REGISTER INDEX A GUIDE TO THE USE OF THIS INDEX WILL BE FOUND IN THE PREFACE PREFACE The Subject Index to Volumes 1-50 of the New-England His- torical and Genealogical Register is designed to aid searchers in finding material in these volumes as directly and quickly as possible. Entries. Entries are not made for every subject word, but only where material is actually to be found. Biographical entries can be supplemented by the Index of Persons in case every reference to a personal name is desired geographical entries can be similarly sup- ; plemented by the forthcoming Index of Places ; entries for purely historical material are complete in themselves. For the bibliographical matter in the Register, namely book- notices, entry is made under author or editor, if given ; if not, under subject or title, except in the case of periodicals which are entered under title only. In addition, all books with genealogical or his- torical bearing are entered under subjects. Title entries are made for old and rare books, and other important books having striking titles. Page reference is given only to that page on which an article begins, and the extent of the article is approximately indicated by the words : note, notice, memoir, etc. Arrangement. The main arrangement is alphabetical, but to gain clearness subheads are often arranged logically rather than alphabetically. The following plan has been adopted for the arrangement of material on families, in order to obtain at once a grouping of this ma- terial and an entry under individual forms of spelling: the main entry is made under the most common form of name, as evident from material indexed, with cross references from other forms used. Under this main entry, where there are variants, the most common form is (Vii) viii PREFACE followed by the less common forms alphabetically arranged, with gen- eral material under the chosen form at the end (see, for illustration,! Locke, p. 152). Where the variations in the spelling of a surname consist simply of one or two letters, these forms are often combined I by the use of parentheses, and the Christian names, regardless of form of surname, are arranged in one alphabet under this heading (see, for I illustration, Clark(e), p. 52). In a few cases where variants fall together alphabetically this grouping is not indicated. Persons having the same Christian names and surnames are kept separate and arranged chronologically as far as possible. An indi- vidual as author or contributor is distinguished from the individual as subject by the use of italic type for the author or contributor's Christian names. Titles of honor are retained to aid in distinguish- ing individuals, but they are not allowed to affect alphabetical arrangement. Christian names are spelled as they appear in the Register. Women are entered under their married name, unless the subject matter concerns them simply under their maiden name. Geographical material is entered under the modern form of name. In the case of cities and towns, and in a few other instances, the entries under the old name are grouped after the general or modern entries. Here, as throughout the Index, cross references are inserted so that the searcher need look in two places at most to find the original object of his quest. The relation between headings and subheadings is brought out by indention. The first indention is used for Christian names and for subdivisions of material under families and subjects. The second indention is used for subordinate material under Christian names, and under family and subject subheadings. Type. Three kinds of type are employed : bold-face for names of families as headings, and for volume numbers ; italic for Christian names of authors and contributors, and for the words noticed (used for book notices), see, see also, and in (in analytical references) ; roman for names of places, subject headings, and all other matter. PREFACE ix Punctuation and Capitals. As little punctuation as consistent with clearness is used. Punctuation is considered unnecessary in such places as, for instance, after the Christian name of an author (in italics), or before noticed, often before dates, and between the volume and page references. Initial capitals are employed for the names of Societies and Society periodicals ; but in other cases as few capitals are used as propriety permits.

ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I take special pleasure in acknowledging the assistance that I have received in completing this project. After a career in higher education and local government, I retired and began working on a degree in history at the University of Missouri. My age – I was 63 when I started – was unusual, but I am also blind. Both the faculty with whom I worked and the UM support staff gave me the assistance and encouragement that made possible the research and analysis necessary to complete a dissertation. The people with whom I have worked at the University of Missouri are genuinely competent; but beyond that, they are thoroughly generous and kind. I am very happy to have this occasion to sincerely thank each of them. I had the good fortune to have the direction in my research of John Wigger, a fine scholar and a caring man.

