This book was released on 1963 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The New England of his day regarded John Gorham Palfrey's life as blameless and exemplary, a nineteenth-century "monument to the Puritan ideal of rectitude." Yet he himself once called it "his personal tragicomedy." At least, it was diverse, for Palfrey had been historian, Harvard educator, Unitarian minister, Massachusetts politician, editor of the North American Review, and crusader against slavery, and himself an emancipator. During his lifetime, from 1796 to 1881, Palfrey participated, sometimes reluctantly, in revolutionary changes in the political, economic, and intellectual climate of New England. In his stormy political career, Palfrey not only was Massachusetts Secretary of State, member of Congress, and Postmaster of Boston, but also played a key role in the formation of the Free Soil Party. When the Whigs, in the name of national unity and compromise, seemed to ignore the moral necessities of the slavery question, he joined with such men as Charles Francis Adams, Charles Sumner and Richard Henry Dana, Jr., to reaffirm traditional moral values. From this struggle, Palfrey emerged a political loser. Hampered by inflexibility, he laterretreated to his study to write his massive history of New England, nursing his disappointment and cherishing his sense of rectitude. We are left with the image of a man whose achievements were substantial, perhaps because he insisted upon making his life a Bay State morality play. For this biography of Palfrey, Gatell has used papers of Palfrey's contemporaries and of the Palfrey family manuscripts, among them an unpublished autobiography, itself a search for meaning in a long and perplexing life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family Gorham Plausible Speculations is an historical genealogical record of the Family Gorham, which includes a lineage of emperors, nobles, crusaders and clergy from early medieval times to everyday people in contemporary North America. It begins in mid-eighth-century France with Charlemagne through his daughter Rotrude. From there, the story tracks thirty-six generations, all the way to the author’s son Trevor, living in twenty-first-century Canada. Along the way, the reader is treated to tales of medieval nobility and the evolution of the Family Gorham name in northwestern France in Brittany, Maine and Normandy until the eleventh-century migration to Leicester, Hertford, and Northampton, England. The book recounts events in contemporary chronicles because nobility records are fragmentary and rarely place them in their family context. Mainly, they were documented on grants and charters to religious houses of the day. Rather than repeat or reproduce old information, Family Gorham Plausible Speculations employs a methodology that combines historical birth, marriage and death records with existing evidence from newly researched primary sources. The result is a genealogical thread of the author’s ancestry that features special relationships and strong plausible speculation about the lives of this once-flourishing extraordinary Family Gorham, its variants and pedigree. From a 1513 will of a Richard Gorram in Glapthorn, England, for example, we learn that three major branches of the family—the United States, St Neots, England, and the Canadian branches—derived from two sons of Richard, both named John. "Books about individual family histories can often be sprawling and indigestible for the reader. Thomas William Gorham, author of Family Gorham Plausible Speculations, avoids this trap by presenting the evidence of his ancestral family in a notably concise and clear manner. The work’s clarity is aided by an attractive layout incorporating a good range of illustrations. "The book’s reach is ambitious, with the chronological coverage stretching from early medieval times to the present, and the locations ranging from continental Europe to England, and then on to North America and Canada. The subtitle ‘Plausible Speculations’ sounds the key note of caution that must accompany such ambition; and, in a very helpful preface, the author discusses how his interpretations must be qualified by the limitations of the surviving documentary evidence. All too often, enthusiastic family historians don’t realise that such caution in historical research is a strength, not a weakness. Wherever possible, original source material has been tracked down; this is discussed and cited in an admirable way, firmly grounding the author’s interpretations about his fascinating ancestral story in the records." —Andrew North: Research Assistant, Northamptonshire Archives and Heritage Service, England "I very much like the way the author Thomas William Gorham has put Family Gorham Pausibile Speculations together, and especially like the fact that reference notes are added all the way through so the reader can tell where the evidence could be found- WELL DONE." —Barbara Chapman: Historian, Leverstock Green, Hertfordshire, England. Leverstock Green Chronicle "Family Gorham Plausibile Speculations is beautifully researched, presented and written. Well worth the price. This is a treasure for my granddaughter to cherish as part of her coming to know she is part of a long line of people who made a difference in this world. So grateful Thomas William Gorham." —Ginny Wagner (nee Gorham): CMCA, AMS, Independent Scholar, Texas, USA "My last read Family Gorham Plausible Speculation very enjoyable, well done Thomas William Gorham." —Richard Astle: Cousin, Retired Banker, Museum President, Alberta, Canada "Family Gorham Plausible Explanations has the feel of a country’s constitution, a short condensed document, with a library of pertinent scholarship behind it. So good that Thomas William Gorham stuck with it and brought the Book to press." —William Gorham: Cousin, Retired Lawyer, British Columbia, Canada
