  • National Genealogical Society
    The National Genealogical Society: A Look at Its First One Hundred Years By Shirley Langdon Wilcox, CG, FNGS 31 October 2003 The National Genealogical Society: A Look at Its First One Hundred Years By Shirley Langdon Wilcox, CG, FNGS 31 October 2003 In 1903 American interest in the country's past ran high. For several national hereditary organizations headquartered in Washington, D.C., patriotism was a centerpiece. Their officials included registrars and others whose interests also embraced genealogy, and membership required tracing family lineages. In April 1903 the monthly Historical Bulletin, which served as the official news organ for several of the groups (see figure 1) published a call for the formation of a genealogical society. Dr. Albert C. Peale, registrar of the Society of Colonial Wars and assistant registrar of the National Society Sons of the American Revolution, had suggested “the formation of a local genealogical society” [emphasis added];1 the Bulletin’s publisher, Newton Leon Collamer, announced an organizational meeting at his home in Washington, D.C., and suggested that “such an organization might eventually assume even a National scope.”2 On 24 April 1903, six individuals met to discuss a plan: Dr. Joseph G. B. Bulloch, Newton L. and Gertrude Collamer, Alfred Barbour Dent, Eugenia Washington Moncure, and Ruth M. Griswold Pealer. Shortly afterwards, an organizing committee mailed to genealogists throughout the United States a Prospectus for the American Genealogical Association.3 Its principal aims, as shown in figure 2 included • publishing records to benefit researchers at a distance; • ensuring access to records; • creating a “card index bureau” or “clearinghouse” to facilitate the exchange of information; and • establishing a library.

  • Sovereign Order of St John of Jerusalem
    SOVEREIGN ORDER OF SAINT JOHN OF JERUSALEM History and Lineage Charts Since 1797 Founded near Our Lord’s Holy Sepulcher c. 1050, the Brothers of the Hospital of Saint John is one of the oldest orders of the Catholic Church. The Order of St. John of Jerusalem was elevated to a monastic order in 1098 by which time it had developed into a military brotherhood known as the Hospitallers. The Brethren defended their Hospital and ensured the health and safety of pilgrims coming to the Kingdom of Jerusalem. The King of Jerusalem confirmed the Hospitallers as an international corporation in 1104. The Apostolic See became its perpetual Protector in 1113 by a Papal Bull of Paschal II. Renowned for skilled hospital care and prowess in battle, the Hospitaller Knights became indispensable defenders of Christendom and the Order was recognized as a sovereign state in 1191. The Order was forced by the Moslems from the Holy Land in 1291 and from Rhodes in 1523. The Convent of the Order was on the island of Malta, and its 70th Grand Master was Prince Ferdinand von Hompesch, when the humanist revolution was creating widespread change on the political map of Europe. The Knights of the Order used strategic foresight in gaining the Czar of Russia as a secondary Protector because in 1798 Malta was seized by General Napoleon Bonaparte. A large contingent of French Knights of Malta, who had accepted the precepts of the revolutionaries, joined Napoleon’s army. Most of the remainder rallied to St. Petersburg, Russia, which was the home of their new powerful Protector.
