Excerpt from A Genealogical Record of the Descendants of Henry Stauffer and Other Stauffer Pioneers: Together With Historical and Biographical Sketches and Illustrated With Portraits and Other Illustrations We cheerfully assented to the wishes of a friend, a descendant of the pioneer, Henry Stauffer, of Bedminster township, Bucks county, Pa., to compile a genealogical history of the descendants of the family. The object of the work being to preserve from oblivion the more remote history of the pioneer and his immediate descendants, and to place upon record the names and biographies of his descendants from father to son down to the present time and generation. It is to be regretted that the records are not more complete in some of the branches. Owing to a lack of interest in the matter, some, for reasons best known to themselves, failed to respond to inquiries for information concerning their respective families, thereby causing these defects. The effort has been in the direction of making the work as full, correct and reliable as possible. The work has been prepared at a great sacrifice of time and labor. Had all promptly responded to communications the work would have been far easier and more complete. The writer is aware that imperfections exist, but pleads in extenuation of the fact that the difficulties were insurmountable. The author acknowledges himself indebted to the many friends for kind favors received during the compilation of this work, and while we express our sincere gratitude to all who in any way aided us, we especially acknowledge our indebtedness to those who have very materially aided us.
