A Word of Introduction I have had this book published to the memory of my father, Roswell Parish, who compiled the material over a period of more than 50 years. He retired at 70, lived to be 92 years old, and the last 20 years of his life were spent almost entirely in gathering together this genea­ logy of the descendants of John Parish, also a much larger one of the descendants of Richard (Bull) Smith of Smithtown, L. I., forebears on his mother's side. The beginnings of this material came from family records and as dates and new names were added from various publications and as discrepancies and occasional errors appeared, the gathering and arranging of what seemed reliable material, especially of dates, became an interest­ ing avocation with a view to a more correct and compre­ hensive record of John's descendants. For purpose of cross reference and indexing, but with no suspicion then of its peculiar advantages, the following was very early adopted as a convenient :r-rUMBER SYSTEM. The children of every family were numbered from 1 up as listed, but in cases of more than nine children "a" was used for 10, "b" for 11, etc. A capital letter was used for the founder (in this case J. for John) and name numbers for successive members of the group were formed by annexing their respective family numbers (1-2-3, etc.) to the name number of the parent. Thus the first John's son Samuel is J.2-Mary is J.b.­ Benjamin's son Benjamin is J.31. It was found that these ui A Word of Introduction name numbers were very useful for reference and as time-savers. Thus the number of digits and letters tells the generation of the person designated. J.93a. was of the fourth generation. Moreover that name number not only names Abraham Parish hut also contains the name number of his successive ancestors in a line back to John! So much for this number system. The material has been brought through the eighth generation, as that should bring it far enough for other lines, either direct or indirect, to be connected with the genealogy, if the connection is there. We are indebted to all those who were kind enough to give their assist­ ance in the preparation of this material, many of whom will be found listed at the beginning of the book. Their co-operation has extended !n many cases over long periods of time and their generous interest has been of ·great help. ROSWELL PARISH, JR.

    THE THEATRICAL HISTORY OF WICHITA, KANSAS ' I 1872 - 1920 by Patricia Ann Mather A.B., University __of Wichita, 1945 Submitted to the Department of Speech and Drama and the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts. Redacted Signature Instructor in charf;& Redacted Signature Sept ember, 19 50 'For tne department PREFACE In the following thesis the author has attempted to give a general,. and when deemed.essential, a specific picture of the theatre in early day Wichita. By "theatre" is meant a.11 that passed for stage entertainment in the halls and shm1 houses in the city• s infancy, principally during the 70' s and 80 1 s when the city was still very young,: up to the hey-day of the legitimate theatre which reached. its peak in the 90' s and the first ~ decade of the new century. The author has not only tried to give an over- all picture of the theatre in early day Wichita, but has attempted to show that the plays presented in the theatres of Wichita were representative of the plays and stage performances throughout the country. The years included in the research were from 1872 to 1920. There were several factors which governed the choice of these dates. First, in 1872 the city was incorporated, and in that year the first edition of the Wichita Eagle was printed. Second, after 1920 a great change began taking place in the-theatre. There were various reasons for this change.

  • The House Clerk As Party Operative, 1789-1870
    More than Just a Mouthpiece: The House Clerk as Party Operative, 1789-1870 Jeffery A. Jenkins [email protected] Department of Political Science Northwestern University and Charles Stewart III [email protected] Department of Political Science Massachusetts Institute of Technology An earlier version of this paper was presented at the annual meeting of the American Political Science Association, Chicago, September 2–5, 2004. We thank Garry Young for many helpful suggestions. I. Introduction In the years preceding the Civil War, the U.S. House of Representatives was often a focal point for sectional and partisan struggle. One manifestation of this struggle was the chamber’s persistent difficulty in organizing itself for business. Half of the twelve Congresses that convened from 1839 to 1861 witnessed protracted balloting for the House Speakership. Twice, in the 31st and 34th Congresses, balloting persisted for weeks; divisions seemed so insurmountable that proposals were seriously considered to adjourn these Congresses and await new elections. Battles over the Speakership were the most visible of the sectional and partisan contests for control of the House in the antebellum era, but there were others. Recent research by Jeffery A. Jenkins and Charles Stewart III has shown that the House Printer was a highly prized position because of its patronage potential and centrality to the network of partisan newspapers that were so critical to the success of the Jacksonian Democratic party.1 Indeed, the move to viva voce voting in elections for House officers did not occur because of Speakership stalemates, but rather because of wrangling over the choice of Printer.

Finding aid created in 2006. Revised and expanded in 2008. Copyright © 2006-2008 Brooklyn Public Library. All rights reserved. Descriptive Summary Creator: Various Title: Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection Date Span: 1875-1972 Abstract: The Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection consists of 800 playbills and programs for motion pictures, musical concerts, high school commencement exercises, lectures, photoplays, vaudeville, and burlesque, as well as the more traditional offerings such as plays and operas, all from Brooklyn theaters. Quantity: 2.25 linear feet Location: Brooklyn Collection Map Room, cabinet 11 Repository: Brooklyn Public Library – Brooklyn Collection Reference Code: BC0071 Scope and Content Note The 800 items in the Brooklyn Theater Playbills and Programs Collection, which occupies 2.25 cubic feet, easily refute the stereotypes of Brooklyn as provincial and insular. From the late 1880s until the 1940s, the period covered by the bulk of these materials, the performing arts thrived in Brooklyn and were available to residents right at their doorsteps. At one point, there were over 200 theaters in Brooklyn. Frequented by the rich, the middle class and the working poor, they enjoyed mass popularity. With materials from 115 different theaters, the collection spans almost a century, from 1875 to 1972. The highest concentration is in the years 1890 to 1909, with approximately 450 items.

    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original 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 hand corner 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.
