A1475 Sappington-Marmaduke Family Papers, 1810-1941 4.0 linear feet Processed by Christopher Gordon, October 2003 REPOSITORY Missouri Historical Society Archives P.O. Box 11940 St. Louis, MO 63112-0040 314-746-4510 [email protected] BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Dr. John Sappington was born May 15, 1776, in Maryland. He was the son of Mark Brown Sappington and Rebecca Boyle Sappington. John studied medicine under his father until 1800 when he moved to Franklin, Tennessee, to begin his own practice. In 1814-1815, he studied medicine at the University of Pennsylvania in Philadelphia and received his M.D. He returned to Franklin but later moved to Missouri in 1817. Sappington settled first in Howard County before making his permanent home in Arrow Rock, Saline County, in 1819. Dr. Sappington is regarded as the first doctor to effectively use quinine for the treatment of malaria and fevers. He rejected the common practices of bloodletting and purges in favor of modern medical practices. In 1832, Sappington began to produce a malaria remedy named “Sappington’s fever pills.” He employed agents across the Midwest and South to sell the pills. By patenting his medicine and acting as manufacturer and wholesaler, Sappington alienated himself from many physicians of the period who looked upon his actions as unprofessional. The pills were extremely successful and sold by the millions. In 1844, Sappington wrote The Theory and Treatment of Fevers, a book written as a treatment guide for the general public. Dr. Sappington married Jane Breathitt in 1804. They had nine children. He died September 7, 1856, at his home, “Fox Castle,” in Arrow Rock. -

Allen ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the role of American historical societies in collecting and preserving history during the nineteenth century. By looking at what these organizations accrued and how they presented their collections, we can better understand how people in the nineteenth century viewed their past. This dissertation, however, argues that historical societies did more than compile and conserve the past. It contends that these historical agencies, through various methods, influenced the way the public perceived and, consequently, believed to be true about their history. -

Leadership in Nashville
LEADERSHIP IN NASHVILLE 1964 Collection Number: MSS 585 Size: 1 Manuscript Special Collections and University Archives Jean and Alexander Heard Library Vanderbilt University Nashville, Tennessee LEADERSHIP IN NASHVILLE 1964 Biography/History This was a special project chosen by a History of Nashville Class of Senior Citizens and the results of their topic on Nashville’s Hundred Greatest Citizens. These people were selected on the basis of their contributions to city, state, or nation. By agreement, no one was included whose death occurred less than twenty years before the class. The list is the product of the combined judgment of the class. The teacher, Alfred Leland Crabb, reserved the right of veto. In all, 154 men and women were nominated. The list was gradually reduced to a minimum of 116. Prolonged effort was made to lower the number to the 100 originally agreed upon, but it was futile. In 1984, the class project was transferred from the Peabody Library to Special Collections. Scope and Contents This collection contains one manuscript item with 41 pages, titled Leadership in Nashville. It contains a listing of 116 of the most prominent citizens in Nashville leadership, with brief accompanying biographical sketches. The following people are listed: Adelicia Hayes Acklen, 1817-1889 Social leader, gracious hostess Adam Gillespie Adams, 1829-1895 Merchant and banker Edward Emerson Barnard, 1857-1923 Astronomy Washington Barrow, 1807-1866 Editor and Congressman John Meredith Bass, 1804-1878 Lawyer, banker, planter, twice mayor Jere Baxter, 1852-1904 Builder, Tennessee Central Railroads John Bell, 1797-1869 Lawyer, statesman, orator, political leader William T. -
JAMES Mcgavook
THE McGAVOCK FAMILY. A GENEALOGICAL HISTORY OF JAMES McGAVOOK AND HIS DESCENDANTS FROM 17 60 TO 1903, BY 0 REV. ROBERT GRAY. "This shall be written for the generations to come. "-Pslm. cii, I8. RICHMOND: WM. ELLIS JONES, BOOK AND JOB PRINTER. PREFACE. '' There is a deep significance and a profound philosophy in that Divine economy enjoined upon the ancient Israelites to pre serve their ancient pedigrees, and to hold in sacred veneration the memory of their forefathers; and so it was that when the CHILD JESUS was born of this race, though of humble and ob scure family, Matthew was able to give his paternal pedigree, as the son of Joseph, back through forty-two generations to Abra ham, and Luke, his maternal pedigree, as the son o.f Mary, through seventy-six generations to Adam. "Nothing, at first sight, seems less interesting or less instruc tive than a genealogical table-a mere register of names and dates. But, each of these names is the memorial of a human heart that once lived and died-a heart that kept its steady pul sations through some certain period of time, and then ceased to beat, and mouldered into dust. Each of these names is a me morial of an individual human life that had its joys and sorrows; its cares and burdens; its affections and hopes; its conflicts and achievements; its opportunities wasted or improved, and its hour of death. Each of these dates of birth, marriage and death! Oh! how significant! What a day was each of these to some human family, or to some circle of loving human hearts." Daniel Webster once said: "The man who feels no sentiment of veneration for the memory of his forefathers; who has no natural regard for his ancestors or his kindred, is himself un worthy of kindred, regard or remembrance." The name McGavock is Scotch or Scotch-Irish, and if there is any family of the same name in the United States, other than the one of whom this work treats, after long and careful search, I have failed_ to learn of it. -
