Customer Reviews
This is a priceless reference for how the Potts family has married, buried, been born and worked with the world and each other. It is not so much about a huge biography of each person due to 29,000 plus surnames in the index, but about the network that connects us all through centuries and continents. If you want to play celebrity spotting, it includes ties to known leaders, industrial leaders, innovators, entertainers, politicians, authors, and even the founder of the Smothsonian, while also acknowledging all the normal people in between, the salesmen and educators and herders and small children. The book is based on classic 19th century sources now in the public domain, and offered in good faith to help answer questions about who is linked to who, while correcting details of needed to the best of the compilers ability. The index is critical to help locate information in the hard copy.
