Graduates of the College of the Holy Cross, Worcester, Mass., 1849-1889 GRADUATES m imm OF THE (tHIVERSITY OF ILLIiiOIS COLLEGE OF THE HOLY CROSS WORCESTER, MASS., 1849-1889 GR.A DU ATES OF 11 IK COLLEGE OF THE HOL! CROSS, WORCESTER, MASS., 1849-1889. ^RQH WOIiCESTEK: PRESS OF CHARLES HAMILTON. No. 311 Main Street. 1890. ^f- '.I-? ; It is the intention of the College to publish within the three years that remain before the semi-centennial celebration, several classified lists of its Students : I. Graduates ; II. Alumni ; III. Matriculates. The precedence is justly given to those who have remained to carry off baccalaureate honors. In reviewing the ranks drawn up in this first catalogue, we cannot fail to congratulate ourselves on the number—an average of ten Graduates per annum—as well as on the prominence in the professions that many have achieved. The deep founda- tions intended to be laid in our system of education, have in most cases reared no mean and inadequate superstructure : the secular avocations point to some of our collegians as their decus et columen, and in the Church, has not the venerable summit of the mitre been attained? When, therefore, our Jubilee arrives in '93, Holy Cross may without conceit or arrogance go to the archives of Catholic American history, and demand more than a mere registry of narne for its five hundred Graduates. Our undergraduates turning over this family record, will feel the stimulus of loftier aspiration and more strenuous endeavor they will consider that if with the youthful spirits of the Iliad they desire to be better than their fathers, they will have no easy task to perform. Whilst for the living Graduates this roll will bring back pleasant reminiscences and promote an affection- ate interest in classes and individuals, for the deceased it may prove a more o^rateful memorial than the inscription on cold IV. marble. For shall we not in their instance elevate the prompt- ing of nature towards the dead which Tacitus observed in the primitive races of the North, honestum est viris meminisse^ into the loving Catholic suffrage of a memento ? In thanking all for their kind response to the circular, and for the information so promptly and cheerfully furnished, we would bespeak similar action in our future inquiries. In particular, Richard H. Mooney, A. M., the energetic Secretary of the Alumni Association, has put us under obligations for material aid derived from his carefully kept records. If a line be sent us immediately, whilst the matter is fresh in the mind, the vacancies that will be noticed after names, especially the date and place of death, will disappear in the next issue.

    THE FAMILY OF EARLY Which settled upon the Eastern Shore of Virginia AND ITS CONNECTION WITH OTHER FAMILIES BY R.H. EARLY LYNCHBURG, VIRGINIA 1920 6 91 COPYRIGHT 1920 BY RUTH H. EARLY PRESS OF BROWN-MORRISON CO. LYNCHBURG, VA. CADET SAMUEL HENRY EARLY JR., from a portrait. DEDICATED TO THE MEMORY OF CAPTAIN SAMUEL. HENRY EARLY. "A lively desire of knowing and recording our ancestors so gen­ erally prevails that it must depend on the influence of some common principle in the minds of men. We seem to have lived in the persons of our forefathers; it is the labor and reward of vanity to extend the term of this ideal longevity. Our imagination is always active to enlarge the narrow circle in which nature has confined us. We fill up the silent vacancy that precedes our birth by associating ourselves to the authors of our existence." EDWARD GIBBON. PREFACE The custom of recording genealogies is many centuries old, as witness the generations chronicled in the Scriptures, showing its importance in the estimation of the ancients. Later nations have also provided for the preservation of family history. There are at the public record office in Chancery Lane, London, twenty-six miles of shelves containing millions upon mil­ lions of documents methodically arranged, so that if you have the necessary facts to work on, you may trace family history generation by generation. Among the people who have observed the custom ( which has a bearing upon nation and individual) are the Irish, who incorporated it in their system of government. In the preface to the 2nd series of his "Irish Pedigrees," O'Hart says that to the end of the 16th century, or as long as the Tanist Law remained in force in Ireland, collections of authentic pedigrees existed; in one or other of which was carefully registered the birth of every member of a sept, poor as well as rich, and by which was determined the portion of land to he allotted for the sustenance of each head of a family and of those dependant on him.

' TO THE READER. THE Annual Minutes of the Conferences of the Metho<list Episcopal Church ,· ...: .. '. I contain the statistics of the church in detail. They are therefore both en· I ·: tcrtaining and useful. All who feel an interest in the prosperity of Methodism •;. in this country derive much satisfaction from perusing these documents; and, as a source of authentic information respecting many things connected with the history, polity, and usages of the church, they are inJispensabh~. But being published in pamphlet form, they are liable to be lost ; anJ it requires no small trouble, when a. consecutive series is needed for any purpose, to procure one. For these reasons the idea of publishing them in a v<>lume was early conceived by John Dickins, first book agent in this country, who, in 1794, issued a volume embracing all the Minutes from the commencement of Methodism in America, a period of about twenty-one or twenty-two years. In 1813 a volume was published by D. Hitt and 'f. Ware, book agents. But this work is out of print, and the de&ire of many to have the whole from the commencement to the present period seems to call for the publication now offered.
