Book Description
Excerpt from Daniel Shed Genealogy: Ancestry and Descendants of Daniel Shed of Braintree, Massachusetts, 1327-1920 About 1880 the author sought to learn something about his own great-grandfather who had been, tradition said, a revolutionary soldier. In satisfying this curiosity he found others of the family equally anxious to learn about their ancestors and thus his researches went on, gathering records where many had sowed and few or none had ever reaped, until they assumed considerable volume. The family register thus begun and prosecuted and herein pre sented contains little that will interest the world at large from either an historical or literary view, yet it is hoped it will prove of some service to those who, bound by ties of a common ancestry, have their relationships thus brought together for the first time. It is not a history of famous men nor of high dignitaries in Church or State. Many men seek to honor themselves in that certain ones of their name have been great soldiers, i'lsts, preachers, of whose rank they speak with pride.' Our forefathers were plain men whose true record is that of honest yeomen, earning their daily bread by the sweat of their brows, clearing up a new country and making homes for their families; pledging their lives for these rights, even through long wars, and once their rights secured returning as sturdily to their customary avocations. Of such men, others' ancestors as well as ours, and their careers, it may not be necessary to write a history. They need it not; the Whole country is their memorial; without them it would not now exist; it is a worthy and lasting witness. But to collect the names of these men and women too, from the fast fading pages of many books, here and there, to say that they did well by all.
