Excerpt from The Baird Family Centennial: With a Sketch of the Life of Francis Baird, the Pioneer, Who Settled in Warwick, N. Y. in 1765, and a Genealogical List of Some of His Descendants, and Other Papers Read on the Occasion of the Reunion at the Homestead of His Late SonThis booklet does not assume to be a complete history of the family, or of the pioneer and his descendants, but it is an' account primarily of the doings at the reunion, and a record of the articles read at that time. Some genealogical statistics have been appended to add to its value as a son venir. There are doubtless some errors in this part, but the writer has done the best he could to gather up such material as is given, although he was wholly unable in some branches of the family to get any data whatever.The booklet is sent forth in the hope that it may prove to be an intro duction, perhaps, to a history more worthy of this good old family, to be written by some of the kinsmen who may have more time at their disposal.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
