Unfortunately, for most, they and/or their activities were lost in the antiquity of time. That is not the case with Henry Theodore Titus. Despite the elapsed time of over 100 years since his death, he is still a subject of much discussion. However, much of what is being or has been written about him is merely a rehash of what someone else had already rehashed. Henry Theodore Titus comes from a long line ot movers and shakers, dating back several generations prior to the first known Titus to America.

  • Charlton Heritage by Frank Lafferthun
    Charlton Heritage Saratoga County, New York Frank J. Lafforthun, Historian Foreword: For the past 200 years there has been only three short histories written about the heritage of the town of Charlton. The first such known history was written by Prof. Levi Packard, principal of the Charlton Academy, in 1869. From this brief history, of noteworthy interest, became the basis for the history of Charlton included in the "History of Saratoga County" by N. Sylvester. The greater share of information in "Stories & Pictures of Charlton" by W. Bronson Taylor, published in 1959, also conformed to Packard's history. This book "Charlton Heritage” also depends on Prof. Packard, for facts on the early history of Charlton, but goes one step before, and one step beyond that period thus making up a comprehensive collation of facts from 1774 to 1974. Fictional books continue to be written through the imaginations of authors, and bear no facts, but a history recording is acquired by vigilant search of the town records, and from these records this writer has tried to record here information about the town of Charlton, that could be lost forever if the town records were destroyed by fire. Frank J. Lafforthun, Historian Main Street, Charlton October 1, 1978 Cynthia J. Lafforthun, Typist Mechanic Street, Galway Vol. I - Part I An Offspring of Albany County: On the 17th of October, 1683, the first "General Assembly" of the "Colony of New York" chosen by the planters or inhabitants of every part of the government, met at Fort James, in the city of New York, with "free liberty to consult and debate among themselves all matters as shall be apprehended proper to be established for laws for the good government of the said Colony of New York and its dependencies.

It remains the deadliest war in American history, resulting in the deaths of 620,000 soldiers and an undetermined number of civilian casualties. According to John Huddleston, "Ten percent of all Northern males 20–45 years of age died, as did 30 percent of all Southern white males aged 18–40."4 Victory for the North meant the end of the Confederacy and of slavery in the United States, and strengthened the role of the federal government. The social, political, economic and racial issues of the war decisively shaped the reconstruction era that lasted to 1877. Sourc: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Civil_War EASTERN THEATER The American Civil War (1861–1865) was a civil war in the United States of America. Eleven Southern slave states declared their secession from the United States and formed the Confederate States of America, also known as "the Confederacy".
