Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Further Genealogical Notes on the Tyrrell-Terrell Family of Virginia and Its English and Norman-French Progenitors
Some time after the issue of the little pamphlet above referred to, the author learned of the publication in Eng land in 1904 of a very authentic and complete history of the Tyrrell family, compiled by Joseph Henry Tyrrell, of Castleknock, Queen's Road, Twickenham, England. This book was sent for and was found to 'be one of the most thoroughly prepared genealogical histories of a family ever issued. Correspondence was at once opened with Mr. Tyrrell, the English author of this book, and as a result of this correspondence, which has gone on now for over a year, and from a careful study of the pedigrees contained in this English history of the family, the author of this little pamphlet has deemed it expedient to issue a second edition, in order to correct many errors which were found to exist in his first edition and to make many important additions which he first learned of through the more elab orate history above referred to. During the correspondence with Mr. Tyrrell, the English historian of the family, he very kindly annotated with valuable notes the pamphlet which had been published by the author in 1907, makingmany little corrections in the historical data, and many val uable suggestions as to important facts hitherto unknown by the author. In the following pages no attempt will be made to give anything 'but a brief resumé of the exceedingly interesting matter contained in this rare history prepared in England; it is recommended, however, that those mem bers of the family who are desirous of making more elab orate researches into the history of this old family should send to Mr. Tyrrell and obtain a copy of his book while the limited edition of it lasts. Only one hundred copies were published, and while any of the edition lasts it can be obtained by sending two pounds, four shillings to Mr. Tyrrell at the address given above.
