  • Bushnell Family Genealogy, 1945
    BUSHNELL FAMILY GENEALOGY Ancestry and Posterity of FRANCIS BUSHNELL (1580 - 1646) of Horsham, England And Guilford, Connecticut Including Genealogical Notes of other Bushnell Families, whose connections with this branch of the family tree have not been determined. Compiled and written by George Eleazer Bushnell Nashville, Tennessee 1945 Bushnell Genealogy 1 The sudden and untimely death of the family historian, George Eleazer Bushnell, of Nashville, Tennessee, who devoted so many years to the completion of this work, necessitated a complete change in its publication plans and we were required to start anew without familiarity with his painstaking work and vast acquaintance amongst the members of the family. His manuscript, while well arranged, was not yet ready for printing. It has therefore been copied, recopied and edited, However, despite every effort, prepublication funds have not been secured to produce the kind of a book we desire and which Mr. Bushnell's painstaking work deserves. His material is too valuable to be lost in some library's manuscript collection. It is a faithful record of the Bushnell family, more complete than anyone could have anticipated. Time is running out and we have reluctantly decided to make the best use of available funds by producing the "book" by a process of photographic reproduction of the typewritten pages of the revised and edited manuscript. The only deviation from the original consists in slight rearrangement, minor corrections, additional indexing and numbering. We are proud to thus assist in the compiler's labor of love. We are most grateful to those prepublication subscribers listed below, whose faith and patience helped make George Eleazer Bushnell's book thus available to the Bushnell Family.

  • Internal Conflict in Key States in the Democratic Convention of 1880
    INTERNAL CONFLICT IN KEY STATES IN THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION OF 1880 By ALBERT V. HOuSE* {RNE of the more significant of recent monographs dealing with 0 the period of the Civil War, and especially with the accom- plishments of Abraham Lincoln, stresses the fact that the defeat of the Confederacy deprived the concept of "states rights" of plausibility, not only in the South but in the North as well.1 Yet for decades after the war the Democratic party resisted the fact of national supremacy and operated as though the states were still the dominant units in American society. They refused to face the implications of the transformation of the federal union of quasi- autonomous states into the new nation with its national economy, national culture, and national problems. This ostrich-type "head- in-the-sand" attitude was never better illustrated than in the na- tional conventions of the party from 1864 to 1884. These conclaves were almost totally devoid of national vision and courageous statesmanship. They were, rather, mere arenas for a host of suicidal personal, regional, and economic class conflicts. The delegates to these quadriennial assemblies persisted in acting as though the political climate were the same as in the days of Jackson and Van Buren. One college text of a quarter-century ago provides a superb thumbnail summary of this earlier period with the observation that: The Whig and Democratic parties and their successors were a bundle of local, sectional, and class interests, whose cross-sections . were a jig saw puzzle of radicalism and conservatism, national and state rights, personal loyalties and local issues.

NEW YORK CHICAGO Sullivan - History of New York State 1523-1927 "History of New York State 1523-1927" CHAPTER XII. THE BENCH AND BAR. Dutch Period, 1609-1664. Hudson discovered the river known by his name in 1609. During the next ten years many Dutch ships were in New York waters, and Manhattan Island had a small settlement of traders. Magisterial authority, if there was any in this little trading community, probably followed the rules of the sea, with sea captains as arbiters, and with the certainty that capital offenses would be referred to the home government. In 1621 the Dutch West India Company was chartered, with wide powers and charged with the keeping of "good order, police, and justice." The charter contained many guarantees of freedom in social, political and religious life, but reserved final judicial authority for the States General. Next in magisterial authority were the directors of the company, who exercised supervision of, and accepted responsibility for, the judicial acts of their provincial officials, the superintendents of the trading posts and the ship captains.

    270 HISTORY OF CENTRAL NEW YORK the lake about 1886. Much rivalry arose between the competing lines. For years thousands of passengers were carried each sum mer. Rates were cut until one could travel the round trip, a distance of forty miles, at a fare of ten cents on the Genundawah and twenty cents on the Onnalinda. Finally the Genundawah was taken over by George Miller, proprietor of a big vineyard and wine cellar at Miller's Point, south of Seneca Point. One night, as the boat was tied up at Woodville, at the south end of the lake, she caught fire and was destroyed, December 8, 1894. To the west of Canandaigua Lake the hills rise to an alti tude of 2,300 feet, highest in the region. The remarkable purity of the air in the district is indicated by the fact that the Dela ware grape, grown successfully in only a few localities, has here reached its greatest perfection. Vine Valley, directly opposite Seneca Point, sends its favorite Delawares to eastern markets earlier than does any other region north of Fayetteville, North Carolina, and its products have shown the highest saccharometer test ever shown by American grapes. Canandaigua Lake is one of two along the Finger Lakes hav ing a sizable island. Squaw Island, at the northern end of the lake and containing about a half acre of land, is said to have been the sanctuary for the Indian women of the Seneca village of Kanadaragua, a mile to the northeast, when Sullivan's soldiers destroyed the place in 1779.
