Hurd (257) ....................................... 293 A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY OF THE FAMILY OF HURD HISTORY ''Broader and deeper we must write our annals." EMERSON. N history, the litterateur finds no place for the idealistic, and is dependent more than any other writer upon a lim­ I ited class of material. The remains, such as buildings, implements, ruins and relics; documents, from which govern­ mental facts may be obtained; achievements of art and literature; contemporary narratives, annals and traditions constitute the entire resource upon which to found authen­ ticity. After collective research, and classification of the material the work must be studied critically and finally interpreted in the light of the writer's knowledge of human nature and of facts in possession. For centuries, the historian was compelled to rely upon myths, traditions and oral testimonies; and from which, especially the latter, were the narrator a man gifted of speech, poetic or idealistic, wide range was given for elaboration and embellishment. The Pharaohs, flourishing 2000 years before Christ, invented Hieroglyphics, (from the Greek, meaning sacred carving,) or picture writing, and the art, improved by the Egyptians almost to an alphabet, was confined to sacred subjects and legible only to the Priests. The scientist, interested in research, finds more than a passing interest in the mosaics of the Egyptian, Babylonian and Roman Empires. The intricate designs, figures, birds, beasts and reptiles, interwoven with the most intricate designs, of geometrical and astrological signs, which are found in ruins of old structures, tombs, cathedrals, etc., all tell a story, which 3 4 A HISTORY AND GENEALOGY if interpreted, could no doubt throw light upon Ancient His- tory that must remain forever a mystery. · When Greece was theme for story, and poets sang endless praises over her hero Achilles and crowned his name with endless glory for conquering the mighty Hector; Rome was growing in power, until Cresar, returning through Pontus, def eating the Pharnaces after the struggle with Cleopatra, he informed the senate of his victory in the laconic dispatch, "Veni, vidi, vici" ("I came, I saw, I conquered"). Rome was mistress of the World! With this achievement, history must narrate that persecution, bloodshed and victory meant a greater privilege for the indulgence of pompous degradation and debauchery, while Literature and Art declined. With the fall of the Roman Empire came added struggles to build and maintain the home life, and, with the ever restless, ceaseless surging hither and thither of the world's people, came the mad strife for supremacy in the establishment of dynasties. History was truly a thing of the buried past, Art was lost and Literature declined. Men of learning were replaced, ruled and governed by men of bodily strength, until the twelfth century awoke to the fact that civilization had declined to the extinction of almost all progressive influences. Introspection of what civilization might have been with an ever increasing amount of fitness, with the added force of achievement gained by conquered adversaries, made possible by the transmission of the blood of those ancient giants of literature, art, architecture and power through those inter­ vening centuries of decline without a lost link in the chain between then and now ;-music, science, inventions; inter­ national laws, inventive knowledge, an unbroken strain of advance toward the heights; a picture of Life Harmo­ nious ! Writers of Ancient History were compelled to gather and accept such remnants of facts as were attainable; documents THE FAMILY OF HURD 5 sacred to mankind gathered as spoil and destroyed through savage hatred of power; determination to conquer and desire to lead; here and there a fragment only, often illegible because of the lost art to decipher. Medieval fragments, still less authentic by the poor and incomplete manner of recording or transmitting, left the his­ tory of the world's people unwritten. With Modern History and the revival of learning, came a re-creation of patriotism and a gradual increasing thirst for accomplishments. The forming of dynasties, the making of history and recording the more important achievements became matters of interest. Steadily learning advanced as the history of those famed for service in their country's welfare, or for betrayal of trust was recorded. Royalty was established, kings and princes mar- . ried only into families royal and of those families record was _kept. Men advancing in learning and power felt the yoke of submission, and the blood of ancestors rebelled under the load. Minds and hearts clamoring for voice in their country's cause, wherein men struggled and were made independent, led to reformations religious and politic. Then followed Republics. With the building of a Republic where merit holds the scep­ ter and its men mould the nation, the importance of record­ ing the history of men is paramount. Little is known of a Republic's people, although some day, any day, are men available and liable for places of trust in the carving of future greatness. The horticulturist keeps close record of our grain, our fruit, our flowers, and at once men can tell of its ancestry by its name. The breeder of fine stock keeps close record of per­ fection and defect, transmitting the purest and best. Nature's

