In the list of references, several volumes will be found covering the GORDON Families of America. Practically all of these works are copyrighted and for that reason the material found therein was not included in this volume.
All of the volumes mentioned will be found in the Library of Congress, most of them will be found in the Libraries of all Genealogical and Historical Societies, and some of them may be found in the Public Libraries of the large cities.
It is suggested in the introduction that the writer and his associates will be glad to co-operate with any members of the GORDON family who may be interested in gathering the necessary material for and publishing a Genealogy of the GORDON Families in the United States.
