Serh LOW and MARY PORTER LOW GENEALOGY _....,.. ________ ....,.. .......... The DESCENDANTS of SErH LOW and MARY PORTER ------------ April 1., 1932 1 -THREE REQUESTS- A few yeRrs ago I Rttempted to lea.rn what I could about hereditA.ry chRracteristics in the Low f•amily and discovered th~.t there was no modern record as to those constituting the Low family. I have therefore compiled this record of the descendants of Seth Low and Mary Porter. Its value obviously lies in its completeness and accuracy, and I would appreciate it greatly if I may be notified of any errors or omissions, and I earnestly request that as further changes take place the information be sent to me (giving alwAys full names, Elages and dates. of births, deaths and marriages, and the full names of 11 in-lawstt). From time to time I will endeavor to distribute supplementary sheets which can be inserted in the book so that it can be kept up to dA.te. This is merely a bAre geneRlogical reference work. It could be mRde., however, R matter of very deep interest if the names were transl~ted into living characters. At some future time I should like to be able to publish brief pen pictures Rbout the persons herein recorded Rnd I would be exceedingly grateful if members of the family would be willing to prepRre such sketches sending fl copy to me. They should concern the living as well Rs those who hRve died. In this connection it would be of interest to "locate" the portraits, miniatures, daguerreotypes, etc. of members of the family, and I would like to suggest thRt information be sent to me stating the name of the owner and the location of pictures of members of the family (or their husbands or wives) and, if possible, the artists' names. 2 The numbering system used in this record lends itself re~.dily to the insertion of a.ddi tional data. a.nd also permits relationships to be seen at a glance. For example: 332 is the second child of the third child of the third child of Seth Low. 331 is the eldest sister of 332. 325, for instance, is ~- first cousin. 32 is an uncle Fl.nd an elder brother of 33, p~.rent of 332. 3, of course is the gr~.nd- p~.rent of 332 and is the third child of Seth Low.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the orignal document. 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 original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns 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 thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You will find a good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material. It is customary to begin photoing at the upper left handcomer of a large sheet and to continue photoing from left to right in equal sections with a small overlap. If necessary, sectioning is continued again — beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete. 4. The majority of users indicate that the textual content is of greatest value, however, a somewhat higher quality reproduction could be made from "photographs" if essential to the understanding of the dissertation.

  • Final Thesis
    Monstrous predatory vampires and beneficent fairy-godmothers: British post-war colonial development in Africa Charlotte Lydia Riley UCL This thesis is submitted for the degree of PhD. 1 I, Charlotte Lydia Riley, confirm that the work presented in this thesis is my own. Where information has been derived from other sources, I confirm that this has been indicated in the thesis. 2 Abstract This thesis explores the concept of colonial development, as enacted by the Attlee government during the immediate post-war period. It focuses on Africa, reflecting the ‘second colonial occupation’ of the continent during this period, and examines both economic and social welfare development initiatives. Post-war colonial development in the British African territories had two main aims: firstly, to increase the production of raw materials, to aid the reconstruction of the metropole and earn dollars on the international markets; and secondly, to improve the standard of living among colonial populations. This thesis explores the contradictions inherent in these two types of development. It can be seen that, although Britain was largely unsuccessful in this period with economic development programmes in Africa, it had some modest success with colonial social-welfare initiatives. The thesis also examines the extent to which Arthur Creech Jones, Colonial Secretary 1946-1950, shaped colonial policy in Africa based on his Fabian beliefs. It examines how far British colonial policy in this period can be characterised as ‘socialist’, and how far metropolitan and colonial populations were separated by narratives of progress and development in this period. This thesis also argues that colonial development in Africa in this period was shaped, rhetorically, ideologically and pragmatically, by the context of British reconstruction under the Marshall Plan.

  • Southeast Asia
    SOUTHEAST ASIA Southeast Asia is defined here to include Burma, Thailand, Cambodia, Laos, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, Singapore, Papua New Guinea, the Philippines, and the Solomon Islands. References to other nations such as Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Japan, Korea, Micronesia, and New Zealand are included normally only as they relate to the specified Southeast Asian region. More comprehensive coverage of these areas may be included in future guides to the Library’s holdings on East Asia and South Asia. A guide to holdings relating to Korea is available upon request. This guide is intended to facilitate research in the Eisenhower Library’s holdings on topics relating to Southeast Asia and the United States’ involvement with that area. The Library’s Southeast Asia related holdings are diverse with information found in certain U.S. Army unit records pertaining to the Philippine Insurrection in 1901-1902 with other material created as recently as the mid 1970s. While, as expected, the greatest bulk of documentation falls into the period of Dwight D. Eisenhower’s Presidency, 1953-1961, much can be found here relating to Southeast Asia during World War II and during the 1960s and early 1970s. General Eisenhower’s Pre-Presidential Papers and papers of certain of his military associates’ document his service in the Philippines from 1935-1939. Information on the conduct of World War II operations in the Southwest Theater including the Philippines and the New Guinea area can be found in the records of United States Army units such as the First Cavalry Division and many others. Considerable detailed documentation can be found here pertaining to J.

    ABSTRACT KOREAN WAR AND VIETNAM WAR STRATEGIES: A COMPARISON by Richard Thomas McCandless This paper argues that had the United States military with the backing of the United Nations invaded North Vietnam without driving too close to China’s border with Vietnam, its chances of winning the Vietnam War may have been dramatically improved. The study focuses on lessons that United States military should have learned from the Korean War and examines whether or not those applicable lessons were applied in the Vietnam War. The study focuses on the United States military’s proximity to the Chinese border in both conflicts and the strategic effect of having the United Nations’ support in both conflicts.
