History And Genealogy Of The Espy Family In America Classic Reprint

Excerpt from History and Genealogy of the Espy Family in America My father, Stephen' Barlow Espy, left Pennsylvania for Fort Madison, Iowa, then the far west, in 1846. At the time of his death I was a small child, and never knew any of the Espys, except the family of my uncle, Thos. S. Espy, and they too, grew up far from the parent stock. Naturally I was both ignorant of, and curious about my ancestry. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
