Download or read book Reconstruction in Alabama written by Michael W. Fitzgerald and published by LSU Press. This book was released on 2017-03-13 with total page 607 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The civil rights revolutions of the 1950s and 1960s transformed the literature on Reconstruction in America by emphasizing the social history of emancipation and the hopefulness that reunification would bring equality. Much of this revisionist work served to counter and correct the racist and pro-Confederate accounts of Reconstruction written in the early twentieth century. While there have been modern scholarly revisions of individual states, most are decades old, and Michael W. Fitzgerald’s Reconstruction in Alabama is the first comprehensive reinterpretation of that state’s history in over a century. Fitzgerald’s work not only revises the existing troubling histories of the era, it also offers a compelling and innovative new look at the process of rebuilding Alabama following the war. Attending to an array of issues largely ignored until now, Fitzgerald’s history begins by analyzing the differences over slavery, secession, and war that divided Alabama’s whites, mostly along the lines of region and class. He examines the economic and political implications of defeat, focusing particularly on how freed slaves and their former masters mediated the postwar landscape. For a time, he suggests, whites and freedpeople coexisted mostly peaceably in some parts of the state under the Reconstruction government, as a recovering cotton economy bathed the plantation belt in profit. Later, when charting the rise and fall of the Republican Party, Fitzgerald shows that Alabama's new Republican government implemented an ambitious program of railroad subsidy, characterized by substantial corruption that eventually bankrupted the state and helped end Republican rule. He shows, however, that the state’s freedpeople and their preferred leaders were not the major players in this arena: they had other issues that mattered to them far more, like public education, civil rights, voting rights, and resisting the Klan’s terrorist violence. After Reconstruction ended, Fitzgerald suggests that white collective memory of the era fixated on black voting, big government, high taxes, and corruption, all of which buttressed the Jim Crow order in the state. This misguided understanding of the past encouraged Alabama's intransigence during the later civil rights era. Despite the power of faulty interpretations that united segregationists, Fitzgerald demonstrates that it was class and regional divisions over economic policy, as much as racial tension, that shaped the complex reality of Reconstruction in Alabama.

GEORGE RUSSELL JONES (The II) (Author of the Jones Genealogy), son of Sterling and Elizabeth Jones, was born Feb. 8th, 1845, at Delphi, Ind. He married Miss Ellen Eldora Savage, Jan. 1st, 1867, at her home in the town of Troy, St. Croix county, Wis. Ellen Savage Jones, his wife, was born June 3, 1850, at Portland, Maine.

George Wesley was born Nov. 8th, 1879, at Independence, Kansas, and died June 5th, 1880. After his marriage, George R.

He engaged in the insurance business and kept a boarding house. In 1875, disposing of his boarding house and insurance business, they moved to Independence, Kansas, there he engaged in the land business and improvement of farms.

His health failing during the campaign work, he withdrew and returned to Waukesha, Wis., and purchased the Mansion House; in 1882 he sold this hotel, and for a year was local reporter for the St. Paul Daily Globe and later the Chicago Herald. In 1883 he went to North Dakota and took a government claim of 160 acres, and a tree claim of 160 acres, and in 1884 he commuted the government claim.
