COULD the early settlers of this country have fore-seen the earnest desire which so many of theirdescendants of the present day would have to trace outtheir ancestry on the farther side of the ocean, they woulddoubtless have left behind them the necessary data. Asit is, a hint here and there, or a few items of circumstan-tial evidence, more or less trustworthy, is all that remainsin many cases by which to connect the emigrant ancestorwith the source of his European origin. The difficultyis increased by the fact that many of the emigrantsof two hundred and fifty years ago were poor, or wereyounger sons, and left no estates behind them, howeversmall, which would have secured the preservation oftheir names upon the records. And not a few, leavingthe old country without permission of the government,for obvious reasons concealed both their names anddestination. 2 yessMp
