Maddeson Generations
Maddeson Lines - First Generation -------------------------------------------------- 1. Isaac Maddeson. Born in 1590 in London, England (historically Scotland). Isaac died in West Sherlow, Virginia, in 1624; he was 34. A descendant of Edward I of England. Encyclopedia of Virginia biography, under the editorial supervision of Lyon Tyler. (edited by Lyon Gardiner Tyler) Isaac Maddeson, came to Virginia in 1608, only a year after the founding of Jamestown, and was employed in exploring the country and probably in making maps, etc. He went to England in 1620 and while there, on July 10, 1621, the Virginia Company, in recognition of his services in the colony, presented him with two shares in the company. He seems to have returned to Virginia shortly, for immediately after the massacre of 1622, we find him actively employed against the Indians and becoming one of the best known soldiers of the colony. About the first of July, 1622, the governor sent Capt. Isaac Maddeson with thirty odd men to the Patomac, where it was thought corn could be purchased from the friendly Indians and a possible alliance with them be formed against the hostile tribes. Maddeson conducted the affair very badly, and, notwithstanding orders to the contrary was soon at odds with the well-disposed savages. He was led into this by tales of a conspiracy on the part of the Indians, which though quite unfounded, moved him into an indefensible treachery against them whereby he captured the chief and his son and killed many of their unfortunate tribesmen. The captives were finally ransomed for a quantity of corn. -

James Longstreet and the Retreat from Gettysburg
“Such a night is seldom experienced…” James Longstreet and the Retreat from Gettysburg Karlton Smith, Gettysburg NMP After the repulse of Lt. Gen. James Longstreet’s Assault on July 3, 1863, Gen. Robert E. Lee, commanding the Army of Northern Virginia, knew that the only option left for him at Gettysburg was to try to disengage from his lines and return with his army to Virginia. Longstreet, commander of the army’s First Corps and Lee’s chief lieutenant, would play a significant role in this retrograde movement. As a preliminary to the general withdrawal, Longstreet decided to pull his troops back from the forward positions gained during the fighting on July 2. Lt. Col. G. Moxley Sorrel, Longstreet’s adjutant general, delivered the necessary orders to Maj. Gen. Lafayette McLaws, commanding one of Longstreet’s divisions. Sorrel offered to carry the order to Brig. Gen. Evander M. Law, commanding John B. Hood’s division, on McLaws’s right. McLaws raised objections to this order. He felt that his advanced position was important and “had been won after a deadly struggle; that the order was given no doubt because of [George] Pickett’s repulse, but as there was no pursuit there was no necessity of it.” Sorrel interrupted saying: “General, there is no discretion allowed, the order is for you to retire at once.” Gen. James Longstreet, C.S.A. (LOC) As McLaws’s forward line was withdrawing to Warfield and Seminary ridges, the Federal batteries on Little Round Top opened fire, “but by quickening the pace the aim was so disturbed that no damage was done.” McLaws’s line was followed by “clouds of skirmishers” from the Federal Army of the Potomac; however, after reinforcing his own skirmish line they were driven back from the Peach Orchard area. -

Sir Horace Rumbold and Japan (1909-1913)
SIR HORACE RUMBOLD AND JAPAN (1909-1913) Preface Sir Horace George Montagu Rumbold (1869-1941) was a distinguished British diplomat1. He was the Ambassador to Berlin between 1928 and 1933, and well-known as having warned the British Government of the danger of Hitler and National-socialism at the very early stages of the rise of Nazism. Harold Nicolson dedicated the first edition of Diplomacy to him, describing Rumbold as “an ideal diplomatist2.” Rumbold had a colorful diplomatic career. He was at the centre of intelligence and diplomatic activity as the Minister at Bern during the First World War, inaugurated the official relations between Britain and then newly resuscitated Poland after the war, and headed the British delegation at the reconvened Lausanne Conference in 1923. He was also an expert on evacuation; evacuated embassy for three times, in Berlin, Warsaw, and Constantinople. Less known is the fact that he had served as the Counsellor in the Tokyo Embassy from 1909 to 1913. He had been Chargé d’Affaires there three times and had a lot of occasions to talk with the Japanese foreign ministers and prime ministers. He also had an audience of Emperor Yoshihito, although it was rare for the Chargé d’Affaires to be offered such an occasion3. In those days Japan was eager to establish a foothold in 1 Martin Gilbert, Sir Horace Rumbold, Heinemann, 1973, and T. G. Otte, Sir Horace Rumbold, Oxford Dictionary of National Biography, Oxford University Press, 2004 are useful for knowing his life. The descriptions of this paper are based on the former if we do not mention otherwise. -
THE WAR of 1812 in CLAY COUNTY, ALABAMA by Don C. East
THE WAR OF 1812 IN CLAY COUNTY, ALABAMA By Don C. East BACKGROUND The War of 1812 is often referred to as the “Forgotten War.” This conflict was overshadowed by the grand scale of the American Revolutionary War before it and the American Civil War afterwards. We Americans fought two wars with England: the American Revolutionary War and the War of 1812. Put simply, the first of these was a war for our political freedom, while the second was a war for our economic freedom. However, it was a bit more complex than that. In 1812, the British were still smarting from the defeat of their forces and the loss of their colonies to the upstart Americans. Beyond that, the major causes of the war of 1812 were the illegal impressments of our ships’ crewmen on the high seas by the British Navy, Great Britain’s interference with our trade and other trade issues, and the British incitement of the Native Americans to hostilities against the Americans along the western and southeast American frontiers. Another, often overlooked cause of this war was it provided America a timely excuse to eliminate American Indian tribes on their frontiers so that further westward expansion could occur. This was especially true in the case of the Creek Nation in Alabama so that expansion of the American colonies/states could move westward into the Mississippi Territories in the wake of the elimination of the French influence there with the Louisiana Purchase of 1803, and the Spanish influence, with the Pinckney Treaty of 1796. Now the British and the Creek Nation were the only ones standing in the way of America’s destiny of moving the country westward into the Mississippi Territories. -

UNIT 7 (P. 222-235) CHAPTER 6: MOTOWN POP AND SOUTHERN SOUL Intro Until early 60’s, many African-Americans blocks from mainstream success by white covers o Majority of African-American recording artists signed to independent labels, and recordings’ popularity could be easily eclipsed by major label versions British invasion bands took much of early inspiration from African-American popular music By 1965, situation in youth-music market had significantly improved for black artists wanting mainstream hits Among most important developments was music that came from Motown Records (independent company; most important era of success parallels that of the Beatles) and the emergence of southern soul from Memphis American rock press that emerged in mid-60’s often cast Motown as black pop music that made too many concessions to white sensibilities – selling out its “blackness” to make money in white market; while southern soul portrayed as music that makes no excuses for its blackness, staying closer to origins in black culture o Perception of racial authenticity after music accepted into white mainstream o Crossover so prevalent; December ’63 – January ’65, Billboard stopped tracking R&B charts separately Berry Gordy, Jr. and Black Music for White Audiences Go Where the Money Is: White Kids and Disposable Income Berry Gordy, Jr.: professional boxer in Detroit area, worked for father’s construction company, owned a record store, and worked on Ford assembly line; spent a lot of time in Detroit’s jazz clubs – jazz = not key to success in music
