"I dedicate this brief biographical sketch of our ancestory so far as it is known to our children and children's children, hoping that each in turn will take up the thread and spin it on down to remote generations, as an incentive to noble effort, pure lives and virtuous deeds. Our only ambition in this direction is to be enshrined in the hearts and memory of an honorable posterity whose pure lives shall proclaim the virtues of their ancestors, and themselves be a rich blessing to their offsprings."
