Download or read book The Civil War Roster of Davie County North Carolina written by Mary Alice M. Hasty and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2012-05-22 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It could be said that Davie County, North Carolina, entered the Civil War only reluctantly. As late as February of 1861, a statewide ballot calling for a convention on secession had been defeated by a relatively small margin of votes. In Davie County, however, some 754 people voted against the convention, with only 263 in favor. Yet despite the initial opposition, an enormous number of Davie County men signed up to fight. Out of a population of 6,000, more than 1,200 men served in the Confederate forces, three-fourths of them volunteers. This book seeks to identify every man who either served in a Davie County company or left Davie County to enlist in another county and to provide as much information as possible concerning each man's military and genealogical history.

Download or read book The Geography of Presidential Elections in the United States 1868 2004 written by Albert J. Menendez and published by . This book was released on 2005 with total page 368 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work concentrates on the longstanding and significant factors of regionalism and sectionalism in the voting for the U.S. chief executive. Even after the Civil War restored the nation's wholeness, the first postwar election showed the persistence of regional voting patterns. These patterns became even more pronounced in the succeeding elections of the 19th century and beyond. For the 35 presidential elections from 1868 to 2004, a narrative describes how the regions, states, and, in some instances, counties responded to the issues and personalities of the presidential contest. The geography of each election reveals how the party coalitions were developed. Realignments can be traced to regional appeals. In addition to the narrative, coverage for each election includes a table of the electoral vote, a map showing how the nation voted, and a table indicating where the parties received their highest level of support. The second part of the book is a series of charts showing which party carried each United States county in each election during this period. These charts reveal at a glance which counties reliably voted Republican or Democratic over the years?and which ones became ?breakthrough counties? where the opposition party first convinced the electorate that it should break with the past in a particular election. Such information, previously unavailable without extensive searching through dozens of diverse sources, is crucial to an understanding of how geography has affected elections over the years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For those who find themselves reminiscing of times past when life seemed less complicated, let William Jamie Moore take you back in time to an era in small-town America when crime was almost nonexistent, your backyard acted as the grocery store, charity wasn't an obligation; when life generally moved at a much slower pace. In Growing up in Davie County, Moore offers us an unusually candid and incredibly detailed window onto small-town life in North Carolina in the early decades of the twentieth century. Through the wide eyes of a child, we're transported back to a simpler, pastoral world that existed all over America not so very long ago. At times informative, at times moving and on occasion side-splittingly hilarious, this collection of stories is a must for anyone who can appreciate the joy of growing up in a friendly, close-knit community.
