Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from 1808-1908 Centennial History of the Town of Nunda: With a Preliminary Recital of the Winning of Western New York, From the Fort Builders Age to the Last Conquest by Our Revolutionary Forefathers I. Be intensely interested in your subject matter; let persons and places reflect the interest of the writer. II. Investigate, get to the bottom facts; remember your investigations will save thousands of others personal research. III. Persevere; the persistent plodder alone succeeds; miracles are wrought by perseverance. IV. Be human, - have a sense of humor. Man is the only animal that smiles; the Pioneers had a rich fund of humor, and transmitted it through inheritance to their offspring. Young readers also crave it wit wins with them when wisdom wearies. V. Give, when possible, personal knowledge of localities and events; it adds something new from personal testimony, and is, at least, original. Even fish stories lose half their fishiness if the fisherman himself tells them. This application is not specific: there are others. VI. Familiarize yourself with what has already been written, and, like a soldier, "appropriate" every "scrap" and turn it into edible "scrap pie." VII. See the beauty in every scene, the good in every life; then lend the public your spectacles that they may see what you see. VIII. Avoid pessimism and slander; leave each skeleton in its closet, years of retirement have not improved its aroma; leave out the bad when possible; just assume that our forebears were as "bearish" as their posterity, (don't say descendants, it implies too much). Hunger and toothache bring back the original savage. At our worst "we are all poor critters." At our best - well, we live in paradise - i. c., Nunda. IX. Be intensely in earnest when dealing with life's realities. Death is as real as birth; pathos as essential as humor. "Oakwood" is more densely populated than the village or town we live in. X. Don't fear the critics; criticism, not commendation, is their stunt. Banish fear, for the common man who writes Is brother hero to the man who fights, Neither are seeking wealth, fame or renown For good of others shall their acts redound, Then banish fear of blame, or critics frown. Who does his best merits the victor's crown. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Named for the Native American village that once stood within its borders, Nunda swelled with settlers seeking to build a better life for their families. The vast township was soon carved into several smaller towns, including Portage and Genesee Falls.

Vintage photographs also tell the stories of the Genesee Valley Canal, the great Portage Bridge, and Letchworth State Park.

Download or read book All for the Union written by John A. Simpson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2022-04-01 with total page 433 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When the South bombarded Fort Sumter in April 1861, the Ellithorpe family in rural New York answered President Lincoln’s call to defend the Union. For the next four years, the two Ellithorpe brothers and two of their brothers-in-law fought in some of the Civil War’s most storied regiments, on nearly every major battlefield in the East. In this utterly unique Civil War history/biography, John A. Simpson reconstructs the intertwined lives and wars of four Union soldiers, from Bull Run to Gettysburg and beyond. When the Civil War broke out, Phillip Ellithorpe, Philander Ellithorpe, Asa Burleson, and Oliver Moore did not hesitate to volunteer to fight for the Union. Their service would encompass virtually every branch of the Northern army: infantry (including sharpshooters), cavalry (mounted and dismounted), and artillery as well as commissary, engineering, and ambulance duty. They would serve in six different regiments: the 13th Pennsylvania Reserves (the legendary Bucktails); the 27th New York Infantry (the Union Regiment); the 2nd New York Mounted Rifles; the 5th Vermont Infantry; the 1st New York Dragoons; and the 1st Minnesota, which gained immortality at Gettysburg. They would participate in the major battles of the war’s Eastern theater: First Bull Run, the Peninsula, Second Bull Run, Antietam, Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, and Grant’s Overland campaign through Petersburg. Phillip would die at Gettysburg, and the other three would return home and live under the shadow of the Civil War for the rest of their lives. All for the Union tells the dramatic story of these four soldiers, weaving their lives and wars into a tapestry of how one family navigated home front and battle front during the Civil War. Based on 180 family letters, voluminous primary and second sources, and visits to homes and battlefields from Allegany County, New York, to Richmond, Virginia, All for the Union is a remarkable contribution to Civil War history.

Download or read book States at War Volume 2 written by Richard F. Miller and published by University Press of New England. This book was released on 2014-08-05 with total page 505 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While many Civil War reference books exist, there is no single compendium that contains important details about the combatant states (and territories) that Civil War researchers can readily access for their work. People looking for information about the organizations, activities, economies, demographics, and prominent personalities of Civil War states and state governments must assemble data from a variety of sources, with many key sources remaining unavailable online. This volume provides a crucial reference book for Civil War scholars and historians, professional or amateur, seeking information about New York during the war. Its principal sources include the Official Records, state adjutant general reports, legislative journals, state and federal legislation, executive speeches and proclamations on the federal and state levels, and the general and special orders issued by the military authorities of both governments, North and South. Designed and organized for easy use, this book can be read in two ways: by individual state, with each chapter offering a stand-alone history of an individual state's war years; or across states, comparing reactions to the same event or solutions to the same problems.
