Excerpt from Histoical Notes on Wallington: Of Which the Substance Was Given in a Lecture at Wallington Schools in 1870; With Additions to the Present Time The origin of this compilation appears on the Title-page. Indulging a natural curiosity as to the past in the history of his Parish, the compiler collected notes, to divert some of his less busy hours. The County Histories supplied abundant material. Then arose the idea of a Lecture on the subject, in the Parish Schoolroom, at our Winter Evening Entertainments. Therefore to the enumeration of individuals and families, comments were added to elucidate the cotemporary events, in which some of those connected with Wallington played a part. What then might appear to some only digressions, had for their Object the supplying of that necessary information. Which the generality have no opportunity to acquire; while it was hoped that thus would be enlarged the sympathy which each Should feel as a unit of the great Commonwealth. The Lecture, however, furnished entertainment for one evening. But when My Garden, with its charming illustrations, had seen the light, there arose a desire to know-more of Wallington.
