Elmer and Verna in 1971 at their 50th wedding anniversary Elmer and Verna about the time they were married in 1921 The PHILIP KARNS, SR. and PETER MEARKLE Families including Allied Families of Virginia and Pennsylvania 6 THE AUTHORS Forrest and Jean (Karns) Ladd My mother, Verna (Dawson) Karns, had kept a record of the NAME, BIRTH, and DEATH of each of her siblings’ families, as well as the same information on my father's siblings. For some time before her death in 1978, she was not able to work with her records, so I tried to continue what she had started. It became a challenge to continue on with an ANCESTRAL SEARCH as well as DESCENDANCY records. It was about that time that computer programs were being developed for both research and the writing of books. Immediately after I retired in 1994, I started working with not only my side of the family, but also my husband's families. So, since that time we have worked with each of our grandparent lines--making a total of 8 family histories. I did much of the research, but without the computer technology to keep my computer "healthy" and the work my husband has done in retouching, resizing of pictures, and developing many family websites, a lot of our work would not have been available. He made major contributions to this set of volumes. I honor him and thank him today !

    49 UP A Film by Michael Apted 135 minutes, color & b/w, 2005, UK First Run Features 630 Ninth Avenue, Suite 1213 New York, NY 10036 (212) 243-0600/Fax (212) 989-7649 email: [email protected] www.firstrunfeatures.com SYNOPSIS 49 Up , the latest installment of Granada’s landmark documentary series, revisits the group of people whose lives have been documented since they were seven, to see where they are now as they approach their half century. The original Seven Up was broadcast in 1964 as a one-off World in Action Special featuring children who were selected from different backgrounds and social spheres to talk about their hopes and dreams for the future. As members of the generation who would be running the country by the year 2000, what did they think they would become? Inspired by World in Action founder Tim Hewat’s passionate interest in both the Jesuit saying “Give me the child until he is seven and I will show you the man” and the rigid class system of 1960s Britain, Seven Up set out to discover whether or not the children’s lives were pre-determined by their backgrounds. The result was ground-breaking television – the very first example of a program recording real people living real lives – and the follow-up films have won an array of awards. Director Michael Apted, who has since moved to Hollywood to direct films including Gorky Park , The Coal Miner’s Daughter , The World Is Not Enough and Gorillas in the Mist , has returned every seven years to chart the children’s progress through life.

  • American Child Bride
    University of North Carolina Press American Child Bride A History of Minors and Marriage in the United States Nicholas L. Syrett The University of North Carolina Press Chapel Hill Copyrighted Material • Further Distribution Prohibited University of North Carolina Press Introduction When Susie King Taylor published her 1902 memoir, Reminiscences of My Life in Camp, narrating the story of her escape from slavery and subsequent service as a nurse during the Civil War, the book made little mention of her 1862 marriage. Susie Baker, as she was then called, had been fourteen when she wed Edward King, a soldier in the unit alongside which she served on Saint Simon’s Island, Georgia, then occupied by Union forces. Taylor’s age readers must intuit for themselves by reading forward from the year of her birth, provided at the begin- ning of the book. And perhaps it is unsurprising that Taylor does not focus on her marriage or her age at the time of that marriage; the autobiography’s chief pur- pose was to highlight the service of African Americans at a time when many were celebrating memories of the Civil War and erasing the history of slavery (and of black Union soldiers). Her marriage was incidental to this story. But it is also the case that marrying at the age of fourteen was not at all uncommon for a newly freed girl like Susie Baker, or indeed for many others throughout the nation in the middle of the nineteenth century. Susie King Taylor may well have glossed over her youthful marriage because it simply was not noteworthy in 1862 or in 1902.1 By contrast, when country star Loretta Lynn published her autobiogra- phy, Coalminer’s Daughter, in 1976, the story of her marriage at thirteen was one of the book’s central episodes, as it was in the narrative of her life in country music.

