Excerpt from The County Families of the United Kingdom, or Royal Manual of the Titled and Untitled Aristocracy of Great Britain and Ireland: Containing a Brief Notice of the Descent, Birth, Marriage, Education, and Appointments of Each Person, His Heir Apparent or Presumptive, as Also a Record of the Offices Which He Has Hitherto Held IT is impossible for me to send forth to the public this work - the result of more than two lyears' constant labour and research - Without acknowledging, in terins of gratitude, the kind and generous assistance which I have received, from almost every quarter, in answer to the circulars Which I have issued to the pre sent representatives of the highest families in the three kingdoms, Whether numbered among the 'titled' or the 'untitled' aristocracy, Who, With few exceptions, have freely communicated to me'the information Which I requested at their hands. Here and there, it is true, that my applications have been met With a refusal on the part of those Who were most nearly interested 3 but even in these cases I have endeavoured to keep faith With the public, by instituting private inquiries among local friends and correspondents, and by consulting a large library of useful books of reference. By these means I have been enabled to produce a volume which, in spite of numerous imperfections, embraces the Whole of the titled, and by far the largest portion of the untitled aristocracy of the three kingdoms, and may, therefore, fairly lay claim to be styled, in common parlance, a Dictionary of the Upper Ten Thousand.'
