The genealogical materials include summaries compiled by the Media Research Center on the names and families of Glasier, Bosworth, and Strong; a narrative on the descendants of Sir Saire de Quincy, an English baron in 1200; and a photostat copy of an oversized genealogical chart submitted in application for membership in the Colonial Dames of America by Helen Thompson Seurry tracing her ancestry to de Quincy. Mrs. Seurry's grandmother was Susan Glasier King (1829-1906).
