Index to Episcopal Church Records 1820 - 1851 INDEX TO EPISCOPAL CHURCH RECORDS 1820 - 1851 ST. LUKE'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH ST. PAUL'S EPISCOPAL CHURCH TRINITY EPISCOPAL CHURCH ROCHESTER, NEW YORK Prepared and published by members of the Rochester Genealogical Society, 1982 Digitized and re-formatted 2007 PREFACE This book is more than an index of the Episcopal church records of Rochester between 1820 and 1851. In all cases nothing was left out of the citation that could, in any way, be of help to the researcher. In some cases the whole citation was too long to be included but all dates, places and names are given. The names of the sponsors, witnesses and mother's maiden names were not indexed but always appear in the citation exactly as given in the original record. No names were left out. As in the old handwriting, some of it was difficult to read so three or more indexers studied any questionable names to insure as accurate a spelling as possible. In most cases alternate spellings of surnames are not listed together. All entries were checked at least three times. Therefore it is felt that this is an exceptionally accurate abstract of these most important records. The appreciation of the Rochester Genealogical Society goes to all its members who spent many hours organizing, indexing, typing, proofreading and putting it all together. Also our thanks to the churches involved for their help and encouragement.

The name of the new church was "St Luke's - Genesee Falls" with Colonel Nathaniel Rochester named Senior Warden and Samuel Andrews, Junior Warden. The group continued to meet in the schoolhouse for the next three years until the first church was built. This first church building was a wooden structure, 38 x 46 feet containing 40 pews and was erected at a cost of $1460. Four years later the present church was built and the cornerstone was laid on the 11th of May 1824. The first worship service was held there on September 4th of the same year. St Luke's Episcopal Church has been strengthened and reconditioned several times and it is now the oldest public building in the city of Rochester.

  • The Antiphonary of Bangor and Its Musical Implications
    The Antiphonary of Bangor and its Musical Implications by Helen Patterson A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto © Copyright by Helen Patterson 2013 The Antiphonary of Bangor and its Musical Implications Helen Patterson Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Music University of Toronto 2013 Abstract This dissertation examines the hymns of the Antiphonary of Bangor (AB) (Antiphonarium Benchorense, Milan, Biblioteca Ambrosiana C. 5 inf.) and considers its musical implications in medieval Ireland. Neither an antiphonary in the true sense, with chants and verses for the Office, nor a book with the complete texts for the liturgy, the AB is a unique Irish manuscript. Dated from the late seventh-century, the AB is a collection of Latin hymns, prayers and texts attributed to the monastic community of Bangor in Northern Ireland. Given the scarcity of information pertaining to music in early Ireland, the AB is invaluable for its literary insights. Studied by liturgical, medieval, and Celtic scholars, and acknowledged as one of the few surviving sources of the Irish church, the manuscript reflects the influence of the wider Christian world. The hymns in particular show that this form of poetical expression was significant in early Christian Ireland and have made a contribution to the corpus of Latin literature. Prompted by an earlier hypothesis that the AB was a type of choirbook, the chapters move from these texts to consider the monastery of Bangor and the cultural context from which the manuscript emerges. As the Irish peregrini are known to have had an impact on the continent, and the AB was recovered in ii Bobbio, Italy, it is important to recognize the hymns not only in terms of monastic development, but what they reveal about music.

  • Tom Laduca ‘72 - a Park Avenue Pioneer
    Tom LaDuca ‘72 - A Park Avenue Pioneer ochester’s Park Avenue simply isn’t what it used to be. That’s not to Rsuggest there’s anything wrong along this trendy thoroughfare—quite the contrary. The evolution of Park Avenue over the years makes it one of the city’s most desirable neighborhoods. Tom LaDuca ‘72 had a big impact on that transformation. As the owner of Hogan’s Hideaway, the College of Business alumnus helped launch a casu- ally elegant style of dining that makes the area a popular destination. His restaurant offers a wide-ranging menu, with items made from scratch on premises. But LaDuca says high quality food is only part of the experience. People enjoy coming to Hogan’s and Park Avenue to take in the eclectic mix of commercial and residential activity. “You can’t get the atmosphere—that certain ambiance—at the suburban chain restaurants,” explains LaDuca. “What you do get there is consistency. Walk into any chain, and you can sit in Tom LaDuca ‘72 and daughter Kelly Marie ‘03 pose in front of Hogan’s Hideaway. the same place, look at the same picture.

