Y.; Mr. John Insley Coddington of Arlington, Va.; Mr. Willis Freeman of Chicago, Ill.; Mr. Charles Carroll Gardner of Maplewood, N. J.; and Mr. John P. Dornan of Havertown, Pa. Thanks are also due to the editors of the New England Historical and Genealogical Register for permission to include Mrs. Christian's article, "Nathaniel2 Fitz Randolph of Woodbridge, New Jersey, Quaker, and His Descendants," - with many additions and corrections - in this genealogy of the entire family, and to Mrs. Joseph W. Greene of the New Jersey Historical Society, and Mr. Arthur S. Maynard of the New York Genealogical and Biographical Society. H. S. F. R. THE DESCENDANTS OF EDWARD FITZ RANDOLPH EDWARD FITZ RANDOLPH, the Pilgrim, and the progenitor of the Fitz Randolph family in America, was undoubtedly the "Edward Fitzrandall," son of Edward Fitz., Randolph or Randall and his second wife Frances Howis or Howes, baptised at Sutton -in-Ashfield, co. Nottingham, England, on July 8, 1607. •Fitz Randolph rr:'raditions" by the late Lewis Van Syckel8 Fitz Randolph (No. 770 in this genealogy), gives much on the English antecedents of the family. Among the seven hundred passengers who came over in the eleven vessels which comprised the "Winthrop Fleet" and which was known as the "Great Immigration" of 1630, was Edward Fitz Randolph, who settled at Scituate, Massachusetts. Pastor Lathrop's diary asserts that "the young Mas [Master] Edward ffitsrandolph built the 38 house in Scituate, Mass." He married in Scituate, May 10, 1637, ELIZABETH BLOSSOM, the daughter of Elder Thomas Blossom and his wife Ann Heilson (Eilsdon, Elsden, Elston, Alston), who were married at St. Clements, Cambridge, Cambridgeshire, England, Nov. 10, 1605 [3, 111]. Elizabeth was born in Leyden, Holland, in 1620 [ 1], soon after her parents were forced, by the condition of the Speedwell - the companion boat to the Mayflower - to return to Holland, where so many of their persecuted friends had sought refuge with Pastor Robinson in that hospitable country. Edward and Elizabeth moved from Scituate to Barnstable, Mass. in 1639, and. his name appears in the list of those able to bear arms in New Plymouth in 1643. In 1649 Edward moved from Barnstable to his farm, "a great double lot," in West Barnstable, and in 1669, with his wife and six of his children, he sought a new home in Piscataway, New Jersey, leaving his son Nathaniel and his daughter Mary, wife of Samuel Hinckley in West Barnstable, and his daughter Hannah, wife of Jasper Taylor, in Yarmouth. In the "Book of Records" of Nathaniel Fitz Randolph it states that "Edward lived to be nearly eighty years of age." It is often stated that Edward died in Piscataway in 1675 or 1676, which would make him only about· 68 or 69 at his death, so it seems probable that he lived until 1684 or 1685. After Edward's death Elizabeth gave her four sons, John, Joseph, Thomas and Benjamin, on June 26, 1685 [ 6], the land she had located in her husband's name, and on June 30, 1685 [7], she married Capt. JOHN PIKE of Woodbridge, N. J. Julianna7 Fitz Ran4olph Wood (No. 188:i) tells us in her "Family Sketches" that Elizabeth "was buried by her first husband" in the west corner of what is now St. James Churchyard, Piscataway, N. J. During the Revolution, as the British troops came down King George's Highway (now Woodbridge Avenue) breastworks were thrown across the plot, and after the war was over and the ground leveled, no trace was found of the tombstones of either Edward or Elizabeth. FIB.ST GENERATION 1. EDWARD1 FITZ RANDOLPH, baptised at Sutton-in-Ashfield, Nottinghamshire, England, July 5, 1607; emigrated in 1630 to Scituate, Mass.; died in Piscataway, N. J. about 1684-5. He married May 10, 1637 [ 1, 2], ELIZABETH BLOSSOM, born in Leyden, the Netherlands, in 1620. She married second June 30, 1685, Capt. JOHN PIKE, and died in Woodbridge or Piscataway in 1713.

