The Wild Animals of Clinton County, Pennsylvania, complied by Henry W. Shoemaker, From Conversations and Notes of John H. Chatham, John Q. Dyce, Thomas G. Simcox, Seth Iredell Nelson, Seth Nelson Jr., and other Clinton County Naturalists.
"Of all the bats in Clinton County the old-timers liked least of all the rare Pigmy Bat, or Night Wren. Probably that was because so many of the early settlers were of Scotch-Irish origin, or at least had Scotch blood in their veins. Though classed by hasty genealogists as a P. D., I am a Scot by blood. During the Seventeenth Century my ancestor Alexander Dyce, a schoolmaster, migrated to Germany to teach conic sections to a Prince of the Blood, who eventually gave him a monopoly and he became a successful merchant of Hungarian wines. The name became Germanized into Deyse, and when they landed in Pennsylvania English scribes altered it to Deise, but we have now gone back to the original Scottish spelling "Dyce." Throughout our wanderings we never lost our Caledonian traditions, and Christian names, together with the superstitions of the Highlands. One of them was a dread of the appearance at certain times of small bats or wrens. A Pigmy Bat in the house meant a disaster of some kind, it never failed in ten generations of Dyces. The old families of Clinton County, no matter what their origin, Greek, Scotch-Irish, Huguenot, Waldensian, Spanish, German, or Dutch, each had its familiar animal spirit or token; I know them all, and could tell them to you if you cared to hear them. And though we knew that trouble followed these visitors from another world, we were in a sense proud of them, as the families of newer origins did not have them - all of the Scotch-German families had them, the Campbells, Camerons, Buchanans, Nelsons, Hays, Youngs, Jacks, Barclays, Peppers, Kerrs, Reids, Silvius, and others. Their names had all been slightly altered to German pronunciation after they had gone to Germany for business advancement and then come to Pennsylvania, but they were a wheel within a wheel, a clannish group, who considered themselves above the rank and file of Pennsylvania Germans, married only among themselves, cherished their armorial bearings, traditions and ghosts, and many have been the great men in Pennsylvania and elsewhere, including Major William McKinley, who have this blood in their veins. J. Q. Dyce, 1902."
