Roger Grant, Committee Chair C. Alan Grubb Orville V. Burton ABSTRACT Founded as a quasi-utopian society by New England evangelists, Oberlin became the central hub of extreme social reform in Ohio’s Western Reserve. Scholars have looked at Oberlin from political and cultural perspectives, but have placed little emphasis on religion. That is to say, although religion is a major highlight of secondary scholarship, few have placed the community appropriately in the dynamic of the East and West social reform movement. Historians have often ignored, or glossed over this important element and how it represented the divergence between traditional orthodoxy in New England and Middle-Atlantic states, and the new religious hybrids found in the West.

In making investigations of this family among the published genealogies of the United States I found it was one of the comparatively large families whose name appeared often in early records but one for whom no one person had ever prepared a complete report. A number of New England genealogical correspondents have stated that the history of the Rhode IslaDd Kenyons was a riddle no one had dared to start unraveling, due to the many contradictions in published references and to numer­ ous intermarriages among themselves.

  • Civil War Generals Buried in Spring Grove Cemetery by James Barnett
    Spring Grove Cemetery, once characterized as blending "the elegance of a park with the pensive beauty of a burial-place," is the final resting- place of forty Cincinnatians who were generals during the Civil War. Forty For the Union: Civil War Generals Buried in Spring Grove Cemetery by James Barnett f the forty Civil War generals who are buried in Spring Grove Cemetery, twenty-three had advanced from no military experience whatsoever to attain the highest rank in the Union Army. This remarkable feat underscores the nature of the Northern army that suppressed the rebellion of the Confed- erate states during the years 1861 to 1865. Initially, it was a force of "inspired volunteers" rather than a standing army in the European tradition. Only seven of these forty leaders were graduates of West Point: Jacob Ammen, Joshua H. Bates, Sidney Burbank, Kenner Garrard, Joseph Hooker, Alexander McCook, and Godfrey Weitzel. Four of these seven —Burbank, Garrard, Mc- Cook, and Weitzel —were in the regular army at the outbreak of the war; the other three volunteered when the war started. Only four of the forty generals had ever been in combat before: William H. Lytle, August Moor, and Joseph Hooker served in the Mexican War, and William H. Baldwin fought under Giuseppe Garibaldi in the Italian civil war. This lack of professional soldiers did not come about by chance. When the Constitutional Convention met in Philadelphia in 1787, its delegates, who possessed a vast knowledge of European history, were determined not to create a legal basis for a standing army. The founding fathers believed that the stand- ing armies belonging to royalty were responsible for the endless bloody wars that plagued Europe.

  • Charles Finney's Sanctification Model in Theological Context
    CHARLES FINNEY’S SANCTIFICATION MODEL IN THEOLOGICAL CONTEXT Gerald L. Priest, Ph.D. Charles G. Finney—colorful and controversial nineteenth century “father of modern evangelism.” Most responses to Finney fall into one of two categories—the highly critical and the highly complimentary.1 Unfavorable works usually attack Finney’s unorthodox doctrine and methods; the favorable defend him as a godly soul winner who is misunderstood or unjustly vilified by those who disagree with his “successful” methods.2 My contention is that a critical evaluation of Finney’s own writings will reveal that he is in substantial disagreement with the cardinal doctrines of Christianity, and that his revivalist methodology, when examined in that context, is a defective paradigm for evangelism and revival. I would also suggest that Finney’s teachings and methods have generally been harmful to evangelical Christianity. Fundamentalism was born out of intense opposition to theological liberalism, and so it would appear a mega-contradiction to even suggest that fundamentalists could ever be “taken in” by rationalism in any form. Yet, interestingly, George Marsden has suggested that one of the formative features of early fundamentalism was Scottish Common Sense philosophy, a moralistic rationalism which contributed to the evidentialist epistemology of early fundamentalist apologetics.3 One version of Common Sense, rooted in Princeton, did play a significant role in fundamentalism, as Ernest Sandeen and later Mark Noll sought to prove.4 But Finney’s “new 1Some works sympathetic to Finney include L. G. Parkhurst, Jr., Finney’s Theology: True to Scripture, True to Reason, True to Life (Edmon, OK: Revival Resources, 1990) and his article, “Charles Grandison Finney Preached For A Verdict,” Fundamentalist Journal 3 (June 1984), pp.

