Book Description
Excerpt from Historical and Descriptive Notices of Droylsden: Past and Present It has long been my earnest desire to publish an historical and descriptive account of Droylsden, a place now endeared to me by many pleasant associations, which have sprung up during a residence of more than twelve years. Unfortunately for this fancy, Droylsden has scarcely been named at all by any of our local topographers or county historians; yet, though more than ordinary difficulties had to be encountered, an attempt has been made to record, in a popular and entertaining style, the past annals of the township, and to illustrate the manners, customs, and superstitions of its inhabitants. With this design in view, and for the purpose of investing the locality with as much antiquarian and historical interest as possible, no opportunity has been omitted of eliciting information from either books, MSS., or aged inhabitants. Pains have been taken, even at the risk of repetition, to render each subject as complete and independent as possible, and also to avoid the tedium consequent on dates and matter-of-fact details. Still, in every case where a likelihood seemed to exist of disputes arising hereafter, the date has been given, though after collation and inquiry where conflicting statements existed. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at www.forgottenbooks.com This book is a reproduction of an important historical work. Forgotten Books uses state-of-the-art technology to digitally reconstruct the work, preserving the original format whilst repairing imperfections present in the aged copy.
