Aparecían como privadas, pero casi siempre estaban tras ellas las Coronas respectivas. En África occidental la trata humana, condujo a franceses, portugueses, españoles, etc. a crear diversas compañías y fundar distintos poblados. Joaquín Portillo Pasqual del Riquelme (1), indica que “Creándose entonces la Compagnie du Cap Vert et du Senegal, y en 1664 la Compagnie des Indes Occidentales, con la idea de monopolizar durante 40 años el tráfico de carne humana, desde Cabo Verde al de Buena Esperanza con destino a las Antillas; en ella tuvo acciones el propio Voltaire. Más comedida en sus ambiciones y longevidad fue la Compagnie du Senegal (1672—1661). Sin embargo, los ingleses se les habían adelantado; estaban en Gambia desde 1608…. Fundada en 1618, la “Compañía de los aventureros reales de Africa”, obtenía en 1661 la exclusiva de la trata desde Cabe Blanco (en el Sahara Occidental) al de Buena Esperanza; y, como se deriva de su propio nombre, todos sus accionistas pertenecían a la aristocracia inglesa.

  • English Duplicates of Lost Virginia Records
    T iPlCTP \jrIRG by Lot L I B RAHY OF THL UN IVER.SITY Of ILLINOIS 975.5 D4-5"e ILL. HJST. survey Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2012 with funding from University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign http://archive.org/details/englishduplicateOOdesc English Duplicates of Lost Virginia Records compiled by Louis des Cognets, Jr. © 1958, Louis des Cognets, Jr. P.O. Box 163 Princeton, New Jersey This book is dedicated to my grandmother ANNA RUSSELL des COGNETS in memory of the many years she spent writing two genealogies about her Virginia ancestors \ i FOREWORD This book was compiled from material found in the Public Record Office during the summer of 1957. Original reports sent to the Colonial Office from Virginia were first microfilmed, and then transcribed for publication. Some of the penmanship of the early part of the 18th Century was like copper plate, but some was very hard to decipher, and where the same name was often spelled in two different ways on the same page, the task was all the more difficult. May the various lists of pioneer Virginians contained herein aid both genealogists, students of colonial history, and those who make a study of the evolution of names. In this event a part of my debt to other abstracters and compilers will have been paid. Thanks are due the Staff at the Public Record Office for many heavy volumes carried to my desk, and for friendly assistance. Mrs. William Dabney Duke furnished valuable advice based upon her considerable experience in Virginia research. Mrs .Olive Sheridan being acquainted with old English names was especially suited to the secretarial duties she faithfully performed.

Then yesterday happened, January 6, 2021. I think we all need to read the book called "A Boy, A Mole, A Fox and a Horse." It's about Love and Kindness. I had to read it twice to understand the message fully. Thank you to those who wrote me. Here's what our classmates are up to: Mary Roberts Judkins writes that she hasn't sent any news since our 50th, which she enjoyed very much. Here is a brief recap from 2013 to the present: In 2013, I was living in Hume doing my horse thing and my in-home dog boarding business. In 2016, I decided it was time to live in town. I thought it would take me 2 years to sell my house, but it took 2 weeks by myself. I quickly moved to a townhouse in Warrenton, It was hard to deal with all the steps for me and my aging dog, so this past October I moved to a one-level house in Warrenton. Covid has certainly made a difference for me as my family is all far away, but I have my dog and I'm coping. I am in frequent touch with SUE JORDAN Rodarte in San Antonio, TX, and am trying to figure out a good volunteer project.

  • And the South Sea
    CHAPTER XXIII. THE BUCCANEERS IN PANAMA BAY AND THE SOUTH SEA. "O'er the glad waters of the dark blue sea, Our thoughts as boundless and our souls as free, Far as the breeze can bear, the billows foam, Survey our empire and behold our home ! These are our realms, no limits to their sway Our flag the sceptre all who meet obey. Ours the wild life in tumult still to range From toil to rest, and joy in every change." l,ord Byron. I HE sack of Old Panama by Henry Morgan called the attention of the Buccaneers to the feasibility of crossing the Isthmus, and the opportunities for plunder on the Pacific coast. During Morgan's stay in Panama, he had great difficulty, as we know, in preventing some of his men from seizing a ship, and sailing away on their own account. The invasion of the Isthmus by Buccaneers, the fall of San Lor- enzo, and the capture of Portobello and Panama, showed how easy it was to open the "Gateway" of the New World. The king of Spain became alarmed, and ordered that Panama be rebuilt on a better site ; and that the forts at Portobello, and the castle at the mouth of the Chagre, be repaired and strengthened. In 1674, Don Alonso Mercado de Villacorta established the present city of Panama on a rocky peninsula at the foot of Ancon Hill, eight kilometers two hundred and sixty meters southwest of the old city. The new location was easier to defend, but not so advantageous commercially by reason of the reefs, which prevented vessels coming up to the city, except at high tide.
