Our Predecessors And Their Descendants by Robert Ludlow Fowler is a privately printed, family?centered work that collects sketches of the writer’s ancestors and their descendants in America. The volume traces the Fowler line from early colonial settlers in New England and New York through a web of allied families—Powell, Sebring, Ludlow, Orso, Rumsey, and others—presenting biographical notes, portraits, obituaries, land records, and genealogical data. Rather than a formal scholarly genealogy, it is a narrative compilation intended for descendants, offering context about trans?Atlantic migration, Dutch and English colonization, and the social history of Long Island, Brooklyn, and the Hudson Valley. The author acknowledges sources such as Ruttenber’s History of Newburgh and Orange County and explains a plan that treats each great?grandparent as a stirps of descent, weaving together personal memory, archived documents, and public records to illustrate how these families formed a single American lineage. The book blends family lore with historical detail, showcasing notable ancestors and their communities while emphasizing the shared American heritage of its subjects.
