Excerpt from A Genealogical Register of the Name and Family of Herrick, From the Settlement of Henerie Hericke, in Salem, Massachusetts, 1629 to 1846: With a Concise Notice of Their English Ancestry Nor will he deny himself the satisfaction of believing, that his humble effort to redeem from oblivion something of the history and fortunes of his race, will be received with favor by his kinsfolk; that it will serve as a useful book of reference, and a medium of recognition and intercommunication among relatives otherwise strangers and unknown; and that it may induce those sentiments of cordiality and kindness, and of fraternal respect and communion, so grateful to our best and holiest affections, and so desirable to have revived, and cherished and perpetuated, among the descendants of a common ancestor, however widely they may have been separated and dispersed over distant hemispheres estranged from each other, or alienated from the land of their Fathers.
