Privately printed and bound in Birmingham, Alabama, June 1959 by Silas Emmett Lucas, Jr, PREFACE This book, though not a complete genealogy of any of the four main families is as complete as I have been able to make it in five short years of research, It is hoped that what I have compiled and put into print will be an impetus to other relatives, to someday carry my research farther back into history on all of the families concerned. No matter how humble our beginning, we should all have pride in our fore-fathers and deep respect for their beliefs, for had they not had the fortitude to seek "new pastures" we might be living in a land not nearly so kind to us, It is my belief that, no matter how distantly related we are to each other, we should try to keep in closer contact and kindle the family relationship that we are a part of and so.often neglect, Many of us enjoy belonging to organizations that our ancestors made possible, such as the Sons or baughters of the American Revolution -this is possible for all descendants of Reuben Pyles, for he seroed as a Private in the Abbeville County, South Carolina Troops during the Revolutionary War - others may prefer the Colonial Dames or Society of Colonial Wars and this is possible thru Wil­ liam ap Thomas, who seroed as a Burgess from Elizabeth City County, Virginia in 1655 to 1658., No Revolutionary or Colonial Wars data has yet been found for the descendants of the Lucas family alone. It is hoped that someday some form of patriotic service will be found that was performed by one of our Lucas ancestors, A word of caution to all descendants of our Lucas family. Although there were other Lucases in South Carolina from the late 1700's on down thru the present day; our family cannot be connected with them. To delve further in our Lucas past, we must go to Robeson and Bladen Counties, North Carolina in the late 1700's to 1800 and begin from there, either back into other North Car­ olina Counties or to Virginia or Maryland. Otherwise, to search South Carolina further will be a waste of time and money, as I have already had the state of Couth Carolina searched completely in all counties where Lucases were known to have been. I would be happy to have any correspondence with any relatives who desire to contact me for I havemuch more data on the families than there was room to put in the book, such as wills, deeds, etc, Someday, if time and finances are right, I would like to do a reprint of this book to add in additional data that I may un­ cover or receive from relatives, I would deeply appreciate any additional data anyone can send me on the families covered in this book, so that I can bring my records even more up-to-date, I would like to caution the readers about the spelling of names in this book, In the majority of cases the spelling of names is correct, however, in some cases they are not since the names, dates, etc. were sent in from various people in various sections of the country and many people spelled them as they sound. H I do have someone's named spelled wrong, please forgive me since I did not have the time to write each member personally. The authenticity for the Dodson records should be accepted as correct since I did not have space to show all copies of deeds, will, marriages, birth records, etc, but have these records in my personal files. The authenticity for the Lucas records such as marriages, births, deaths, etc, have been gathered from numerous sources and especially from correspondence with relatives, personal visits, from tombstone inscriptions, etc. and Bible records and here again my space was too limited to cite each reference. And lastly, the early census records of the various counties where relatives were known to have lived. Anyone who ever desires to contact me, please follow the instructions below: Write me in care of my parent's address, which is: 3024 North Woodridge Road, Birmingham 13, Ala. If for some reason the letter is return, then write the Episco­ pal Bishop of Alabama, clo Carpenter House, Birmingham, Ala., and ask for my correct address or have them forward your letters to me, as they will always have my correct address, I would like to express my deepest appreciation and gratitude to the following relatives for their generous assistance in helping me to compile this genealogy: Mrs, Jennie Lucas Webster of Winfield,Ala.; Mrs. Minnie Lucas Davis of Durant, Miss,; Murry Lemuel Lucas of Winfield, Ala.; John C. Estes of Guin, Ala.; Lewis Carr Henry of Washington, D, C.; A. Lewis Dotson of Salt Lake City, Utah; Wil­ lard L. Dodson of Wyandotte, Mich,; William A, Waller of Mobile, Ala.; Mrs. L. A. Draper of Anniston, Ala,; Elbert Lee Dodson, Sr. of Tuscaloosa, Ala.; The Rev. Elias Dodson notes compiled and edited by the late Frank Fuller of Memphis, Tennessee; Rochester H. Rogers of Rochester, New York; Murdock F. Lucas of Cayce, South Carolina; U. Hudson Gantt of Pelion, South Carolina, Elmer Elijah Lucas of Leesville, South Carolina; Mrs. J. David Haltiwanger of Batesburg, South Carolina; Mrs. J. Albert Dees of Corinth, Mississippi; Jesse Levi Rish of West Columbia, South Carolina; James Thomas Lucas, Winfield, Ala., and many, many others too numerous to mention.And especially my mother and father, Mr. and Mrs. Silas Emmett Lucas, Sr. The identification of the various descendants of all families undertaken in this genealogy will be by separate families such as Dodson, Lucas, Pyles, etc, and the code is as follows, based upon the decimal letter system: The earliest immigrant of the family is lettered a; his children are lettered aa, ah, ac, etc. The children of the oldest child are lettered aaa, aah, aac, etc., of the second child, aha, abb, abc, etc; and so on through each succeeding generation, each descendant having as many letters as the number of the generation to which he belongs and the letters show exactly his line of de­ scent. For convenience in counting, a space, corresponding,to a decimal point, is left after the fourth letter, Another method, used by myself, in identifying more carefully and easily my descent from the first ancestor of each of the families compiled here, I pick out an ancestor about four generation or so from the first one or the immigrant and label this person with a capital letter N as a fixed symbol, rather than having so many letters such as aaaa aaaa aaa - therefore it could be NNNa with the first N being in reality aaaa aaa. ABBREVIATIONS b.-means born; d.-means died; m.-means married; a date such as 2/23/1786 means Feb. 23, 1789; ca.-means about or around; bur.-means buried; Co.­ means County; Va., Ala., S. C., Ky., etc. are abbreviations of the various states in the U.S.A.; issue-means children of; F-means female; M-means male, CONTENTS DEDICATION PREFACE Understanding the alphabetical system of identification Page I.

