Loring Genealogy Compiled From the Chronicles or Ancestral Records Of James Speare Loring From His Original Manuscript in Possession of the New Manuscripts of John Arthur Loring and From
Author: Charles Henry Pope

Excerpt from Loring Genealogy: Compiled From "the Chronicles or Ancestral Records" Of James Speare Loring, From His Original Manuscript in Possession of the New England Historic Genealogical Society, by Permission; From the Manuscripts of John Arthur Loring, and From Many Other Sources — This Genealogy has quite a history. About the year 1850 a B... more »oston bookseller and publisher, James Speare Loring, began to gather items of interes about Lorings, and in process of time built up a history of the descendants of Deacon Thomas Loring, who came from England to America in 1634, writing out the records of each of the deacon's four sons and carrying down the lines separately. Not completing it as he wished, at his death in 1888 he bequeathed his manuscript to the New England Historic Genealogical Society, by whose permission we have published it. Some time later Justice William Caleb Loring, of Boston, borrowed the manuscript and had it typewritten and bound in book form; and it resumed its place on the shelves of the Society. Afterward John Arthur Loring, master printer, of Springfield, borrowed one of the copies Justice Loring had made and indexed it very fully - typewritten - and gave the volume back again for those interested to peruse. But he went further; taking names of Lorings from advertisements, letterheads and public prints, in addition to his own very wide circle of relations of the blood, he revised the work of James Speare Loring and did a very fine piece of compilation, extending the records very much. When he found his health failing he hastened eagerly to complete the work, and left it in what seemed to him a stage very near the point of publication. His self-denying labors for the family came to an end in 1906, and a decade passed before his dreams came true. Then Charles Henry Pope was informed of the state of the Book of the Lorings and was asked to take hold of the enterprise.
