    Chapter 2 Yeardley's Fort (44Pg65)

    CHAPTER 2 YEARDLEY'S FORT (44PG65) INTRODUCTION In this chapter the fort and administrative center of Flowerdew at 44PG65 are examined in relation to town and fortification planning and the cultural behavior so displayed (Barka 1975, Brain et al. 1976, Carson et al. 1981; Barka 1993; Hodges 1987, 1992a, 1992b, 1993; Deetz 1993). To develop this information, we present the historical data pertaining to town development and documented fortification initiatives as a key part of an overall descriptive grid to exploit the ambiguity of the site phenomena and the historic record. We are not just using historic documents to perform a validation of archaeological hypotheses; rather, we are trying to understand how small-scale variant planning models evolved regionally in a trajectory away from mainstream planning ideals (Beaudry 1988:1). This helps refine our perceptions of this site. The analysis then turns to close examination of design components at the archaeological site that might reveal evidence of competence or "mental template." These are then also factored into a more balanced and meaningful cultural interpretation of the site. 58 59 The site is used to develop baseline explanatory models that are considered in a broader, multi-site context in Chapter 3. Therefore, this section will detail more robust working interpretations that help lay the foundations for the direction of the entire study. In short, learning more about this site as a representative example of an Anglo-Dutch fort/English farmstead teaches us more about many sites struggling with the same practical constraints and planning ideals that Garvan (1951) and Reps (1972) defined.

    Where Have All the Indians Gone? Native American Eastern Seaboard Dispersal, Genealogy and DNA in Relation to Sir Walter Raleigh’S Lost Colony of Roanoke

    Where Have All the Indians Gone? Native American Eastern Seaboard Dispersal, Genealogy and DNA in Relation to Sir Walter Raleigh’s Lost Colony of Roanoke. Roberta Estes Copyright 2009, all rights reserved, submitted for publication [email protected] or [email protected] Abstract Within genealogy circles, family stories of Native American1 heritage exist in many families whose American ancestry is rooted in Colonial America and traverses Appalachia. The task of finding these ancestors either genealogically or using genetic genealogy is challenging. With the advent of DNA testing, surname and other special interest projects2, tools now exist to facilitate grouping participants in a way that allows one to view populations in historical fashions. This paper references and uses data from several of these public projects, but particularly the Melungeon, Lumbee, Waccamaw, North Carolina Roots and Lost Colony projects3. The Lumbee have long claimed descent from the Lost Colony via their oral history4. The Lumbee DNA Project shows significantly less Native American ancestry than would be expected with 96% European or African Y chromosomal DNA. The Melungeons, long held to be mixed European, African and Native show only one ancestral family with Native DNA5. Clearly more testing would be advantageous in all of these projects. This phenomenon is not limited to these groups, and has been reported by other researchers such as Bolnick (et al, 2006) where she reports finding in 16 Native American populations with northeast or southeast roots that 47% of the families who believe themselves to be full blooded or no less than 75% Native with no paternal European admixture find themselves carrying European or African y-line DNA.

The opinions I have had of its errors, I sacrifice to the public good. I have never whispered a syllable of them abroad. Within these walls they were born, and here they shall die. If every one of us in returning to our Constituents were to report the objections he has had to it, and endeavor to gain partizans in support of them, we might prevent its being generally received, and thereby lose all the salutary effects and great advantages resulting naturally in our favor among foreign Nations as well as among ourselves, from our real or apparent unanimity. —BENJAMIN FRANKLIN FINAL REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS FROM THE COMMISSION ON THE PRACTICE OF DEMOCRATIC CITIZENSHIP OUR COMMON REINVENTING AMERICAN PURPOSEDEMOCRACY FOR THE 21ST CENTURY american academy of arts & sciences Cambridge, Massachusetts © 2020 by the American Academy of Arts & Sciences All rights reserved.

The martlet or swallow is a favorite device in European heraldry, and has assumed a somewhat unreal character from the circumstance that it catches its food on the wing and never appears to light on the ground as other birds do. It is depicted in armory always with wings close and in pro­ file, with no visable legs or feet. The martlet is the appropriate "differ­ ence" or mark of cadency for the fourth son. It is modernly used to signify, as the bird seldom lights on land, so younger brothers have little land to rest on but the wings of their own endeavor, who, like the swallows, become the travellers in their season.

