Description
Excerpt from Somerset County Historical Quarterly, 1912, Vol. 1
The older generation is passing away; its members Of half a century past could have thrown a ?ood of light upon Revolutionary and post Revolutionary times in Somerset had such a magazine as this quarterly been hitherto established. Soon there will only exist a generation whose knowledge of ancient affairs must be at second, third or fourth-hand. Even the Older tombstones in our many ancient farm and churchyard cemeteries are crumbling, and, unless soon transcribed, cannot be read. Some of the older church records are also not in a good state of preser vation, and should be copied and published while it is possible to do it.
