Magna Charta Barons and Their Descendants
A successor to the 1898 work "The Magna Charta Barons and Their American Descendants," the pedigrees herein are of the members of the Order of Runnemede in 1915--in effect, a second "yearbook" of the Order. Since pedigrees were dropped and added as the membership of the Order changed, this work stands by itself and does not supersede the 1898 volume. Nearly 200 pages are devoted to pedigrees of the members, which are grouped under the following names: Abbott, Allyn, Aston, Bernard, Bevan, Booth, Brooke, Bruen, Bulkeley, Byrd, Cadwalader, Calvert, Carter, Chauncey, Chichester, Claiborne, Claypool, Clayton, Daubeney, Digges, Drake, Dundas, Evans, Fauntleroy, Fenwick, Fleete, Foulke, Gordon, Gorsuch, Haynes, Henry, Humfrey, Irvine, Lambert, Lawrence, Leete, Lindsay, Lloyd, Lyman, Lynde, MacGehee, McIntosh, Montgomery, Norton, O'Carroll, Owen, Reade, Rose, Saltonstall, Scott, Sherman, Skipwith, Spotswood, Stewart, Sullivan, Throckmorton, Warren, Washington, West, Wetherill, Whiting, Wilkinson, Williams, Willis, Willoughby, Winthrop, Witherspoon, Woodhull, and Wyatt.

Surprising as it may seem, it is nevertheless the fact, that there is no other act of similar importance pertaining to any country about which so little has been written and so little is generally known. Sir William Blackstone has said that "there is none that has been transmitted down to us with less accuracy and historical ...
The Magna Charta Barons and Their American Descendants
This is a standard work on Americans claiming lineal descent from the Magna Charta Barons. The pedigrees referred to in the sub-title of the book pertain to the founders and members of the Order of Runnemede at the time the book was originally published (1898). The main body of the work, the pedigrees of the founders, is preceded by a history of the Magna Charta of 1215; by lists of the Magna Charta Barons; and by biographies of the Sureties (the twenty-five barons designated to enforce the Magna Charta).
