Synopsis
Excerpt from The Hereditary Sheriffs of Galloway
Inquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers for we are but of yesterday, and know nothing. — J OB viii. 8, 9. Having rushed prematurely into print many years ago, as a natural result the volume abounded with errors of omission and commission. Happily the very extravagance of some of the mistakes induced gratuitous assistance for their correction. As, for example, a statement hazarded that the Agneaux, once numerous, were now entirely extinct in the country which was the cradle of their race, led to a mild remonstrance from the Bocages of Normandy, to which the volume had found its way, that their Scottish representative had not only ignored but annihilated them. Correspondence led to explanations and an exchange of visits, as agreeable as they proved fertile in results. The charter-chest of the Chateau Isle Marie and the departmental archives of St. Lo yielded documents innumerable, from which not only details were to be gathered as to the family in France, but particulars as to their settlements in England.
