This volume is presented toa'l interested in the history of "James Nourse and His Descendants." with the hope that they will kindly overlook any imperfections they may chance to discover, remember­ ing the work was not undertaken for money. Every effort lias been made to secure the best results. We were not discouraged, although forewarned at the beginning that there was a " great deal of hard work in store and an almost thankless task" before us. Very few refused to give the information asked, while many took special pains to add words of approbation and encouragement. Instead of being a task, it has proved a pleasure. The necessary correspondence has in many instances led to personal acquaintance and lasting friend­ ship. It would be impossible to give the names of all to whom we are indebted for assistance. First among them, however, must be men­ tioned Mr.. James B. Nourse and his sisters, Masses Mary and Rosa M..Nourse, of " The Highlands.". Washington, D. C. Relatives have been ever welcome to theirlovely home and given free use of family records, which were so carefully preserved by their grandfather, Joseph Nourse, and handed down to them as a precious legacy by their father, Major Charles J. Nourse. Many thanks aro due to Mrs. Anita Newcomb McGee, M. D.,of '•Washington, D. C, for a eery large contribution of data collected . by herself at the expense of many years of work ; also, for numerous \. sketches. Mr. W J McGee made valuable suggestions. Rev. James M. Nourse, of Manassas; Mrs. Albert 1). Brockett, of Alexandria, Virginia; Judge R. O. Cravens, of Sacramento, California; Mr. Abner M. Sisson, of Hannibal, Missouri; Mrs. S. A. McDonald, of Jameson, Missouri; Mrs. Martha Susm Elliott, of Spalding, Mis­ souri; Rev. M. B. Riddle, D. D.,of Alegheny, Pennsylvania; Miss Iv rilKFACE. Lavinia Riddle, of Vernon, Texas; Mrs. Susan M. Marshall, of Nashvillo, Tennessee ; Miss Jane Nourso, of Bardstown ; Miss Anno Nourso, of Elizabothtown, Kentucky, and many others, aro gratefully remembered for their cheerful and prompt assistance It may be well to mention some others bearing tho samo name, though not related to James Nourse. The first to come to America, so far as known to the writer, were Francis Nurse (born 101S) and Rebecca Nurse. It is said they came from Yarmouth, England. Many of their descendants are scattered throughout the United States. Miles Nourse and wife with three sons and a daughter came from Manchester, England, to New York in 1S56. Reverend Robert Nourse, the popular lecturer, came from Norfolk, England, about 1S73, and resides in Fairfax county, Virginia. It has been said that there is a "striking likeness between members of his family and some of the descendants of James Nourse in physical feature and mental and moral peculiarity." Mr. Samuel Osborne Nourse (died July 3t, 1872) came from Bar- badoes, West Indies, and settled in Pennsylvania. His wife was Jane Barnes Green,'an aunt of John Fiske, the historian. A daugh­ ter, Mrs. H. B. Jacobs, and son, Charles Frederick Nourse, live in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. Their other children are Clarence Atlee and Misses Victoria Louise and Florence Ada Nourse of Washing­ ton, D. C. They have the same coat of arms as James Nourse with this motto : " Virtu non Artifico." (" By courage, not by cunning.") It is said, a " Nourfe" came to this country from Cork, Ireland, 6ome years ago. If there are any others, an extensive correspond­ ence with persons of the name has failed to discover them. KEY TO NUMBERING OF DESCENDANTS. James Nourse is number one of both consecutive and exponent numbers. Consecutive numbers from one to one hundred and twenty-seven show every one whose surname was Nourse, who became the head of a family. Exponent number's mark the generations, for example: 2 1 3 CHARLES3 NOURSE, (Gabriel , James ). Charles is grandson of James1; Gabriel2 is son of James1. Descendants not named Nourse are given immediately after their parents, and are marked by indentations, exponent numbers and small numbers. The second generation are. the children of, .James and Sarah-. (Fouace) Nourse, and each one of-these, with his Or' Ber descendants' makes a separate chapter; so that there will be very little tracing necessary to find the third, fourth pr even the sixth and seventh generations.