May 15, 1642 at Barnstable, Mass.; died in Woodbridge, N. J. Nov. 21, 1713 [14]. He married first, in Barnstable or Sandwich, Mass., in November, 1662 [2, 10], MARY HOLLEY (Holloway, Holway), born in Sandwich, died in Woodbridge, N. J., July 12, 1703, daughter of Joseph and Rose (Allen) Holley of Sandwich. Her mother, Rose (Allen) Holley, married second May 19, 1648, William Newlands, a Quaker. Nathaniel Fitz Randolph married second, at the Haddonfield Meeting, Haddon­ field, N. J., Apr. 12, 1706, as her third husband, JANE (CURTIS-OGBORNE) HAMPTON, born at Bugbrooke, co. Northampton, England, 11th of 2nd month (April), 1661 [111], and died in Buckingham Township, Bucks Co., Pa. [13] in 1731. She was the daughter of Thomas and Jane Curtis, and widow of Samuel Ogborne and John Hampton, whose executrix she was Dec. 8, 1694. As the widow of Nathaniel Fitz Randolph she married, as her fourth husband, John Sharp of Burlington, N. J. Her own will, as Jane Sharp, of Buckingham Township, Bucks Co., Pa., was dated 8th of 6 mo. (Aug.) 1729, and was proved Nov. 13, 1731, and mentions her sons Samuel Ogborne, Joseph Hampton, Benjamin Fitzrandall, and daughters Mary, wife of Jonas Kemble, and Sarah, wife of Edmond Kinsey. The executor was her son-in-law Edmond Kinsey. Nathaniel Fitz Randolph was one of the four who first asked for religious tolerance for the Friends in New England. In 1677 he, having joined the Quakers years before, and had in consequence suffered much persecution from the Plymouth Government, exchanged his house in Barnstable for land in Woodbridge, N. J. and in the year afterwards, 1678-9, moved with his family to ~ew Jersey. He served as associate justice of Middlesex County, N. J., in 1688, 1692, and 1698; and in 1693-5 he represented Woodbridge in the Provisional Assembly. In 1683, on the death of James Bollen, first Secretary of the Province, he was one of the two guardians of his children, and, on the establishment of the Woodbridge Monthly Meeting of Friends in 1706, he became a prominent member of the Society, and for seven years the Meeting was held in his house, until the completion of the Meeting House in 1713, two months before his death.

Governing New Jersey: Reflections on the Publication of a Revised and Expanded Edition of 'The Governors of New Jersey' Abstract New Jersey’s chief executive enjoys more authority than any but a handful of governors in the United States. Historically speaking, however, New Jersey’s governors exercised less influence than met the eye. In the colonial period few proprietary or royal governors were able to make policy in the face of combative assemblies. The Revolutionary generation’s hostility to executive power contributed to a weak governor system that carried over into the 19th and 20th centuries, until the Constitution was thoroughly revised in 1947.

  • The Ethic, Phenomenology and Diagnostic of Post-War French Psychiatry
    The Ethic, Phenomenology and Diagnostic of post-war French Psychiatry Thesis submitted to the University of London for the award of Doctor of Philosophy By, David Reggio Goldsmiths College, Department ofHistory, University of London November 2005 1 Abstract of Thesis The thesis seeks to examine the ethical, phenomenological and diagnostic renewal of psychiatry in post-war France. The particular focus of study will be to bring to light (1) the emergence of a psychiatric movement that was to become known as Institutional Psychotherapy in 1952, (2) the inauguration of a particular post-war clinical sentiment of sympathy, (3) and the more specific developments of the psychopathology of schizophrenia undertaken by Dr. Franyois Tosquelles and Dr. Jean Oury. The thesis is composed of three chapters: The first chapter of the thesis, presents a bi-focal analysis of a philanthropic politic characterising two significant moments of medical reform, where psychiatry finds its Hippocratic and Apostolic definition as a vocation addressing the imperial need of man. The first moment, is that of Philippe Pinel in a Post­ Revolutionary France, who urged for more specialised spaces employing the non-violent treatment of the insane. The second, is the German Occupation of France, where the psychiatrist's personage in the questionably 'free' Vichy South is one that is dramatic and resistant. This historical study is conducted in order to bring to light the methodological shift within the history of European psychiatry: what was the art of medicine and alienation for Pinel of the Paris Pitie Salpetriere, is extended and redefmed as the art ofsympathy and dis-alienation for those of the clinical fraternity of Saint-Alban.

  • Freedom and Unfreedom in the “Garden of America:”
    FREEDOM AND UNFREEDOM IN THE “GARDEN OF AMERICA:” SLAVERY AND ABOLITION IN NEW JERSEY, 1770-1857 by James J. Gigantino II (Under the Direction of Allan Kulikoff) ABSTRACT This dissertation examines abolition in New Jersey between 1770 and 1857. It argues that the American Revolution did not lead white New Jerseyans to abolish slavery. Instead, the Revolutionary War and the years following it reinforced the institution of slavery in the Garden State. This dissertation first focuses on the factors that led New Jersey to pass the Gradual Abolition Act of 1804, specifically the rise of Jeffersonian Republicanism and the influence of Quaker abolition activists and then examines the elongated abolition period which followed the enactment of gradual abolition, beginning with the role of the children born under the law, those who I call slaves for a term. The role these children played in early national America challenges our understandings of slavery and freedom. Instead of a quick abolition process, slaves and slaves for a term in New Jersey continued to serve their masters in significant numbers until the 1840s and then in smaller proportions until the eve of the Civil War. The existence of slavery in a free state challenges our understanding of the rise of capitalism in the early republic as well as the role the North played in debates over nationwide slavery issues beginning in the 1820s. This long-standing relationship to slavery helped prevent the formation of a strong abolitionist base in the 1830s and influenced Northern images of African Americans until the Civil War. Abolition in the North became very much a process, one of fits and starts which stretched from the Revolution to the Civil War and defined how Americans, white and black, understood their place in the new republic.

