Book The Randolph Family of England  Scotland and Virginia  History and Genealogy

Download or read book The Randolph Family of England Scotland and Virginia History and Genealogy written by William McCreight and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2015-08-07 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents histories and genealogies of the Randolph family in Scotland, England, Colonial Virginia, and the United States of America. In addition to the Randolphs, it includes the histories and genealogies of seven important English families that are ancestors of the Randolphs. In Scotland, the Randolph name can be traced, with confidence, back to Sir Thomas Randolph, Lord Chamberlain of Scotland in about 1250, but the family was probably founded in about 1190 in Littelsdaleshire, Scotland. The genealogical line itself can be traced with confidence back to Crinan of Dunkeld died 1045. He founded the Scottish royal house of Dunkeld. In England, the family can be traced back to Robert Randolph in South Sussex, who died in 1602. British archives contain earlier English Randolph primary sources, back to the beginning of the second millennium AD, shortly after the Norman conquest of England in 1066. However, it is difficult to construct a reliable unbroken English Randolph family genealogical line up to Robert Randolph. Nevertheless, there is considerable circumstantial evidence in primary and secondary sources for descent from John Randall of Hamsey, whose will was, dated 1552. A great many excellent books have been written about the Randolph family, and numerous historical documents are available. However, to my knowledge much of the content of this book about the Randolphs has not been published before. Much of the content about seven other important families in England, from whom the Randolphs are descended, dating back to 858 AD, has not been published in connection with the Randolph family before. This book is the first in a series of three volumes. Volume 2 provides thirty-four histories and genealogies of ancestors of the Randolphs in virtually every European country and parts of the Middle East. Volume 2 contains 5,371 references and notes. This is too many to include in volume 2 itself. Volume 3 contains the references and notes to volume 2."

Book Scandal at Bizarre

Download or read book Scandal at Bizarre written by Cynthia A. Kierner and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 2006 with total page 260 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the early 1790s Richard Randolph was accused of fathering a child by his sister-in-law, Nancy, and murdering the baby shortly after its birth. Rumors about the incident, which occurred during a visit to the plantation of close family friends, spread like wildfire. Randolph found himself on trial for the crime largely because of the public outrage fueled by these rumors. The rest of the household suffered too, and only Nancy, who later married the esteemed New York statesman Gouverneur Morris, would find any degree of happiness. A tale of family passion, betrayal, and deception, Scandal at Bizarre is a fascinating historical portrait of the social and political realities of a world long vanished.

Excerpt: Thomas Jefferson (April 13, 1743 - July 4, 1826) was the third President of the United States (1801-1809) and the principal author of the Declaration of Independence (1776). An influential Founding Father, Jefferson envisioned America as a great "Empire of Liberty" that would promote republicanism. Jefferson served as the wartime Governor of Virginia (1779-1781), barely escaping capture by the British in 1781. Many people were not pleased with his tenure and in the next election he did not win office again in Virginia. From mid-1784 through late 1789 Jefferson lived outside the United States. He served in Paris initially as a commissioner to help negotiate commercial treaties. In May 1785 he succeeded Benjamin Franklin as the U.S. Minister to France. He was the first United States Secretary of State (1789-1793) under George Washington and advised him against a national bank and the Jay Treaty. He was the second Vice President (1797-1801) under John Adams. Winning on an anti-federalist platform, ...

Book Peyton Randolph and Revolutionary Virginia

Download or read book Peyton Randolph and Revolutionary Virginia written by Robert M. Randolph and published by McFarland. This book was released on 2019-11-13 with total page 223 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt:  In 1763, King George III's government adopted a secret policy to reduce the American colonies to "due subordinance" and exploit them. This brought on the American Revolution. In Virginia, there was virtually unanimous agreement that Britain's actions violated Virginia's constitutional rights. Yet Virginians were deeply divided as to a remedy. Peyton Randolph, Speaker of the House of Burgesses 1766-1775 (and chairman of the First and Second Continental Congresses), worked to unify the colony, keeping the conservatives from moving too slowly and the radicals from moving too swiftly. Virginia was thus the only major colony to enter the Revolution united. Randolph was a masterful politician who produced majorities for critical votes leading to revolution.
