Download or read book Slave Revolts and North Carolina Quaker Migration written by Daniel Richard Kroupa and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 210 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This study will argue that the fear of slave revolts acted as the primary motivation for the migration of many members of the Society of Friends (Quakers) from North Carolina to the Old Northwest, especially Ohio and Indiana, during the early nineteenth century. From around 1800 until the outbreak of the American Civil War approximately 12,000 Quakers living in the states of Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia migrated to Indiana and Ohio. More than half of these migrants came from North Carolina. Historians studying the Quaker "Great Migration" have generally agreed that economics and opposition to slavery played major roles in motivating Southern Quakers to move to the Northwest. However, the fear of slave revolts went beyond economics and general opposition to slavery as an inducement for North Carolina Quakers to migrate."--Abstract, page [ii]

Download or read book NORTH CAROLINA QUAKERS written by J. Timothy Allen and published by Arcadia Library Editions. This book was released on 2011-10 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the 1750s, Quakers from Pennsylvania and Virginia settled in the North Carolina Piedmont, eventually organizing Spring Friends Meeting in 1763. The Friends still gather by the spring and wait for the light to descend upon them 250 years later. Spring Meeting nursed the injured and dying in the American Revolution, said goodbye to members migrating to farmlands in the Northwest, stood against slavery in the antebellum years, helped reconstruct the South in the late 1800s, and held their pacifist beliefs throughout the 20th century. A record-setting World Series pitcher, leading educators, missionaries, and major figures in North Carolina Quaker leadership fill its rolls. Persevering through the ebb and flow of revivals and apathy, Spring Meeting has left its mark in history. Today the spring flows, the front door remains unlocked, and members still gather on First Sundays.

Book excerpt: J. Williams Thorne (1816-1897) was an outspoken farmer who spent the first half-century of his remarkable life in Chester County, Pennsylvania, where he took part in political debates, helped fugitive slaves in the Underground Railroad and was active in the Progressive Friends Meeting, a national group of activist Quakers and allied reformers who met annually in Chester County. Williams and his associates discussed vital matters of the day, from slavery to prohibition to women's rights. These issues sometimes came to Thorne's doorstep--he met with nationally prominent reformers, and thwarted kidnappers seeking to enslave one of his free black tenants. After the Civil War, Williams became a "carpetbagger," moving to North Carolina to pursue farming and politics. An "infidel" Quaker (anti-Christian), he was opposed by Democrats who sought to keep him out of the legislature on account of his religious beliefs. Today a little-known figure in history, Williams made his mark through his outspokenness and persistent battling for what he believed.
