Unfortunately, not much is known about the piece, which may have belonged to Miss Dabney’s great grandmother, Elvira McClelland Henry, the wife of Patrick Henry’s young- est son, John. The wooden box measures just over 10 inches wide and stands 4 ½ inches tall, with a mirror on the inside of the gold adorned, hinged lid. A few small compartments covered in faded purple velvet contain an as- sortment of small unidentified brass and ivory fittings. Two other com- partments hold two small crystal bottles with glass stoppers. The most curious of the objects within this piece is an empty cardboard box with the inscription, “brooch with Patrick Henry’s hair”. Do you know anything about the history of this piece, or can you identify any of the small pieces contained within the decorative box? If so, please contact Red Hill. You may be able to help further identify and interpret this heirloom treasure. ...invited inside to enjoy the beautiful new space... 4 PHDB Reunion This spring 27 Patrick Henry descen- an eventful time for the descendants touring important Henry-related sites dants from the Patrick Henry Descen- to be a part of several meaningful in Virginia and getting to connect dants’ Branch at Red Hill gathered for occasions taking place at Red Hill, in with one another.

  • Salicylate Food and Product Shopping Lists Last Updated: January 31 2021
    p. 1 Salicylate Food and Product Shopping Lists Last Updated: January 31 2021 Formatted for shopping convenience from The Low-Sal Life Go to the website at https://low-sal-life.com/food-product-lists#products for more data on each item, the year and sources for that data, and their complete and awesome list of citations, studies and research: “There have been five major studies testing salicylates in food over the last forty years. I will categorize food by the highest study's levels which includes Free + Bound Salicylic Acid levels, but also include all the historical results. Please take caution while trying new foods. Also note, that the food industry has changed and scientific methods improved in 40 years which may be a few reasons why salicylate levels have changed. Malakar et al. reports all levels with free plus bound salicylic acid, not just free like Swain et al. 1985. This may explain why levels are higher than before. Kęszycka also reports both free and bound, but provides the levels separately. This is why white rice is no longer in the negligible list - it has a low level when including bound salicylic acid. While it's not known how the body metabolizes bound salicylates, it's good to know what the full potential is. The best way to use this list is to search for the food item with your browser search - look for ALL the mentions. For example, figs are listed in three categories depending on how they are preserved. Also, some foods were not included in the five research articles, so I've included items like the St.

  • The Expression of Gentility in Colonial America
    The Expression of Gentility in Colonial America by Stephanie Zwinggi The seventeenth and eighteenth centuries in American history are filled with discovery and rapid evolvement as well as a constant feeling or theme of instability and a heavy influence from multiple countries and other sources. This is comparable to the outlook of a modern teenager trying to make sense of their surroundings and take control of their future. The creation of the United States of America could be, and usually is, considered a successful project, but it can be difficult to understand our simple and fragile beginnings when there is little to no written documentation of the many cultures and circumstances in the vastly different but also strikingly similar economies and environments where the United States, as a unified nation, first began. Because of this, one must look to the physical evidence and the most abundant and important source of documentation left behind by these early Americans, their household inventories, in order to attempt to grasp their lives and cultures in an everyday sense. Gentility was an extremely influential factor in early American culture and continued to play an even more influential role as the years unfolded, but for the middle to lower classes, it did not seem to affect spending habits near as much as one might think. Shown by purchasing habits and associated items listed in ten comparable inventories of middle-class Americans from York County, Virginia to different locations in Massachusetts, there is less of a struggle to appear wealthy and more of a focus on every day survival and basic needs for the majority of early American citizens.
