Excerpt from A Collection of Family Records: With Biographical Sketches and Other Memoranda of Various Families and Individuals Bearing the Name Dawson, or Allied to Families of That Name The series of books which have been thus laboriously filled finds an end in the volume which is now presented. The family name, common and widely disseminated as it is known to be now, was, in the early days of this enterprise, rarely met with and scarcely known outside of a few nearly related families. It was natural to suppose that all of the name, at least in this country, must be descended from a common ancestor, discoverable by genealogical researches. How far this early belief was from the truth, this collection of records will bear but partial evidence. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
