Joseph Lyons Ewing Sketches of the Families of Thomas Ewing and Mary Maskell, William Ewing and Eleanor Thompson, James Ewing and Eleanor Rhea, and Their Descendants

Annotation

Whilst the greatest effort has been made to ensure the quality of this text, due to the historical nature of this content, in some rare cases there may be minor issues with legibility. In addition to its wealth of authentic genealogical data our book contains many related facts of history. Some of these will be found in connected foot notes and appendices, and will certainly add value and interest to our production. The writer claims nothing as a historian, but being a son (the fifth living) of James Henry and Eleanor Jane Ewing, both of whose direct ancestral and many collateral lines, together with their posterity are here outlined and described; and since by a good Providence he has been transferred from his place of nativity in Western Penn sylvania and established in new surroundings in Southern New Jersey where his maternal ancestry in Thomas Ewing from Ireland settled and long lived, it seems but natural that he should take a leading part in making the family history herein contained, a permanent treasure. Hence to the task.
