T. Martin published a series of articles in The Record, a Greenville newspaper, which he titled PIONEERS. Beginning with this issue of The Heritage, we will reprint those articles, but may not follow the 5-parts exactly, for we will be combining some articles in whole or part, because of space requirements. For the most part Mr. Martin's wording will be followed exactly, but some punctuation, or other minor matters, may be altered. In a few instances questionable items are followed by possible corrections in parentheses. It is believed you will find these articles of interest and perhaps of value to many of our readers.

    VIRGINIA STATE LIBRARY List of the Colonial Soldiers of Virginia Special Report of the Department of Archives and History for 1913 H. J. ECKENRODE, Archivist RICHMOND Davis Bottom, Superintendent of Public Printing 1917 List of the Colonial Soldiers of Virginia Preface. When colonial warfare is mentioned, the mind goes back to the first Eng­ lish planting on American soil, to helmeted and breast-plated soldiers with )likes and muskets. who were the necessary accompaniment of the settler in the wilderness. Virginia was essentially a military colony and remained so !or many years; every man was something of a soldier as well as farmer und jack-of-all-trades. Guns, pistols, and armor were part of the regular house furnishing. Danger was always to be apprehended from the Indians, who, In 1622, after many threalenings, rose against the small, sickly colony and decimated it. This massacre inaugurated a war which lasted for several years, ending in the extermination of many tribes in eastem Virginia. Twenty-two years later, In 1644, the massacre was repeated on a smaller se.alc. followed by inevitable retaliation. J•Jxtcnsion westward, beyond the first limit of settlement, the peninsulas between the James, York, and Rappahannock, brought the colonisls into con­ tact with other tribes, and small forts were erected in various places and garrisoned with rangers, who for a long period guarded this head-of-tide­ water frontier against the savages. Fighting was frequent. The Indian troubles culminated in 1676 with Bacon's Rebellion. Na­ thaniel Bacon raised a force of some hundreds of men to punish the Indians for long-continued depredations, and finally crushed the Indian power east of the Blue Ridge.

  • Slavery in Early Louisville and Jefferson County Kentucky,1780
    SLAVERY IN EARLY LOUISVILLE AND JEFFERSON COUNTY, KENTUCKY, 1780-1812 J. Blaine Hudson frican-Americans entered Kentucky with. ff not before, the liest explorers. When Louisville was founded in 1778. ican-Americans were among its earliest residents and, as the frontier and early settlement periods passed, both slavery and the subordination of free persons of color became institutionalized in the city and surrounding county. The quality and quantity of research in this area have improved markedly in recent years, but significant gaps in the extant research literature remain. The research dealing exclusively with African-Americans in Louisville focuses on the post-emancipation era. 1 Other general works focus on African-Americans at the statewide or regional levels of analysis but actually make very few references to conditions and relationships that existed before 1820. 2 The standard works on Louisville and Kentucky address the role of J.
