Excerpt from Genealogy of the Parthemore Family: 1744-1885 After many months of anxiety and labor, traveling many miles in cars, private conveyance, and on foot, delving among old church records and public documents. Wander ing into old grave-yards, through briars and weeds, this biographical and genealogical history is the result. Often have we wished that it might have fallen to the lot of some abler writer to perform the work. But such as it is we give it to the family. Our labor has been conscientiously performed.