  • Life in the New Homesteads Stan Nadel
    Life in the New Homesteads—Stan Nadel Life in the New Homesteads Stan Nadel Colonial America German migration to North America is generally treated as having begun with the 1683 arrival in Pennsylvania of 13 families from Krefeld on the lower Rhine, even though most of them were of Dutch origin. But Germans were in fact the largest group of migrants to the Dutch colony of New Netherlands before the English conquered it in 1661 and long preceded the Krefield migrants. Given the Frankfurt am Main Heimat of wealthy merchant Jacob Leisler who governed New York briefly from 1689-91,1 it is likely that some less well-known Germans had their origins in the nearby Bavarian Palatinate. If so, these first “Bavarians” in America were most likely townspeople in New Amsterdam and they blended into the town’s diverse population so completely that we can’t say much about their lives beyond generalizations that could apply to everyone in New Amsterdam. Individuals and small groups of migrants may have gone from the Palatinate to British North America in small numbers in the late 17th and early 18th centuries, but the first group that shows up in the historical record consisted of Lutheran Pfarrer Josuah Harrsch and about 55 followers who enlisted the help of Queen Anne of England in their migration to the Hudson Valley of New York in 1708.2 Harrsch, writing under the name Kochertal had promoted emigration to Carolina, but it was his success in getting the Queen to pay their passage that mobilized thirteen thousand or more Palatines to try to follow him to North America during and after the famine of 1709.

  • Michael Apted FIRST RUN FEATURES
    A film by Michael Apted Michael Apted, 144 minutes, English, Digital (DCP, BluRay), 1:78, Stereo, 2012, Documentary, Unrated FIRST RUN FEATURES The Film Center Building 630 Ninth Ave. #1213 New York, NY 10036 (212) 243-0600 / Fax (212) 989-7649 Website: www.firstrunfeatures.com Email: [email protected] http://www.firstrunfeatures.com/56up Synopsis Offering an extraordinary look at the unfolding of lives, The UP Series has been called “an inspired, almost noble use of the film medium” by renowned film critic Roger Ebert. In 1964, acclaimed filmmaker Michael Apted began his career as a researcher on a new experimental series for Granada TV called Seven UP, which explored the Jesuit maxim “Give me the child until he is seven and I will give you the man.” The original concept was to interview 14 children from diverse socio-economic backgrounds from all over England, to see whether a class system was in place. By asking the children about their lives and their dreams for the future, differences in attitudes and opportunity were witnessed. For almost a half century, Apted has interviewed the original group every seven years, examining the progression of their lives. Now they are 56. From cab driver Tony, to schoolmates Jackie, Lynn and Susan and the iconoclast Neil, the present age brings more life-changing decisions and surprising developments. From success and disappointment, marriage and childbirth, to poverty and illness, nearly every facet of life is discussed with the group, as they assess whether their lives have ultimately been ruled by circumstance or self-determination. Filmmaker Bio Michael Apted is of one of the most prolific directors of his generation.

    R A A J A S E E JEWELERS IN INDIA BY By Addison Lewis, Becca Lancaster, Derek Lao, Josefina Jaramillo, and Mariam Al Essa EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This marketing plan offers an overview of how Kay Jewelers, the American diamond jewelry brand, will be entering in the Indian market as a sub brand called Raajasee- meaning ‘royalty’ in Hindu- ​ as research has shown the preference of Indians to buy Indian-made jewelry. Raajasee will be targeting ​ Indian women from upper class families, ages 18 – 30, who wish to get married. The brand will specialize in high quality, diamond bridal jewelry typically worn in Indian weddings. Raajasee will position itself as ​ the highest quality diamond jewelry brand available for wedding pieces, with the customer service and ongoing warranties that make the customer feel as though they are royal in every aspect but title. The superior customer service and quality of Raajasee’s materials will allow the brand to price itself with ​ ​ value-based pricing, 5% higher than that of its comparable competitors. Raajasee will employ infamous ​ ​ Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor to promote the brand, as well as running print and television ads featuring her in staple brand pieces such as the “Praacheen” necklace. These decisions, made on behalf of ​ Raajasee, have been based off of five interviews with local Indians within and outside our target market, ​ as well as collective secondary research. 1 TABLE OF CONTENTS Section 1 - Current Market Environment ……………………………………………………..3 Culture……………………………………………………………………………………..3 Economy.………………………………………………………………………………….4
