Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Ferguson Family: In Scotland and America On the eighth day of November, 1901, the last member of the first generation of the Maryland branch of the Ferguson family in the State of New York passed away. There immediately sprang up among the younger generations of the family in Ontario County. New York, an interest in their ancestors and a desire to know something of their genealogy. An Investigation was begun by the author, making General James Ferguson of the English Army the key to the inquiry. After about a year's search, a clue was obtained through James Ferguson. K. C., of Edinburgh, Sheriff of Argyle. The following traditions in regard to the family in Scotland have been handed down from generation to generation in the American family: That the family was descended from Fergus, the first King of the Scots; that there was a noted sea captain in the family who died leaving a large property, and that the family in America were among the heirs; that one member of the family was in the Scottish Parliament, and another was a noted general who lived in the time of Oliver Cromwell; that one member of the family saved a portion of the people of Scotland from starving [luring a famine, and that he was the business man of a Duke; that a noted Colonel was killed on King's mountain in the Revolutionary War, and that the family in America was founded by three brothers who came lo America at an early date, one settling in the New England Mates, one in the Southern States, and the other. Robert, in Maryland, on land where the City of Washington, D. C.. is now located. All these traditions have been traced back to their proper source, and have been found to be substantiated by facts found in the "History of the Ferguson Family in Scotland," which forms the first part of the book. "The History of the Maryland Branch of the Ferguson Family in America," forms the second part of the book. Many facts there recorded have been taken from public records. Great care has been taken to make the geneology of the family in America as nearly perfect as possible. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book A Perpetual Fire written by Lara Jaishree Netting and published by Hong Kong University Press. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After serving as a missionary and then foreign advisor to Qing officials from 1887 to 1911, John Ferguson became a leading dealer of Chinese art, providing the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Cleveland Museum of Art, and other museums with their inaugural collections of paintings and bronzes. In multiple publications dating to the 1920s and 1930s, Ferguson made the controversial claim that China’s autochthonous culture was the basis of Chinese art. His two Chinese language reference works, still in use today, were produced with essential help from Chinese scholars. Emulating these “men of culture” with whom he lived and worked in Peking, Ferguson gathered paintings, bronzes, rubbings, and other artifacts. In 1934, he donated this group of over one thousand objects to Nanjing University, the school he had helped to found as a young missionary. This work offers a significant contribution to the history of Chinese art collection. John Ferguson learned from and worked with Qing dynasty collectors and scholars, and then Republican-era dealers and archeologists, while simultaneously supplying the objects he had come to know as Chinese art to American museums and individuals. He is an ideal subject to help us see the interconnections between increased Western interest in Chinese art and archeology in the modern era, and cultural change taking place in China.
