Nichols [1802-1842], dec., abt. 6 acres. 1 Levi Flint (1807-1891) was the father of Eleanor Frances Flint (1841-1893), wife of Allan Cameron (1822-1900) and mother of Donald McLennan Allan Cameron (1873-1930). 16:321-322 Stephen N. [& Sally Samuel H. Nichols 15 Feb 1834 For $1,000, two parcels: (1) abt. 5 M.] Nichols acres in middle of Westford on road to Chelmsford abutting land of George Davis & land of Isaiah Leighton, dec. [not sure this is the 63 Main St. parcel]; (2) mowing & pasture land 1 mile NWly of Meeting House, 30 acres. The 1831 map of Westford (above left) shows a house located about where 63 Main is now located. The 1853-55 Symmes map of Westford (above right) shows the F. K. Proctor house on the southeasterly side of Main St. Perhaps this is the same location as the house in the 1831 map. There was certainly a house at that location by 27 Jul 1842 when Samuel H. Nichols died, leaving his homestead mentioned in the 1845 deed from his two daughters to Levi Flint. Samuel H. Nichols was described as a carpenter and as a housewright so it is quite likely that he either built or rebuilt the house on this site. Samuel died intestate. His brother, Stephen N. Nichols of Charlestown, Mass., was appointed Administrator of Samuel’s estate. On 26 Jul 1842 John W. P. Abbot, Esquire, George Davis, yeoman, and Josiah Webber, carpenter, all of Westford, were appointed to take an inventory of Samuel’s estate. Samuel’s homestead “with the buildings and about 5 acres of land” was valued at $2000; about 30 acres of mowing tillage pasture and meadow land about ¼ of a mile distant from the house was valued at $500.

  • 6 Women Scientists Who Were Snubbed Due to Sexism Despite Enormous Progress in Recent Decades, Women Still Have to Deal with Biases Against Them in the Sciences
    6 Women Scientists Who Were Snubbed Due to Sexism Despite enormous progress in recent decades, women still have to deal with biases against them in the sciences. BY JANE J. LEE, NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC PUBLISHED MAY 19, 2013 In April, National Geographic News published a story about the letter in which scientist Francis Crick described DNA to his 12-year-old son. In 1962, Crick was awarded a Nobel Prize for discovering the structure of DNA, along with fellow scientists James Watson and Maurice Wilkins. Several people posted comments about our story that noted one name was missing from the Nobel roster: Rosalind Franklin, a British biophysicist who also studied DNA. Her data were critical to Crick and Watson's work. But it turns out that Franklin would not have been eligible for the prize—she had passed away four years before Watson, Crick, and Wilkins received the prize, and the Nobel is never awarded posthumously. But even if she had been alive, she may still have been overlooked. Like many women scientists, Franklin was robbed of recognition throughout her career (See her section below for details.) She was not the first woman to have endured indignities in the male- dominated world of science, but Franklin's case is especially egregious, said Ruth Lewin Sime, a retired chemistry professor at Sacramento City College who has written on women in science. Over the centuries, female researchers have had to work as "volunteer" faculty members, seen credit for significant discoveries they've made assigned to male colleagues, and been written out of textbooks.

With a career that spans the late 60’s to present and worldwide album sales of nearly 80 million, The Moody Blues have generated a legendary list of hit songs. With almost four decades’ worth of classic rock hits to showcase, The Moody Blues will be embarking on a new 2005 nationwide summer tour, which begins June 7 and June 8 here at the Christopher Cohan Center. Cal Poly Arts and Otter Productions, Inc. present the new Center Stage musical event; curtain time for both concerts is 8 p.m. The Moody Blues’ music is widely regarded as some of the most ground breaking and innovative of our time and original band members Justin Hayward, John Lodge and Graeme Edge carry on their magical musical legacy to generation after generation, year after year. Coinciding with the tour, Universal Records has released a new Moody Blues greatest hits package entitled “Gold” -- a double-CD set of original re-mastered recordings, with titles such as “Tuesday Afternoon,” “Your Wildest Dreams,” “Nights In White Satin,” “Ride My See Saw,” “Legend Of A Mind,” “Voices In The Sky,” “Lovely To See You,” “The Voice,” “Gemini Dream,” “Gypsy (Of A Strange And Distant Time),” and many more.

  • The Moody Blues Tour / Set List Project - Updated April 9, 2006
    The Moody Blues Tour / Set List Project - updated April 9, 2006 compiled by Linda Bangert Please send any additions or corrections to Linda Bangert ([email protected]) and notice of any broken links to Neil Ottenstein ([email protected]). This listing of tour dates, set lists, opening acts, additional musicians was derived from many sources, as noted on each file. Of particular help were "Higher and Higher" magazine and their website at www.moodies- magazine.com and the Moody Blues Official Fan Club (OFC) Newsletters. For a complete listing of people who contributed, click here. Particular thanks go to Neil Ottenstein, who hosts these pages, and to Bob Hardy, who helped me get these pages converted to html. One-off live performances, either of the band as a whole or of individual members, are not included in this listing, but generally can be found in the Moody Blues FAQ in Section 8.7 - What guest appearances have the band members made on albums, television, concerts, music videos or print media? under the sub-headings of "Visual Appearances" or "Charity Appearances". The current version of the FAQ can be found at www.toadmail.com/~notten/FAQ-TOC.htm I've construed "additional musicians" to be those who played on stage in addition to the members of the Moody Blues. Although Patrick Moraz was legally determined to be a contract player, and not a member of the Moody Blues, I have omitted him from the listing of additional musicians for brevity. Moraz toured with the Moody Blues from 1978 through 1990. From 1965-1966 The Moody Blues were Denny Laine, Clint Warwick, Mike Pinder, Ray Thomas and Graeme Edge, although Warwick left the band sometime in 1966 and was briefly replaced with Rod Clarke.