The increase in the cost of living and the increased prices which the farmers was getting for his produce had been mainly instrumental in bringing about increased wages. The wages however are still very low. The usual daily wage current in 1913 were for men 2s to 3s 6d, for women 1s 6d to 3s. RESERVES CALLED UP IMMEDIATELY At the start of WW1 58,000 Irishmen were already enlisted in the British Regular Army or Navy – 21,000 serving regular soldiers, 18,000 reservists, 12,000 in the Special Reserve, 5,000 Naval ratings and 2,000 officers.

  • Clergy in the Diocese of Dunedin 1852-1919 a Biographical Directory of Anglican Clergy Who Served in Otago and Southland Compiled by Michael Blain (2003) 2
    Clergy in the Diocese of Dunedin 1852-1919 a biographical directory of Anglican clergy who served in Otago and Southland Compiled by Michael Blain First edition 2003 Copyright the Reverend Dr. Michael Blain, 2003 Reproduced online with permission at http://anglicanhistory.org Address inquiries to [email protected] Clergy in the Diocese of Dunedin 1852-1919 A biographical directory of Anglican clergy who served in Otago and Southland Compiled by Michael Blain (2003) 2 Introduction This biographical directory features all the Anglican priests who served in the southern regions of the South Island of New Zealand between 1852 and 1919. 1852 marks the licensing of John Fenton the first Anglican priest with pastoral responsibilities in the new town of Dunedin. 1919 marks the retirement of the first bishop of Dunedin, Samuel Tarratt Nevill. Between these two dates some 200 clergy came and went from Otago and Southland, the region served now by the Anglican diocese of Dunedin. All of them here receive attentive research. They prove to be a fascinating group of people, whose backgrounds, careers, and connections offer a unique insight into colonial Otago. George Augustus Selwyn, the bishop of New Zealand (from his appointment on 10 October 1841 to his resignation in May 1869) was the epitome of a missionary—going everywhere fast, staying nowhere long in his efforts to reach everyone in every place. He met the leading colonists and church members in Dunedin in 1848, but had no priest to offer them until after the two dozen ships and chaplains of the Canterbury Association had arrived two years later in Canterbury.

While the move- ment of the Encrlish and Welsh Quakers to Pennsylvania has been treated to some extent by historians, that of the Irish Quakers has been overlooked, and it was with the hope of filling, in a measure, this deficiency that the present work was undertaken. It has been my endeavor to give a plain, orderly presentation of the facts, without embellishment and I have deemed it of greater interest to let the contemporary records, as much as possible, tell their own story.

TAYLOR & Co. (BLACKPOOL) LTD., BACK REGENT ROAD, BLACKPOOL 1961 PREFACE Jt is now more than thirty years since the last list of the Chester probate records, for the period 1811 to 1820, was published by the Record Society in volumes 78 and 79. In 1949 all the documents prior to 1858 were removed from the jurisdiction of the Chester Probate Registry and divided into three groups : those relating to Welsh estates were deposited in the National Library of Wales, the Cheshire ones went to the Cheshire Record Office in Chester, and the remainder — by far the largest portion — which related to Lancashire estates, together with the indexes, registers and act books were deposited in the Lancashire Record Office in Preston. All the wills proved and administrations granted in the Chester Court for the period 1821 to 1825 are now listed in this volume in three indexes, baldly described as Lancashire, Cheshire and Welsh, although several documents in each group relate to other parts of the country.
