Excerpt from A Complete System of Family Registration

The Family Register should be regarded by every one as indispensably necessary; and it deserves to be placed in a volume and to be kept sacred by itself, and not constantly exposed to injury nor loss like the ordinary books of the family. To a perfect register of this kind has been given a more extended signification than the mere record of the birth, marriage, and death of one's own children, or immediate family, though these should form an indispensable part of it. It should be a genealogical memorial, and embrace, as far as is possible in one volume, such a record of all the branches of the family, both direct and collateral, from the earliest ancestor who can be ascertained. It should also contain such other facts and circumstances as may be deemed worthy of record, to illustrate their own progressive history and that of their families, and the laws of human life - its reproduction, development, and decay, which are applicable to them, their connexions, the society, or the place, where they may have dwelt. This can easily be done on the plan proposed in the following register.
