Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This work contains complete as well as incomplete records of forty-seven cemeteries in Greene County, Alabama. In the past, some of these cemeteries were located in several surrounding counties which were once Greene County. Also, five of these cemeteries are located across the state line in Mississippi. Mrs. Mary Marshall, a well-known local historian and genealogist, compiled this information in a spiral notebook through years of searching these discarded and nearly inaccessible cemeteries. Along with the data, she added her personal knowledge about the families buried in these cemeteries; names of siblings, wives, children of the deceased, relationships of survivors and etc. Therefore, all of her personal comments and detailed instructions are included as they could be invaluable to the researcher in these communities. Cemeteries included are: Belmont, Bethsalem, Beulah, Bigbee, Boligee City, Colvin, Clinton, Concord, Eatman, Ellis, Eutaw, Forkland, Garden, Gays, Greensboro, Gordon or Collins, Harrison, Horton, Havana, Hebron, Lower Pickensville, Lyon, Mildred Jones, Mobley, Mt.

Download or read book Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings written by Annette Gordon-Reed and published by University of Virginia Press. This book was released on 1998-03-29 with total page 324 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Annette Gordon-Reed's groundbreaking study was first published, rumors of Thomas Jefferson's sexual involvement with his slave Sally Hemings had circulated for two centuries. Among all aspects of Jefferson's renowned life, it was perhaps the most hotly contested topic. The publication of Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings intensified this debate by identifying glaring inconsistencies in many noted scholars' evaluations of the existing evidence. In this study, Gordon-Reed assembles a fascinating and convincing argument: not that the alleged thirty-eight-year liaison necessarily took place but rather that the evidence for its taking place has been denied a fair hearing. Friends of Jefferson sought to debunk the Hemings story as early as 1800, and most subsequent historians and biographers followed suit, finding the affair unthinkable based upon their view of Jefferson's life, character, and beliefs. Gordon-Reed responds to these critics by pointing out numerous errors and prejudices in their writings, ranging from inaccurate citations, to impossible time lines, to virtual exclusions of evidence—especially evidence concerning the Hemings family. She demonstrates how these scholars may have been misguided by their own biases and may even have tailored evidence to serve and preserve their opinions of Jefferson. This updated edition of the book also includes an afterword in which the author comments on the DNA study that provided further evidence of a Jefferson and Hemings liaison. Possessing both a layperson's unfettered curiosity and a lawyer's logical mind, Annette Gordon-Reed writes with a style and compassion that are irresistible. Each chapter revolves around a key figure in the Hemings drama, and the resulting portraits are engrossing and very personal. Gordon-Reed also brings a keen intuitive sense of the psychological complexities of human relationships—relationships that, in the real world, often develop regardless of status or race. The most compelling element of all, however, is her extensive and careful research, which often allows the evidence to speak for itself. Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings: An American Controversy is the definitive look at a centuries-old question that should fascinate general readers and historians alike.

Book excerpt: The Cherokees, the most important tribe in the formative years of the American Republic, became the test case for the Founding Fathers' determination to Christianize and "civilize" all Indians and to incorporate them into the republic as full citizens. From the standpoint of the Cherokees, rather than from that of the white policymakers, William McLoughlin tells the dramatic success story of the "renascence" of the tribe.
