Synopsis

Excerpt from The Park Record: Containing an Account of the Ancestry and Descendants of Thomas Kinnie Park and Robert Park, of Groton, Conn;, And Grafton, Vt;; Illustrated

As stated above, the name of our family is parke, and as long as they remained in Connecticut, and down to the time of the Revolutionary war, they always used the final e, but upon going to Vermont, the final e was dropped. Of those who remained in Connecticut, some spell their name with the e, but we find members of the Connecticut families spelling their name with a final s, or even es. A final or extra letter seems to fill an ever present want, always supplied by the people at large, in addressing us, spelling or pronouncing our name, thrusting extra letters upon us, against our will and con sent. But nevertheless our true anglo-saxon name is parke.

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