  • The Strongs of Strongsville John Stou,Ghton Strong
    The Strongs of Strongsville DESCENDANTS OF John Stou,ghton Strong .,, - - and Eliphalet Strong Supplementary to the History of the Strong Family, by Benjamin W. Dwight By Albert Strong Fort Dodge, Iowa, 1931 JOHN STOUGHTON STRONG Died February 23, 1863, aged 91 years. FOREWORD. The Strongs generally hold to the sensible American opinion that while family descent is of itself no reason for personal conceit, yet a worthy ancestry is to be prized as an example and incentive. Interest in genealogy is rapidly increasing, and it was chiefly the thought that so many facts and dates, readily available now, would be utterly lost a generation hence, that led to this attempt to bridge for future searchers of our branch of the family the sixty-year gulf between the completion of Dwight's History in 1870 and the present. Family research, even on a limited scale, cannot succeed without assistance and encouragement, credit for which is particularly due in this case to Sy<l.ney Strong, of Seattle, Wash.; Edward A. Strong, of Minneapolis, Minn.; Gilbert W. Amidon, of Stafford Springs, Conn.; Mrs. Helen Strong Aylard, of Medina, Ohio; Mrs. Harriet Strong Clark, of Cleveland, Ohio; Mrs. Mabel Strong Wilkins, of Sylvania, Ohio, and Mrs. Nellie Strong Reid, of Genoa, Ill. Acknowledgment is made to the History of Strongsville ( edition 1901) for many facts and dates, and Dwight's History of the Strong Family is of course the main dependence for the earlier generations. In spite of some errors which, as was to have been expected, have developed during the sixty years since he wrote, the fact remains that without his work we would have no connected history of the family as a whole.

  • Rev. John White, the Founder of New England Launching the Journey Towards Unitarianism
    Rev. John White, The Founder of New England Launching the Journey Towards Unitarianism The founder of New England never saw its shores. John White was his name. He was the rector of St. Peters and Holy Trinity Parishes in Dorchester, the small county town of Devon in the West of England. He set into motion the movement that culminated in the establishment of the Massachusetts Bay Colony. There had been several visitors to the coast for nearly a century before White began his endeavors, Champlain, Cabot, Smith, and Gosnold among them. Temporary trading posts were established with the goal of exploiting such resources as furs and fish. But there was no vision of establishing permanent settlements in the region. While a group of Separatists had landed on Cape Cod Bay in 1620, they had set out from Leiden after years of self-imposed exile in The Netherlands. They did pause briefly in Plymouth in Devon; they had little connection with any larger organized group in England. They survived in Plymouth in Massachusetts. Captain John Smith, after his initial efforts in Jamestown, became an advocate for more permanent settlements. But, unlike the so-called Pilgrims, those that were planted were not based on religious convictions. Samuel Eliot Morrison in his Builders of the Bay Colony mentions several. “Massachusetts (named by Captain John Smith) was dotted with petty fishing and trading stations. There was William Blaxton, who set up bachelor quarters on the eminence later known as Beacon Hill, Thomas Watford, the pioneer of Charlestown; Samuel Maverick at Winnesimmit (now Chelsea), David Thompson, a Scots gentleman, who settled the island in Boston harbor that still bears his name…” (Morrison, p.

The Latitudinarian Influence on Early English Liberalism Amanda Oh Professor Wellman HIST 4300: Junior Seminar 30 April 2018 Part I: Introduction The end of the seventeenth century in England saw the flowering of liberal ideals that turned on new beliefs about the individual, government, and religion. At that time the relationship between these cornerstones of society fundamentally shifted. The result was the preeminence of the individual over government and religion, whereas most of Western history since antiquity had seen the manipulation of the individual by the latter two institutions. Liberalism built on the idea that both religion and government were tied to the individual. Respect for the individual entailed respect for religious diversity and governing authority came from the assent of the individual.

  • Provenance: What Is It and Why Do We Care?
    Provenance: What is it and why do we care? What is it? PROVENANCE: “The pedigree of a book’s previous ownership. This may be clearly marked by the owner’s name, arms, bookplate, or evidence in the book itself; or it may have to be pieced together from such outside sources as auction records or booksellers’ catalogues.” --John Carter, ABC for Book Collectors (Oak Knoll Press, 1998) Why do we care? “Recorded ownership in a particular book at a particular time can tell us something about both owner and text; it can allow us to make deductions about the tastes, intellectual abilities or financial means of the owner, and it can show the reception of the text at different periods of history. If the book is annotated, we can see further into that world of private relationship between reader and text, and the impact of books in their contemporary contexts.” --David Pearson, Books as History (British Library, 2008) What are the common types of provenance? “There are numerous ways in which people have left traces of their ownership in books; they have written their names on the title page, they have pasted in printed bookplates, they have put their names or arms on the binding, they have used codes and mottos.” --David Pearson, Books as History (British Library, 2008) How do we explore? Each copy of a particular title has its own history. If a book, such as Thomas Paine’s Common Sense, is published in 1776, then each surviving individual copy of that work has its own 240- plus year history.

To be a philosopher was to be one who systematically inquired into nature, often in ways that we would today consider science. e Society’s purpose was thus to “promote useful knowledge” by bringing the greatest thinkers in the British colonies together to share all that they knew and were learning.

