    GENEALOGY OF THE LEFF ER TS F .;\Ml LY BY TEUNIS G. BERGEN, BAY RIDGE, NEW UTRECHT, N. Y. ALBANY, N. Y.: JOEL MUNSELL. I 8i8, PREFACE. In searching for materials for a genealogy of the Bergen family, much matter was gathered for preservation and future use, relating to the other early settlers of Kings county. In some cases old family records of births, deaths, and marriages, were found to be confined to a single copy contained in an old Dortrecht Bible, which, if lost or de­ stroyed, would have obliterated the dates of the births, etc., of a gencr<1-:ion. At the request of members of the Leffens family, and with their aid; especially with that of Mrs. Gertrude L. Vanderbilt (dau. of John Lefferts deceased); John Lefferts, attorney of Philadelphia;' and J. Carson Brcvoort; and alsp of the Rev. Garret C. Schenck of Marlborough, N. J., and Henry Onderdonk, Jr., of Jamaica; additional information has been obtained, with which and from what has been gleaned from other writings, this genealogy has been compiled, which makes no preten­ sions of perfection, but only presents what has been within s To J~hn Leff~rts of Phibdelpbfa, I am indebted for the m;iin portiun of the information obtained of the Pennsylv:inia br:inch, for which he is entitled to the clanks of the family. IV.

The Great Prairie burns in the blood-red luster of sunset, which with full intensity, illuminates this unique theatre of nature. Here the wildness of arid desert blends with the smoother view of full green land mixed with raw, sandy stretches and scattered islands of trees tormented by the hot rays of the summer sun and lashed by the blizzards of severe winters. This country is open to the view. Surrounded by a level or slightly undulated plateau, it is a hopelessly infinite panorama of flatness on which are etched shining paths of streams framed by bushes and trees until finally the sight merges with a far away haze suggestive of the ramparts of mountain ranges. The most unforgettable moment on the prairie is the sunset. The rich variety of colors, thoughts and feelings creates memories of daybreak and nightfall on the prairie which will live forever in the mind.
