Ebook A Memoir of a Portion of the Bolling Family in England and Virginia

To the courtesy of Judge R., I am indebted for the use of the ms. And the privilege of printing a small number of copies; and by the kindness of gentlemen well informed in the history of our State, I am enabled to add, in the notes, much informa tion which I am satisfied will be acceptable and instructive to all who are interested in such studies. Having been prohibited from using their names in connection with the work, I cannot express my obligations in a more definite manner. To Mr. Thomas Bolling, of Bolling Hall, to Mr. Richard M. Bolling, now of Baltimore, and to Mr. H. Q. Holliday, of of Bolling's Island, I am indebted for the use of the family por traits and coat of arms, (now kept at the last named place,) and the privilege of having them photographed. It is a matter of deep regret, that no portrait of Mr. Robert Bolling, the author of the Memoir, is in existence.
