Hilwig ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Rangelands and dissertations have much in common. Both require a significant amount of time to navigate. Both also have their fair share of dangers, whether they take the form of a rattlesnake, a split infinitive, or an ardent defender of a particular range claim. Surviving these hazards demands individuality and companionship. Writing a dissertation can be as lonely as traversing a sagebrush plain, but the process is full of watering holes, colleagues, and close friends that can help one stay on the trail. Traveling across the western range requires money as well as water, and I am grateful to the financial support provided by the Department of History, Graduate College, and Graduate Student Senate at the University of Oklahoma. Grants and fellowships provided by the American Heritage Center at the University of Wyoming, the Charles Redd Center for Western Studies at Brigham Young University, the Oklahoma Chapter of the National Society of the Colonial Dames of America, and the Wyoming State Historical Society further sustained this project.

DESCENDANTS OF JOHN LEAVITT THE IMMIGRANT THROUGH HIS SON, ISRAEL AND LYDIA JACKSON Printed in U.S. A. by the EVANS PRINTING CO. CONCORD, N. H. Preface I have faithfully copied data, pertaining to Leavitts, for more than twenty years, I have tried to secure correct dates of family records but finding dissimilarity in the records, errors in census reports, vital sta­ tistics, town reports, tombstones, and even family Bibles, it is impos­ sible to secure absolutely authentic data in a work of substantial quantity. I do not claim to be always correct and will gladly correct any errors. I do believe my work to be as correct as is humanly possible from existing sources. Relatives, a tremendous task is completed more for love of you than for any selfish desire. However, I enjoyed the work immensely. I gained the acquaintance of hundreds of lovely "Leavitts," having corre­ sponded with descendants in all but one state of the Union, and in foreign countries. When I reach Heaven I am sure there will be a host of Leavitts awaiting my arrival. Please consider this preface a letter direct from me to you, my thou­ sands of relatives! I desire to thank every one who so kindly helped and especially do I thank several who contributed the proceeds of many years' labor.
