A Genealogical History Compiled by Norma Todd Cansler B & H Printing AR:MSTRONGS OF THE CATAHBA a genealogical history Compiled by Norma Todd Cansler B & H Printing and Letter Service Dallas 1969 Copyright, 1969, by Norma Todd Cansler Printed in the United States All Rights Reserved FOREHORD This compilation, incomplete as it is, assembles the largest collective body of information to be published to date on descendants of the Armstrong family of the Catawba Creek branch of the James River area in Colonial Virginia. It is hoped that others will continue the research in depth, adding to knowledge of the pioneer family as well as completing some of the lines. The volume addresses itself not only to descendants but to persons of other lines engaged in genealogical search. It seeks to record for present and future generations a collection of family letters, Bible records, newspaper clippings, court records of deeds, wills and marriages, and cemetery inscriptions. In some cases it will provide a glimpse of community life to those interested in the history of the particular localities. These are the facts as we have been able to ascertain them. How little they convey of the lives of those who have gone on before us. I am grateful to dozens of descendants who have shared information. In parti­ cular I 1Jould express appreciation to Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth B. McAfee, Evanston, Illinois, for making available to me the unpublished genealogical journal of Rev. Samuel L. JvicAfee, D. D. (1841-1917-+). Mrs. J. H. Langford, Harrodsburg, Kentucky, who is descended from three of the children of John and Priscilla Armstrong, was very helpful in providing information on those branches. The letters dated 1842 to 1866 which were loaned by Mrs. L. I. Cansler, Sr., Fort Horth, Texas, uere a valuable source. Other major contributors were Nrs. C.H. Clarke, Knox City, Texas; Mrs. S. E.

Courthouses I have searched in person are: Hashington, Greene and Knox Counties, Tennessee; Austin, Bastrop, Cass, Fayette and Fort Bend Counties, Texas; Jackson County, Alabama; and Franklin and Mercer Counties, Kentucky. Also I visited the General Land Office of Texas. For permission to reprint the drawing of the Armstrong fort at Bridgeport, Kentucky, I am indebted to the Kentucky Historical Society. Finally, to my husband, Lowell, who has shared the pleasure of discoveries and contributed to the research where possible, my especial thanks. This study has been conducted as a hobby over the last four years, and 1,1e look forward now to pursuing other interests.

Armstrong 178-95 Lewis Alexander Armstrong 196 Fearless Allison Armstrong 203 CHAPTER 1 - ORIGIN OF THE CLAN The name Armstrong is said to have originated when it was bestowed by an ancient king of Scotland upon his armour bearer, Siward Fairburn, as a reward for setting the king upon another horse when his was killed in battle. For this service (performed by grasping the sovereign's leg and so lifting him), the king granted Fairburn lands on the Border and assigned him the surname Armstrong and a cr'est--"an armed hand and arm, in the hand a leg and foot in armour, couped at the thigh, all proper. 11 1 Other crests have been recorded for various branches of the family at later dates. The family motto, "Invictus Maneo, 11 means "I remain unvanquished." "Siward the Strong" was of Danish extraction.2 Son of Beorn and grandson of Ursus (Beorn),3 he was in the course of his life closely related to the royalty of Denmark, England and Scotland. Thirty-two generations later his descendants are scattered in several nations and include England's presently reigning head of state--Queen Elizabeth. A chart of descent follows. He can assu..'ne that the incident in the opening paragraph occurred on an expedition from England in the late tenth or early eleventh century. Recorded incidents in the life of Siward make it certain that he spent at least twenty years in England, and he most likely had been there since early manhood, or was born there. He died "an old man" in 1055, and even if he were eighty (sixty is more plausible), it is not likely he would have been engaged in a battle before 995. Kenneth II was King of Scotland at that time, and successive rulers were Malcolm II (1005-34), Duncan I (1034-40) and 11acbeth (1040-57). The "ancient king" would seem to be one of those mentioned. In examining the life of Siward, the first of the name of Armstrong, let us now review the flow of the Scandinavians into England and the growth of Christianity within its borders--two circumstances which would help to shape the world of Siward. Uhen the Scandinavians (from Denmark, Norway and Sweden) began to attack and ravage England near the end of the eighth century, they were heathen and delighted in destroying churches and monasteries and burning villages. Coming across the North Sea in boats carrying thirty or forty men each, for the first fifty years they came in the spring as independent bands of adventurers and returned before cold weather with their loot. After the middle of the ninth century, some of them began to pass the winter in Britain, and the attacks gradually gave way to settlement. About 980 a new series of attacks began, under the leadership of Olaf of Norway and later Sweyn of Denmark uith the objective of winning the English crown. Beginning in 991, the English Ethelred attempted to buy peace with silver payments, which brought the northmen in greater numbers. The country's resistance weakened until in 1017 a Dane, Cnut, son of Sweyn, became king. The Danes, traditionally believed to have come from Sweden, were probably established in Denmark shortly before the end of the fifth century. A hundred years later the first seeds of Christianity were sowed in England (597) when Augustine was sent to England with a body of monks as missionaries; all England was Christian by the end of the seventh century. The Scandinavians -1- were gradually Christianized by the population among whom they settled. They brought an increase in trade to England and, by uprooting the ancient kingdoms (England had about twelve at 600), played a decisive part in the creation of the English monarchy.4 Siward married second a descendant of the royal family of the old kingdom of Northumbria--Aelfled, daughter of Ealdred, Earl of Northumberland. His cousin Ulf, son of his father's brother Thorgils "Sprakaleg," married Estrith, a sister of Cnut who was King of England 1016-.35, King of Denmark 1018-35 and King of Norway 1030-35. One authority says that Siward was agpointed Earl of Northumberland by Cnut in 1035 when Ealdred was assassinated; another says that Ealdred was assassinated in 1038 and Siward becaie earl in 1041 upon the death of Ealdred's son who had succeeded him as earl. The five great earldoms of England had been formulated by King Cnut, the first of four Danish kings.7 The three largest earldoms covered most of England and were headed in the mid-eleventh century by Godwine of Hessex, Leofric of Mercia and Siward of Northumberland. The area covered by Northumberland stretched from the river Humber north to the Scottish border.

