I also acknowledge and thank all the people of the Church who have contributed material to complete this book, and I especially thank all those who worked so hard in preparation for the Bicentennial Observance held on August 29, 1976. Compiling and editing the material has been a rich and rewarding experience; one that has made me very much aware of the Christian faith and beliefs of the people of Carver's Creek United Methodist Church down through the ye';lrs. This historical Church is steeped in tradition. that dates back to the settling of the Carver's Creek section of Bladen County. It is a tradition that has been carried on by the people who have committed their lives to the principles set down by our Lord, Jesus Christ. Down through the years Carver's Creek United Methodist Church has been aware of her mission and witness, and has carried on a program that has nutured the Spiritual life of the people in her Charge. By the grace of Almighty God, and the future commitment of her congregations, she will continue to do so for many years to come. Again, I thank God for the opportunity that He has given me to be a part of the ministry and leadership of this, His Church The Reverend Johnnie S.

'"::: ..:r ..a, Carver's Creek United Methodist Church is rich in history and steeped in tradition that dates back to the settling of the Cape F ear River Community of Carver's Creek, Carver's Creek was one of the first sections of Bladen County to be settled by our forefathers. Between 1730 and 1750 many families had acquired land, either by grant from the King of England or by purchase from the Lord's Proprietors. Back in those days the western bank of the Cape Fear River was rich with tracts of well timbered land which came into the possession of the early settlers. The people who first inhabited the Carver's Creek section wer~ mostly of English stock. Like other pioneers of that age they were a sturdy, industrious, peace-loving, .and God fearing people They at once began to cle ar the forest and establish homes along the river, and became an agricultural region. The woods were filled with virgin long leaf pine; therefore, their homes were built of the best timber in the country and all the work was done by hand with great care an d pride in their workmanship. At the time two houses w~re built with brick brought over from England. They were the Brown Home at Oakland and the Andres Home at Ramah. Ramah has long since burned, but Oakland still stands today as it did before the Revolution. Other early plantations were White Hall, Mount Holly, Ashwood, Strawberry (which was part of Ramah), Brighton, Nancy Hall, Westbrook, and Kings Bluff. By the year of 1750 a large number of people had established homes and plan tations along the banks of the Cape Fear River in the Carver's Creek section of Bladen County. Among were a group of Quakers who built a log meeting house on the site where Carver's Creek United Methodist Church now stands. The Quakers worshipped there until the outbreak of the War of the Revolution. Being a peace-loving people they dreaded the horrors of war so they refused to take part in the hostility. Many of them moved from Carver's Creek and settled in Mecklenburg and Guilford Counties. As the war spread, ', they found once again that they were in the midst of hostilites; so therefore, .. they joined wholeheartedly and fought valiantly for the cause of the Colonies until the su r r ende r of Cornwallis.

  • Methodism and the Negotiation of Masculinity
    SERVING TWO MASTERS: METHODISM AND THE NEGOTIATION OF MASCULINITY IN THE ANTEBELLUM SOUTH by CHARITY RAKESTRAW CARNEY A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History in the Graduate School of The University of Alabama TUSCALOOSA, ALABAMA 2009 Copyright Charity Rakestraw Carney 2009 ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ABSTRACT This dissertation examines the development of a distinct southern Methodist masculinity from the 1830s to the 1860s. More than a church history, this study explores the relationship between non-religious and religious society, the tensions inherent in to relationship, and the ethical questions that emerged from that tension. As Methodism evolved in the South, it took on regional social practices and affectations while also maintaining a denominational identity that opposed southern culture. Southern Methodists served two masters—the church and society— and both demanded obedience to divergent visions of masculinity and manhood. Although they rejected many manly pursuits, ministers adopted a proslavery ideology and patriarchal practices and reflected southern attitudes in their church doctrine and structure. My study argues that the ethical shift that occurred in the southern Methodist Church in the 1840s resulted from the dual demands of southern and denominational culture, which led them to construct their own vision of masculine identity. This study uses the Methodist Church as an example of the friction caused and questions raised by the intersection of gender, religion, and ethics in a constricted, patriarchal society. ii DEDICATION To my husband, Court Carney And to my grandparents, R.A. and Juanita Rakestraw iii ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation is certainly a labor of love and required the support and encouragement of a number of people whose contributions and efforts I would like to recognize.

