Tuesday Trivia

 

Great quote to share with you today. Found it in the book “The Scotch-Irish: A Social History,” by James G. Leyburn, 1962.

“A person in search of his ancestors naturally likes to believe the best of them, and the best in terms of contemporary standards. Where genealogical facts are few, and these located in the remote past, reconstruction of family history is often more imaginative than correct.”