  • Philip De Sayton's Grandfather Fought with William the Conqueror At
    Philip de Sayton’s grandfather fought with William the Conqueror at Hastings in 1066. Winton was built by the Setons following a grant of land by David I to Phillip de Sayton in 1150. Phillip’s grandson married the sister of King Robert “The Bruce” of Scotland. In the sixteenth century, Henry VIII had Winton burnt in an effort to impress Mary Queen of Scots, and Mary Seton was later her Lady-in-Waiting. The Seton’s tenure lasted until 1715 when they backed the Jacobites and the Earl of Winton was taken to the Tower of London. The Earl’s capture ended an era when Kings were entertained and master craftsmen were engaged fresh from Edinburgh Castle to embellish Winton House in the style of the Scottish Renaissance. In the absence of the Earl but in his name, Winton was requisitioned by Bonnie Prince Charlie in 1745 when his rebel army camped on Winton Estate. The Hamilton Nisbets, who bought the House and Estate, linked it to one of the greatest inheritances of the 18th and 19th centuries. The furnishings came from all over Europe and the Turkish Empire and the impressive estates covered some of the country's best farmland. Golf was not just a pastime but was carried out on estate land, which, at that time, included Muirfield and Gullane Links. For over a century, Winton has hosted musical evenings and private functions; more recently it has successfully been used for corporate dinners and lunches, conferences, product launches and weddings, using the main rooms of the House.

  • Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland in August 14-26, 2014: Journal of Lyle Dunbar
    Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland in August 14-26, 2014: Journal of Lyle Dunbar Introduction The Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland from August 14-26, 2014, was organized for Clan Dunbar members with the primary objective to visit sites associated with the Dunbar family history in Scotland. This Clan Dunbar 2014 Tour of Scotland focused on Dunbar family history at sites in southeast Scotland around Dunbar town and Dunbar Castle, and in the northern highlands and Moray. Lyle Dunbar, a Clan Dunbar member from San Diego, CA, participated in both the 2014 tour, as well as a previous Clan Dunbar 2009 Tour of Scotland, which focused on the Dunbar family history in the southern border regions of Scotland, the northern border regions of England, the Isle of Mann, and the areas in southeast Scotland around the town of Dunbar and Dunbar Castle. The research from the 2009 trip was included in Lyle Dunbar’s book entitled House of Dunbar- The Rise and Fall of a Scottish Noble Family, Part I-The Earls of Dunbar, recently published in May, 2014. Part I documented the early Dunbar family history associated with the Earls of Dunbar from the founding of the earldom in 1072, through the forfeiture of the earldom forced by King James I of Scotland in 1435. Lyle Dunbar is in the process of completing a second installment of the book entitled House of Dunbar- The Rise and Fall of a Scottish Noble Family, Part II- After the Fall, which will document the history of the Dunbar family in Scotland after the fall of the earldom of Dunbar in 1435, through the mid-1700s, when many Scots, including his ancestors, left Scotland for America.

Building on previous theories of banter, I suggest that the composite nature of the phenomenon can usefully be analysed within an interactional pragmatic model, such as that proposed by Lecercle (1999). Using this model to analyse various episodes of Pointless, I seek to demonstrate that banter is created within a dynamic interpersonal process.
