Excerpt from Genealogy of the Brownings in America From 1621 to 1908 In this age of enlightenment and civilization, no one is without love for his parents, brothers and sisters, or without regard for his near relatives and kins folk; and very few are without esteem and reverence for their ancestors, no mat ter how distant their connection. Among some nations, as for instance the Chinese, this feeling amounts to ancestral worship. It is this respect and interest which has led me to write the genealogy of my own family and of all the Brownings who have come to America, so far as I have been able to ascertain their history. I have also included the genealogy of one of the greatest, if not the greatest of English poets, Robert Browning, who has a world - wide reputation for his learning and poetic genius.

A “lively, intelligently rendered account” of a tabloid romance, scandalous divorce and the rise of yellow journalism in Gilded Age New York (Kirkus Reviews). Edward “Daddy” Browning was a famously eccentric millionaire when he crossed paths with fifteen-year-old shop clerk and aspiring flapper Frances Heenan at the Hotel McAlpin. Frances reminded Daddy of peaches and cream—and a scandalous romance began. Thirty-seven days later, amid headlines announcing the event and with the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Children in close pursuit, Peaches and Daddy were married. Within ten months they would begin a courtroom drama that would blow their impassioned saga into a national scandal. Peaches & Daddy vividly recounts the amazing and improbable romance, marriage, and ultimate legal battle for separation of this publicity-craving Manhattan couple in America’s “Era of Wonderful Nonsense.” Their story is one of dysfunction and remarkable excess; yet at the time, the lurid details of their brief courtship and marriage captured the imagination of the American public like no other story of its day.
