Description
Excerpt from The Hardys of Barbon: And Some Other Westmorland Statesmen: Their Kith, Kin and Childer
Oved by a very tri?ing occasion some thirty years ago I set out to discover what connection, if any, existed between my ancestors in the male line and a certain coat of arms. The enquiry soon resolved itself into the tracing upwards of a pedigree which our oldest family traditions carried no further back than the latter part of the eighteenth century, and in the result gave a fairly decided answer - in the negative to the question of armorial bearings. But at the same time it revealed unexpectedly an outline of family history going back to early Tudor times; and this, put into the shape of a pedigree with bare references to dates and authorities and a few explanatory notes, was printed privately in 1888 as a matter of purely family interest.
