THIS BooK is an eftbrt to preserve the na1nes and some­ thing of the deeds of those who established the McVlure family in Au1erica. While the result is far from satisfac­ tory, I fee.l that I have rende1·ed to the name in general, and to my. own family in particular, a 1·eal service. The work i~ the product of vacation days ancl rare leisure 1noments, thrown together rather than carefully ar1·anged. It is the log cabin of our early ancestors rather than the modern 1nansion, to which I hope it wilJ in t,ime give place. While all with whom it has been my privilege to converse or correspond hav.e sb(nvn for the undertaking the greatest interest and concern, to whom I express my since1·e appre­ ciation, there are a nu1uber who have rendered special ser­ vice and whose nan1es I wish to 1nention in particular.

I dedicate this compilation to the spirit of freedom, civil and ecclesiastical, born in the sturdy, courageous Scots, who, like the "eagles of their craigs," were keen- sighted, strong and fearless. The spirit of democracy which at that distant time protested against autocracy of church and state, having the courage of its convic- tion, tried to find freedom in Ireland, and later found it in the United States. Many of these men as "younger sons" left home, friends and comforts to stand for what is shaking the whole world today (a hundred and fifty years later) to its foundation. Here this strong offspring of liberty today stands ready to help the Old World take its stand for the same r great principle—like David, having not the armor of Saul, but coming in the name of the Lord God of Israel, not to kill, but to protect the great brotherhood of man. PREFACE. I have never worshiped ancestors and think the old saying is often true: "Ancestry is like the potato—the best part under the ground." I am too democratic to wish to tack on to royalty, except royalty of character.

I took up the work where she laid it aside when she went home, February 21, 1887. It has been a long, tedious, but very pleasant work these many years. It was through information given by Mrs. Mary (Gilmor) Sterrett that it was possible to connect so much of the past with the present. Mrs. Sterrett, with others who have given valuable assis­ tance, has long ago gone home. Others have assisted and been much help in furthering the work. It was through information given by Mrs. Ruth (Hamilton) Keppel, daughter of Calvin Hamilton, that records have been found concerning Colonel Hance Hamilton, Sr., the real "Indian Fighter," the first Sheriff of York County, Pennsylvania. Our ancestors were among those people of Scotland who ac­ cepted the land grant of King James on condition they go into the rugged hills of Northern Ireland and cultivate the land. These people of Scotland never inter-married with the people of Ireland. King James gave them all of the Province of Ulster, Ireland, and they received the name of Scotch-Irish only in the United States to distinguish them from the Scotch and Irish that came into the country about the same time.
