Book excerpt: Volume II of This Too Shall Pass: Genealogy of the Western North Carolina Walker, Covington, Rollins, and Smart Families is the second book of a comprehensive and compelling genealogical trilogy written by two contemporary researchers, and sure to be the main source of reference for many years to come for those seeking information regarding their Carolina ancestors. These three volumes, as well as four other books written by these authors, represent the accumulation of sixteen years of detailed and extensive research work.While all three volumes of This Too Shall Pass . . . contain broad and expansive information about hundreds of family surnames and relatives who lived in western North Carolina from the early pioneer days of the 1700s up to the 1940s, the main focus of Volume II is an in-depth study of the Walker, Covington, Rollins, and Smart family members of Rutherford and Cleveland Counties, complete with revealing personal sketches, intriguing family histories, nostalgic photographs, and extended ancestral lineages. Volume II of the This Too Shall Pass trilogy traces our pioneer ancestor's journey into western North Carolina by the Great Wagon Road, and sheds light on the struggles and conditions they faced while settling in a land of dense forest, wild animals, and Native American Indians. Volume II also includes the story of the Revolutionary War Battle at Moores Creek Bridge, the Covington family involvement, and a tribute page to John Grady, "An American Patriot." If you happen to be one of the numerous individuals who trace their roots back to the Piedmont frontier, this cradle of family expansion, it is highly probable that you will find mention of your ancestors within the covers of this book, and the other publications of these authors. You will also find this publication, Volume II, as well as all three volumes of This Too Shall Pass, plentifully supplied with attractive illustrations and easy to read stories about our, and your, Carolina kinfolk.

Download or read book The Gullah People and Their African Heritage written by William S. Pollitzer and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2005-11-01 with total page 340 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Gullah people are one of our most distinctive cultural groups. Isolated off the South Carolina-Georgia coast for nearly three centuries, the native black population of the Sea Islands has developed a vibrant way of life that remains, in many ways, as African as it is American. This landmark volume tells a multifaceted story of this venerable society, emphasizing its roots in Africa, its unique imprint on America, and current threats to its survival. With a keen sense of the limits to establishing origins and tracing adaptations, William S. Pollitzer discusses such aspects of Gullah history and culture as language, religion, family and social relationships, music, folklore, trades and skills, and arts and crafts. Readers will learn of the indigo- and rice-growing skills that slaves taught to their masters, the echoes of an African past that are woven into baskets and stitched into quilts, the forms and phrasings that identify Gullah speech, and much more. Pollitzer also presents a wealth of data on blood composition, bone structure, disease, and other biological factors. This research not only underscores ongoing health challenges to the Gullah people but also helps to highlight their complex ties to various African peoples. Drawing on fields from archaeology and anthropology to linguistics and medicine, The Gullah People and Their African Heritage celebrates a remarkable people and calls on us to help protect their irreplaceable culture.
