Book Description

Excerpt from Genealogy of the Roberdeau Family: Including a Biography of General Daniel Roberdeau, of the Revolutionary Army, and the Continental Congress; And Signer of the Articles of Confederation A word may not be out of place In respect to the reasons for publishing a book on family history. The principal of these reasons is that the writer, having in his possession very many facts in relation to our ancestors, and knowing there to be among the members of the family an universal desire for such informa tion, considers it a duty he owes to others to impart his knowl edge to them, especially considering that these facts will not only be more valued by each succeeding generation, but will become, also, more difficult to be obtained.
