    Assistant Director of Carrollton Hall General Description Duties

    Assistant Director of Carrollton Hall Carrollton Hall is a residence built in 1832 by Charles Carroll of Carrollton, the last surviving signer of the Declaration of Independence, and is on the National Register of Historical Places. It is located in Ellicott City, Maryland on the grounds of the headquarters of the Our Lady of the Angels Province of the Franciscan Friars Conventual. One of wealthiest landholders in the new United States, Carroll built the neo-classical-style granite home for a granddaughter on a piece of his Doughoragen Manor estate known as “Folly Quarter.” For this project Carroll called upon architect William Small, a protégé of Benjamin Latrobe who had designed the U.S. Capitol and Baltimore’s Basilica of the Assumption. Besides Carroll’s granddaughter, Emily Caton McTavish, significant owners of the house included John Lee Carroll, the former Governor of Maryland, and Van Lear Black, publisher of the Baltimore Sun. The Franciscans have owned the property since 1928. Many historians consider this the most significant residence of its time. General Description In collaboration with the Director and Provincial leadership of the Our Lady of the Angels Province of the Franciscan Friars Conventual (OLAP), the Assistant Director will assist the Friars in developing the intellectual and interpretive strategies of Carrollton Hall’s educational programming including the research, design, and implementation of innovative exhibition strategies; care, management, and development of artifact, archival, and digital collections; development and production of dynamic educational and public programs; and serve as the liaison to Carrollton Hall volunteers. The Assistant Director will assist the Director, Provincial leadership of OLAP, and the Mission Advancement Office (MA) develop relationships with donors to meet budget expectations.

    Thomas Bancroft of Dedham and Reading, Massachusetts and Some

    1940] Thomas Bancroft and Some of His Descendants 215 THOMAS BANCROFT OF DEDHAM AND READING, MASS., AND SOME OF HIS DESCENDANTS Contributed by JOHN KERMOTT ALLEN, of Boston, Mass. 1. THOMAS BANCROFT, of Dedham and Reading, Mass., a native of England,* born about 1625,t died at Lynn, Mass., 19 Aug. 1691.t He married first at Dedham, 31: 1 mo. 1647, ALICE BACON, who died 29: 1 mo. 1648, daughter of Michael Bacon;§ and secondly, at Dedham, 15: 7 mo. 1648, ELIZABETH METCALF, baptized at St. Benedict's, Norwich, England, 20 Sept. 1626, died at Reading 11 May 1711, aged 85 years, daughter of Michael and Sarah (Ellwyn) Metcalf. (See REGISTER, vol. 6, pp. 171-173; vol. 78, p. 64.) The exact date of Thomas Bancroft's arrival in the Massachusetts Bay Colony is unknown. He may have come with his brother John Bancroft in 1632. He was made fatherless in England in 1627, but as his stepmother lived until 1639, it is probable that he remained in England rather than, when but ten years old, make the migration to America with his brother. The death of his stepmother in 1639 in England would have left him free to follow his relatives to America in 1640. In his "History of Lynn" Newhall includes "Lieut. Thomas Bancroft" among the newcomers in 1640. Thomas Bancroft, the subject of this article, was then but eighteen years old and could scarcely be correctly described as "lieutenant." However, he ac­ quired this title later, and was thereafter always r-eferred to as "Lieutenant Thomas Bancroft" or as "Ensign," so it is probable that he did come to Lynn among the newcomers in 1640.

UNIVERSITY SEAL AND MOTTO Soon after Northwestern University was founded, its Board of Trus- tees adopted an official corporate seal. This seal, approved on June 26, 1856, consisted of an open book surrounded by rays of light and circled by the words Northwestern University, Evanston, Illinois. Thirty years later, Daniel Bonbright, professor of Latin and a member of Northwestern's original faculty, redesigned the seal, retaining the book and light rays and adding two quotations. On the pages of the open book he placed a Greek quotation from the Gos- pel of Saint John, chapter 1, verse 14, translating to The Word . full ofgrace and truth. Circling the book are the first three words, in Latin, of the University motto: Quaecumque sunt vera (What- soever things are true). The outer border of the seal carries the name of the Uruversity and the date of its founding. This seal, which remains Northwestern's official signature, was approved by the Board of Trustees on December 5, 1890. The full text of the University motto, adopted on June 17, 1890, is from the Epistle of Saint Paul to the PhDlippians, chapter 4, verse 8: Whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are ofgood report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things.