    2 In memory of Jeffrey Martin Whittock (1927–2013), much-loved and respected father and papa. 3 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS A number of people provided valuable advice which assisted in the preparation of this book; without them, of course, carrying any responsibility for the interpretations offered by the book. We are particularly indebted to our agent Robert Dudley who, as always, offered guidance and support, as did Simon Hamlet and Mark Beynon at The History Press. In addition, Bradford-on-Avon library, and the Wiltshire and the Somerset Library services, provided access to resources through the inter-library loans service. For their help and for this service we are very grateful. Through Hannah’s undergraduate BA studies and then MPhil studies in the department of Anglo-Saxon, Norse and Celtic (ASNC) at Cambridge University (2008–12), the invaluable input of many brilliant academics has shaped our understanding of this exciting and complex period of history, and its challenging sources of evidence. The resulting familiarity with Old English, Old Norse and Insular Latin has greatly assisted in critical reflection on the written sources. As always, the support and interest provided by close family and friends cannot be measured but is much appreciated. And they have been patient as meal-time conversations have given way to discussions of the achievements of Alfred and Athelstan, the impact of Eric Bloodaxe and the agendas of the compilers of the 4 Anglo-Saxon Chronicle. 5 CONTENTS Title Dedication Acknowledgements Introduction 1 The Gathering

  • The Winter Camp of the Viking Great Army, Ad 872–3, Torksey, Lincolnshire
    The Antiquaries Journal, 96, 2016, pp 23–67 © The Society of Antiquaries of London, 2016 doi:10.1017⁄s0003581516000718 THE WINTER CAMP OF THE VIKING GREAT ARMY, AD 872–3, TORKSEY, LINCOLNSHIRE Dawn M Hadley, FSA, and Julian D Richards, FSA, with contributions by Hannah Brown, Elizabeth Craig-Atkins, Diana Mahoney-Swales, Gareth Perry, Samantha Stein and Andrew Woods Dawn M Hadley, Department of Archaeology, University of Sheffield, Northgate House, West Street, Sheffield S14ET, UK. Email: d.m.hadley@sheffield.ac.uk Julian D Richards, Department of Archaeology, University of York, The King’s Manor, York YO17EP, UK. Email: [email protected] This paper presents the results of a multidisciplinary project that has revealed the location, extent and character of the winter camp of the Viking Great Army at Torksey, Lincolnshire, of AD 872–3. The camp lay within a naturally defended area of higher ground, partially surrounded by marshes and bordered by the River Trent on its western side. It is considerably larger than the Viking camp of 873–4 previously excavated at Repton, Derbyshire, and lacks the earthwork defences identified there. Several thousand individuals overwintered in the camp, including warriors, craftworkers and merchants. An exceptionally large and rich metalwork assemblage was deposited during the Great Army’s overwintering, and metal processing and trading was undertaken. There is no evidence for a pre-existing Anglo-Saxon trading site here; the site appears to have been chosen for its strategic location and its access to resources. In the wake of the overwintering, Torksey developed as an important Anglo-Saxon borough with a major wheel-thrown pottery industry and multiple churches and cemeteries.

  • King of the Danes’ Stephen M
    Hamlet with the Princes of Denmark: An exploration of the case of Hálfdan ‘king of the Danes’ Stephen M. Lewis University of Caen Normandy, CRAHAM [email protected] As their military fortunes waxed and waned, the Scandinavian armies would move back and forth across the Channel with some regularity [...] appearing under different names and in different constellations in different places – Neil Price1 Little is known about the power of the Danish kings in the second half of the ninth century when several Viking forces ravaged Frankia and Britain – Niels Lund2 The Anglo-Saxon scholar Patrick Wormald once pointed out: ‘It is strange that, while students of other Germanic peoples have been obsessed with the identity and office of their leaders, Viking scholars have said very little of such things – a literal case of Hamlet without princes of Denmark!’3 The reason for this state of affairs is two-fold. First, there is a dearth of reliable historical, linguistic and archaeological evidence regarding the origins of the so-called ‘great army’ in England, except that it does seem, and is generally believed, that they were predominantly Danes - which of course does not at all mean that they all they came directly from Denmark itself, nor that ‘Danes’ only came from the confines of modern Denmark. Clare Downham is surely right in saying that ‘the political history of vikings has proved controversial due to a lack of consensus as to what constitutes reliable evidence’.4 Second, the long and fascinating, but perhaps ultimately unhealthy, obsession with the legendary Ragnarr loðbrók and his litany of supposed sons has distracted attention from what we might learn from a close and separate examination of some of the named leaders of the ‘great army’ in England, without any inferences being drawn from later Northern sagas about their dubious familial relationships to one another.5 This article explores the case of one such ‘Prince of Denmark’ called Hálfdan ‘king of the Danes’.
