A debt of gratitude is due the author of th.is volume !or making accessible to members and friends of the Gregg family something of the origin, history, ai;tivt­ ties, and personalities of this numerous and widely distributed kinship. The work. is the result of years of patient, persistent effort entailing a vast amount o:f re­ search, correspondence, travel, and expense, which have been expended with enthusiasm and determination. The record should appeal to all who have an interest in i1onorable ancestry, family tradition, and worthy acbieve!ltent, · If should be an inspiration to noble e!:fort and high aspiration. , · In the collection of rdiable data concerning events of the distant past, the law of diminishing returns appears to operate. The ·further we are removed in time from the events to be recorded. the difficulties increase, like gravity, as the square of the distance from the source. Such being the case, it is surprising how much of the history of the Gregg family in America has been brought to light and recorded by those L>1terested enough to delve into the available sources and spend the time and energy necessary for the examination of public records and documents. No other eJCperi~nce tend3 so much to create enthusiasm for, and make real t.he. records, traditions, and.imaginations o:f the past as visiting the scenes of the events described ·1:,y the historian. To visit the homes of distinguished persons of pa.st. generations, to look upon the scenes they once beheld,. to walk where they walked and wrought, to sit where they sat, and to see where their mortal remains forever lie, a!fc_>rd an experience that is truly inspiring. ;;., .. · In the summer o:f 1936, it was the writer's privilege, in company with soJlle relatives, to attend the celebration of the two-hundredth anniversary of the er~'; ion of tl.e Hopewell Meeting, House of the Society of Friends, about four mt!~ north or Winchester, Va. It was 1n this antiquated edifice that his great-grand parents, Thomas Gregg and Sarah Coulson, exchanged their marriage vows and became husband and wife according to Quaker custom and usage, It was a thrill­ ing experience to witness the dignified and impressive ceremonies of the celebra-­ tion. A large concourse of, people froIX1. widely scattered areas assembled to do honor to the memory of those who in pioneer days sought the guidance of the Inner Light and found spiritual consolation 1."1 pure and holy worship within those sacred wall.3. Man~ of those present were descendants of the founders of this Meeting and had come long distances to participate in the eelebratlon. · This was followed by a visit to places of historic and family interest in around Loudoun County, Va. Our party w·as entertained for several days home of the late John W.

  • Sir Bobby Charlton
    EDUCATION PACK 2019 Activity 1 Matchbox Memories Activity 2 A Living For Northumberland Day 2019, we are running Northumbrian Legend ‘Matchbox Memories’ - an initiative with which we would like to get schools involved. – Sir Bobby Charlton We are inviting schoolchildren to write their favourite memory of Northumberland, so far in their lives, on a plain white matchbox. Alternatively, they could write it on a piece of paper and a teacher could then write on the boxes, as these are quite small. Another option is for children to take a matchbox home and collect a matchbox memory from a parent, or elderly family member. In this way, they can take part in an oral history exercise. We then wish to collect the memory boxes and put as many as possible on display. The children can add their name, or the name of the person who has given them their special memory, if they wish. We have a limited number of matchbox memory boxes available, but they can be bought at Amazon, if needs be. We could also possibly partner a school with a local sponsor, if we can find one for you. We’d love to have pictures of children working on their matchbox memories, or all holding one aloft for a photo. We will try to arrange for certain collection points, if you take part. This is a very special way to being generations together and find out what people have found special about Northumberland, past and present. We hope you have fun with it. One of the most famous Northumbrians alive today is a footballing legend and one of the few Englishmen to have won the World Cup football trophy.

  • The Commemorative Activity at The
    The Commemorative Activity at the Grave of Munich Air Disaster Victim, Duncan Edwards: A Social and Cultural Analysis of the Commemorative Networks of a Local Sporting Hero by Gayle Rogers A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment for the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Central Lancashire July 2017 ABSTRACT The Commemorative Activity at the Grave of Munich Air Disaster Victim, Duncan Edwards: A Social and Cultural Analysis of the Commemorative Networks of a Local Sporting Hero The Munich Air Disaster claimed the lives of 23 people in a plane crash in Munich in 1958. It is a significant event within modern England’s cultural history as a number of Manchester United footballers, known as the Busby Babes were amongst the dead. The players who died have continued to be extensively commemorated, especially Duncan Edwards. This research considers the commemorative activity associated with Edwards since his death and was initiated when the researcher pondered the extensive commemorative activity by strangers that she encountered at the family grave of her cousin Edwards. The commemoration of the Disaster and of Edwards has been persistent and various with new acts of commemoration continuing conspicuously even after fifty years since the event. Such unique activity particularly demonstrated at Edwards’ grave was considered worthy of further investigation to ascertain why such activity was occurring at such a volume. Although general historical and biographical accounts of the Disaster and Edwards are apparent, specific research concerning the commemoration of the event was not evident. The researcher set out to identify who the commemorators were, why they were undertaking dedicatory acts and what those acts manifest as.
