  • Economic History of the American Revolution?
    A (New) Economic History of the American Revolution? emma rothschild HEY were “merchants, lawyers, planters and preachers,” T Bernard Bailyn wrote of the individuals whose “ideas, be- liefs, fears and aspirations” are the subject of The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution.Theywere“heavilyen- gaged in their regular occupations”; they were individuals with economic lives.1 But their ideas and fears were not, for the most part, economic ideas, and Ideological Origins is—at first sight—an assertively uneconomic inquiry. Only at first sight. To look again, I would like to suggest, is to see that Ideological Origins can be the opportunity for a new sort of economic history of the American Revolution, or at least for a new history of economic life, in which life is taken to include ideas as well as interests. When Bailyn’s The New England Merchants in the Seventeenth Century was published in 1955, it was described in the Journal of Economic History as “good old-fashioned economic history”; an inquiry into “who the merchants were and how their interests and ideas grew,” with “provocative sidelights” on “politics and culture.”2 In Ideological Origins, after fifty years, there is the prospect of a new-fashioned economic history, of ideas, interests, and expectations. 1Bernard Bailyn, The Ideological Origins of the American Revolution, fiftieth an- niversary edition (Cambridge, MA: Harvard University Press, 2017) v, xxi, xxiv, 13–14 (hereafter cited as Ideological Origins). 2Robert A.

Itis designed for those who esteemed and appreciated one who was never happier than when engaged in some labor of love for his friends or for the unfortunate. Charles Edward Wiggin was born No­ vember 29, 1813, in a part of Newmarket, New Hampshire, then known as the New Fields, which has since been separated into a town called South Newmarket. He came to Boston August 31, 1828, when he was nearly fifteen years old. His first home after marriage (1840) was at 70 Prince Street; but after a few years he removed to the house on Sheafe Street, now numbered fifteen ;and there the family resided till the summer of 1876, when they removed to 9 Woodville Square, Roxbury, where Mr. Wiggin died. 6 He was the fifth of seven children, and was the last survivor of them all. There were two sisters: Deborah Barker, who married Daniel Rundlett Smith, of the same town ; and Ann Martin, who never married.

  • The Long-Ago Squadrons of Cambridge
    The Long-ago Squadrons of Cambridge Michael Kenney Cambridge Historical Commission January 2017 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS This project was triggered by noting a curious description of early land divisions in Cambridge — “squadrons” — while reading an early draft of Building Old Cambridge. Co-author Charles M. Sullivan suggested that I investigate the use of that term in colonial Massachusetts. The results of that investigation are presented in this paper. Thanks are due to Sullivan, and also to his British colleague Roger Thompson. Others who aided my research with their comments included Christopher J. Lenney and Brian Donahue whose contributions are noted in the text. The reconstructed map appears in Building Old Cambridge. Sara Kenney gave a careful reading and many helpful suggestions. “Squadrons” is a curious term that shows up in the early records of Cambridge and a number of other towns in Middlesex County and eastern Worcester County. Its curiousness comes from the fact that not only is it a term that had disappeared from use by the late 1700s and apparently appears nowhere else, but also that its origin is obscure. In Cambridge it was used in 1683, 1707 and 1724 to describe divisions of land. Recent research in other town histories finds that “squadron” was used either for that purpose or to describe what soon became known as school districts. In only three of the towns studied so far did it have the military significance which it has today, and which it had in England as early as 1562. Left unanswered is the question of why this term appeared in New England by 1636 (in Watertown) and had disappeared by 1794 (in Chelmsford) — and why it was apparently used only in Middlesex County and nearby Worcester County, as well as one very early use in New Haven, Connecticut.

A complete campaign setting, Roma Arcana, is ready to use in your own campaign. It can stand on its own, or fit into the Infinite Worlds campaign frame- work from GURPS Fourth Edition.
