"My father, Dr. Samuel Bell was adopted when an infant by his
Uncle Dr. Samuel Bell. of Dublin, Ireland, he was named for him,
his father died when he was very young, his Uncle was a very
wealthy man and fully able to give him every advantage in
education and his profession, which he did. He was educated at
Old Trinity College, Dublin, and also received all other
advantages in medicine as he was a student in that branch for
eight years and seemed to thoroughly understand all its
technicalities. From what I have heard, his family were from
Scotland, his mother was scotch, though Bell is an English name.
My Father displeased his Uncle by marrying sooner than he wanted
him, and therefore lost his interest in his wealth, he never
sought to be reconciled. A few weeks before his death, Brother
Henry was looking over his papers, and receiving directions
about them, among them was the will of the late lord Kennedy, of
Scotland, he told Brother Henry that he was his descendant. Only
one other time do I remember of his mentioning it, he met a Dr.
Fernedy of Scotch descent, but he had never heard of Lord
Kennedy, so he knew that he was not a relative.
My father once told me when I was making inquiries about his
family, he said remember, "Honor and Fame from no condition
rise, act well your part, there all the honor lies".
The family had their court of arms which was a large bell with
small bells around it. I did not learn the motto. I also learned
that the other side was a hand and dagger, I suppose the
Kennedy. Addie Hale said, she and her mother traced it out, I
suppose that they had a relic to go by.
My father seemed to want his children to depend entirely on
their own worth. I have thought that father was made unhappy by
his Uncle's displeasure. He had only one child a daughter, and
when she married he divided his wealth with which as spent on a
profligate husband, and remainder of wealth inherited by their
son, equally as unworthy.
Uncle CoIter, a brother in law of fathers wrote about the
changes that had taken place in his family, he had only one
brother, who died sometime after his marriage, he had no
children, he had four sisters, their families are scattered,
some in Canada, also some of them in London, England, and others
in the United States.
I can only date my mother's genealogy to the third generation.
Our great grandfather was an Episcopal clergyman, a Mr. Duke. He
married Miss Anna Clifford, a descendant of the House of
Clifford. My grandmother was proud of her ancestors, she once
replied to a gentleman who told her that her daughter in law
whom she had never met was considered haughty, she said "The
blood of the Dukes was equal to anything in America".
My great grand parents had four children, two sons and two
daughters, the two sons resided in London, one of them was
knighted for performing a very skillful surgery operation and
was known as Sir Valentine Duke. Surgery was a talent of the
family, it was through his influence that my mother's youngest
brother got the position of bodyguard or soldier to Queen
Victoria, he afterwards rose and was a captain in the British
Navy, and was afterwards promoted again until he was the equal
of anyone. We have not heard from them since the war, his name
was John Park. Sir Valentine Duke was never married but was a
wealthy man, and left his wealth to his brothers' sons, who were
two of the most noted surgeons in London. From what I learned,
the Dukes were people of considerable influence. Surgery was
inherited from the Clifford side of the house."
