genealogy of the dickey family

Book cover
PREFACE.It was not my purpose originally to compile a history for publication, but to learn, if possible, more of the descendants of my great grandfather, Samuel Dickey, than I had previously been permitted to know. Meeting with unexpected success in that direction, it occurred to me that the record would be far from complete unless the families of his brother Elias and sister Elisabeth were included. Thus the purpose has been to trace all the descendants from William down to the time of writing. It is not prompted especially by a sense of pride in the number of illustrious characters brought into notice; for in that respect it may not excel most of its contemporaries. But there are few persons possessing an ordinary desire for investigation who are not anxious to know something of their ancestry or of those connected with them by a common line of descent.This history includes the genealogy of the female branches equally with the male, though it is much more difficult to trace the Table of Contents no contentsAbout the Publisher Forgotten Books is a publisher of historical writings, such as: Philosophy, Classics, Science, Religion, History, Folklore and Mythology.Forgotten Books' Classic Reprint Series utilizes the latest technology to regenerate facsimiles of historically important writings.
