Excerpt from Levering Family: History and Genealogy It is an aggregation of personal annals and sketches, carefully woven, woof and warp, that makes a family history. History is fact; other than fact is not history. The collection of family events is not fiction, nor is it fulsome epitaph, though some inflated persons, whose plebeian origin may be seen by a glance backward, without climbing a hill, or even a ladder, would have family dignity emphasized.
