The fruit of thirteen years of research and over 120 different sources, this biographical dictionary is a convenient genealogical workbook for the researcher of the Underwood surname. Underwoods are listed alphabetically, and numbered for cross-referencing. All other surnames are indexed, making it very easy to find a particular person. Information in any given entry contains whatever data could be found, for example: Vital records, place of birth or residence, children, criminal escapades, and humorous tales from AL, IN, KS, KY, MO, NC, NE, OH, SC, SD, TX, VA, WV, and other states. Each entry also contains a reference source. The compiler has contacted many other researchers of the Underwood surname who have generously shared their work and are named in the List of Sources for the reader's further reference. Information has been gathered from many other family histories, some of which are now out of print, from the LDS Family History Library, Military records, the D.A.R. Library in Washington, D.C., the National Archives branch in San Bruno, CA, old newspapers, and numerous family genealogists.