Much remains, of course, to be done on additional aspects of Pomeroyfs life and actions. Pomeroy!s name had oft "been mentioned in the river city where the writer lives. However, it generally was referred to in a derisive or ill-favored manner. Local elders could see little value in a man who tended to side with the Democrat extremists against Lincoln and the victorious Union as personified in the Republican Administration. Known for his fearless, trenchent and vindicative pen, Pomeroy, tfat least, wrote 1 in such a style that even his enemies could not resist buying his paper." The ensuing paper deals primarily with the editor's La Crosse activities, especially those during the immediate Civil War period. It is not an attempted study of the Copperhead movement as such. Rather, it seeks the reason and explanation why Pomeroy, a Douglas Democrat, supported /Lincoln in the beginning — wijth...qygQA£i^ critic and attacker, reviling the party and cursing the_JLeader. It should be pointed out that although Pomeroy, in 1864, could 2 voice a plea for Lincoln's assasination, such was not always the case.

    History 308/708, RN314/614, TX849 Religious Thought in America Fall Term, 2018 MWF: 1:25-2:15 Jon H. Roberts Office Hours: Mon. 3-5, Tues. 9-10, Office: 226 Bay State Road, Room 406 and by appointment 617-353-2557 (O); 781-209-0982 (H) [email protected] Course Description: Few concepts have proved more difficult to define than religion, but most students of the subject would agree that religious traditions commonly include rituals and other practices, aesthetic and emotional experiences, and a body of ideas typically expressed as beliefs. This course focuses on those beliefs during the course of American history from the first English colonial settlement to the present and on their interaction with the broader currents of American culture. Theology is the term often used to describe the systematic expression of religious doctrine. It is clearly possible, however, to discuss religious beliefs outside the context of formal theology, and it is at least arguable that some of the most influential beliefs in American history have received their most vivid and forceful expressions beyond the purview of theological discourse. Accordingly, while much of our attention in this course will focus on the works of theologians and clergy--the religious “professionals”--we shall also deal with religious strategies that a widely disparate group of other thinkers (e.g., scientists, artists, and other influential lay people) have deployed in attempting to account for the nature of the cosmos, the structure of the social order, and the dynamics of human experience. Most of the people whom we’ll be studying were committed proponents of Christianity or Judaism, but the course lectures and readings will also occasionally move outside of those traditions to include others.

    CHAPTER XIIT. ABORIGINAL INII9BITANTS-THE SETTERAL ILLINOIS TRIBES. THEIndians mho lived in and claimed the territory to ~vllicllonr attention is directed mere the several tribes of the Tl!inois and 3Iiarni confederacies,- the Pottawatomies, the Icickapoos and scattered bands of Sharl-nees and Delawares. Their title to the soil had to be extin- guished by conquest or treatise of purchase before the conntrr could be settled by a higher civilization ; for the habits of the t~oraces? red and n~hite,vere so radically diff'erent that there could be no fusion, and they could not, or rather did not, live either happily or at peace together. NTe proceed to treat of these several tribes, obser~-ingthe order in which their names llare been mentioned; and n-e do so in this con- nection for the reason that it will aid toward a more ready under- standing of the subjects TI-hichare to follow. Tlie Illinois were a subdivision of the great Algonquin family.

Before Joliet and Marquette's voyage to t,he Jlississippi, all of the Indians who carne from the south to the mission at La Pointe, on Lake Superior, for the purposes of barter, nere b~ the French called Illinois, for the reason that the @st Indians who came to La Pointe tkom the sontll '' culZec2 tJlenzse1ves IUinois.'' In the Jesuit Relations the name Illinois appears as '(Illi-mouek," " Illinoues," Ill-i-ne-w-ek,'? " Allin-i-wek '? and " Lin-i-wek." By Father Marquette it is "Ilinois," and Hennepin- has it the same as it is at the present day.
