  • Launceston-And-Districts-Fallen-From-Both-World-Wars..Pdf
    This is not a complete record of all those that fell during the two wars, with some of the fallen having no information available whatsoever. However there are 222 names from within the district that I have been able to provide a narrative for and this booklet hopefully will provide a lasting memory for future generations to view and understand the lives behind the names on the various memorials around Launceston. It has not been easy piecing together the fragments of information particularly from the first world war where many records were destroyed in the blitz of the second world war, but there are many resources now available that do make the research a little easier. Hopefully over time the information that is lack- ing in making this a complete story will be discovered and I can bring all the re- cords up to date. Of course there have been many people that have helped and I would like to thank Peter Bailey, Claudine Malaquin, Dennis Middleton, Jim Edwards, Martin Kel- land, Grant Lethbridge Morris and Michael Willis for their invaluable help in compiling this homage plus the resources that are freely available at Launceston Library. My hope is that the people will find this a fascinating story to all these souls that bravely gave their lives in the service of their country and that when we come to remember them at the various remembrance services, we will actually know who they were. Roger Pyke 28th of October 2014. Launceston’s Fallen from World War One William Henry ADAMS William was born in 1886 at 14 Hillpark Cottages, Launceston to Richard and Jane Adams.

NATIONALIZING THE DEAD: THE CONTESTED MAKING OF AN AMERICAN COMMEMORATIVE TRADITION FROM THE CIVIL WAR TO THE TO THE GREAT WAR by SHANNON T. BONTRAGER Under the Direction of Dr. Ian Christopher Fletcher ABSTRACT In recent years, scholars have emphasized the importance of collective memory in the making of national identity. Where does death fit into the collective memory of American identity, particularly in the economic and social chaos of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries? How did death shape the collective memory of American national identity in the midst of a pluralism brought on by immigration, civil and labor rights, and a transforming culture? On the one hand, the commemorations of public figures such as Ulysses S. Grant, William McKinley, and Theodore Roosevelt constructed an identity based on Anglo-Saxonism, American imperialism, and the ―Strenuous Life.‖ This was reflected in the burial of American soldiers of the Spanish American and Philippine American wars and the First World War.

  • THE GOVERNORS of ISABELA Republic of the Philippines
    Republic of the Philippines Province of Isabela ISABELA TOURISM OFFICE THE GOVERNORS OF ISABELA Philippine Copyright © 01 May 2017 In order to facilitate the work of the missionaries in the evangelization of the Cagayan Valley and upon the recommendation of Governor-General (1850-1853) Antonio de Urbiztondo y Eguía, a royal decree was issued by Queen Isabella II of Spain on May 1, 1856 during the administration of Governor-General (1854-1856) Manuel Crespo y Cebrián which created the province of Isabela. The new alcaldia consisted of the towns of Cabagan, Tumauini, Ilagan, Gamu, Calanusian, Cauayan, Angadanan, Camarag, Carig including Catalangan and Palanan. The new province was named Isabela de Luzon in honor of Her Royal Highness Queen Isabella II of Spain. “De Luzon” was added to distinguish the new province from the other Isabela localities in Spanish East Indies. The old pueblo of Ilagan became the capital of the new province. Primary sources, particularly Dominican archives, lack detailed names of alcaldia mayores serving the new province. The military campaign of February 1868, however, mentioned Don Gonzales Montero as the Spanish Isabela governor joining Bontoc and Lepanto Commandants in a huge military expedition spending 40 days subjugating settlements in the highlands of the Cordilleras which is now part of Ifugao province. On August 25, 1898, during the Philippine Revolution, General Daniel Mata Tria Tirona (1864-1939) was assigned by President Emilio Aguinaldo y Famy, in Cagayan and Isabela and was subsequently appointed as military governor of the two provinces. On September 1, 1898, Isabela last Spanish Governor, Don Jose Perez, left Ilagan at five o’clock in the morning with 11,368.58 pesos and retired his 35 guardia civils to Bayombong, Nueva Vizcaya upon learning that Tuguegarao in Cagayan was captured by the revolutionary forces led by General Tirona on August 31.
