In 1752, England switched to the Gregorian calendar (the one we use today). The Julian calendar changed the year on March 25, not on January 1. Therefore some dates are written like February 26, 1610/11 to indicate it was still 1610 on the Julian calendar, but the year was actually 1611 by our modern Gregorian calendar. 3 Compiled by Stanley Frazer Rose, 2016 New Jersey Ancestors Byram, Condit, Lindsley Sadie Warner Frazer’s Maternal Northern Ancestors COLONY Native American Initial Name Year Settled or Name Incorporated Virginia 1607 Plymouth Colony 1620 Braintree Mt.

  • History of the College
    History of the College A liberal arts education in colonial America was a privilege enjoyed by few individuals. The nine colleges that existed pri- or to the American Revolution did not mean to be popular institutions. But the Revolution altered this state of affairs, and as the floodgates opened to the rising democratic tide, numerous colleges and universities were chartered in the young republic. The westward movement, growing populations, increasing wealth, state loyalties, and denominational rivalries all played a part in the early expansion of American higher education. Perhaps as many as 100 colleges tried and failed before the Civil War. Allegheny, founded in 1815, is one of the hardy survivors that testifies daily to the pioneer determination and vision of higher education in America.

Allegheny is situated in Meadville, Pennsylvania, which was founded in Despite such generous gifts, however, the first years were difficult 1788 in the French Creek Valley, astride the route traversed by George ones.

ByV I a y of Introduction WHILE I w as living in the home of that sturdy Puritan governor, William Leete, — my native town of Guil ford, — the idea suggested itself to me that inasmuch as a collection of the biographies of the chief executives of Connecticut had never been made, the work would afford an interesting and agreeable undertaking. This was in the year 1895. 1 began the task, but before it had far progressed it offered what seemed to me insurmountable obstacles, so that for a time the collection of data concerning the early rulers of the state was entirely abandoned. A few years later the work was again resumed and carried to completion. The manuscript was requested by a magazine editor for publication and appeared serially in " The Connecticut Magazine." To R ev. Samuel Hart, D.D., president of the Connecticut Historical Society, I express my gratitude for his assistance in deciding some matters which were subject to controversy.

  • Let Us Give Them Something to Play With”: the Preservation of the Hermitage by the Ladies’ Hermitage Association
    “LET US GIVE THEM SOMETHING TO PLAY WITH”: THE PRESERVATION OF THE HERMITAGE BY THE LADIES’ HERMITAGE ASSOCIATION by Danielle M. Ullrich A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School at Middle Tennessee State University in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts in History with an Emphasis in Public History Murfreesboro, TN May 2015 Thesis Committee: Dr. Mary Hoffschwelle, Chair Dr. Rebecca Conard ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS My parents, Dennis and Michelle Ullrich, instilled in me a respect for history at an early age and it is because of them that I am here today, writing about what I love. However, I would also not have made it through without the prayers and support of my brother, Ron, and my grandmother, Carol, who have reminded me even though I grow tired and weary, those who hope in the Lord will find new strength. Besides my family, I want to thank my thesis committee members, Dr. Mary Hoffschwelle and Dr. Rebecca Conard. Dr. Hoffschwelle, your wealth of knowledge on Tennessee history and your editing expertise has been a great help completing my thesis. Also, Dr. Conard, your support throughout my academic career at MTSU has helped guide me towards a career in Public History. Special thanks to Marsha Mullin of Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage, for reading a draft of my thesis and giving me feedback. And last, but certainly not least, to all the Hermitage interpreters who encouraged me with their questions and with their curiosity. ii ABSTRACT Since 1889, Andrew Jackson’s Hermitage has been open to the public as a museum thanks to the work of the Ladies’ Hermitage Association.

  • Collections of the Original Library of Allegheny College, 1819-1823
    Observations on the Winthrop, Bentley Thomas and 'Ex Dono' Collections of the Original Library of Allegheny College, 1819-1823, First listed by President Timothy Alden in Catalogus Bibliothecae Collegii Alleghaniensis, E Typis Thomae Atkinson Soc. apud Meadville. 1823. Edwin Wolf, 2nd Mr. Edwin Wolf, 2nd, Librarian of The Library Company of Philadelphia, was commissioned by Allegheny College to make a survey of the Original Library, March 6-16, 1962. Notes: Through his observations, Mr. Wolf uses the original spelling of the College's name: Alleghany. This document is a typed transcript of Mr. Wolf’s original work. Permission to publish this document has been granted by the Library Company of Philadelphia. The library of Alleghany as it existed when Timothy Alden made his catalogue of it in 1823 has importance today for several reasons: 1) it was the most scholarly library in the west, which was the result of its major component parts; 2) the component parts were distinguished in their day: the Bentley collection, strong in the classics, moderately strong in the church fathers and representative in theology and linguistics; the Winthrop collection, amazingly strong in linguistics and in voyages and travels, representative in the classics and, because of the influence of John Winthrop, important in the sciences; the Thomas collection, a typical early 19th- century selection of books; 3) the early and interesting provenance of many of the volumes throw light upon an earlier New England culture; 4) there is a present day scholarly interest in individual titles which are of great rarity and/or have considerable value.

The collection consists largely of diaries, letters, financial records, sketches, wills, and other documents. Individuals represented include Philip and Margaret Lawrence Lindsley, Adrian Van Sinderen Lindsley, John Berrien and Sallie McGavock Lindsley, William Walker, Luke and Percie Warner Lea, Louise Grundy Lindsley, Annie Lindsley Warden, and Margaret Lindsley Warden, the donor of these papers. Miss Warden had donated two diaries and brought other material for copying as early as the 1960s; the remaining papers were brought to the Tennessee State Library and Archives shortly before her death in 2007. The collection, first processed in 1969, was reprocessed in order to incorporate the new material, eliminate duplicates, and provide a more logical order. Other papers relating to this family, and including 18 letters written by John Berrien Lindsley, may be found in the Margaret (Warner) White (1889-1981) Papers, ca. 1777-1962 (VIII-F3, microfilm #1239).
