Excerpt from The Woodmans of Buxton, Maine: A List of the Children, and of the Grandchildren and Great-Grandchildren Bearing the Woodman Name, of Joseph, Joshua, and Nathan Woodman, Who Settled in Narraganset No. 1, Now Buxton, Me I have taken great pains to be accurate in the matter of dates, but errors will doubtless be found; some of them due to myself, but others to those from whom I have derived my information I have sometimes found two or more dates for the same fact, and have generally adopted that which seemed most trustworthy; but in some cases of uncertainty have let two dates stand. Errors should be noted and corrected as soon as discovered. Blank leaves for this purpose will be found at the end of the book. In preparing this work I have had the aid and encouragement of not a few, but have also encountered the ignorance, indifference and stupidity of which all complain who engage in similar undertakings. My labor in this matter will, I hope, be better appreciated here after than it is now. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
