Volume I records a revised record of the Gould and Talkington lines of the Hope Gould Robinson lineage. Altogether this has been the completion of a thirty-one year project, which has involved many miles of travel, endless correspondence, quests for lost relatives, a reexamination of history, and searches for lost documents and records. The work is still not complete, but it does provide a record that would have been lost in the annals of time. Within these family records are stories upon which some future family writer and historian could produce an epic on the westward movement and the fulfillment of the American dream.