  • Beyond Guernica and the Guggenheim
    Beyond Guernica and the Guggenheim Beyond Art and Politics from a Comparative Perspective a Comparative from Art and Politics Beyond Guernica and the Guggenheim This book brings together experts from different fields of study, including sociology, anthropology, art history Art and Politics from a Comparative Perspective and art criticism to share their research and direct experience on the topic of art and politics. How art and politics relate with each other can be studied from numerous perspectives and standpoints. The book is structured according to three main themes: Part 1, on Valuing Art, broadly concerns the question of who, how and what value is given to art, and how this may change over time and circumstance, depending on the social and political situation and motivation of different interest groups. Part 2, on Artistic Political Engagement, reflects on another dimension of art and politics, that of how artists may be intentionally engaged with politics, either via their social and political status and/or through the kind of art they produce and how they frame it in terms of meaning. Part 3, on Exhibitions and Curating, focuses on yet another aspect of the relationship between art and politics: what gets exhibited, why, how, and with what political significance or consequence. A main focus is on the politics of art in the Basque Country, complemented by case studies and reflections from other parts of the world, both in the past and today. This book is unique by gathering a rich variety of different viewpoints and experiences, with artists, curators, art historians, sociologists and anthropologists talking to each other with sometimes quite different epistemological bases and methodological approaches.

  • Secession As a Moral Imperative: White Southerners and Evangelical Theology
    SECESSION AS A MORAL IMPERATIVE: WHITE SOUTHERNERS AND EVANGELICAL THEOLOGY Pearl J. Young A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: William L. Barney Brandon L. Bayne W. Fitzhugh Brundage Kathleen DuVal Joseph T. Glatthaar © 2018 Pearl J. Young ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Pearl J. Young: Secession as a Moral Imperative: White Southerners and Evangelical Theology (Under the direction of William L. Barney) This dissertation explores the ways in which white Southerners used evangelical theology to rationalize secession as a moral imperative. The secession of eleven states from the Union in 1860 and 1861 ripped asunder its political bond between the federal government and the individual state legislatures. Yet the rhetoric of evangelical Christianity present in the political documents of secession begs the question of how white Southerners connected a political choice with their religious sensibilities. Even if politicians appropriated religious language for their own purposes, they did so because they spoke to an audience that engaged with the world on religious terms. This dissertation eXamines five specific aspects of Southern evangelical theology as each was used in the context of secession. Evangelical Christians did not always agree on a common rationale (or even on theological matters), but the aggregate of their debates reflect the depth of the Southern sense of sectionalism and the eXtent to which religious fervor spilled into the political sphere. Firstly, Southerners viewed their region as an eXample to the world of an ideal Christian society, a testimony brought into sharper relief with secession.

Jarman's Incorporated, Printers Charlottesville, Virginia 19 4 0 Copyright, 1940 Lieut.-Col. Robert B. Shackelford, Retired. FOREWORD This book is lovingly dedicated to the memory of my father, the late Dr. Robert Baylor Shackelford (1831-1908), whose pic ture, from an old-fashioned "tintype", appears as the frontis piece, showing him mounted on his faithful old horse, "Dan". The caption under this picture, a Virginia "Country Doctor" in the 1880's, is believed to be sufficient to identify him as a typical "doctor of the old school". I desire to render especial thanks to my old friend and class mate, Dr. J. C. Bardin, now Professor of Romanic Languages at the University of Virginia, for his aid in editing the materials included in this book, and for reading the proofs for me. Also, I want to thank Mrs. Jennie T. Grayson, of Charlottes ville, Va., for her help in searching for data for me. She helped me tremendously in accumulating authentic information concern ing the Shackelford family. I also express my gratitude to Mr. Anthony R.

  • Wilkes –Smedberg Papers (1849 - 1913)
    Wilkes –Smedberg Papers (1849 - 1913) The Wilkes – Smedberg Papers is a collection of letters sent to and from John “Jack” Wilkes (1827 – 1908) and his wife, Jane “Jeanie” Renwick Smedberg Wilkes (1827 – 1913). Through family connections they were related to some of New York City’s most prominent families, including the Jeffrey, Wilkes, Auchincloss, Brevoort, Irving and many others. Their mothers were sisters. The couple grew up together and developed a close relationship when Jack joined the Navy and exchanged letters with his cousin Jane. By 1853, the couple became engaged and they married in April of 1854. By this time, Jack Wilkes became discouraged with the thought of a naval career and the possibility of leaving his new bride a widow. Prior to their wedding in 1854, Jack arranged through his father Captain Charles Wilkes to supervise the stamp mill owned by the latter in St. Catherine’s Mine which was just outside the city of Charlotte, North Carolina. The couple arrived in Charlotte in May of 1854 and made their home, first in St. Catherine’s and later in Charlotte. Jack Wilkes worked hard to make a success of the Capps Mine but later switched his attention to the Mecklenburg Flour Mill and barrel making operation. The latter was quite successful. Wilkes also purchased the Mecklenburg Iron Works. The couple raised their family and were very involved in St. Peter’s Episcopal Church where Jack Wilkes served as the vestryman throughout his life. When the Civil War broke out, the flour operations ceased and Jack sold or leased the iron works to the Confederate Navy which they used as the Confederate Naval Yard.
