Description

This first public edition of Dr. Jeannette Franc Throckmorton's family history book is transcribed from a hand-typed manuscript, given as a Christmas gift to her sister, Daisy, in 1914. Within its pages is a treasure trove of genealogies, family stories and images, each providing new or further insight into a well-known English-American family and its extended branches. Along with the Throckmortons are documented the Crows, Lazears, Bentleys, Days, Scotts, Sutphins and Howards, primarily of Pennsylvania and Iowa. The original book is in the possession of a descendant of Jeannette and Daisy's beloved brother Charley, and they wished to preserve its knowledge for future generations using modern means.

Along with the Throckmortons are documented the Crows, Lazears, Bentleys, Days, Scotts, Sutphins, and Howards, primarily of Pennsylvania and Iowa. The original book is in the possession of a descendant of Jeannette and Daisy's beloved brother Charley.
