MATTHEW PATTEN OF BIDDEFORD 1 II. HECTOR p A TTEN OF SACO 11 III. WILLIAM PATTEN OF Bosnrn 43 IV. RonERT PATTEN oF ARUNDEL HJ V. WILLIAM PATTEN 01<' WELLS ,·0 VI. JOHNSTON OF STROUDWATER. 89 INDEX 105 INTRODUCTION 'I'HE title of this pamphlet, The Ancestry of James Patten, is to a great extent deceptive, for on the paternal side James Patten's father is his only "ancestor" now, or likely to be, discovered, while on the maternal side we can trace a slight three generations to a shadowy great-grandfather. However, the pamphlet is the sev­ enth in a series dealing with the ancestry of my great-great­ grandparents, and for the sake of uniformity it is so entitled. Actually it deals with the descendants of six men who emigrated to New England in the early years of the eighteenth century, four of them being the brothers Matthew Patten of Biddeford, Hector Patten of Saco, Robert Patten of Arundel, and '\Villiam Patten of Boston. The fifth, ·william Patten of Wells, presumably a close kinsman of the brothers, is included as by so doing all of the Pat­ ten emigrants who settled in Maine are conveniently grouped in one volume, while the sixth, James Johnston, finds an appropriate place herein as his granddaughter was James Patten's mother. All of these men were of Scotch descent, springing from fami­ lies which left Scotland in the seventeenth century, encouraged by the British government, to settle in the northern counties of Ireland which formed the ancient kingdom of Ulster, where they became a tough and unwelcome minority.

  • Boot and Shoe Industry in Massachusetts Before 1875
    THE ORGANIZATION OF THE BOOT AND SHOE INDUSTRY IN MASSACHUSETTS BEFORE 1875 BLANCHE EVANS HAZARD PROFESSOR OF HOME ECONOMICS IN CORNELL UNIVERSITY CAMBRIDGE HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS LONDON: HUMYHREY MILFORD Oxrm Umansrn P.k~s 1921 TO THE MEMORY COPYRIC~,I 92 I OF MY HARVARD UNIVERSITY PRESS FATHER AND MOTHER PREFACE THEdevelopment of the boot and shoe industry of Massachu- setts proves to be an interesting and productive field for economic investigation, not merely because its history goes back to colonial days as one of the leading industries of the states, but more especially because the evolution of industrial organization finds here an unusually complete illustration. The change from older stages to the modem Factory Stage has been comparatively recent, and survivals of earlier forms have existed within the memory of the old men of today. Sources, direct or indirect, oral and recorded, can be woven together to establish, to limit, and to illustrate each one of these stages and the transitions of their various phases. The materials used as the basis of the conclusions given here have been gathered at first hand within the last ten years,%y the writer, in the best known shoe centres of Massachusetts, i.e., Brockton, the Brookfields, the Weymouths, the Braintrees, the Randolphs, and Lynn. The collection and use of such written and oral testimony has been attended with difficulty. No New England shoemaker of a former generation has dreamed that posterity would seek for a record of his daily work.2 Only inad- From 1~7-1917. f Exceptions to this did not occur until about 1880, when David Johnson of Lynn, and Lucy Larcom of Beverly, began to write in prose and poetry about the shoemaker's homely daily life.

De-Orientalizing Classical Ballet in the Twenty-First Century by Pamela Gendron A thesis project submitted in conformity with the requirements for the Master’s Degree in Contemporary Art Sotheby’s Institute of Art 2020 13,008 words Abstract The objective of this thesis is to examine the efficacy of strategies used to de-Orientalize canonical ballets. Of particular interest are contemporary productions of The Nutcracker, La Bayadère and Giselle. Through close readings of digitized performances, I explore the ways in which the best practices for presenting non-offensive stereotypes put forth by community leader Final Bow for Yellowface reinforce the conservative impulse of ballet rather than inspire radical change. I present an alternative option for renegotiating racial stereotypes in ballet through Akram Khan’s commissions for the English National Ballet, situating his work within Anurima Banerji’s concept of partatopic performance.