PARISH OF WESTON-UNDER-PENYARD, HEREFORDSHIRE, ENGLAND. "Weston is bounded north by Upton Bishops; south by Walford and Hope Mansel; east by Linton and Lea, and on west by Ross. The word 'Westune' denotes the position of its vill towards Brome- ash, the place where the Hundred Courts in this district were once held, and its adjunct is allusive of the elevated woody eminence under which it is placed." Or, as given in Robinson's "Hous'es and Manors in Herefordshire, ^England," " 'Weston-under-Penyard,' as its name indicates, is a town built on the west side of the Roman settlement of Onconium, and is beneath the wooded slopes of 'Penyard Chase.'" •• • Westunie and Ponchille estates were taken from the Saxon owner Gunner, and given to Durand of' Gloucester, the first Norman sheriff of that county. The lessee of these manors was Bernard (New-march), a favored friend, if not a relative, of William I., who had accompanied the invaders and assisted at Hastings. Iu A. D. 1092, collecting a party of resolute companions, he invaded Breconshire. In the twelfth century a family whose name is mentioned in records as De Brett, Britte, Brut and Brute, were lessees of tho manor of Weston. In the war between King John and tho Barons, the sheriff of Herefordshire was directed to give Richard Talbot, Lord of Eccleswall manor, the lands and tenements in Westune occupied by Matthew La Brett, who was with the king's enemies. After tho compact of Runnymedo, this writ of confiscation was reversed. Tho Manor of Weston Brette was part of the Rudhall estate in the fifteenth century. 2 li/.'Mv ,x-isiii:i;-ri:.\YA nn. •Lower Weston was the scat of tho Nourso family from pro- Reformation date to the present century, [nineteenth]. In A. D. 1531 William Wyllca, of Petcrstow, obtained an Episcopal license for his marriage with Johanna Nourso, of Woston, at which poriod a John Nourse (of Weston) occupied as tenant, lands in tho parish belonging to a charity founded in tho Cathedral Church at Hereford.

WALTER NOURSE, who married Christiana, daughter of Sir Fre erick Wall of Lintrige, of Gloucestershire, was buried in the church in 1609, aged 65, and his son. JOHN held at the time of his death the house of Lower Weston with 70 acres, the farms Brook, Walton and Woodend, lands in the parishes of Dymock, Newent, and'Whit Church. He married Joan, daughter of Sir John Kyrie [of +Much Marcle in the county of Hereford], who became his widow in 1630, with seven sons, the eld­ est of whom, John, was then thirteen years of age. The wardship and marriage of her son was purchased by his mother for £40, and she obtained a lease of the family estates, during the minority at rental of £9, for the support of her children. This John married Lettice, third daughter of William Jones of Treowen, in the countv of-Monmouth (Wales). He died- in 1670.- • -.

They divorced and she married the artist Will H. Low in 1909; he had also studied with Carolus-Duran and the Ecoles de Beaux Arts.3 He was renowned as a mural and landscape painter. After their marriage, she lived in Bronxville, New York, just outside of New York City. Her figure paintings were exhibited in both France and the United States with great frequency.4 This was a substantial commission from a major artist and suggests the important status of the family within the city of Worcester. For example, in 1905, the parents of Harry W. Goddard celebrated their fiftieth wedding anniversary in the brand new residence at 190 Salisbury Street. At the same event, Eleanor Goddard celebrated her sixteenth birthday.

  • Those Good Gertrudes: a Social History of Women Teachers in America Author’S Annotated Introduction to Manuscript Collections
    Those Good Gertrudes: A Social History of Women Teachers in America Author’s Annotated Introduction to Manuscript Collections Researching this book led the author to promising collections in many archives in the United States, and to Australia and Canada where scholarship flourishes on teachers and teaching. This addendum is an annotated introduction to virtually all the collections examined for Those Good Gertrudes, the majority of them not cited nor referenced in the published book because of space limitations. The organization is alphabetical, by state and collection title. Annotations generally feature the collection‘s relevance to the particular focus of this work: American women teachers and their place in history. However, researchers working on related subjects may find useful material in various of these collections—for example on child-rearing and family life, genealogy, local history, regionalism, the frontier experience, industrialization, cross-national comparisons, and the expression and effects of social diversity rooted in social class, religion, race and ethnicity, politics, and the saliency of gender identity. A few generally-obscure printed works unpublished student-authored papers housed in archival libraries are cited. Each annotation is followed, where recoverable, by the date [in brackets] when the collection was first consulted by the author. Be advised that collections (as with some of the following) may change over time—by additions, deletions, mergers, renaming, and relocation—or be withdrawn entirely. Moreover, Finding Aids and collection inventories differ markedly from one depository to another in their on-line accessibility, completeness, & stability. A small number of collections are missing, probably the result of being misfiled; if located they will be added, and the listing updated.
