Genealogy, Historical Documents & Photos, Family Histories
Excerpt from the Emerald Jubilee (1953), from
"Our Birthright" by Joseph D. Tomlinson: "As countries and
states and cities
honor their founders, we may not find excuse for not embellishing the memories of those
who sent their life's stream
of noble blood into our veins, for any failure to carry forward the historical and
genealogical information so nobly
and purposely laid by them. No: but we will embellish their memories, adding our own
to theirs,
leaving it where thousands [italics added]
gather to find genealogical and historical backgrounds for their families."
Did our ancestor
envision the World Wide Web?
It is
our duty as individuals to seek after our immediate deadthose of our own line.
