Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Island of Antigua, Vol. 1: One of the Leeward Caribbees in the West Indies, From the First Settlement in 1635 to the Present Time The various Papers and Pedigrees comprised in these two Volumes have been gradually accumulated during the last seven years. Having commenced by collecting information about my own family, which was formerly settled at Antigua, I was soon led to make notes of many others connected by marriage, and finally to compile the Pedigrees of all those formerly resident there. I then visited the Island, and during my stay from December 1888 to March 1st, 1889, made copious extracts from the parish registers and local records, besides copying all the monumental inscriptions in the various churchyards and plantation burial-grounds. Here I gratefully record my thanks to Sir William Frederick Haynes-Smith, the Governor of the Leeward Islands; to Captain I. C. Maling, then Acting-Secretary; to Mr. Octavius Humphrys, the Registrar of Wills and Deeds; to the various Rectors; and to my kind friends Messrs. Thomas Dickson Foote, John Foote, Arthur Shand, Oliver Nugent, John Jarvis, and others. The information thus acquired on the Island was subsequently largely augmented by a search through the Colonial Papers at the Public Record Office, Mrs. Vernona T. C. Smith materially assisting by making extracts for me from the Close Rolls; and my thanks are also due to Mr. Chaloner Smith, the head of the Literary Search Department at Somerset House, for his uniform courtesy and help. In regard to the Historical Introduction which follows, I have endeavoured to give as much original information as possible; most of it is in a very crude and condensed state, but I have purposely avoided putting forward my personal opinions, deeming it better for each reader to form his own. As to the Pedigrees, I must point out that some of them are unreliable, owing to the absence of sufficient proof, but I shall be very glad to receive corrections and additions. The first Volume has taken the Publishers over two years to print, but the remaining one will be probably completed next year.

Download or read book The Birth of the Village of Liberta Antigua written by Hewlester A. Samuel and published by Hewlester Samuel. This book was released on 2007 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Antigua: a tiny island in the Caribbean. Like so many others, it was host to slavery. This is the true story of the Africans enslaved on Antigua, on the plantations in and around the village of Liberta before it was formed. Dehumanized, unchurched, and worked like animals, they suffered like all other slaves in the New World.There came to the island a group of Moravian missionaries, who worked with the slaves of the plantations in the years of their oppression. While teaching Christianity, these missionaries strived to create better conditions for the blacks. Then, in 1834, came emancipation, and the village of Liberta was born. This is the story of black Antiguans' progress from slavery to freedom, and the transformation of a slave culture into a free society--a culturally, socially, and economically thriving community. With details on many of the historical sites, this is a story of survival, hope, and liberation.ABOUT THE AUTHORHewlester A. Samuel was born in Liberta Village, Antigua. He has always had an avid interest in history, in particular the history of his home island. He has scoured many history books and researched artifacts that date back to the beginning of slavery.Samuel attended Libertan public schools, then attended the West Indies School of Theology in Trinidad. He currently resides in Miami, Florida with his wife Anita and their three children. A retired real estate broker, he also served as a pastor for over fifty years.
Download or read book Troubling Freedom written by Natasha Lightfoot and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2015-11-19 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1834 Antigua became the only British colony in the Caribbean to move directly from slavery to full emancipation. Immediate freedom, however, did not live up to its promise, as it did not guarantee any level of stability or autonomy, and the implementation of new forms of coercion and control made it, in many ways, indistinguishable from slavery. In Troubling Freedom Natasha Lightfoot tells the story of how Antigua's newly freed black working people struggled to realize freedom in their everyday lives, prior to and in the decades following emancipation. She presents freedpeople's efforts to form an efficient workforce, acquire property, secure housing, worship, and build independent communities in response to elite prescriptions for acceptable behavior and oppression. Despite its continued efforts, Antigua's black population failed to convince whites that its members were worthy of full economic and political inclusion. By highlighting the diverse ways freedpeople defined and created freedom through quotidian acts of survival and occasional uprisings, Lightfoot complicates conceptions of freedom and the general narrative that landlessness was the primary constraint for newly emancipated slaves in the Caribbean.
