Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifteen years after its hardcover debut, the FSG Classics reissue of the celebrated work of narrative nonfiction that won the National Book Award and changed the American conversation about race, with a new preface by the author The Ball family hails from South Carolina—Charleston and thereabouts. Their plantations were among the oldest and longest-standing plantations in the South. Between 1698 and 1865, close to four thousand black people were born into slavery under the Balls or were bought by them. In Slaves in the Family, Edward Ball recounts his efforts to track down and meet the descendants of his family's slaves. Part historical narrative, part oral history, part personal story of investigation and catharsis, Slaves in the Family is, in the words of Pat Conroy, "a work of breathtaking generosity and courage, a magnificent study of the complexity and strangeness and beauty of the word ‘family.'"

Download or read book A History and Genealogy of Edward Vaughn from Midland Indiana written by Dennis VAUGHN and published by . This book was released on 2021-05-17 with total page 173 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This second edition includes additional chapters containing family memories from Edward's daughters, Thelma and Della. Also, included are the memories of grandson Ed Jr. A chapter covering Edward's son, Eddie, is also included. The book is the result of research compiled from 2017-2020 by a descendant of Edward Vaughn, grandson Dennis R. Vaughn. This is a history and genealogy of the Edward Vaughn family in 10 chapters and 5 appendices. It covers the origins of the Vaughan/Vaughn surname as well as the likely origins of the family in the Wales and western Midlands region of the British Isles. The narrative follows seven generations of Vaughns beginning in the early 1700s with Daniel Vaughan and his son, William "T" Vaughan, and ends with Edward living in Greene County in the 1940s. We follow the family from the early Virginia Colony in Charles City and later Mecklenburg County. By the late 1700s, this Vaughn branch headed to Washington (Marion) County in pioneer Kentucky. The Vaughns would eventually migrate to Indiana, settling first in Owen and then Greene Counties by 1900. With the help of genealogists using Vaughan/Vaughn DNA matches and other Vaughan family trees, the book discloses how the origins of Edward's branch of the Vaughn family tree were established. Chapter 4 describes the migration of Samuel Vaughan and Richard Gregory families from southern Virginia to Nelson (Washington) County, Kentucky, around 1790.Chapters 9 and 10 explore the lives of Edward Vaughn and his wife Anna Mary Cadwell in Midland, Indiana, from the early 1900s to the late 1940s.Appendix 3 lists eleven Vaughn-Murphy intermarriages from 1825 to 1899. Most of the marriages were between descendants of Samuel Vaughan Sr. and Kanellum Murphey Sr. of Washington County, Kentucky.Appendix 5 includes notes collected by the researcher on the arrival of William "T" Vaughan's descendants into Gasconade, Maries and Osage, Missouri, between 1820 and 1840.Other families the Vaughns interacted with along the way include the Gregorys, Averitts, Swans, Yowells, Murphys, Cadwells, Alsops, Bradfords, Woods, Arthurs, and Geabharts.The 173-page book includes an index, photographs, color illustrations and documents, and 27 maps in color.

Download or read book The Notorious Elizabeth Tuttle written by Ava Chamberlain and published by NYU Press. This book was released on 2012-10-31 with total page 274 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who was Elizabeth Tuttle? In most histories, she is a footnote, a blip. At best, she is a minor villain in the story of Jonathan Edwards, perhaps the greatest American theologian of the colonial era. Many historians consider Jonathan Edwards a theological genius, wildly ahead of his time, a Puritan hero. Elizabeth Tuttle was Edwards’s “crazy grandmother,” the one whose madness and adultery drove his despairing grandfather to divorce. In this compelling and meticulously researched work of micro-history, Ava Chamberlain unearths a fuller history of Elizabeth Tuttle. It is a violent and tragic story in which anxious patriarchs struggle to govern their households, unruly women disobey their husbands, mental illness tears families apart, and loved ones die sudden deaths. Through the lens of Elizabeth Tuttle, Chamberlain re-examines the common narrative of Jonathan Edwards’s ancestry, giving his long-ignored paternal grandmother a voice. Tracing this story into the 19th century, she creates a new way of looking at both ordinary families of colonial New England and how Jonathan Edwards’s family has been remembered by his descendants,contemporary historians, and, significantly, eugenicists. For as Chamberlain uncovers, it was during the eugenics movement, which employed the Edwards family as an ideal, that the crazy grandmother story took shape. The Notorious Elizabeth Tuttle not only brings to light the tragic story of an ordinary woman living in early New England, it also explores the deeper tension between the ideal of Puritan family life and its messy reality, complicating the way America has thought about its Puritan past.

Download or read book The Cornish Overseas written by Philip Payton and published by University of Exeter Press. This book was released on 2020-02-17 with total page 773 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this fully revised and up-dated edition of The Cornish Overseas, Philip Payton draws upon almost two decades of additional research undertaken by historians the world over since the first paperback version of this book was published in 2005. Now published by University of Exeter Press, this edition of Philip Payton’s classic history of Cornwall’s ‘great emigration’ takes account of numerous new sources to present a comprehensive, definitive picture of the Cornish diaspora. The Cornish Overseas begins by identifying some of the classic themes of Cornish emigration history, including Cornwall’s ‘emigration culture’ and ‘emigration trade’, and goes on to sketch early Cornish settlement in North America and Australia. The book then examines in detail the upsurge in Cornish emigration after 1815, showing how Cornwall became swiftly one of the great emigration regions of Europe. Discoveries of silver, copper and gold drew Cornish miners to Latin America, while Cornish agriculturalists were attracted to the United States and Canada. The discoveries of copper in South Australia and in Michigan during the 1840s offered new destinations for the emigrant Cornish, as did the Californian gold rush in 1849 and the Victorian gold rush in Australia in 1851. The crash of copper-mining in Cornwall in 1866 sped further waves of emigrants to countries as disparate as New Zealand and South Africa. In each of these places the Cornish remained distinctive as ‘Cousin Jacks’ and ‘Cousin Jennys’, establishing their own communities and making important contributions to the social, political and economic development of the new worlds. By 1914, however, Cornwall was no longer the international centre of mining expertise, the mantle having passed to America, Australia and South Africa, and Cornish emigration had dwindled as a result. Nonetheless, the Cornish at home and abroad remained aware of their global transnational identity, an identity that has been revitalised in the late twentieth and early twenty-first centuries.
