Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Morris Family of Philadelphia, Descendants of Anthony Morris, 1654-1721, Vol. 1
The author, upon becoming connected with the Morris family, by marriage, soon gathered together a few interesting facts and figures relating to its history; these formed a nucleus, around which, other facts and figures readily crystallized; and ever encouraged, and inspired, by the near presence of one, who worthily represents the Virtues of a worthy line, it became the pleasant task of leisure moments from professional duties, to acquire and arrange fresh biographical data relating to the family. In the course of time, several of its prominent members learned that a large amount of such material had been collected, and, it was at their urgent request, that its preparation for the press was ultimately undertaken.
