One of the most notable was Samuel - Colorado 8 Blachley Webb. In June 21, 1776 he was - Delaware 9 appointed Aide-de-Camp to General George Washington and later was the Grand - Georgia 10 Marshal of his inauguration. He wrote to his - Kansas 12 wife Catherine describing that glorious day: - Kentucky 13 “I accompanied the President from his - Michigan 14 lodgings to the Senate room, from thence to - Missouri 15 St. Paul’s Church and back to his House, - Oklahoma 17 thro’ the surrounding shouts of Joy, of the greatest concourse of citizens, that I ever - Great Britain 18 beheld.” General Samuel Blachley Webb held the Bible when Washington was sworn into office. What led up to that moment was a life of service to his newly forming Country. Continued on page 2 From the Administrat or Dear Project Members, I would like to ask that everyone take a minute to do a year end “audit” of their information on the Webb Surname DNA Project website [www.webbdnaproject.org] including the Y-DNA Results Chart and Lineages.

  • THE COLLECTED POEMS of HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam
    1 THE COLLECTED POEMS OF HENRIK IBSEN Translated by John Northam 2 PREFACE With the exception of a relatively small number of pieces, Ibsen’s copious output as a poet has been little regarded, even in Norway. The English-reading public has been denied access to the whole corpus. That is regrettable, because in it can be traced interesting developments, in style, material and ideas related to the later prose works, and there are several poems, witty, moving, thought provoking, that are attractive in their own right. The earliest poems, written in Grimstad, where Ibsen worked as an assistant to the local apothecary, are what one would expect of a novice. Resignation, Doubt and Hope, Moonlight Voyage on the Sea are, as their titles suggest, exercises in the conventional, introverted melancholy of the unrecognised young poet. Moonlight Mood, To the Star express a yearning for the typically ethereal, unattainable beloved. In The Giant Oak and To Hungary Ibsen exhorts Norway and Hungary to resist the actual and immediate threat of Prussian aggression, but does so in the entirely conventional imagery of the heroic Viking past. From early on, however, signs begin to appear of a more personal and immediate engagement with real life. There is, for instance, a telling juxtaposition of two poems, each of them inspired by a female visitation. It is Over is undeviatingly an exercise in romantic glamour: the poet, wandering by moonlight mid the ruins of a great palace, is visited by the wraith of the noble lady once its occupant; whereupon the ruins are restored to their old splendour.

BULLETIN U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Interagency Resources Division Nominating Historic Vessels and Shipwrecks to the National Register of Historic Places James P. Delgado and A National Park Service Maritime Task Force* INTRODUCTION For over two hundred years, the United States relied on ships as connective links of a nation. Vessels crossing the Atlantic, Caribbean, and Pacific Oceans, and our inland waters made fundamen­ tal contributions to colonial settle­ ment, development of trade, exploration, national defense, and territorial expansion. Unfortunately, we have lost much of this maritime tradition, and most historic vessels have gone to watery graves or have been scrapped by shipbreakers. Many vessels, once renowned or common, now can only be ap­ preciated in print, on film, on can­ vas, or in museums. To recognize those cultural resources important in America's past and to encourage their preser­ vation, Congress expanded the National Register of Historic Places in 1966. Among the ranks of prop­ erties listed in the National Register are vessels, as well as buildings and structures, such as canals, drydocks, shipyards, and lighthouses that survive to docu­ ment the Nation's maritime heritage. Yet to date, the National Register has not been fully utilized for listing maritime resources, par­ ticularly historic vessels.
