"Family attachment, the interest we naturally take in events relative to our ancestors, the curiousity (perhaps the vanity) we are disposed to indulge in tracing our descent, and the gratification it may afford to my posterity, induce me to mark such simple facts relative to the family of which I am a member, as have come to my knowlege; though it will amount to little more than the noting of their births and deaths." Col. Timothy Pickering (My 5th great uncle) From "Life of Timothy Pickering" (Volume 1) By; Octavius Pickering.
