Its diss,ppointments and perplexing embarrassments are only surmounted by the feeling of pleasure in the work. The obscurity of dates, the destruction of entire community records by the elements, the unreliability of tradition, and family obscurity itself, only add to the puzzling situations. The loss of cemetery records is the most pitiable of all and this work is an appeal to all who are interested in the preservation of records to take the. precaution now to preserve those gravestones which still remain. This work has been difficult for lack of funds and the compiler is grateful to the following persons for their various contributions to the accomplishment of this record. To SAl\fUEL A. GRISWOLD, REV. HERVEY D. GRISWOLD, DAVID M. GRISWOLD, JARED B. STANDISH, MRS. ADELINE CROUSE, EUGENE E. CRAW, for their valuable contributions to the records. To MRs. SAMUEL A. GRISWOLD, for her untiring devotion to the raising of funds and to the final preparation of this work. To the Executive Committee of the Griswold Family Asso­ ciation of America for their co-operation and to all members of the Association, who by their support, and by their interest have made this publication possible. May all the above-n1entioned stand by till the work is com­ pleted and may many more join these ranks to make possible a genealogy that is outstanding among genealogies of a family that has been and still is outstanding through ten generations.

EDWARD GRISWOLD EDWARD. Born in England, 1607; m. there about 1630, MARGARET, whose family name and parentage have not been disclosed;. neither have we actual records of his birth and mar- nage. About Aug. 17, 1639, Rev. Ephriam Huit arrived in Windsor, Connecticut with his company and immediately entered upon his labors assisting Rev. John Warham. Rev. Huit had been pastor at Knowle and Wroxall, Warwick­ shire, England, Wroxall being a part of Kenilworth Parish. He was a writer of note upon religious subjects and a powerful preacher of the Puritan faith; he was censured for his non­ conformity and silenced by the Bishop of Worcester, which, no doubt, was the moving cause of his organizing his company and for his removal to New England. Edwar~ and Matthew Gris­ wold were members of this company, and for this reason it had been thought that the records of Knowle and -W:roxall would disclose some clue to the parentage of our ancestors, but thus far they are silent. Edward was of the sturdy intellectual type and speedily became prominent in the affairs of the new community, exceedingly active, and was frequently mentioned in colonial records. Served as deputy to the General Court Aug. 18, 1658-Mar. 14, 1660, and May 15, 1662-Mar. 11, 1663. In 1659 he built the Old Fort at Springfield for Mr. Pynchon. Also served as J.P. He was granted land at Poquonoc but he did not remove there until after the title of the Indians had been fully extinguished, 1642. But he was resi­ dent there with two other families, John Bartlett and Thomas Holcomb, in 1649. His home stood near the highway at the top of the hill; had 29 1/2 acres bounded mostly south and west by Stony Brook; east by the river.

  • Music and the American Civil War
    “LIBERTY’S GREAT AUXILIARY”: MUSIC AND THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR by CHRISTIAN MCWHIRTER A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Christian McWhirter 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT Music was almost omnipresent during the American Civil War. Soldiers, civilians, and slaves listened to and performed popular songs almost constantly. The heightened political and emotional climate of the war created a need for Americans to express themselves in a variety of ways, and music was one of the best. It did not require a high level of literacy and it could be performed in groups to ensure that the ideas embedded in each song immediately reached a large audience. Previous studies of Civil War music have focused on the music itself. Historians and musicologists have examined the types of songs published during the war and considered how they reflected the popular mood of northerners and southerners. This study utilizes the letters, diaries, memoirs, and newspapers of the 1860s to delve deeper and determine what roles music played in Civil War America. This study begins by examining the explosion of professional and amateur music that accompanied the onset of the Civil War. Of the songs produced by this explosion, the most popular and resonant were those that addressed the political causes of the war and were adopted as the rallying cries of northerners and southerners. All classes of Americans used songs in a variety of ways, and this study specifically examines the role of music on the home-front, in the armies, and among African Americans.

  • Griswold Family
    1 A Short Introduction to the Griswold Family The Griswold family first appears in Warwickshire, England in the 13th century. The name was spelled various ways. Most early Griswolds spelled their name Greswolde. Since spelling was casual at that time, some forms ran rather far afield, most notably Grissel. So common is this one that when I come across it doing genealogical work, I automatically click in on a Griswold and search farther. So far it’s paid off 100% of the time. How could you get such aberrant spellings? My hunch is that we pronounce all the letters clearly, but that the English did not. English history is full of surnames pronounced totally differently from the way they look. I’ve often wondered if these mangled pronunciations were some sort of secret password that let those around you know that you were a bona fide member of the appropriate social group, much as today people name drop by only using first names and expect you to know exactly whom they are talking about. Thus we have names like Chalmondeley pronounced “Chumley”, Beauchamp pronounced “Beecham”, and Bohun pronounced “Boone”. Why not, then might the original pronunciation of Greswolde been “Gresold” or “Grissel”? The origin of the Griswold or Greswolde name is given in several ways. The family name appeared at a time when Norman French and English were commonly intermixed. “Grès” is “sandstone” in French. “Gris” is grey; griser is to give a grey tint to. “Wold”, however is clearly English, most likely from a Saxon form and is understood to mean “wood” or “forest”.

However in the years following quite a number of Saybrook settlers acquired land and established homes east of the Connecticut River; amongst them were the Lay, Noyes, Champion, Griswold, Marvin, DeWolf, Lord and Ely families. On February 13, 1665, at a ceremony known as "The Loving Parting," the friendly separation of Saybrook and Lyme took place, and Lyme became an independent "plantation"; two years later, on May 9, 1667, a decree of the General Court at Hartford authorized the change of name to that of Lyme. There is a tra­ dition that Lyme was named after Lyme Regis in Dorset, Eng­ land, based on an unconfirmed legend that the Griswolds and/or the Sills came from that town. Others believe that the fact that the Lees of Lyme came from Lyme, Cheshire, England, may have had something to do with this town being so named. Lyme originally comprised an area of 80 square miles. In 1835 the eastern section became an independent town known as East Lyme; and in 1855 the south-west portion withdrew and became legally Old Lyme. In connection with setting the boundaries of Lyme, the story runs that there was much controversy about a strip of land be­ tween Bride Brook and the Niantic Rive*, also claimed by New London.

  • University Microfilms International 300 N
    INFORMATION TO USERS This was produced from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure you of complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark it is an indication that the film inspector noticed either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, or duplicate copy. Unless we meant to delete copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed, you will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photo­ graphed the photographer has followed a definite method in “sectioning” the material. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand corner of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. For any illustrations that cannot be reproduced satisfactorily by xerography, photographic prints can be purchased at additional cost and tipped into your xerographic copy.
