BULLOCH PRESIDENT OF THE NATIONAL GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY CHANCELLOR AND HISTORIAN OF ORDER OF WASHINGTON EX-CHANCELLOR OF ARYAN ORDER CHIEF REGENT OF IMPERIAL ORuER 01' YELLOW ROSE MEMBER OF SONS OF REVOLUTION OF GEORGIA EX-PRESIDENT OF SONS OF REVOLUTION OF FLORIDA .Author of The Bulloch Family and Copncctions; The Family of Bellinger and Deveaux and other Southern Families; The Stewart, Elliott and Dunwody Families; Baillie of Dunain; The Habersham and other Southern Families; Biographical .Sketch of Hon. Archibald Bulloch and other Articles; f.lf vcral Stories and M cdical and Sanitary A rticlcs. PREFACE. The study of genealogy and the compilation of articles on family history can be made very interesting if the genealogist looks upon himself not only as such but as an historian and scientist, for I maintain that the study of genealogy is not the mere tabulating of a lot of names, but embraces the study of history, eugenics-eugenics which of course takes into consideration not only heredity, peculiarities, and disease in­ cident thereto, but also enables one to compile a true history of events. Therefore the college and university should have a chair devoted to this study. We all know that one who merely takes a birdseye view of a battle can only see the general trend of the conflict, but that he who visits all parts of the field can study the salient features of the conflict and the parts taken by the individual and can deduce therefrom the reason why the enemy has been successful or has met defeat.

  • United States V. Klintock: Reconsideration of United States V. Palmer As to General Piracy As Defined
    FOREWORD Title United States v. Klintock: Reconsideration of United States v. Palmer as to General Piracy as Defined by the Law of Nations through the Applicable Standards of Political Action of Acknowledgement and Recognition and the Status of Statelessness. Author Justin L. Sieffert Document Type Article Publication Date December 2016 Keywords 1820, Piracy, General Piracy, “Law of Nations,” Privateer, Pardon. Abstract During the February 1820 Term, the Supreme Court of the United States decided four significant piracy cases, beginning with United States v. Klintock. Political, economic, and social pressures enhanced the problem of piracy affecting the interests of the United States. Responding to the criticism of his decision in United States v. Palmer and the passage of the Act of 1819 state Congressional intent for defining piracy by the “law of nations,” Marshall authored the decision in Klintock distinguishing Palmer and, upon reconsideration, interpreting the Act of 1790 to include general piracy as defined by the “law of nations.” With a broader interpretation, federal courts had the jurisdiction to consider cases of general piracy regardless of the character of the vessel or nationality of the offender if the vessel operated under the flag of an unacknowledged foreign entity and if an American interest was at issue. While serving as the foundation for the final three piracy cases to endure broad enforcement authority over piracy, the story of Klintock did not end with the decision. An internal controversy over missing evidence in the case due to an alleged conspiracy implicated other parties in the piracy and demonstrated the internal policies and political considerations Monroe administration in the aftermath of the piracy cases.

CLAES lvIARTENSZEN VAN ROSENVELrf arrived in New Netherland, now New York, in one of the most memorable years in the history of his time, for it was about 1649, when the Dutch government was seriously embarrassed. A contest had been waged between the people and the Sovereign of England, as it had long be£ ore been carried on in the Netherlands. Oppo­ sition had been succeeded by revolt and civil war. Charles the First was beheaded in front of his own banqueting hall, an<l England declared a republic. The shock which troubled Europe was felt in America. In that year Winthrop died. The Dutch and other traders were forbidden to trade with the New England savages. Arms were brought to New Amsterdam from Holland, the people fearing that war would break out with the savages. Public opinion was running strong against Stuyvesant. Food was scarce. The winter was so cold that "ink froze in the pen.'' About this time a Burgher government was demanded, and dele­ gates were sent to Holland. Katskill and CI31-verack were settled. Stuyvesant opposed the reformers. Fort Nassau was demolished. Esopus (N. Y.) and Newtown (L. I.) were settled. The Burgher government was conceded to Manhattan. War was declared be­ tween the English and the Dutch nations.
