    The Provincial Councillors of Pennsylvania
    belongs in every American genealogical library because it covers many of the 
    leading families of the mid-Atlantic region and includes the entire progeny of 
    the councillors–including daughters of daughters of daughters, sons of sons of 
    sons, cadet branches who moved west, and English, French, German and other 
    foreign descendants. Treated especially well are the full progenies then known 
    of several royally descended founders of the Province–the Welsh Deputy Governor 
    Thomas and Mary (Jones) Lloyd, plus John Cadwalader, and the Scottish James 
    Logan (plus the mostly Pennsylvania progeny of James Tilghman, son of the 
    immigrant Richard of Maryland). Also covered are all descendants of Edward 
    Shippen (mostly Winthrop descendants via Grosses of Boston), who include the 
    family of traitor Benedict Arnold and the also royally descended Burds of 
    Philadelphia, plus Willings, Binghams, Clymers, Francises, Bayards of Delaware, 
    and Byrds of Virginia. Lloyd descendants include many of the leading Quaker and 
    Episcopal families of Philadelphia–Moores, Whartons, Pembertons, Morrises, plus 
    (under son-in-law Samuel Preston) Carpenters, Ellets, and Wistars. Logan 
    descendants include Fishers, Wisters, Drinkers, and Biddles.
