Old readers of the Religious Herald
will remember that many years ago Dr.
Jeter published in that paper an article
on THE First Families in Virginia That
article was written in reply to some state
ments of the Northern papers. DR. Jeter
mentioned no names. but asserted that
there We're families in Virginia of truly
noble birth, though he added, that his
own family did not belong to the aristo-
cratic class. 1t Is to be hoped that all
genealogists may initiate the reverend
Doctors sincerity. There has never been
any doubt of the great moral and INTEL
lectual superiority of the Jcter family.

Tinslev-A Mistake,

Several months ago there appeared in
the Genealogical Column an absolutely
correct list of the daughters of Benja-
min Harrison, Sr., and his wife, Anne
Carter. There was also a perfectly cor
rect list of the daughters of Benjamin
Harrison, Jr., the signer OF the Declara-
ton of Independence. Later n commune
cation signed IL was published in the
column. in which HI" stated that Benja-
min Harrison, sr., had daughter. Eliza
beth, who married a Mr.. Tinsley. VIII
III" tell us where any old records can
be found which will prove such mar
riage? The Elizabeth Harrison who mar
ried Mr.. Tinsley could not have been q
descendant of Benjamin Harrison, Sr
and Anne Carter.
A correct list of their children and more
remote descendants can be found on the
Carter family tree. This list is taken
from old records. No descendant of Ben
iamin Harrison and Anne Carter ever
married a Tinsley. Perhaps daughter
of one of the brothers of BENJAMIN Har-
rison, ST., may have married a Mr.. Tins
Icy. The old records of the Harrison
family would show IL this is fact

also said they had arms. I would like to
know by whom these arms were con-
ferred originally. and how did they gain
the right to them. SUBSCRIBER"
Columbia, S. G.
1t is difficult matter to get con-
tinuous record of any family from the
landing of the immigrant to the present
time, unless the record has been kept
by the family and handed down. In
England 1t is not so difficult, for there the
family of each peer is strictly recorded
and handed down in the Herald's College
OF Arms.
The Overton arms were no doubt be-
slowed by the King upon some member
OF the family for prowess in battle or
some particular service, the right to which
becomes perpetual to their descendants.