  • The Haden-Darwin-Wright Connection
    1 The Haden-Darwin-Wright Connection (© Phil Tunaley). Introduction There was already a close relationship between the Haden and Wright families even when the original Haden family was based in Wednesbury, West Midlands, Staffordshire. Joseph Wright had painted a portrait of Thomas Haden with Thomas, born Wednesbury 1760, aged between 12 and 16 years and hence placing the year of the painting between 1772.and 1776. ("Portrait of Master Thomas Haden": http://www.artnet.com/artists/joseph-wright-of-derby/portrait-of- master-thomas-haden-YUYoRlyDiZsLjBzl0lWOvA2 ). So Thomas Haden's portrait would have been created 15- 20 years before Joseph Wright painted portraits of Mary Tunaley and the twins Ann and Sarah Haden (born 1788). Indeed the timing (1772-1776) of the painting of Thomas Haden as a boy by Joseph Wright indicate Wright being acquainted not only with the senior members of the Haden family (Thomas's father Joseph (1722-1799) and mother Ann (nee Bunn)) but also, as it transpires, with Thomas’s elder brother Alexander Bunn Haden (1752-1829). The aim of this article is to show how circumstances, some good, some bad, brought the Hadens into contact and later friendship with Erasmus Darwin and the Wright family. Thomas Haden, his father Joseph and elder brother Alexander Bunn Haden Thomas was the third son of Joseph Haden (b. 1722) originally of Old Swinford, Worcestershire and Anne (nee Bunn b. 1733) of Wednesbury, Staffordshire. Joseph’s 1751 marriage to Ann seems to have signalled a permanent move by Joseph to Wednesbury. And, according to records, the Haden-Bunn marriage took place at the then rebuilt (1741) Anglican Church of St.

EDINBURGH Printed at the University Press by T. A. Constable Ltd. for the Scottish History Society 1922 CONTENTS INTRODUCTION DIARY—Vol. I. DIARY—You II. INDEX INTRODUCTION Of the two MS. volumes containing the Diary, of which the following pages are an abstract, it was the second which first came into my hands. It had found its way by some unknown means into the archives in the Offices of the Church of Scotland, Edinburgh ; it had been lent about 1899 to Colonel Milne Home of Wedderburn, who was interested in the district where Ridpath lived, but he died shortly after receiving it. The volume remained in possession of his widow, who transcribed a large portion with the ultimate view of publication, but this was never carried out, and Mrs. Milne Home kindly handed over the volume to me. It was suggested that the Scottish History Society might publish the work as throwing light on the manners and customs of the period, supplementing and where necessary correcting the Autobiography of Alexander Carlyle, the Life and Times of Thomas Somerville, and the brilliant, if prejudiced, sketch of the ecclesiastical and religious life in Scotland in the eighteenth century by Henry Gray Graham in his well-known work. When this proposal was considered it was found that the Treasurer of the Society, Mr.

  • Trail Commission Searches SC Swamps for Gen. Francis Marion
    Vol. 4 No. 1_____________________________________ ________________January – March 2007 Trail Commission Searches SC Swamps for Gen. Francis Marion The oil on canvas painting, General Marion Inviting a British Officer to Share His Meal, by Eutaw Springs artist John Blake White (1781 - 1859), memorializes the “Swamp Fox” sharing his sweet potato dinner with a British officer reported by “Parson” Mason Locke Weems in his highly romanticized The Life of General Francis Marion: A Celebrated Partisan Officer, in the Revolutionary War, Against the British and Tories in South Carolina and Georgia. This painting was presented to the United States Senate in 1899. According to the artist’s son, Octavius A. White: “the figure of Marion is a portrait from memory, as my father, when a boy, knew him well. Marion’s farm adjoined the plantation of my grandfather.” If this is true, this is the closest any artistic representation of Marion is to the artist having painted a contemporaneous image of the partisan. For more information on this painting, see the catalogue write-up at http://www.senate.gov/artandhistory/art/artifact/Painting_33_00002.htm. For recent “news” on Oscar Marion, see http://fusilier.wordpress.com/2006/12/17/oscar-marion-is-anonymous-no-longer. The Francis Marion Trail Commission will seek out the documentation and archaeology to sort the myth from the man and to accurately depict the story of the Revolution in the Pee Dee and Lowcountry of South Carolina on those hallowed grounds. 1 Editor / Publisher’s Notes Academicians have many academic journals in which to publish articles, but the lay writers are much more limited.

Shultz brought his report on the collapsed summit hopes to West Euro­ pean foreign ministers Friday. "I don't know what the problems are,” he told reporters on his flight from Moscow. "They must be significant.” He said pianning for a summit suddenly fell apart when Gorbachev asked him whether a Washington summit meeting with Reagan would produce some sort of agreement in principle on reducing strategic nuclear weapons and curbing Reagan's Stra­ tegic Defense Initiative program for a space-based defense system. "I said I could not guarantee that at all,” Shultz said, recounting his taiks with the Soviet leader in Moscow. Shultz will report to the North Atlantic Treaty Organization here on Saturday, hold a news conference and then to return to Washington.
