Excerpt from Genealogy of the Fell Family in America Descended From Joseph Fell, Who Settled in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, 1705: With Some Account of the Family Remaining in England, &C The original design of this work was to preserve in manuscript, a history of the Fell Family in America, so far as attainable after a lapse of almost two centuries; to be accessible to any who might wish to gain information therefrom. The difficulty of obtaining such history was in creasing every year, and much of it was likely to pass into oblivion, if not collected and written out by some one. This work has been wholly a labor of love and in communicating with the various branches of our very large and widely scattered family, I have generally been met with such marked cordiality and kindness, and many to whom I have applied for information, have contributed so largely, that I now feel the history is scarcely my own; and, although incomplete in many parts, at the earnest solicitation of many relatives, I have consented to its publication.
