Joel i., 3. In attempting to trace the ancient history of his family the is confronted compiler early with the necessity for sifting facts from and while tradition, many traditions are interesting and fondly cherished, often plausible, as well as suggestive and helpful in re- the search, yet evidence of recorded facts is the only safe guide in order to make such a compilation of much value. As a matter of fact, however, instances occur in these pages where traditions of Revolutionary service have been clues suggesting investigation which led to their verification by the discovery of recorded facts. The name of Pringle is of great antiquity, and has been his- torically eminent in Scotland for many centuries. Alexander appears to have been the great progenitor of the family, and he is said to have been one of the promoters of the Fourth Crusade and commanded one of the divisions of the Scot- tish soldiers engaged in Palestine. Sir James Pringle was a Knight of great courage and discre- tion, and enjoyed the friendship] and favor of King Robert the Bruce; and was one of the Scottish Knights who accompanied the great Lord Douglas on the celebrated pilgrimage of the heart of Robert Bruce. In the arms of all those engaged in that celebrated pilgrimage, a winged heart has been given as a crest, and it ap- pears on some of the Pringle coats of arms. The escallop shells also show that a pilgrimage had been made to Jerusalem. The origin of the Pringles in America is as yet uncertain, al- though it is known that our progenitor in this country, William Pringle, of New Haven, Conn., in 1654, was of Scottish nationality. No attempt has been made to trace his ancestry across the water. The name of Pringle frequently appears in the Publications of the Scottish History Society; and in Vol. 50, entitled "Records of the Baron Court of Stitchill, 1655-1807,"—Edinburg, 1905, there is given the genealogy of Pringles of Stitchill, from the Pringles— of Snailholm, and Hop Pringle of Craiglatch and Newhall two the generations prior to William Hop Pringle, 1485, from whom descent follows. ix X Prindle Genealogy. These Records comprise the minutes of "The firste Court Barron holden at Stitchell," beginning January 8, l655, "be the Right worthy Walter Pringle of Greenkow. In the name of and haveing full power and commission fra the Right worthy Robert Pringle of Stitchill, Barroun and heretable proprietor of the Lands, Paro- chin, and Barrony of Stitchill/' and extending to November 21, 1807. This Baron Court was that of the village, barony and parish of Stitchill in Roxburgshire, three miles north of Kelso on tlie river Tweed. Walter Pringle of Greenkow was the second son of Robert the first laird of Stitchill. The name of Pringle is found with the Kers, Elliotts, Scotts and others, all ancient and renowned Border names, who were in full sympathy with the principles of the Covenant, and exerted un- dying influence on those living upon their estates. The lairds of Stitchill were Covenanters and the head of the family (in 1732) originated the secession in the parish from the Church of Scotland. There was a "Prindle Hill" near Scrooby, in Nottingham, Eng- land, the birth-place of Rev. John Davenport, the founder of the New Haven Colony in 1636, and which suggests that some of the name lived in that vicinity. Scrooby Manor was near to the borders, both of Lincolnshire and Yorkshire, though itself in the County of Nottingham. It was also an ancient possession and occasional residence of the Arch- bishop of York, and located a little south of Bawtry, a market and post town situated on the boundary line between Nottinghamshire and Yorkshire. Northumberland is still the home of Pringle families, as also the southeastern counties of Scotland, just over the border from Northumberland, where the Pringles of Yair and Whytbank were neighbors and distant kinsfolk of Sir Walter Scott. There are many graves of Pringles in Melrose Abbey and church-yard, with quaint inscriptions and tablets bearing dates from February 28, 1585, to January 13, 1899, the oldest of which is on an effigy lying on the floor of No. 5 chapel, and reads as follows: Heir Leis ane Honourabil Man Andro Pringil Feuar of Galloschiels Quha Decesit ye 28 OF Februare An. Dom. 1585. The word Feuar is very common over all parts of Scotland and elsewhere, and means a person having a long lease of a piece of Foreword. XI from another ground superior at a nominal rent. These leases vary from 99 years up to say 200 and 300 years, and many houses are built all over the country on ground taken in such a way. There are also old inscriptions of several Alexander Pringles, this name having been transmitted through several generations; and two or three of John Pringle, the earliest having died April 24, 1675, aged 72. The earliest record so far found of Prindles in America is of John, whose name appears as an "after planter" in Milford, Conn., in 1645; and nothing further has yet been found until the name of William appears in the New Haven Colonial Records, in 1653-4. And in order to a better understanding of the matter it is desirable to make a brief reference to some of the events leading up to the settlement of this Colony, and the appearance of William, whom we find taking the oath of fidelity to the New Haven Jurisdiction in 1654. The early settlers brought with them a high regard for church and town records, and so noted down with much care and minute- ness the current facts connected with the family and business life. Some of these old records may seem of little moment, and even trivial, to the ordinary reader, but to the historian and genealogist they are often found to be of great value. The history of the New Haven Colony begins as early as l635, when the first steps were taken in the organization of the Daven- port and Eaton Company, in England and Holland. The Rev. John Davenport, as pastor of the Church in Coleman Street, Lon- don, was made to feel the persecuting hand of Archbishop Laud, and to escape which he sought refuge for a time in Holland. The- ophilus Eaton, the other founder of this Colony, was a London mer- chant of means and influence, and is said to have been a member fourth of the former's congregation. This company was the colony which had set out for New England, and is mentioned as being better equipped as to men and means than any of its predecessors. On arrival at Boston they were urged to join the Massachusetts from settlers Bay Colony. But glowing accounts had reached them who had "swarmed" from the Massachusetts Bay Colony, and while a suitable wintering in Boston some of their number had sought for location in Connecticut. Fearing that Archbishop Laud might trouble the Massachusetts Bay Colony if they remained with it, xii Prindle Genealogy. and having their own ideas about the management of civil and re- ligious affairs^ they were moved to decline the invitation as a colony, though doubtless some individuals may have remained, and others of the Bay Colony joined the newer enterprise.

