The Historic Genealogy of the Lowells of America from 1639 to 1899 (Classic Reprint) by Delmar Rial Lowell Pdf
Excerpt from The Historic Genealogy of the Lowells of America From 1639 to 1899 We call special attention to this chapter as a most valuable part of this work. We have put fifteen years of time and labor in this work, and Abner Lowell before us about ten years. Besides my wife has contributed several years of most intelligent labor. At first we had no thought of writing the Lowell Genealogy. We began with the purpose of straightening out some ancestral snarls for our children. Little by little it grew upon us until it was impossible to stop. We have not attempted a full history. One has said To do justice to the name of Lowell would require more than a moderate sized volume; a name not only distinguished in litera ture, theology and jurisprudence, but in all the relations of life. The family is justly honored, having derived its high position by works for the public good. The name is fixed upon monuments which can only perish in the wreck of all things.
