inteiTupted at times by the pressure of the busy life of a prominent college professor and an eminent scientific investi- gator. A vast amount of material was gathered and the ...We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
