1999 Captioned — Littell Family Gathers at City Park for 75 Time Littell Families of America A non-profit Family Association Littell Families of America evolved from several informal picnics during the 1960s and was formally incorporated as a non-profit association in the State of Indiana in 1972. BOARD OF DIRECTORS Frederick Moore Littell, Chairman of the Board, 190 Appletree Road, Winnetka, IL 60093 (Deceased) Noble Kieth Littell, President and Historian, 1219 KatCaLani Avenue, Sebring, FL 33870 William Adams Littell, Jr, Treasurer, 490 Woodscreek Ct, Moriches, NY 11955 Alison Littell McHose, Co-Editor, Littells's Living Age, P.O.

I am at fault for thrusting such a task upon her and not being around to give her help and support as I should have been. The year 2000 has been a hectic one for me with the terminal illness of my daughter Chere. My health has been as good as can be expected but the depression that accommodates the loss of a child has reduced my desire to forge ahead as in the past. Alison tried to do the necessary chores to bring this issue to a timely publication but the life and the tasks of one working in the office of an influential and busy New Jersey state senator precluded her from devoting the necessary hours to the task. She is a legislative aide in the office of her father, Senator Robert Eugene Littell, makes a home for her husband and tends to the demanding needs of a two year old son. I am not certain as to the future of this magazine and I personally apologize for the format of this issue as I have not been able to adequately organize the contents. There is someone amongst the many Littell descendants who would like to have a sounding board in which to present their views of family history and genealogy, and has the available time, who will step forward and carry on this publication that has overcome trials tribulations, prosecutions, bankruptcy, and many obstacles since 1843. Alison is listed as co-editor as a good portion of what follows was prepared by her. Alison Elizabeth Littell was born in Newton, New Jersey, the first child of Robert Eugene and Virginia (Newman) Littell. Her Littell roots in Sussex County are deep , she is of the 9 generation of John Littell. Her political roots are also well entrenched, her great grandfather, Watson Littell, was on the first Borough Council in Franklin. Her grandfather, Alfred B. Littell, was Mayor of Franklin, State Assemblyman, State Senator, president of Franklin, State Assemblyman, State Senator, president of the Senate and Acting Governor of New Jersey. Her father, Robert Eugene Littell, served as State Assemblyman and is currently a State Senator, the dean of the New Jersey legislature having served over thirty years. Alison is a graduate of the University of Maryland with a degree in Government and Politics. She lived and worked in Washington, DC for eight years before moving back to New Jersey in 1995. She served four years in the Bush administration. She met her husband, Morgan McHose, while in Washington, he is also a University of Maryland graduate. They were married in 1993 and have the one son, Logan Littell McHose, born in 1998. Additional activities include service on the Franklin Economic Development Committee; Franklin Historical Society; and the Junior League of Morristown. Morgan, Alison, & Logan McHose REUNIONS An informal gathering of the Littells was hosted by Bill and Gloria Littell the third week of August 2000 at the Littell Horse Farm in Beaver County, Pennsylvania.

He had risen to the rank of brigadier during the war and was chosen sheriff of the county several times. It was at the General Littell farm that the current series of reunions was revived in 1967.

Ryan, S.J. Laurence J. McGinley Professor of Religion and Society Fordham University The American comic writer and cartoonist, James Thurber (1894-1961), created a series of cartoons for The New Yorker more than sixty years ago under the general title, “The Battle of the Sexes.” It had no connection with later tennis games. Thurber was gradually losing his eyesight at the time and sometimes the cartoons arrived at their hilarious captions because of mistakes he had made in draftsmanship. I liked one in particular called “The Fight in the Grocery” which showed men and women firing bottles and cans at each other in the aisles of a small supermarket. In the Mesopotamian valley 6000 years ago, the battle of the sexes was a struggle between male and female gods. In the Akkadian creation epic, Enuma elish, the ordered cosmos is imaged as the result of previous violent interactions within the assembly of divine cosmic forces.1 When the mother-chaos figure, Ti’amat, imaginatively associated with the salt sea, resents the noise made by the younger generation of gods, war ensues.

Benjamin Henry Latrobe was born in 1764 at Fulneck in Yorkshire. He was the Second son of the Reverend Benjamin Latrobe (1728 - 86), a minister of the Moravian church, and Anna Margaretta (Antes) Latrobe (1728 - 94), a third generation Pennsylvanian of Moravian Parentage. The original Latrobes had been French Huguenots who had settled in Ireland at the end of the 17th Century. Whilst he is most noted for his work on The White House and the Capitol in Washington, he introduced the Greek Revival as the style of American National architecture. He built Baltimore cathedral, not only the first Roman Catholic Cathedral in America but also the first vaulted church and is, perhaps, Latrobes finest monument. Hammerwood Park achieves importance as his first complete work, the first of only two in this country and one of only five remaining domestic buildings by Latrobe in existence. It was built as a temple to Apollo, dedicated as a hunting lodge to celebrate the arts and incorporating elements related to Demeter, mother Earth, in relation to the contemporary agricultural revolution.
