Excerpt from Genealogy of the Fitts or Fitz Family in America

Tins book is the fruit of many years of extended investigation and patient research. Those only who have engaged in similar pur suits can be aware of the untold labor required to. Collect and systema tize the jumbled materials for a volume like this. The driblets have been called here and there from state, county, town, parish, church and family records, and from an extended correspondence with individuals who were intimately connected with particular branches of the family. To the many valued friends who have assisted in the enterprize grate ful acknowledgments are tendered.

It is confidently felt that while unimportant inaccuracies may ap pear, the genealogy as a whole is perfectly reliable. This assertion is made in full view of the consideration that many persons who will peruse these pages have much better means of information concerning some families than can reasonably be expected from the writer. Those who are competent to detect blemishes will, it is hoped, make due al lowance should they be found, while they remember it is much easier to find fault with the work than to do it better. It is well nigh imposo sible to produce a publication of this kind which shall be entirely free from imperfections. A certain author defines all history to be merely an approximation towards truth. Without endorsing fully this humiliating statement, yet, when the imperfection of everything human is considered, it must be admitted the sentiment has some foundation in fact. There doubtless are omissions'in the book though it includes, so far as could be obtained, every person of the name in its varied orthography throughout the United States. And there are probably some mistakes since it is impossible at this late day to prepare gene alogical statistics with perfect accuracy. Honest George Dyer. A clas sical scholar and writer of the last generation whose long life of literary toil exemplified the extreme care he eulogizes, asks enthusias tically, Who can calculate on the consequence of a single daze, some times to an individual. Sometimes to a family, and sometimes evento the public 2 if under the circumstances, the depravity of figures has represented some individuals as born a century or two out of time, or forced them into incongruous marriages, or prematurely consigned them to the shades, they can console themselves with the reflection that they are at liberty still to live on as though no such mishap had occurred.
