The Family of Blackleach Burritt, Jr.: Pioneer, and One of the First Settlers of Uniondale, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania (Classic Reprint)

Book Synopsis: Excerpt from The Family of Blackleach Burritt, Jr.: Pioneer, and One of the First Settlers of Uniondale, Susquehanna County, Pennsylvania

In compiling this little book I have consulted and received great help from Prof. M. D. Raymond's Sketch of the life of Rev. Blackleach Burritt. We knew so little about the life and labors of that most interesting man but for his research and his "Sketch." And from -Orcott's History of Bridgeport and Stratford, Ct. Orcott's History of Derby, Ct. Cole's Commemorative Biographical History of Fairfield, Ct. Schenck's History of Fairfield, Ct. Sergeant Francis Nichols and his Descendants by Walter Nichols. History of the Hubbell Family by Walter Hubbell. Heraldic Visitation of Wales, by Lewys Dwnn. Ritztap, "Armorial Generale."

I wish to acknowledge the kind assistance of Mr. J. H. Kennedy, Clerk of the Session of the Pleasant Mount Presbyterian Church, in searching the church records for me, and also to Mr. J. E. Thomas, Clerk of the Session of the Uniondale, Pa., Presbyterian Church in giving me the dates and records of my family in that church.
