Excerpt from The Pedigree Register, Vol. 1: "To Save and Recover Somewhat From the Deluge of Time" We have, in the first place, seen through the press some 368 pp. Of authenticated genealogies and family history. There have been printed the pedigrees, some long and some short, of about 140 families - matter, for the most part, that could not be found elsewhere, even after most diligent search; that cannot as a whole be superseded or reprinted that has resulted, in almost every case, in the contributor adding to his fund of information: for the advantage of printing what you do know cuts both ways - while preserving the result of your laborious investigations you widen your knowledge by coming into Contact with others interested in the same families as yourself. The leading articles on various classes of records and the varied experiences of genealogical inquirers, and the section devoted to Notes, Queries, and Replies have proved service able, it is hoped; while the series of Female Descents, which we shall continue, has opened. Up vistas, not only of the most profound human interest, but Of scientific value from the point Of view of the student of Eugenics. Our study is the study of life itself; upon documents we have to rely for the knowledge of every episode preceding our own limited experience: all social progress essentially depends upon tradition and writing.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from The Pedigree Register, Vol. 2: The Official Organ of the Society of Genealogists of London Six years to our credit. Well, that is more than was allotted us by some of our critics. Our continued existence has encouraged at least two other adventures to be announced. We shall see if there is room for five periodicals devoted to genealogy and family history in place of the two which held the field when our own course begun. If we can dispel the common idea, that genealogy is a study ministering to vainglory, pretence and social exclusiveness, a great step in advance will be gained. If genealogy teaches anything it teaches the absurdity of claims for consideration based on long descent: the proof that evidence exists to-day to show the descent and illustrate the career of almost every English-born person for the last four or five hundred years, and only awaits indexing, is one of the purposes we set before us.
