  • Release : 2016-11-09
  • ISBN : 9781540326577
  • Pages : 232 pages

Download or read book Virginia Vetusta written by Edward D. Neill and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-11-09 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the PREFACE. ON the belief, that there was need of such a contribution, to the documentary history, of the early colonial period of Virginia, this work has been prepared. It is intended to supplement the History of the Virginia Company of London, which was published several years ago, and has proved of some value to the students of American history. It is quite remarkable, that for two centuries, historical writers chiefly depended upon a book compiled by an adventurer, for a knowledge of the early English colonization in North America. The once Deputy Governor of Virginia, George Percy, in a letter, to his brother Henry the 9th Earl of Northumberland, refers to a publication, "wherein the author hath not spared to appropriate many deserts to himself, which he never performed, and stuffed his relations with so many falsities, and malicious detractions." As yet no document of the period of James the First, has been discovered, which tells where the church was situated, in which John Rolfe was married to Pocahontas, and the name of the officiating clergyman. There is evidence however, that Rolfe, in 1609, left England with a white wife, and that she gave birth to a daughter at Bermudas, who soon died. Hamor writes, that "about the fifth of April," 1614, Rolfe began to live with the Indian woman, and he is supposed, then, to have been a widower. With Pocahontas he went to England, and in March, 1617, she died at Gravesend. Rolfe returned to Virginia, and soon married Jane, a daughter of William Pierce, Governor of Jamestown, "inferior to none in experience, industry and capacity" who in 1609, had left England, in the same vessel, with Rolfe. Early in 1622 Rolfe died, leaving his widow Jane, and in the words of his will "two small children of very tender age," a son Thomas, about three years old, and a daughter Elizabeth, one year of age. In 1623, the father of the widow went to England, and as Jane Rolfe, and her son Thomas, are not mentioned in the census, of January, 1624 (O. S.), while the daughter, now four years old, is noted as residing with a Captain Roger Smith of Jamestown, an officer who had served twelve years in the wars of the Netherlands, now one of the Virginia Council, it seems probable, that Capt. William Pierce had taken his daughter, and grandson Thomas with him. At Sculthorpe Rectory, Co. Norfolk, England, there is a portrait of a wife of John Rolfe, with a son, by her side. Her hair is parted in the middle, there is no head ornament, and the face has a natural expression. It represents a woman in the dress of the period, about thirty years of age. This portrait once belonged to the Rolfes of Norfolk. In Manning and Bray's History of Surrey it is mentioned that Thomas Rolfe married in England, had a son Anthony, whose daughter Hannah married Sir Thomas Leigh.

Book The Baptism of Early Virginia

Download or read book The Baptism of Early Virginia written by Rebecca Anne Goetz and published by JHU Press. This book was released on 2016-02-15 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In The Baptism of Early Virginia, Rebecca Anne Goetz examines the construction of race through the religious beliefs and practices of English Virginians. She finds the seventeenth century a critical time in the development and articulation of racial ideologies—ultimately in the idea of “hereditary heathenism,” the notion that Africans and Indians were incapable of genuine Christian conversion. In Virginia in particular, English settlers initially believed that native people would quickly become Christian and would form a vibrant partnership with English people. After vicious Anglo-Indian violence dashed those hopes, English Virginians used Christian rituals like marriage and baptism to exclude first Indians and then Africans from the privileges enjoyed by English Christians—including freedom. Resistance to hereditary heathenism was not uncommon, however. Enslaved people and many Anglican ministers fought against planters’ racial ideologies, setting the stage for Christian abolitionism in the late eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Using court records, letters, and pamphlets, Goetz suggests new ways of approaching and understanding the deeply entwined relationship between Christianity and race in early America. "Goetz has done an impressive job bringing religion to the center of the historiography on race, and her study is a must-read for all scholars interested in the development of race and the role of Protestantism in the Atlantic world."—Register of the Kentucky Historical Society "In a compact 173 pages, Goetz links race and religion in colonial Virginia in ways that few other scholars have even attempted."—Journal of American History "This is impressive scholarship grounded in letters, pamphlets, court records, colonial statutes, and a wide array of additional archival and secondary sources . . . It is a book that will find ready readership in graduate seminars, seminaries, and undergraduate classrooms."—Virginia Magazine of History and Biography "Professor Goetz . . . is to be warmly applauded for having produced a work of such methodological scope and intellectual sophistication, a most persuasive work that ranks as a major contribution to the field."—Slavery and Abolition Rebecca Anne Goetz is an associate professor of history at New York University.
