Excerpt from A Genealogical Deduction of the Family of Rose of Kilravock: With Illustrative Documents From the Family Papers, and Notes I have also thought it desirable to avoid having recourse to other sources for the illustration of the memoirs of a private family, of little public or historical importance and to make the experiment how far the contents of one private charter-room could throw light on the state of the country, its land, its population, their habits, customs, feelings, manners, the growth and progress of civilization. How I have succeeded in these objects, I feel myself not well qualified to judge, and I am not aware that any similar work has been attempted in Scotland. It cannot be expected that such a collection should be popular with those who take no interest in genealogy and law antiquities, nor find a charm in the traces of old customs and obsolete modes of life. But it may be doubted whether the more extended lucubrations of an editor would secure it a wider popularity with that large class; while they might lower its value with those who demand only authentic materials in a work like the present.
