The Provincial Councillors of Pennsylvania
belongs in every American genealogical library because it covers many of the  leading families of the mid-Atlantic region and includes the entire progeny of  the councillors--including daughters of daughters of daughters, sons of sons of  sons, cadet branches who moved west, and English, French, German and other  foreign descendants. Treated especially well are the full progenies then known  of several royally descended founders of the Province--the Welsh Deputy Governor  Thomas and Mary (Jones) Lloyd, plus John Cadwalader, and the Scottish James  Logan (plus the mostly Pennsylvania progeny of James Tilghman, son of the  immigrant Richard of Maryland). Also covered are all descendants of Edward  Shippen (mostly Winthrop descendants via Grosses of Boston), who include the  family of traitor Benedict Arnold and the also royally descended Burds of  Philadelphia, plus Willings, Binghams, Clymers, Francises, Bayards of Delaware,  and Byrds of Virginia. Lloyd descendants include many of the leading Quaker and  Episcopal families of Philadelphia--Moores, Whartons, Pembertons, Morrises, plus  (under son-in-law Samuel Preston) Carpenters, Ellets, and Wistars. Logan  descendants include Fishers, Wisters, Drinkers, and Biddles.
