Mrs. Elizabeth Rixford, the author of the acclaimed genealogy "Families Directly Descended from All the Royal Families in Europe (495 to 1932) and Mayflower Descendants," in this more recent work attempts to trace all branches of direct maternal and paternal lines of her own family and the main branches of her husband's family, namely: Rixford, Hawkins, Wilson, Flint, Cutting, Hinds, Cook and Cushman. Moreover, she identifies and outlines her four "Mayflower" lines, two lines to the National Society Founders and Patriots of America, three lines to the Huguenot Society, ten lines to the DAR, three lines to the United States Daughters of 1812, forty-seven lines to the Colonial Daughters of the 17th Century, and 140 supplemental lines to the National Society Daughters of the American Colonists in Vermont. In all, Mrs. Rixford addresses more than 200 family lines, consisting of more than 5,000 individuals. Bound with "Three Hundred Colonial Ancestors and War Service: Their Part in Making American History from 495 to 1934, are the Supplements I, II, II concluded and, for the first time, Supplement IV." This work also includes a 24 page index.
