Excerpt from An Index to Printed Pedigrees, Contained in County and Local Histories, the Herald's Visitations, and in the More Important Genealogical Collections IN the autumn of 1863 I announced my intention to pub lish a volume on the Bibliography of Heraldry and Genealogy, and in the following spring, in Notes and Queries and in the Herald and Genealogist, I promised to add to it an Index to the Pedigrees contained in the County Histories, and other topographical works. Partly in consequence of the extent of the materials I have collected for that work, and partly on account of the produc tion of a hastily prepared compilation of a similar nature to the present Index, I have been compelled to postpone for a time the publication of the bibliographical manual, and to issue my Index as a separate work. In submitting it to the genealogical student, I can only express a hope that the tri ing errors which may have escaped notice, in over sixteen thousand references, in duplicate, will not militate against the general adoption of it as a guide to printed genealogies.
