Excerpt from History of Cecil County, Maryland: And the Early Settlements Around the Head of Chesapeake Bay and on the Delaware River, With Sketches of Some of the Old Families of Cecil County Of the manner in which the work has been done, the reader must judge for himself. The author is painfully conscious that it is far from being perfect. The loss of many of the early colonial and county records and the miserably dilapidated condition of many of those extant, have added greatly to the difficulty and labor of the work, and made it in some cases impossible to refer the reader to the sources from which important information has been obtained. Not withstanding which, the author has quoted largely from the archives of the State and county as well as from the writings and correspondence of many persons mentioned in the work, believing it better to do this than to obtrude his own language and opinions upon his readers when it could be avoided. He has aimed to be impartial and truth ful, and hopes if the following pages do not add much to the general stock of information they may be the means of pre serving some portions of the history of the county, much of which has been irretrievably lost.