Continuing Education and Development, Inc. 22 Stonewall Court Woodcliff Lake, NJ 07677 P: (877) 322-5800 [email protected] The Evolution of the U.S. Automotive Industry Copyright 2013 Robert Tata, B.M.S.E., P.E. All Rights Reserved Introduction The author, a licensed Professional Engineer, has also been employed in an engineering capacity by all “Big Three” automakers; GM, Ford, & Chrysler. Here he has sought to investigate the series of events that made Detroit, Michigan the automotive capital of the world. Detroit, Michigan is a place, off the beaten path, in an isolated glove-shape piece of land thrust up between two lakes, with sometimes very inclement weather. Ohio and Indiana, who were also active in the creation of the auto industry in the U.S., are in the same general area of the country as Michigan and share the same climate. How did the industry get its start in this three-state area. One would think that other parts of the country would be more conducive to the formation of such an important part of the history of this nation. Michigan, Ohio, and Indiana were not members of the original 13 states and therefore have to be considered less developed territories than the original thirteen states around the turn of the 19th century when the American gasoline powered automobile was invented. Read how the author has searched for the answers to these somewhat perplexing questions surrounding why Detroit became “The Motor City”.

BY J. W. SCOTT. SEOOND EDITION (RRVllED\ 1876. GREAllER llOlEDO: lllHIE CllllY llN lllHIE WORlD INTRODUCTION By choosing the name "Toledo," the founders of the city in 1837 seemed interested in promoting it as a place with an international focus. It is uncertain why "Toledo" was selected as the name for the new entity. At the time, all things Spanish were in vogue, and the name may have been a way to not only honor Toledo, Spain, but also as a way to portray the new Toledo as fashionable, trendy, and perhaps exotic. It was not only its name that seemed to predict the city's global focus. In 1868, one of its early land investors, Jesup W. Scott, published a pamphlet promoting Toledo titled ''A Presentation of Causes Tending to Fix the Position of the Future Great City of the World in the Central Plain of North America." In the pamphlet, Scott laid out his theory that since ancient times, the world's economic center had been moving westward, and it would only be a matter of time before the next great commercial center would be located in the interior of the United States.

  • Northwest Ohio Quarterly Volume 36 Issue 4
    Northwest Ohio Quarterly Volume 36 Issue 4 The W itlys-Overland Strike, 1919 (Part I) By DAVID A. McMuRRAY 1. BACKGROUND The purpose of this article is to study the labor conflict in Toledo at the W illys Overland Company in 1919. In so doing, we also have to understand the whole labor situation in the United States at that time. Labor had come a long way and du ring the first world wa r had achiev. ed much, but as the war ended and peace began, a reaction had set in. Since 1910 the American Federation of Labor had betn steadily in· creasing its membership. From 1914 to 1920 the membership of the American Federation of Labor incr ~d from 2,020,000 to 4,079,000.1 The demand for labor during the war had strengthened the workers' case and had forced a general increase in wages. It thus provided for great gains in union membership. Owing to the support they had given the Democratic party in the Presidential campaigns in 1912 and 1916, the unions could claim return favors.2 With increased membership and greater financial strength, labor was ready in 1919·1920 to push its program agg resively and eve r fa r· ther. In 1919. the American Federation of Labor at the annual con· vention proposed a progressive reconstruction plan. It called for demo· cracy in industry, abolition of unemployment, higher wages, shorter hours, e<lual pay for women for e<J.ual work, abolition of child labor, the right of public employees to organize and bargain collectively, limita· tion on the power of the courts, government ownership of publ ic utili· ties, and many more points that ran in a similar vein.' However, the employers did not share the unions' progressive thoughts.
