Book excerpt: Excerpt from Inscriptions on the Grave Stones: In the Grave Yards of Northampton, and of Other Towns in the Valley of the Connecticut, as Springfield, Amherst, Hadley, Hatfield, Deerfield, &C The object of the Compiler in the work he has undertaken is to preserve in a durable form some most interesting but rapidly perishing memorials of our Puritan ancestors. He has taken much pains to trace and to transcribe the inscriptions correctly. T. B. From the first settlement of Northampton in 1654, to 1661, a period of 7 years, there were 10 deaths. The place of burial was Meeting House Hill. The Town voted that after Oct. of that year no more burials should be on that spot, and the present yard was selected for that purpose. The first person buried therein was Henry Curtis, the only person who died that year; but no monument designates the place of his interment, nor that of others, for many years. Among this number was Rowland Stebbins, ancestor of all of the name now in America, who died Dec.14, 1671, aged 77, to commemorate whose death a Granite Cenotaph has been erected, which will be noticed in the Sequel of Monumental descriptions.

Download or read book The True Image written by Daniel W. Patterson and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2012-10-08 with total page 496 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A thousand unique gravestones cluster around old Presbyterian churches in the piedmont of the two Carolinas and in central Pennsylvania. Most are the vulnerable legacy of three generations of the Bigham family, Scotch Irish stonecutters whose workshop near Charlotte created the earliest surviving art of British settlers in the region. In The True Image, Daniel Patterson documents the craftsmanship of this group and the current appearance of the stones. In two hundred of his photographs, he records these stones for future generations and compares their iconography and inscriptions with those of other early monuments in the United States, Northern Ireland, and Scotland. Combining his reading of the stones with historical records, previous scholarship, and rich oral lore, Patterson throws new light on the complex culture and experience of the Scotch Irish in America. In so doing, he explores the bright and the dark sides of how they coped with challenges such as backwoods conditions, religious upheavals, war, political conflicts, slavery, and land speculation. He shows that headstones, resting quietly in old graveyards, can reveal fresh insights into the character and history of an influential immigrant group.
