Memorials of the Chaunceys: Including President Chauncy, His Ancestors and Descendants (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from Memorials of the Chaunceys: Including President Chauncy, His Ancestors and Descendants

The following memorials of the Chaunceys owe their collection to an affectionate regard for the virtues of the family. It has been thought that these virtues ought to be rescued from encroaching oblivion, and placed on record for future contemplation. Many of the Chaun ceys were burning and shining lights in their day, and multitudes rejoiced in their light. To that light, still shining in their sepulchres, this book may serve to guide the living.
