Whittenburg for his administrative and scholarly guidance, for his willingness to patiently listen to all of the problems and questions that arose during this project, and for his sage counsel toward finding solutions. Professors Leisa Meyer, Philip J. Funigiello, Ludwell H. Johnson, and Elizabeth R. Varon of Wellesley College, the other members of the committee, also gave essential advice as well as direction for broadening this project in the future. In addition, the committee members facilitated completion of this final degree requirement on relatively short notice and, for that, I am especially grateful. Family and friends merit special thanks for their belief in me and the work that occupied much of my time. My son, Brian Phipps, offered calm and thoughtful assurances. My daughter, Brandi Phipps, took an active interest in my progress and added a great deal to the project by lending her graphic design skills to the illustrations included here. Finally, I must express my heartfelt gratitude to my mother, Shirlie Islay Smith Baber, for her invaluable assistance in researching, gathering tax data, computing numbers, proofreading, and cooking for me when necessary. Her most valuable gift to me, however, has been her example of courage, upon which I have drawn countless times. iv Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner.

  • WHERE DID HUGH COME FROM? by Margaret Amundson
    WHERE DID HUGH COME FROM? By Margaret Amundson In the past, several different family historians have offered theories explaining where they thought Hugh was from in Europe. One such theory was advanced by the Reverend French Forrest, a descendant of Hugh's in answer to a Richmond Times Dispatch weekly genealogy column, popular at the turn of the last century.1[1] He said in the article the Frenches were from Rosscommon County, Ireland. Rudimentary attempts have been made to prove or disprove this theory, without results. Others have advanced the theory that he was related somehow to the George Mason family and point to the use of Mason as a given name, in the French family and French in the Mason family, as evidence of this relationship. Certainly the George Mason of Gunston Hall Family, clearly had a reason for using French as a given name. George1 Mason's mother was Ann French. His first wife is said to have been Mary French. There is evidence she was named Mary,2[2] however, nowhere is there a record that identifies her as nee French. This theory was probably advanced long before the authors of The Five George Masons, discovered the record in England showing Ann French married George1 Mason's father. Thomas Mason, his father, was a yeoman farmer in the village of Pershore, in the Vale of Eveshame, Worcestershire, England.3[3] No creditable evidence establishing a kinship tie between these two families has been found.4[4] There was not the web of interconnecting relationships typical of community structure between this Mason and French family.

  • Antislavery Violence and Secession, October 1859
    ANTISLAVERY VIOLENCE AND SECESSION, OCTOBER 1859 – APRIL 1861 by DAVID JONATHAN WHITE GEORGE C. RABLE, COMMITTEE CHAIR LAWRENCE F. KOHL KARI FREDERICKSON HAROLD SELESKY DIANNE BRAGG A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2017 Copyright David Jonathan White 2017 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the collapse of southern Unionism between October 1859 and April 1861. This study argues that a series of events of violent antislavery and southern perceptions of northern support for them caused white southerners to rethink the value of the Union and their place in it. John Brown’s raid at Harpers Ferry, Virginia, and northern expressions of personal support for Brown brought the Union into question in white southern eyes. White southerners were shocked when Republican governors in northern states acted to protect members of John Brown’s organization from prosecution in Virginia. Southern states invested large sums of money in their militia forces, and explored laws to control potentially dangerous populations such as northern travelling salesmen, whites “tampering” with slaves, and free African-Americans. Many Republicans endorsed a book by Hinton Rowan Helper which southerners believed encouraged antislavery violence and a Senate committee investigated whether an antislavery conspiracy had existed before Harpers Ferry. In the summer of 1860, a series of unexplained fires in Texas exacerbated white southern fear. As the presidential election approached in 1860, white southerners hoped for northern voters to repudiate the Republicans. When northern voters did not, white southerners generally rejected the Union.
