  • Patrick Henry
    LIBERTY UNIVERSITY PATRICK HENRY: THE SIGNIFICANCE OF HARMONIZED RELIGIOUS TENSIONS A THESIS SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE HISTORY DEPARTMENT IN CANDIDACY FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF ARTS IN HISTORY BY KATIE MARGUERITE KITCHENS LYNCHBURG, VIRGINIA APRIL 1, 2010 Patrick Henry: The Significance of Harmonized Religious Tensions By Katie Marguerite Kitchens, MA Liberty University, 2010 SUPERVISOR: Samuel Smith This study explores the complex religious influences shaping Patrick Henry’s belief system. It is common knowledge that he was an Anglican, yet friendly and cooperative with Virginia Presbyterians. However, historians have yet to go beyond those general categories to the specific strains of Presbyterianism and Anglicanism which Henry uniquely harmonized into a unified belief system. Henry displayed a moderate, Latitudinarian, type of Anglicanism. Unlike many other Founders, his experiences with a specific strain of Presbyterianism confirmed and cooperated with these Anglican commitments. His Presbyterian influences could also be described as moderate, and latitudinarian in a more general sense. These religious strains worked to build a distinct religious outlook characterized by a respect for legitimate authority, whether civil, social, or religious. This study goes further to show the relevance of this distinct religious outlook for understanding Henry’s political stances. Henry’s sometimes seemingly erratic political principles cannot be understood in isolation from the wider context of his religious background. Uniquely harmonized

  • The Notebook of Bass Otis, Philadelphia Portrait Painter
    The Notebook of Bass Otis, Philadelphia Portrait Painter THOMAS KNOLES INTRODUCTION N 1931, Charles H. Taylor, Jr., gave the American Antiquarian Society a small volume containing notes and sketches made I by Bass Otis (1784-1 S6i).' Taylor, an avid collector of Amer- ican engravings and lithographs who gave thousands of prints to the Society, was likely most interested in Otis as the man generally credited with producing the first lithographs made in America. But to think of Otis primarily in such terms may lead one to under- estimate his scope and productivity as an artist, for Otis worked in a wide variety of media and painted a large number of portraits in the course of a significant career which spanned the period between 1812 and 1861. The small notebook at the Society contains a varied assortment of material with dated entries ranging from 1815 to [H54. It includes scattered names and addresses, notes on a variety of sub- jects, newspaper clippings, sketches for portraits, and even pages on which Otis wiped off his paint brush. However, Otis also used the notebook as an account book, recording there the business side of his life as an artist. These accounts are a uniquely important source of information about Otis's work. Because Otis was a prohfic painter who left many of his works unsigned, his accounts have been I. The notebook is in the Manuscripts Department, American Andquarian Society.

  • William Birch: His Philadelphia Views Copyright, 1949, by Martin P
    I Hi SB u; >. O SUMMER HOURS THE SOCIETY wishes to inform its members, other institu- tions of learning, and researchers of its summer schedule. From Sunday, June 12, through Sunday, September 18, the Society will be open from nine until four, Monday through Friday. From Friday, August 5 (4 P.M.), to Wednesday, September 7 (9 A.M.), the building will be closed. THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY William Birch: His Philadelphia Views Copyright, 1949, by Martin P. Snyder N 1698 Gabriel Thomas, writing for Europeans one of the first accounts of Philadelphia, predicted optimistically that "in a very short space of time she will, in all probability, make a fine I 1 Figure in the World, and be a most Celebrated Emporeum." One hundred years later, a volume of engraved plates was published there which demonstrated to the world that his prophecy had been fulfilled. This work, The City of Philadelphia, in the State of Pennsylvania North America; as it appeared in the Year 1800, was the idea and the product of William Russell Birch, who had been born in England in 1755 and had come to Philadelphia in 1794. An artist by profes- sion, he was celebrated in the painting of miniatures in enamel, an art then very popular in the mother country. At the height of his powers and possessed of an established reputation, he was in the frame of mind for a new venture.2 1 Gabriel Thomas, An Historical and Geographical Account of the Province and Country of Pensilvania; and of West-New-Jersey in America (London, 1698), 37.

Monarch Printing Company Council Bluffs, Iowa Copyright, 1925, by EDWIN W. BURCH A BURCH BOOK EDWIN W. BURCH "Might I but know thee by thy hoitsehold badge." TO MY FATHER \Vhose kindly interest in his kinsfolk aEd whose remarkable memory of ·;he names and events of a long lifetime inspired its compilation, THIS VOL­ L; ME IS LOVINGLY DEDICATED PREFACE A search of several large historical libraries has failed to dis­ close any general Burch Family History, and the one book of the kind to be found in most of the libraries contains but 14 pages. Having found no published record of any part of the family to which I belong, save the common knowledge of the emigrant ancestor, Thomas Birch, from whom we doubtless all descend, I determined early in 1915 to prepare such a record, and, eventually, to publish it and thus make permanent and available for others of the present and future generations, all the data that I could gather. The line here given is authentic back to the emigrant. ancestor but aside from the one in each generation from whom we descend, it does not include· the record of the brothers or sisters or other child­ ren of such ancestor, until we come down to Jonathan Burtch of the sixth generation in America, and his good wife, Sarah (Sally) Hos­ ford, both of whom were native of Wells, Vermont, in which village their marriage was solemnized in the year of our Lord, 1786.

  • The 1969 Research Conference at Middletown and Harrisburg
    THE 1969 RESEARCH CONFERENCE AT MIDDLETOWN AND HARRISBURG By GAIL M. GIBSON THE Pennsylvania Historical Association, in cooperation with the Pennsylvania Historical and Museum Commission, spon- sored the fourth annual Research Conference on Pennsylvania history during the weekend of May 2 and 3, 1969. The Friday afternoon session was held at the Capitol Campus of Penn State University in Middletown, and featured a discussion of twentieth- century governors' papers. The meetings on Saturday took place at the William Penn Memorial Museum and Archives Building in Harrisburg; problems and source material in the study of Negro history were examined in the morning, and Pennsylvanians in need of biographical attention were discussed in the afternoon. Dr. William W. Hummel of Albright College served as general chairman of the conference. Dr. S. K. Stevens, executive director of the Pennsylvania His- torical and Museum Commission, presided at Friday afternoon's opening session, "Pennsylvania in the Twentieth Century: Papers of the Governors." Dr. Stevens remarked that interest in recent history had been encouraged by participants in the New Deal, who wrote books of their experiences, and who left recorded memoirs. This caused a modification of the then-prevailing view that history could be written only of events which occurred before 1900, and of people who were no longer living. In accord with this modified viewpoint, the Commission has undertaken a pro- gram of collecting recent governors' papers, and papers of other twentieth-century figures as well. The papers of John Phillips, noted conservationist, for example, are among the latest acquisi- tions of the State Archives.

The Puzzling Origin of the Acquaintance between Charlotte Lennox and Thomas Birch Abstract Scholars have puzzled over the origin of the relationship between Charlotte Lennox and Thomas Birch. That the two shared a cordial professional relationship in 1759 is not surprising, but it is unclear how and when Birch obtained the poem "The Dream, an ode by Miss Ramsey of 15" (ca. 1744-45) for his manuscript collection. Possibly Edward Cave, publisher of The Gentleman’s Magazine, or other professional associates such as Samuel Johnson or Samuel Richardson supplied it.
