The Plymouth branch, the Connecticut branch, and the Manhattan branch of the Churchill family constitute the three divisions of this work, followed by an appendix of names unconnected with the above lines, and preceded by Mr. Bodge’s preface which concludes with “The Churchill Family in England.” Mr. Bodge explains that, owing to the death of the compilers, the task of preparing their collections for the press was left to him, a labor which, as would be expected, he has ably performed. The plan on which the genealogy is arranged is that of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, in its organ, the “Register,” by means of which the immense mass of notes and correspondence entrusted to Mr. Bodge have assumed the lucid order which alone renders a genealogy serviceable. There is a most carefully prepared index of nearly ninety pages. The illustrations are fine, chiefly portraits. The book is printed on good paper and bound in black cloth. * * * * * GENEALOGICAL SKETCHES OF THE WOODBURY FAMILY, ITS INTERMARRIAGES AND CONNECTIONS. By CHARLES LEVI WOODBURY. Edited by his sister, E. C. D. O. WOODBURY, Manchester, N. H.: Printed by the JOHN B. CLARKE CO., 1904. Square 4to. pp. 251. Ill. The sketches are introduced by a memoir of Judge Woodbury, the compiler. The genealogical value of the work is apparent from the fact that, beside the Woodbury pedigree, it includes those of such families as the Quincys, the Palgraves, the Wendells, the Clapps, the De Kays, the Willetts, the Perkinses, and others. Though left unfinished and inaccessible at Judge Woodbury’s death, the sketches are nevertheless presented here in a nearly completed form, though it has been found impossible to fill omissions occasioned by the loss of some of the original papers. The mental energy, the skill and the humor characteristic of the compiler will be recognized in these pages, which, though not intended for the public, will be attractive to many outside of the readers for whom they were designed. Paper, print and binding are good. There is no index. *** REPLIES. 3. _a._ MAVERICK—There is no absolute proof that Moses Maverick was son of Rev. John and brother of Samuel, but the editor of this department (a descendant of Moses) is satisfied that Rev. John Maverick was father of Moses, Samuel, Antipas and Silas, notwithstanding what Palfrey and Savage wrote to the contrary.
