Download or read book Growing Up in the Palm Beaches written by Bill Matthews and published by . This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 382 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Palm Beaches in the 1930s, 1940s and 1950s were a wonderful place to grow up. There were beaches, woods and empty fields for kids to explore. As the population crunch had not yet occurred, folks knew each other and got along...Living all over town, I knew the many neighborhoods of West Palm Beach: Northboro, Centralboro, and Southboro. As my father had a small jewelry store in the 500 block of Clematis for 34 years, I was quite familiar with the many businesses on Clematis. In this personal history, I have mentioned the names of friends, neighbors, teachers and just plain folks I knew over the years and have come to love. I believe their story has to be told and my story would be incomplete without them.
Download or read book Village of North Palm Beach written by Rosa Sophia and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2020-10-19 with total page 151 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While North Palm Beach itself is relatively young--just about retirement age--the history of this area is as broad as the horizon. Long before this village was founded in 1956, the Jeaga tribe lived and thrived here. In 1883, perhaps with a mind to farm pineapples, two men began purchasing local plots, becoming the area's first landowners. From there, through fits and starts, this idyll of small-town life began to take shape. The population surged in 1956 when Pratt & Whitney built a facility west of town, making the village a destination for professionals and their families. Former village historian Rosa Sophia traces the long and fascinating history of North Palm Beach, touching on the little known and providing broader understanding of the people and events that nurtured the undeniable community atmosphere that exists today.

Download or read book Descendants of William Cromartie and Ruhamah Doane and Related Families written by Amanda Cook Gilbert and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2013 with total page 671 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This ambitious work chronicles 250 years of the Cromartie family genealogical history. Included in the index of nearly fifty thousand names are the current generations, and all of those preceding, which trace ancestry to our family patriarch, William Cromartie, who was born in 1731 in Orkney, Scotland, and his second wife, Ruhamah Doane, who was born in 1745. Arriving in America in 1758, William Cromartie settled and developed a plantation on South River, a tributary of the Cape Fear near Wilmington, North Carolina. On April 2, 1766, William married Ruhamah Doane, a fifth-generation descendant of a Mayflower passenger to Plymouth, Stephen Hopkins. If Cromartie is your last name or that of one of your blood relatives, it is almost certain that you can trace your ancestry to one of the thirteen children of William Cromartie , his first wife, and Ruhamah Doane, who became the founding ancestors of our Cromartie family in America: William Jr., James, Thankful, Elizabeth, Hannah Ruhamah, Alexander, John, Margaret Nancy, Mary, Catherine, Jean, Peter Patrick, and Ann E. Cromartie. These four volumes hold an account of the descent of each of these first-generation Cromarties in America, including personal anecdotes, photographs, copies of family bibles, wills, and other historical documents. Their pages hold a personal record of our ancestors and where you belong in the Cromartie family tree.
Download or read book Solving the West Palm Beach Murder of Jeffrey Heagerty written by Graham Brunk and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2016-11-28 with total page 134 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true crime story of a love triangle, drug deals, and the 1984 cold case murder of a gay, South Florida teenager. Jeffrey Heagerty was like most young gay nineteen-year-olds in South Florida in the 1980s, commonly finding himself and his friends at the popular Kevin's Cabaret in West Palm Beach on Saturday nights. On one of those Saturday nights in 1984, Jeff vanished from the club, leaving his friends behind even though he was their ride home. His body was found dumped in a canal the next morning and his car was missing, only to be found a month later, abandoned on the other side of town. Rumors of a love triangle, drug dealings and sexual encounters snarled police efforts at solving the case. The investigation stagnated and the case grew cold until the solution came from two unexpected sources: overlooked details in police photographs of Jeff's car and a mysterious letter from an inmate in the Palm Beach County Jail.

Now this Student Edition in two volumes makes this rich, rugged story of the American pioneer spirit more accessible to young readers. Patrick Smith tells of three generations of the MacIveys, a Florida family battling the hardships of the frontier. The story opens in 1858, when Tobias and Emma MacIvey arrive in the Florida wilderness with their son, Zech, to start a new life, and ends in 1968 with Solomon MacIvey, who realizes that his wealth has not been worth the cost to the land. Between is a sweeping story rich in Florida history with a cast of memorable characters who battle wild animals, rustlers, Confederate deserters, mosquitoes, starvation, hurricanes, and freezes to carve a kingdom out of the Florida swamp. In this volume, meet young Zech MacIvey, who learns to ride like the wind through the Florida scrub on Ishmael, his marshtackie horse, his dogs, Nip and Tuck, at this side. His parents, Tobias and Emma, scratch a living from the land, gathering wild cows from the swamp and herding them across the state to market. Zech learns the ways of the land from the Seminoles, with whom his life becomes entwined as he grows into manhood. Next in series > > See all of the books in this series

Download or read book M O V E THE PRESIDENT written by Rama Raju and published by Ethereum LLC. This book was released on with total page 138 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *20% of net proceeds will be donated to organizations that fight voter suppression and support voting rights* We are all created equal, but not our votes. In 2016, Hillary Clinton beat out Donald Trump for the popular vote and by millions of votes in states like California and New York. In a “winner-take-all” format, she was given all the electoral college votes for those states. Unfortunately, the millions of additional voters in favor of Clinton in those states were basically worthless. Conversely, since Trump didn’t win electoral college votes in those states, the millions of Californians and New Yorkers who voted for him were also statistically irrelevant. They had no part in getting him elected. Trump won the election because of his voters mainly in Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, and Arizona. Combined together, he won by just 314,000 votes in just those 5 states alone. Voters in those five states were statistically more important than the millions of voters in California and New York. What if just a fraction of Clinton’s excess voters in California, New York, Illinois, Massachusetts, and Maryland moved to battleground states like Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, Florida, and Arizona? Madam President would have thanked them from her Oval Office. In a new playbook for winning elections, this book discusses how everyday passionate politicos can M.O.V.E. (Make Our Votes Elect) the President. It is rare for a candidate to win the popular vote but lose the election. It has only happened four other times in our nation’s history. However, we’re entering an era where winning the popular vote and losing the general election will occur more frequently. Why? Because most of the nation’s key demographic transformations are occurring in states that matter the least to the electoral college process. Each year, around 40 million Americans, or about 12% of the current U.S. population, moves at least once. Much of that movement involves younger people relocating within states that already heavily lean toward a certain political party. What if they made a conscious decision to M.O.V.E. to a battleground state? Well, our votes would be equal, the way we were created.
