Who Was Who II of Hanover, IL 1 Who Was Who II of Hanover, IL as of April 7, 2011 This proposed book contains biographies of people from Hanover who died after March 2, 1980, and up until when the book will go to the printer, hopefully in February 2011. The first Who Was Who was a book of biographies of everyone from Hanover, who had died, from the first settlers, up until February 28, 1980, when the book went to the printer. PLEASE let me know ALL middle names of everyone in each bio. This will help people doing research years from now. As you read through the information below PLEASE let me know of any omissions or corrections of any of your friends or family. I want this to be a book that will honor all of our past Hanover residents and to keep them alive in our memory. The prerequisites for being listed in this book are (1) being deceased, (2) having some sort of connection to Hanover, whether that is being born in Hanover or living in Hanover for some time, or (3) being buried in one of the three cemeteries.

Parent’s name (including Mother’s maiden name) 4. Where they went to school 5. If they served in the Military – what branch – what years served 6. Married to whom, when and where 7.

For genealogy research purposes it is strongly advised by historians to keep the last name correct for the time the obit was written . NOTE: You will notice some of the bio’s are in italic.

September 2017 Acknowledgements I would like to take this opportunity to thank Sam Burton and James Marson for all of the advice and support they have provided. Further, I would like to express my gratitude towards them for their continual dedication to the Sheffield Hallam Law department. Abstract This thesis aims to explore why torture, deemed illegitimate by the Western world for more than a century, has resurfaced as a topic of debate, and persists despite its formal prohibition. It also endeavours to shed light on the main issues involved in the ‘torture debate’. To do so, it begins by exploring the history of torture; examining how it has developed over time, and how its uses have changed.

Due to this inherent link with masculinity, American women were kept from participating in sports to protect their feminine nature. As the years passed of continuous oppression, only a small handful of women were able to fight back and make a name for themselves as prominent and successful athletes. To combat the larger issue of gender discrimination in America, a women’s movement was launched in the 1960s and 1970s.

    AP United States History Summer Assignment 2017 Mr. John Raines Summer contact: [email protected] Summer Assignment Directions and Parent Letter Dear Students and Parents: I am excited that you have decided to accept the challenge of taking an Advanced Placement class, which is a university-level course taught in high school. I promise that you will strengthen your academic, intellectual, observation, and discussion skills. Additionally, I promise that each of you will become a stronger writer from this course. I am excited to teach this class again next year and I am dedicated to providing a challenging and rewarding academic experience. The first question you have to answer is WHY ARE YOU TAKING THIS COURSE? Possible answers include: It will look good on my transcript. My parents are making me do it. My friends are taking it. I took AP World History. I love The History Channel. I want the challenge of a demanding, nearly impossible course. I don’t need sleep and love writing essays and answering difficult multiple-choice tests. I want to get a 5 on the AP Test and brag about it to my friends and relatives. All of these are good answers, but none of these in themselves are good enough. That is, an AP history student must be dedicated whole-heartedly to this course. It is expected that you will spend several hours each week preparing for this course. As a part of this course you will be consistently be reading several different sources. Failure to stay up on the reading is unacceptable for a college-level course and will result in poor performance in this course.
