  • Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies
    Early Puritanism in the Southern and Island Colonies BY BABETTE M. LEVY Preface NE of the pleasant by-products of doing research O work is the realization of how generously help has been given when it was needed. The author owes much to many people who proved their interest in this attempt to see America's past a little more clearly. The Institute of Early American History and Culture gave two grants that enabled me to devote a sabbatical leave and a summer to direct searching of colony and church records. Librarians and archivists have been cooperative beyond the call of regular duty. Not a few scholars have read the study in whole or part to give me the benefit of their knowledge and judgment. I must mention among them Professor Josephine W, Bennett of the Hunter College English Department; Miss Madge McLain, formerly of the Hunter College Classics Department; the late Dr. William W. Rockwell, Librarian Emeritus of Union Theological Seminary, whose vast scholarship and his willingness to share it will remain with all who knew him as long as they have memories; Professor Matthew Spinka of the Hartford Theological Sem- inary; and my mother, who did not allow illness to keep her from listening attentively and critically as I read to her chapter after chapter. All students who are interested 7O AMERICAN ANTIQUARIAN SOCIETY in problems concerning the early churches along the Atlantic seaboard and the occupants of their pulpits are indebted to the labors of Dr. Frederick Lewis Weis and his invaluable compendiums on the clergymen and parishes of the various colonies.

  • Chapter 16: the Civil War, 1861-1865
    The Civil War 1861–1865 Why It Matters The Civil War—a war in which Americans fought other Americans—transformed the United States. It shattered the economy of the South while contributing to the rapid economic growth of the North and the West. African Americans gained freedom when slavery was abolished, but the war left a legacy of bitterness between North and South that lasted for generations. The Impact Today Key events during this era still shape our lives today. For example: • The institution of slavery was abolished. • The war established the power of the federal government over the states. The American Republic to 1877 Video The chapter 16 video, “The Face of War,” gives insight into the realities of the Civil War. 1861 1863 • Confederate States of America formed • Emancipation Proclamation issued • Conflict at Fort Sumter, South Carolina, begins Civil War • Battle of Gettysburg 1862 • Robert E. Lee named commander Lincoln of Confederate armies 1861–1865 1861 1862 1863 1861 1863 • Charles Dickens’s Great • Discovery of Lake Victoria as Expectations published source of Nile River 1862 • Victor Emmanuel II recognized • Otto von Bismarck named • International Red Cross as king of unified Italy premier of Prussia established 458 CHAPTER 16 The Civil War Organizing Information Study Foldable Make this foldable to help you organize what you learn about the Civil War.

Above Image: Dave the Potter by Jonathan Green, featured in Gullah Spirit. ART & PHOTOGRAPHY / SOUTH CAROLINA Jonathan Green is best known for his vi- brant depictions of Gullah culture and life. For decades, his vividly colored paintings and prints have captured and preserved the daily rituals and Gullah traditions of his childhood in the Lowcountry marshes of South Carolina. While Green’s art continues to capture the same energy, color, and deep respect for his ancestors, his techniques have evolved to feature bolder brush strokes and a use of depth and texture, all guided by his matur- ing artistic vision that is more about experi- encing freedom and contentment through his art. This vision is reflected in the 179 new Gullah Spirit paintings featured in Gullah Spirit.

  • By George W. Dodge During the Civil War
    ARLINGTON NATIONAL CEMETERY'S CONFEDERATE BURIALS By George W. Dodge During the Civil War numerous Confederate prisoners were transported north through Washington, DC; those with serious wounds or illness were admitted to local hospitals. Over 500 Confederate prisoners succumbed to their wounds or died of disease while at hospitals in or around the capital during the Civil War. From 1862 to 1865, some of these soldiers were buried at the Soldiers' Home Cemetery at North Capitol Street and Harewood Road; it was a convenient burial ground for the city's hospitals. During the Civil War the Soldiers' Home Cemetery would be the burial ground for at least 128 Southern soldiers or sympathizers. 1 Total numbers are imprecise as certain soldiers were disinterred by family members. Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederacy, while serving as the U.S. Secretary of War in the 1850s, was the driving force behind the establishment of the Soldiers' Home. On May 17th and 18th, 1864, the first two Confederate soldiers were buried in the new Soldiers' Cemetery at Arlington, Virginia. About 377 - Confederates were buried in Arlington during the war. 2 (From 1864 to the early 1870's the remains of at least 241 Confederates were removed, primarily by families and state agencies of North Carolina, South Carolina and Virginia.)3 Confederate bodies were placed alongside those of their deceased foes, white Union soldiers, for burial. Black Union soldiers of the United States Colored Troops were buried separately in what is now Section 27. The burials at Arlington, home of General and Mrs. Robert E.

  • I AM JUDSON STONE by Dayton Levi Birchard
    I AM JUDSON STONE By Dayton Levi Birchard While George Washington was completing the fourth year of his first term as President of the United States; when the greatest single national political issue was states’ rights under the leadership of Thomas Jefferson as head of the Democratic party as opposed to the concept of a strong national government as conceived in the mind of Alexander Hamilton as head of the Federalist Party; when the state of Connecticut was still considered by the Yankees to be bounded by the ocean on the east and to be in breadth one hundred miles and to extend from the Atlantic to the Pacific, I was born about four miles from New Preston in Litchfield County, Connecticut on August 27, 1792. Father owned a farm there, and the house in which I was born now belongs to William Hillman. Garrad was four years old and Mary Ann was almost two when I was born. Canfield the 2nd was four years younger than I, Walker six, Amarillus nine, and Harriet twelve. Mother, Mary Platt, who was born in 1768, was within a month of her twenty-fourth birthday and Father, Canfield, was past his twenty-seventh. The living of our family was procured by tilling the fields of one of Connecticut’s boulder-strewn hillsides. Woodlands had to be held back from encroaching on the newly-cleared fields. Stone walls were piled from rounded stones. Most of our living was taken from the soil and processed by Father and Mother by hard hand labor. In our home, we were trained in accordance with the more liberal religious views of Connecticut Congregational influence, as compared with the Puritanical and Unitarian controversial (?) tenets of the Massachusetts and Bostonian influences.

  • The Southern Famine Relief Commission
    The Southern Famine Relief Commission: Feeding the South while Founding Reconciliation Siobhan Fitzpatrick Villanova University 2011 1 The Southern Famine Relief Commission (SFRC), founded in 1867, was a New York City‐based organization dedicated to relieving the suffering in the South caused by the famine. Even though the Commission was headquartered in New York City, they collected funds from all over the country, and many of its executive officers had served with the Sanitary Commission during the Civil War, including Frederick Law Olmsted.1 The funds raised were sent either directly to agents in the south or were used to purchase corn, which was then shipped south and distributed by trusted agents. By the beginning of 1868 the SFRC had completed its fundraising activities and disbanded. Even though the SFRC functioned for only a short period of time, it began the process of nationwide reconciliation through its fundraising procedures for the relief of the southern famine, under the pretense of chivalric assistance to dependent women and children. The records of the SFRC have been preserved at the New York Historical Society (NYHS) in Manhattan. One of the commission’s final acts was donating all their records, including correspondence, record books, subscription books, newspaper clippings and meeting minutes to the NYHS for preservation.2 These records, which are available on microfilm, provide invaluable insight into the immediate aftermath of the war, and the ways in which people strove to overcome the devastating divisions caused by the Civil War.3 1 Witold Rybczynski, A Clearing in the Distance: Frederick Law Olmsted and America in the 19th Century (New York: Touchstone Book, 2000), 198, 279.
