Book Description

Excerpt from The Knox Family: A Genealogical and Biographical Sketch of the Descendants of John Knox of Rowan County, North Carolina and Other Knoxes We also had research made in the records of Scotland, the result of which is, so far, rather unsatisfactory. The failure to connect this family with the line of John Knox, the reformer, may be due to the fact that we were unable to locate with certainty the birthplace of John Knox, of Rowan, our immigrant progenitor. Notwithstanding the undertaking has proven quite a tedious one, we have enjoyed it, the only regret being that 1 was not. More capable of doing justice to the subject. Many, very many, errors will be found, no doubt. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
