Book excerpt: Excerpt from A General History of the Burr Family in America: With a Genealogical Record From 1570 to 1878 Here are people in our time who treat the inquiries of the genealogist with indifference, and even with contempt. His researches seem to them a waste of time and energy. Interest in ancestors, love of family and kindred, those subtle questions of race, origin, even of life itself, which they involve, are quite beyond their comprehension. They live only in the present, and care nothing for the past and little for the future; for he who cares not whence he cometh, cares not whither he goeth.
