T
he Compendium of  American Genealogy
is the  most important collection of American lineage records ever published, easily  deserving its reputation (as well as its subtitle) as the genealogical  encyclopedia of the first families of America. Originally a project of Marquis's  Who's Who in America, though later taken under the wing of the Institute of  American Genealogy, the Compendium was the brainchild of Frederick A. Virkus,  who guided its publication for more than two decades with the express purpose of  producing a standard genealogical history of the United States.
In keeping with its stated aim, the Compendium contains the lineage  records of the first families of America, with records extending in both male  and female lines from the earliest-known immigrant ancestor to the then  (1925-1942) living subject of the record. According to the first census there  were about 650,000 families living in the United States in 1790, practically  every one of which was of colonial or Revolutionary stock and thus entitled to  be numbered among America's "First Families." Every lineage in the Compendium,  therefore, spans at least eight or nine generations. While not all families are  represented, almost every name distinguished in any way in the early history of  the country will be found within its pages.
The Compendium was compiled largely from lineage records and manuscript  genealogies submitted by individuals selected for inclusion, many illustrated  with photographs, portraits, and coats of arms. Each record was checked and  edited, then typed up in the form of a "proof" and returned to the submitter for  final review before ultimately being printed in one of the volumes. Thus  prepared at great expense of time and labor, and with painstaking care, the  seven massive volumes of the Compendium contain more than 54,000 lineage  records, with indexes listing upwards of 425,000 names, making it, without  doubt, the first reference and research source in American genealogy. While  every genealogical line as published can scarcely be said to be correct, it  still stands as the major published record of American ancestry and forms a  complete genealogical library in itself.
Volume VII of Virkus’s
acclaimed
“Compendium” contains portraits, about 7,800 lineage records, and more than  60,000 names in the index.