This study proceeds in two parts. The first part of this study provides an empirical analysis of contextual and candidate specific factors thought to affect the way in which gender stereotypes surface during gubernatorial campaigns and how they affect women candidates accordingly.

    Suffragists Picketing the White House, 1917

    Library of Congress Suffragists Picketing the White House, 1917. 6 ARLI NGTON HISTORI CAL M AGAZINE Virginia Women and the Vote BY NANCY TATE The Big Picture August 26, 1920. Early that morning, and without fanfare, United States Secretary of State Bainbridge Colby signed a proclamation stating that the required 36 states had ratified the so-called Susan B. Anthony Amendment. That new 19 111 Amendment to the Constitution stated simply that "The right of citizens of the United States to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States or any state on account of sex." That proclamation culminated 72 years of organized struggle to win the vote for women and finally succeeded only when one young legislator in the last state-Tennessee-switched his vote after receiving a letter from his mother. The struggle to win the vote was long and hard. It was more than a political struggle; it was deeply social and cultural as well. It took three generations of dedicated activists who withstood continual verbal abuse and ridicule. The messaging and the tactics took many forms, played out in every state, and involved women of all races and many men. "It took more than 900 local, state, and national campaigns, involving tens of thousands of grassroots volunteers, financed by millions of dollars of mostly small ( and a few large) donations by women across the country." 1 The final act was purposely done with little fanfare, but this movement produced the largest expansion of the franchise in our country's history. The 19 111 Amendment guarantees a constitutional right to vote for American women.

Many of these recommendations are reflected in Governor Northam’s current legislative priorities, including measures to restore voting rights, invest in education, and expand expungements of prior convictions. “Our Commonwealth remains focused on acknowledging and righting the wrongs of our past,” said Governor Northam. “This latest report makes clear that there is still work to do to shed the ugly remnants of Virginia’s history. The Commission is already having a significant impact on our shared legislative priorities and I look forward to continuing our partnership to build a more honest, equitable, and inclusive future for all.” The Commission’s recommendations played a key role in the formation of Governor Northam’s current legislative agenda, which includes proposals to automatically restore the voting rights of people with felony convictions, legalize adult-use marijuana, abolish the death penalty, invest in education infrastructure and early childhood education, expand expungement of previous convictions, and protect the ownership rights of “heirs property.” The Commission’s work also informed many of Governor Northam’s legislative proposals for the August 2020 special session that centered on meaningful police reform and COVID-19 relief.

    Government in Jamestown, 1619

    GOVERNMENT IN JAMESTOWN, 1619 LEVEL Elementary GUIDING QUESTION What did the English government look like at Jamestown in 1619? VIRGINIA STANDARDS AND HISTORICAL SKILLS SOL: VS. 3d Analyzing and interpreting primary sources, analyzing the impact of geographic features; organizing information LESSON OVERVIEW 1619 was a year of many firsts for the Virginia colony, including the first legislative assembly held in English North America. This initial meeting of the General Assembly convened in the choir of the Jamestown church and consisted of the governor, his Council, and elected representatives from all of the settled areas of Virginia. The assembly marked the beginning of representative government, based on English law and political institutions, in what is now the United States of America and is the antecedent of today’s Virginia General Assembly, the oldest legislative body in English America. In this lesson, students will explore the first meeting of the General Assembly in August 1619 as an example of representative legislature by 1) identifying the burgesses and locations they represented using a map of the early settlements, and 2) working in groups to analyze the primary source, “Laws Enacted by the First General Assembly of Virginia.” MATERIALS “Guardians of Jamestown, 1619” video clip: “The First General Assembly Meeting in Virginia” Map and Map Key: Towns, Plantations, Settlements, and Communities in Virginia, 1607-1624 Student Worksheet: Participants of the First General Assembly Meeting at Jamestown Excerpts from the “Laws Enacted by the General Assembly of Virginia” P a g e | 2 PROCEDURE Warm up/Staging the Question 1.
