Excerpt from Barksdale Family History and Genealogy: With Collateral Lines Six years ago, while visiting my brother, I came across an old copy Of the pamphlet on the Barksdale Family by Miss Hubert. With the idea of revising and bringing down to date my own line, principally for the benefit of my three young nieces, I began the necessary re? Search. My investigations soon became so involved with other lines that it was necessary to extend the scope of the work originally planned, and several members of the family prevailed upon me to endeavor to compile the complete history and genealogy of the entire family. The compilation Of a complete genealogy of a family of ten, or more, generations, including therein all of the female lines, is almost a lifetime work for a single individual and would require many volumes to encompass it. The within work is by no means a complete genealogy in this sense, nor is it claimed to be. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

First published in 1898, this comprehensive history was the first documented survey of a system that helped fugitive slaves escape from areas in the antebellum South to regions as far north as Canada. Comprising fifty years of research, the text includes interviews and excerpts from diaries, letters, biographies, memoirs, speeches, and a large number of other firsthand accounts. Together, they shed much light on the origins of a system that provided aid to runaway slaves, including the degree of formal organization within the movement, methods of procedure, geographical range, leadership roles, the effectiveness of Canadian settlements, and the attitudes of courts and communities toward former slaves.
