Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A short history of our line of the Sperry family as researched and remembered by Greta Daigle, 2024 My paternal grandmother was Mary Theresa Sperry, who loved to tell the family stories. Through her and through my parents, Maurice Sperry Young and Marion Kirch Young, I developed a strong passion for genealogy, and especially our own family stories. I loved her story that we were descended from pirates. We have traced the Sperry family back to John Sperry, born 1540 in Bedfordshire, England. The first Sperry to come to America was Richard Sperry, who came to America in 1637. Richard is known to have aided the judges who condemned Charles 1 to death and escaped England as a "Regicide". It is through the Sperrys that we are related to Benjamin Franklin, who is my 1st cousin, 9 times removed. We are also related to Sperry Flour in California, Sperry Gyroscopes who later evolved into Honeywell Corp. and to the Sperry Shoes. We have a long line of Adirondack Guides and creators and builders and regular people too. This is a very consolidated version of my line, back through the Sperrys. Hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed putting it together.

Download or read book The World of Juliette Kinzie written by Ann Durkin Keating and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2019-11-07 with total page 293 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A “fascinating” biography of an early Chicago settler, a social and cultural force in the city, and one of America’s first female historians (Chicago Sun-Times). When Juliette Kinzie first visited Chicago in 1831, it was anything but a city. An outpost in the shadow of Fort Dearborn, it had no streets, no sidewalks, no schools, no river-spanning bridges. And with two hundred disconnected residents, it lacked any sense of community. In the decades that followed, not only did Juliette witness the city’s transition from Indian country to industrial center, but she was instrumental in its development, one of the women in this “man’s city” who worked to create an urban and urbane world, often within their own parlors. Here we finally get to experience the rise of Chicago from the view of one of its founding mothers. In a moving portrait of a trailblazing and complicated woman, Keating takes us to the corner of Cass and Michigan (now Wabash and Hubbard), Juliette’s home base. Through Juliette’s eyes, our understanding of early Chicago expands from a city of boosters and speculators to include the world women created in and between households. We see the development of Chicago society, first inspired by Eastern cities and later coming into its own midwestern ways. We also see the city become a community, as it developed its intertwined religious, social, educational, and cultural institutions. Keating draws on a wealth of sources, including hundreds of Juliette’s personal letters, allowing Juliette to tell much of her story in her own words. Juliette’s death in 1870, just a year before the infamous fire, seemed almost prescient. She left her beloved Chicago right before the physical city as she knew it vanished in flames. But now her history lives on, in a biography that offers a new perspective on Chicago’s past. “An authority on Chicago’s history, Keating draws on a trove of family documents . . . Illustrations are a particular strength of the book, including maps, portraits, and photographs of houses—the latter are particularly apt because the book is an exploration of peoples’ lives within households.” —Journal of the Early Republic “Chronicles the history of women in early colonial America, an area that benefits from this addition to the genre.” —The American Historical Review “[A] remarkable book.” —The Journal of American History
