Description:Excerpt from A Rescript of Treadwell and Platt Genealogy, Vol. 1: "A Good Name in Man and Woman, Is the Immediate Jewel of Their Souls" "Not to know what took place before one was born," says Cicero, "is to remain forever a child." The end undertaken in this work is to collect and preserve in a simple form some memorials of our immediate ancestors, men who lived not for themselves, but to serve God and their country. Were it possible to search probate and town records, the half-hidden monuments in old cemeteries, and local or general histories thoroughly, there might doubtless be gathered material for a volume, which to those who are linked to the departed by ties of kinship and tender recollection, would be replete with interest. The frost of age blights sharply; the ruthless years sweep away the very homes where they lived; and, alas! how soon those to whom their living presence was known, will, like them, have "passed to the majority." To us who remain will be left the duty of emulating their virtues, their piety, their love of civil and religious liberty, their devotion to "the common welfare of all," which characterized them, as it did the Puritan Fathers of New England.
