Excerpt from History and Genealogy of the Eastman Family of America Genealogy has been defined as an account or history of the descent of a person or family from an ancestor; the enumeration of ancestors and their children in natural order of succession. But it is sometimes asked, Of what use is it? The question might with almost equal propriety be asked con cerning the kindred sciences of history and biography, for if there is utility in preserving a record of events, or of the life and character of individuals, then science which embraces, as it is now understood and practiced, in a considerable degree both these features, must also be interesting and profitable. Our ancestors, the early founders of New England, were a reverent, conscientious and industrious people, and a consider ation of their lives, their hardships and their achievements, cannot fail of proving salutary. It is both a natural and honorable ambition on the part of any man to have his gene alogy traced, but unfortunately there are some who cannot see the necessity or desirableness of having their pedigrees ascertained, or of preserving any papers or documents bear ing upon them, that they may have their descent defined and arranged in authentic genealogical order. Most people appear content with mere traditionary details of their lineage, without being at the pains to authenticate them by reference to proper records or regular genealogical authorities. And to show the apathy some have, the author will state that he has repeatedly sent self-addressed stamped envelopes for information, and to this day no reply has been received. But he will say in addition, and to their credit, that the Eastmans, as a general thing, have taken a good deal of interest in the work.