After the ‘discovery’ of African pygmies in the 1860s, little people became a powerful way of imaginatively connecting to an inconceivably distant past, and the place of humans within it. Little people in fin de siècle narratives have been commonly interpreted as atavistic, stunted warnings of biological reversion. I suggest that there are other readings available: by deploying two nineteenth-century anthropological theories – E. B. Tylor’s doctrine of ‘survivals’, and euhemerism, a model proposing that the mythology surrounding fairies was based on the existence of real ‘little people’ – they can also be read as positive symbols of the tenacity of the human spirit, and as offering access to a sacred, spiritual, or magic, world.

Cowan EDINBURGH printed for the Scottish History Society by T. AND A. CONSTABLE LTD 1976 Scottish History Society 1976 SIO^MY^ c 19 77 ,5 ISBN 9500260 8 5 Printed in Great Britain PREFACE The Great Schism, which originated in a disputed papal election, has always been regarded as one of the most crucial periods in the history of western Christendom, and to this day that election remains the greatest unresolved controversy of the later Middle Ages. The stand taken by the Scottish nation throughout the Schism was particu- larly significant, yet, until recently, Scottish historians had explored only inadequately the original sources existing in the Vatican Archives. During the academic year 1961-2, the University of Glasgow awarded me a research scholarship with the specific aim of examining the letter-books, or registers, of one of the rival popes, and of noting systematically all the entries concerning Scotland. A microfilm of this source material is deposited with the Department of Scottish History. This project was instrumental in introducing me to the late Dr Annie I. Dunlop. It won her immediate and enthusiastic approval and she followed its progress with lively interest. Only a few months before her death, Dr Dunlop asked me, if I was still working hard for Scotland ! This Calendar of Papal Letters of Clement vn of Avignon relating to Scotland is the result of that work.

One aspect of this process was the increasing abundance of flowers in churches in defiance of opinions which regarded such practices as incompatible with Protestantism. Such opposition also drew strength from cultural associations between flowers and dangerously alluring femininity and sexuality. It was popularly feared that priests were using flowers to lure women into their clutches. The medievalising work of Pugin and the members of the Ecclesiological Society played a major role in the moral legitimisation of both flowers and floral motifs in the decoration of churches.

The Institution and Welcoming of The Reverend Hugh Bowron as Vicar of the Parish of St. Peter’s, Caversham by The Right Reverend Kelvin Wright Bishop of Dunedin On the Feast of the Presentation of the Lord in the Temple. The Church of St Peter, Caversham, Thursday, February 2, 2012, 7pm. Processional Hymn: Of the Father's heart begotten, Ere the world from chaos rose, He is Alpha, from that Fountain All that is and has been flows; He is Omega, of all things, Yet to come the distant Close, Evermore and evermore for ever. By His word was all created He commanded and 'twas done; Earth and sky and boundless ocean, Universe of three in one, All that sees the moon's soft radiance, All that breathes beneath the sun, Evermore and evermore. He assumed this mortal body, Frail and feeble, doomed to die, That the race from dust created, Might not perish utterly, Which the dreadful Law had sentenced In the depths of hell to lie, Evermore and evermore. O how blest that wondrous birthday, When the Maid the curse retrieved, Brought to birth mankind's salvation By the Holy Ghost conceived, And the Babe, the world's Redeemer In her loving arms received, Evermore and evermore. Sing, ye heights of heaven, his praises; Angels and Archangels, sing! Wheresoe’er ye be, ye faithful, Let your joyous anthems ring, Every tongue his name confessing, Countless voices answering, Evermore and evermore. Words: Corde Natus - Prudentius (trans. R.F.

I hope this dissertation justifies his words and my decision to come to Serbia. Protojerej stavrofor Budimir Zekanović, BBA, for his unselfish support and counsel. Michael Gilleland for directing my attention to certain classical texts. Dr. Sandy MacGillivray, for his encouragement and help. Dr. Richard Kernaghan, University of Florida, for his assistance.
