Nor 1s the work itself unat­ tended by human interest am! even something of the dramatic, for it is an accomplishment made possible by one who has p=¾5sed from our midst, an achievement of hands that are stilled.

    GENEALOGY COLLECTION Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2018 https://archive.org/details/bellfamilyofmiffOObell ■ . THE BELL FAMILY OF MIFFLIN COUNTY, PENNSYLVANIA The Ancestors and Descendants of John Henderson Bell of Decatur Township By RAYMOND MARTIN BELL President of the Bell Clan Washington, Pennsylvania 1941 Copyright, 1941 RAYMOND MARTIN BELL Printed in L’.s.a. EDWARDS BROTHERS, INC. LITHOPRINTERS ANN ARBOR, MICHIGAN 1941 FOREWORD 1169825 The writer* has been gathering material on his Bell ancestors for 25 years. At first he was interested in tracing his ancestral line. This gradually developed into "A Record of the Descendants of George Bell, Sr. of Decatur Township, Mifflin County, Pennsylvania, which was completed in manuscript form in 1924. A summary of this was published in booklet form in 1929 as "Founders of the Bell Family." A second edition was issued in 1930. Subsequent research enabled the writer to prove that George Bell was a son of William Bell of Paxton, Dauphin Ccunty, Pennsylvania. A brief record of William; his son, George; and his grandson, John, was published in 1937 -- "John Bell of Barree Township, Huntingdon County, Pennsylvania." While the writer has record of thousands of descendants of William Bell of Pax¬ ton, he has decided to publish only the data on the John Henderson Bell branch. The -founder of this branch, John Henderson Bell, was born 150 years ago. He was a great- i^grandson of William, of Paxton. The fact that many of his descendants meet in reunion ’1 every three years at Newton Hamilton, Pennsylvania, is one of the reasons for restrict- ! ing this history to one branch of the Clan.
