    Jeffrey L. Scheib* ONE of the MOST Important Documents to Survive

    A 1688 Census of Kent County, Delaware Jeffrey L. Scheib* NE OF THE MOST important documents to survive from the Oearly colonial history of the state of Delaware is a partial census of Kent County taken late in the spring or sometime in the summer of 1688. The 1688 enumeration was not the earliest census of the Kent County population.' Nevertheless, it was the first census of the region to provide detailed information on the members of each household, listing not only the name of each freeholder in the county but also the names and ages of everyone dwelling in each household. Of importance both historically and genealogically, the census provides a fascinating glimpse of the population of Kent County at a very early period. Introduction The circumstances surrounding the compilation of the 1688 Kent County census remain a mystery. In December of 1682, shortly after he had assumed jurisdiction over the Three Lower Counties of New Castle, Kent, and Sussex, William Penn' issued an order to the justices of the peace in each of the counties: I do also think Fitt that an Exact Catalogue be returned to Me, of the Names of all the People of your County, Masters, Mistresses, Servants, Parents, Children, allso the number of Acres each Free Holder hash, and *Editor's Note: The author is indebted to Rosalind, . Belle; former assistant editor of the Biographical Dictionary of Early Pennsylvania Ligiclaton project. During the course of her research on several Kent Countians who served as representatives in the Pennsylvania Assembly before the year 1 nv, she discovenxi a partial transcript of the Kent County census in the Matilda Spicer Hari Collection at the Genealogical Society cf Pennsylvania.

  • Nathaniel Morris: Mulatto of Sussex County, Delaware

    Nathaniel Morris: Mulatto of Sussex County, Delaware

    Nathaniel Morris: Mulatto of Sussex County, Delaware By Michele Pierce 7 Aug 2009 Nathaniel Morris, “Mulatto”, was a taxable in the home of James Longo, another mixed blood family, (Heinegg, Paul, Free African Americans of Maryland and Delaware, 233) from Wicomoco Hundred, Somerset County, Maryland, in the years 1737, 1738, 1739 and 1740 (Russo, Elliott J., Tax Lists of Somerset County 1730‐1740, 140; 163; 186; 213). James Longo’s will was probated in Worcester County, Maryland, in September of 1743 (Maryland Calendar of Wills Vol. 8, 235). His will names his wife Hannah and his godson Shederick Chance. Nathaniel Morris was not mentioned. The connection between the Morris and Longo surname is unknown. However, the Longo surname is familar to Sussex County, Delaware. Is this Nathaniel Morris, “Mulatto” of Maryland the same Nathaniel Morris “Mulatto” of Delaware? I think it highly probable. The connection between the Morris family of Wicomoco County, Maryland and the Morris family of Sussex County, Delaware may show the migration patterns of these indigenous people. Nathaniel Morris is first listed in Sussex County, Delaware, when he registered the birth of his son Levi in 1747/48 at St. George’s Church in Indian River Hundred (Wright, F. Edward, Vital Records of Kent and Sussex Counties Delaware 1686‐1800, 93). He was called Nathan’l Morris, “Mulatto”. He is listed on the Broadkill Hundred, Sussex County, Delaware, Tax Assessment List, from 1770 to 1774 (Heinegg, Paul, Free African Americans of Maryland and Delaware, 252). Nathaniel must have been born around 1727 and died shortly after the 1774 tax list.

    The Irish in American Cinema 1910 – 1930: Recurring Narratives and Characters

    The Irish in American Cinema 1910 – 1930: Recurring Narratives and Characters THOMAS JAMES SCOTT, University of Ulster ABSTRACT This paper will consider cinematic depictions of the Irish between 1910 and 1930. American cinema during these years, like those that preceded them, contained a range of stereotypical Irish characters. However, as cinema began to move away from short sketches and produce longer films, more complex plots and refined Irish characters began to appear. The onscreen Irish became vehicles for recurring themes, the majority of which had uplifting narratives. This paper will discuss common character types, such as the Irish cop and domestic servant, and subjects such as the migration narrative, the social reform narrative and the inter-ethnic comedy. It will also briefly consider how Irish depictions in the 1910s and 1920s compared to earlier representations. While the emphasis will be on films viewed at archives, including the University of California, Los Angeles Film and Television Archive, or acquired through private and commercial sellers, the paper will also reflect on some films that are currently considered lost. KEYWORDS Irish, cinema, representation, stereotypes, migrants. Introduction Feature Productions’ early ‘talkie’ Irish Fantasy (Orville O. Dull, 1929) should be considered important for two reasons. One, it is one of the earliest Irish-themed musicals to survive in its entirety. Two, it was produced by William Cameron Menzies, who would go on to win an Academy Award for his production design on MGM’s Gone With the Wind (Victor Fleming, 1939). The film centres on an old Irish man explaining the meaning of the three leaves of the shamrock to his uninformed grandson, who remarks ‘sure they’re only weeds.’ The first leaf signifies what the Irish are, ‘happy-go-lucky with warm blood in our hearts.’ The second symbolises the big hearts of the Irish who were forced to migrate to America.
