CHAPTER XIII GENEALOGICAL TABLES EXPLANATION the Progenitors of the Baltic Family in America, So Far As Is Known, Were John Batt CHAPTER XIII GENEALOGICAL TABLES EXPLANATION The progenitors of the BaltIc family in America, so far as is known, were John Battle and Mathew Battle (probably John's brother). In the following Tables are gil'en, as far as they could be procured, the names of all their descend­ ants, with such facts about each as seemed most worth selling down. Tables 1-78 give the descendants of John, Tables 7'1--87 those of Mathew. The inset key shows the relation of the Tables. The reference under the names hending a Table shows the previous Table in which the descent of the first name may be traced. For example, in Table 10 under the heading Henr!l Laure1ls Battle etc. the reference, See Table 9, means that Henry Laurens Battle's dcscent may bt' traced in Table 9. The letter and numbers before the first name of a Table sl;ow the manner of descent from John or Mathew Battle. For example, in Table 10, J. 1. 2. 6. S. S. 7. Henr!l Laurens Battle means that Henry Laurens Battle was the seventh child of the third child of the third child of the sixth child of the second child of the first child of John Battle. Similarly in Table 79, M. 1. 1. 1. 1. 1. 5. Nicholas JVilliam Bat­ tle means that Nicholas William Battle was the fifth child of the first child of the first child of the first child of the first child of the first child of Mathew Battle. After the first name of each Table are given, where pOSSible, present or last place of residence, occupation, placc and date of birth, place and date of death, manner of education, items of special interest, religious affiliation, place and date of marriage, name of husband or wife with, in parenthesis, the place and date of birth an~ death of that husband or wife and the names of the parents. In the next line are given in like manner name and facts for the first child. Thc number 1 is prefixed in even line with the left margin of the page; the name and facts are set two ems to the right of the number. In the next line come number 1, name, and facts for the first child of the first child of thc head name, the number 1 being set not in even line with the left mar­ gin of the page but two ems to the right of the left line of the paragraph devoted to the first c1lild, the name and facts two ems to the right of the number. And so on. For e\'ery name all descendants are given as far as the Table wiJI allow before the next brother or sister is taken up. The ordcr of children is indicated by continuous numbering without regard to different marriages. The ~- succession of generations is shown in the printing by offsets to the right. A son bearing the same name as his father is distinguished by II (not Jr.); the same name as bis fallier and graudfatllcr by III; and so on. The abbrel'iations employed ure mostly in common use and require no ex­ planation. The following may be noted: b., born; d., died; ed., educated; m., mar­ ried; s. of, son of; d. of, daughter of.

Personal names are given in the form used by the bearer even if this conflicts with common usage today. TABLE 1 DESCENDANTS OF JO.HN AND ELIZABETH BATTLE J.

  • Twisted Trails of the Wold West by Matthew Baugh © 2006
    Twisted Trails of the Wold West By Matthew Baugh © 2006 The Old West was an interesting place, and even more so in the Wold- Newton Universe. Until fairly recently only a few of the heroes and villains who inhabited the early western United States had been confirmed through crossover stories as existing in the WNU. Several comic book miniseries have done a lot to change this, and though there are some problems fitting each into the tapestry of the WNU, it has been worth the effort. Marvel Comics’ miniseries, Rawhide Kid: Slap Leather was a humorous storyline, parodying the Kid’s established image and lampooning westerns in general. It is best known for ‘outing’ the Kid as a homosexual. While that assertion remains an open issue with fans, it isn’t what causes the problems with incorporating the story into the WNU. What is of more concern are the blatant anachronisms and impossibilities the story offers. We can accept it, but only with the caveat that some of the details have been distorted for comic effect. When the Rawhide Kid is established as a character in the Wold-Newton Universe he provides links to a number of other western characters, both from the Marvel Universe and from classic western novels and movies. It draws in the Marvel Comics series’ Blaze of Glory, Apache Skies, and Sunset Riders as wall as DC Comics’ The Kents. As with most Marvel and DC characters there is the problem with bringing in the mammoth superhero continuities of the Marvel and DC universes, though this is not insurmountable.
