Beginning with a discussion of the McElroys in Scotland and Ireland, this
primarily is an account of their settlement in America and their expansion
throughout the eastern portion of the United States. There are individual
chapters on branches of the family in Kentucky, New York, Ohio, North Carolina
and most importantly, Pennsylvania.
Of particular interest to anyone researching this family is the collection of
nearly 30 family portraits from the advent of photography to the time of
publication (1901). This work is a true measure of what the 'family genealogist'
can accomplish, it is a wonderful repository of family information on primary
and related lies.
This CD consists of scans of the original book. This can be browsed,
enlarged and printed if required. Please note: it is not searchable.