    Fisher 1 The Votes of the “Privileged Fair”: Women’s Suffrage in New Jersey, 1776-1807 Louis Fisher Senior Thesis April 2011 Advisor: Professor Emma Winter Second Reader: Professor Evan Haefeli Word Count: 15,608 (20,558 including footnotes) Fisher 2 Acknowledgments The completion of this project represents the capstone of my undergraduate studies, and there are many people who deserve thanks for their contributions and advice. I would first like to thank all of the excellent professors with whom I have had the privilege to study at Columbia. These teachers introduced me to many exciting ideas, challenged me in my development as a student of history, and repeatedly demonstrated why the study of history remains an important intellectual pursuit. I am especially indebted to Professor Emma Winter for her advice and encouragement in seminar, and for reading numerous drafts, followed by helpful and discerning comments each time. Professor Evan Haefeli also provided vital criticisms, which improved both the outcome of this project and my understanding of historical writing. I am also grateful to Mike Neuss for his support and interest in discussing this thesis with me in its earliest stages. My friends and fellow thesis writers also deserve recognition for offering to read drafts and for taking an interest in discussing and challenging my ideas as this project took shape—my friends and colleagues at Columbia have undoubtedly contributed in many ways to my intellectual development over the past four years. Finally, I would like to thank both of my parents and my family for their love and support, and for providing me with the opportunity to pursue all of my academic goals.

  • The Story of Nursing in British Mental Hospitals
    Downloaded by [New York University] at 12:59 29 November 2016 The Story of Nursing in British Mental Hospitals From their beginnings as the asylum attendants of the nineteenth century, mental health nurses have come a long way. This is the first comprehensive history of mental health nursing in Britain in over twenty years, and during this period the landscape has transformed as the large institutions have been replaced by services in the community. McCrae and Nolan examine how the role of mental health nursing has evolved in a social and professional context, brought to life by an abundance of anecdotal accounts. The nine chronologically ordered chapters follow the development from untrained attendants in the pauper lunatic asylums to the professionally qualified nurses of the twentieth century, and, finally, consider the rundown and closure of the mental hospitals from nurses’ perspectives. Throughout, the argument is made that while the training, organisation and environment of mental health nursing has changed, the aim has remained essentially the same: to nurture a therapeutic relationship with people in distress. McCrae and Nolan look forward as well as back, and highlight significant messages for the future of mental health care. For mental health nursing to be meaningfully directed, we must first understand the place from which this field has developed. This scholarly but accessible book is aimed at anyone with an interest in mental health or social history, and will also act as a useful resource for policy- makers, managers and mental health workers. Niall McCrae is a lecturer in mental health nursing at Florence Nightingale Faculty of Nursing & Midwifery, King’s College London.

ROCKEFELLER Edited by DONALD A. SINCLAIR New Brunswick, N.J. ARCHIBALD STEVENS ALEXANDER LIBRARY RUTGERS UNIVERSITY / 1980 Printed in Letterpress by JKG PRINTING, INC. Edison, N. J. 1980 Introduction SHAW AND SHOEMAKER'S American Bibliography, 18oi-i8ig,* is a list of pub- lications printed in the continental United States during those years. As Professor Shaw states in the preface of the first volume, the work was intended to make the first step toward filling a gap in American bibliography. The authors make no claim to a definitive work but label it A Preliminary Check- list. The purpose of the present list is to enlarge, as far as I am able, the number of recorded publications printed or published in the state of New Jersey in that period. Nearly all the entries in this list are products of New Jersey presses, with a few printed elsewhere. Some which do not contain the name of the printer, place of printing, or publication., are included tentatively, since it seems logical to assume they were printed or published here. There are certain differences in the method of listing which have seemed desirable. The Shaw-Shoemaker bibliography, involving nearly 52,000 entries, was prepared entirely from secondary sources, which is the only way it could have been completed within the lifetime of the authors.

  • Passenger Lists in Newspapers, on Microfilm, and Some Other Sources Held at Christchurch City Libraries
    January 2013 A guide to some of the 19th century passenger lists in newspapers, on microfilm, and some other sources held at Christchurch City Libraries Port Lyttelton, showing the first four ships and emigrants landing from the Cressy, December 28th 1850. Page 1 of 63 January 2013 The First Four Ships arrived December 1850. The ships arriving between December 1850-1853 were Canterbury Association vessels. The ships arriving between 1853-1855 came independently and not under the auspices of a government or quasi-government body. The Lyttelton Times was published from January 1851; The Press was published from 1861. At first both were published twice weekly meaning passenger lists appear in a shipping column a few days after a vessel arrives. 1850-1855 paying passengers are usually listed. Assisted passengers are not listed by name, appearing only as “and 27 in the steerage”. From 1855-1870 the Canterbury Provincial Government was in charge of immigration to Canterbury and had an emigration agent stationed in London. To help find employment for migrants, the government supplied lists of assisted migrants to the newspapers. The names of male heads of families, their home county in Britain (or their country in Europe), if they had a spouse and the number of children they brought, are published. The first names of a wife and children are not given. Children of immigrants who were older than about 12 were considered adults and are listed among the single men and women along with other single people. Sometimes the assisted people are grouped according to their occupations so that prospective employers might quickly select prospective employees.
