This book is the result of years of research at courthouses and libraries in Virginia and elsewhere. It is extensively documented with both embedded sources and footnotes, and is fully indexed. There is an excursus on the HOOPER family which includes the CABELL and MAYO cousins, relatives of the STINSONs.

"Mr. Curwen was sixty years old when he quitted the rebellious colonies, to seek England for that liberty of opinion which the Independent party in his own country refused ... he remained in exile for several years, moving back to his former home in Salem when he was sixty-nine, but without resuming his judicial functions. He lived there until his death at age eighty-six."--The Monthly Review, 1843.
