While the iron secrecy surrounding the conversation between the two dignitaries allowed for all kinds of speculation, the image of President Trump bowing to his Russian counterpart (indeed a treasure trove for semioticians), along with his declarations in the post-summit press conference, became, for many obser- vers in the U.S. and across the world, living proof of Mr. Trump´s subservient allegiance to Mr. Putin and his obscure designs. Even some of the most recalcitrant members of the GOP vented quite publicly their disgust at the sight of a president paying evident homage to the archenemy of the United States, as Vercingetorix kneeled down before Julius Cesar in recognition of the Gaul´s 1.

    GUIDE TO THE FROST AND HILL FAMILY PAPERS AT THE NEW ENGLAND HISTORIC GENEALOGICAL SOCIETY Abstract: Captain Charles Frost (1630-1697) and Major John Hill (1666-1713) were militia officers responsible for defending Kittery and Saco, Maine under the direction of Massachusetts authorities during King William’s War, 1689-1697. The collection contains military orders, commissions, and correspondence with scattered Frost, Hill and Pepperell family documents and business papers. Collection dates: 1675-1760. Volume: 47 items. Repository: R. Stanton Avery Special Collections Call Number: Mss 1055 Copyright ©2010 by New England Historic Genealogical Society. All rights reserved. Reproductions are not to be used for any purpose other than private study, scholarship, or research. Frost and Hill Family Papers Mss 1055 FAMILY HISTORY NOTE Names in bold represent creators of documents in this collection. FROST FAMILY CHARLES2 FROST (Nicholas1) was born in 1632 at Tiverton, England, and he was killed by Indians on 4 July 1697. Charles, at age 44, married on 27 December 1675 to MARY BOLLES. Mary was born 4 January 1641 in York, Maine, and she died 11 November 1704 in Wells, Maine. As a young child, Charles accompanied his family from England to the plantation of Pascataqua River in Maine. His father, Nicholas Frost (1585-1663), acquired two hundred acres in Kittery (incorporated in 1647). Charles Frost was frequently chosen as a representative for Kittery to the general court in Massachusetts. In 1669, the militia of Maine was organized into six companies one of which was commanded by Charles Frost. Frost was one of six councilors appointed to act as judges of the courts.

  • William "Of Ipswich"
    Descendants of William of Ipswich Averell Generation 1 1. WILLIAM OF IPSWICH1 AVERELL1-2 was born in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, England. He died between 03 Apr 1652-29 Mar 1653 in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts3. He married Abigail Hynton on 26 Nov 1618 in Chipping Norton, Oxfordshire, England2. She was born on 05 Oct 1595 in Bicester, Oxfordshire, England4. She died before Mar 1655 in Ipswich, Essex, Massachusetts5. Notes for William of Ipswich Averell: Decendants names appear as Everil, Averill, Averil, Avirel, Averel, Eviril, Averal The notes refer to this William Avery as William (Sr), who was also called Avery. According to the notes, William and Abigail Averell settled at Ipswich, Essex Co, MA before March, 1637. Also their last son was born in 1632 in England. Averill Book Notes Ipswich received its present name August 5, 1634. It was taken from common land which had been known as Aggawam before Captain John Smith visited it in 1614. It was occupied by settlers in 1628, but ordered abandoned in 1630; so that the first permanent settlement was made by John Winthrop, Jr. and his companions in 1632-1633, when it was called Plantation of Aggawam. The following year, 1634, about one hundred settlers came, and in 1635 a much larger number, including Bradstreets, Dudleys, Cogswells, Saltonstall, Jackson, Kinsman, Perley, Woodmansee, Andrews and others with whom William Averell was associated more or less. All the records we have of our progenitor from 1637 to 1653 show that he was a resident of Ipswich and these are found in the Town Proceedings of Ipswich (1634-1885), and Essex County Records at Salem (which include land transfers, probate records, court records, and two volumes of Essex County Marriages).

Hamilton From a distance, whether in time or space, most societies look more homogeneous than members perceive their societies to be. Distinctions that seem clear within the culture get blurred by outsiders who use the most general characteristics to describe the whole. We make broad generalizations because the intricacies of group identity can be overwhelming and too much information can obscure larger trends. Societies, however, are shaped not only by dominant groups, but also by the accommodations that these groups make to “others” in the society. Frequently, such adjustments are subtle, not rising to the level of diplomacy or public policy, yet over time may alter the society in visible ways. This article traces this process of change in seventeenth century Massachusetts, focusing on the influence of non-Puritan residents on the society of the Bay Colony.
