  • Appendix a Excerpts from Colonists of Carolina
    Page 168 Appendix A Appendix A Excerpts from Colonists of Carolina Excerpted from Colonists of Carolina, The W. D. Humphrey Family, By Blanche Humphrey Abee, 1938. Craven County Library. Bracketed numbers are original page numbers. CHAPTER I ONSLOW COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA, HOME OF THE HUMPHREY FAMILY The territory south of Virginia's eastern border was named in 1562, "Carolina," by John Ribault, a French navigator. In 1587 Sir Walter Raleigh planted the "Lost Colony" on Roanoke. Island. At the close of the Indian wars, 1711-1714, North Carolina was divided into three counties: Albemarle, Chowan, and Bath. Subdivisions were called precincts. Bath was divided into Beaufort, Hyde, Craven, and Carteret precincts. Onslow County, adjacent to the Atlantic Ocean and traversed by New River, was formed from Carteret County; and early records are often found there, as well as in Craven County. It was named for Hon. Arthur Onslow, distinguished Speaker of the House of Commons of England, one of the greatest parliamentarians of all time. It is of record that the county was formed in 1734; but at a Council at Edenton, November 21, 1731, there was a petition from inhabitants of White Oak River, New River, and Topsail Sound, reciting the hardship and expense of going to Carteret court. The county boundary lines were designated and the following men were appointed justices: Edward Marshburn, Joseph Mumford, Thomas Johnston , captain Francis Brice, Christopher Dudley, Nicholas Hunter, Abraham Mitchell, Richard Nickson, and John Frederick. This court was to sit quarterly on the first Tuesday in January, April, July, and October. Among the proceedings of the court of January 1, 1734, was a deed from Richard William Silvester proved by the oath of Thomas Taylor and Annas Cavanaugh to Edward Ward, and ordered to be recorded.

  • Ancestry of George W. Bush Compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner
    Ancestry of George W. Bush (b. 1946) Page 1 of 150 Ancestry of George W. Bush compiled by William Addams Reitwiesner The following material on the immediate ancestry of George W. Bush was initially compiled from two sources: The ancestry of his father, President George Bush, as printed in Gary Boyd Roberts, Ancestors of American Presidents, First Authoritative Edition [Santa Clarita, Cal.: Boyer, 1995], pp. 121-130. The ancestry of his mother, Barbara Bush, based on the unpublished work of Michael E. Pollock, [email protected]. The contribution of the undersigned consists mostly in collating and renumbering the material cited above, adding considerable information from the decennial censuses and elsewhere, and HTML-izing the results. The relationships to other persons (see the NOTES section below) are intended to be illustrative rather than exhaustive, and are taken mostly from Mr. Roberts' Notable Kin and Ancestors of American Presidents books, with extensions, where appropriate, from John Young's American Reference Genealogy and from my own, generally unpublished, research. This page can be found at two places on the World Wide Web, first at http://hometown.aol.com/wreitwiesn/candidates2000/bush.html and again at http://homepages.rootsweb.com/~addams/presidential/bush.html. The first site will be updated first and more frequently, while the second site will be more stable. William Addams Reitwiesner [email protected] Ancestry of George W. Bush George Walker Bush, b.

  • NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions by Ned Hémard
    NEW ORLEANS NOSTALGIA Remembering New Orleans History, Culture and Traditions By Ned Hémard A Visit to the Drawing Room of James and Dolley Madison On a recent visit to Montpelier, the home of our fourth President James Madison and his wife Dolley (four miles south of Orange, Virginia), I visited the room where the Madisons welcomed their guests. The epicenter of cultured entertaining, Montpelier’s Drawing Room, then as now, has an impressive Venetian doorway and is adorned in crimson damasque wallpaper. The numerous portraits hang in the same spots, and there is a table set for chess plus other amusements such as a static electricity machine (mildly shocking to participants in Madison’s scientific demonstration). One also observes a comfortable low-slung Campeachy chair, “commonly to be had in New Orleans” according to Thomas Jefferson (who also loved his). Partial view of the Drawing Room James and Dolley are the two lower portraits Anne Mercer Slaughter visited in 1825 and reported, “The statuary and painting at Montpelier exceeded anything my youthful imagination had ever conceived.” Margaret Bayard Smith was a visitor three years later and described the Drawing Room’s furnishings: “The mantelpiece, tables in each corner and in fact wherever one can be fixed, were filled with busts, and groups of figures in plaster, so that this apartment had … the appearance of a museum of the arts.” Approach to Montpelier, home of James and Dolley Madison The busts include those of George Washington, the Marquis de Lafayette, Madison himself, Benjamin Franklin, Thomas Jefferson and Edward Livingston, a brilliant New Orleans lawyer.
