Parker and Blount in Florida — Parker & Blount in Florida by Virginia W. Westergard and Kyle S. Van Landingham copyright 1983 Note: This document was created about 1994 by scanning in the original book, page by page, then converting it into text via optical character recognition. The result was imported into Microsoft Word, in which an index was created. In 1994, Kyle Van Landingham reviewed this document for accuracy. The Adobe Acrobat PDF you are viewing was created from this Word document Missing from this file are the approximately 18 pages photos (which were not reproduced all that well in the original book, being very faint). Many of these photos may be found in the genealogy section of the web site http://www.lamartin.com. Also an appendex on Joshua Creek Cemetery in Arcadia and an appendex on a marker at the original site of Fort Blount in Bartow are omitted. Since Mrs. Westergard died in 1993 and Mr. Van Landingham in 2009, since copies of the printed version have long been unavailable and since this document is primarily of interest to genealogical researchers, I am for the first time making the Acrobat version available to those individuals who are interested in this material. William LaMartin Tampa Florida January 3, 2010 — Parker and Blount in Florida — INTRODUCTION The purpose of this book is to provide a genealogy of the Parker and Blount families of Florida. Specifically, Part I commences with John Parker of Sampson County, North Carolina, and includes the descendants of his son, Luke Parker, who moved from North Carolina to Columbia County, Florida, in l831. Part II covers the Blount family. After a brief section which includes the early generations of the family, the descendants of John Churchill Golding Readding Blount, who moved from South Carolina to Columbia County, and later Hillsborough (now Polk) County, Florida, are traced. Part III is the Appendix which includes sections on the Varn, Hiers and Hooker families and a chapter concerning Joshua Creek Cemetery. A brief summary of historical commemorations in Bartow can be found in Appendix 5. Part IV is the pictorial section which includes photographs of early members of the Parker and Blount families. This project began in 1972 and has continued for over ten years. It represents many hours of research in courthouses, genealogical libraries, cemeteries, and interviews and correspondence with family members. Following each biographical sketch will be found references which detail source material utilized in that particular section. We wish to express our appreciation to all persons who have provided information for this book . 2 — Parker and Blount in Florida — NUMBERING SYSTEM PARKER FAMILY: Luke Parker is lettered A His children are lettered AA, AB, AC, etc The children of the oldest child are lettered AAA, AAB, AAC, etc , of the second child ABA, ABB, ABC, etc , and so on through each succeeding generation, each descendant having as many letters as the generation to which he belongs and letters showing exactly his line of descent For example, take Sarah Jane Parker, eldest child of Luke Parker She is lettered AA Her oldest child, Molcy, is lettered AAA Molcy's oldest child is AAAA.

He was born about 1725 and married Rachel Sessums, daughter of Nicholas and Elizabeth Sessums, about ]750. Nicholas Sessums of Edgecombe Co., NC., lists in his Will, dated May 28, 1764, and probated, Oct. Ct. 1764, his wife Elizabeth, to whom he gave the use of his whole estate during her lifetime, his sons Thomas, who received furniture, "my wearing clothes, ; my still, ; my orchard, horse and mare for use on plantation " William, who received 100 acres of land Nicholas, Jr., who was named Executor and received the "whole of my estate after my wife’s decease also to take care of his younger brother Thomas Sessums." Nicholas named his daughters Elizabeth Duffield, Rachel Parker, Lurana Dunn, Ann Dunn, and Sarah Marley, each to receive five shillings. John Parker was witness to a deed from Osborne Jeffreys to Nicholas Sessums, dated Oct. 2, 1744 for land on "West side of Tar River joining to Northside of Town Creek." John Porter sold Samuel Sessums " a tract of land on Tycanoky Swamp, joining Henry Clark, a branch and the swamp,' Jan. a, 3755 John Parker witnessed the deed along with Nicholas Sessums and Richard Sessums. John Parker's residence in Edgecombe County was "on or near Tyancoke Swamp," according to Eleanor D. McSwain. She states that "Tyancoke Creek was sometimes called "Cockey Swamp." The creek was a very long one finally flowing into Town Creek and emptying into the Tar River." John and Rachel (Sessums) Parker were living in Bladen Co., NC., in 1753 at the time of their son John's birth. John Parker received numerous land grants from the State of North Carolina for land in that portion of Duplin County that became Sampson County in 1784. The first tax list of Sampson Co., taken in 1784, lists John, William, Nicholas and Francis Parker. They owned 1010 acres of land. The minutes of the County Court of Pleas and Quarter Sessions of Sampson Co., contain interesting data about John Parker and his sons. The following items were taken from Minute Book 1793-1800: Court, Nov. 10, 1794: Ordered that Nicholas Parker be overseer of the river leading from John Parker, Senr. to Stephen Becks plantation and likewise to the road where Thomas Frasher was overseer of and that John Parker Senrs hands, Thomas Owens, Luke Parker, Burrell Dun, Sessums Parker, Lewis Parker, Josiah Carter, Thos.

MUNFORD HUMANITATEM AMOREMQUE PATRIAE COLITK LONGMANS, GREEN, AND CO 91 AND 93 FIFTH AVENUE, NEAV YORK LONDON, BOMBAY, AND CALCUTTA 1909 THE" N.tV.' YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY 480191 ASTOR, LENOX AN© TILDEN FOUNO*TlONi, R 1909 L Copyright, 1900 by Beverley B. Munford TO MY WIFE PREFACE This work is designed as a contribution to the volume of information from which the historian of the future will be able to prepare an impartial and comprehensive narra- tive of the American Civil War, or to speak more accurately —The American War of Secession. No attempt has been made to present the causes which precipitated the secession of the Cotton States, nor the states which subsequently adopted the same policy, except Virginia. Even in regard to that commonwealth the effort has been limited to the consideration of two features prominent in the public mind as constituting the most potent factors in determining her action—namely, devo- tion to slavery and hostility to the Union. That the people of Virginia were moved to secession by a selfish desire to extend or maintain the institution of slavery, or from hostility to the Union, are propositions seemingly at variance with their whole history and the interests which might naturally have controlled them in the hour of separation. Yet how widespread the impression and how frequent the suggestion from the pen of historian and publicist that the great and compelling motives which led Virginia to secede were a desire to extend slavery into the territories and to safeguard the institution within her own borders, coupled with a spirit of hostility to the Union and the ideals of liberty proclaimed by its founders.

  • Victorian Parenting
    Victorian Parenting Motherhood In Titcomb’s Letters to Young People, Single and Married (New York: Charles Scribner, 1858) Josiah Gilbert Holland writes, “The foundation of our national character is laid by the mothers of the nation.” And he argues that “a woman’s life is directed to the role of motherhood.” Two years later, Godey’s Lady’s Book claimed that motherhood was the most “striking and beautiful” aspect of the female character providing “the fulfillment of a woman’s physiological and moral destiny.” Social critics were becoming concerned about the drop in birth rate and the influx of European immigrants which threatened the stability of the existing social order. Consequently, motherhood was promoted among Victorian women to insure the ‘good native stock ‘ of white Anglo-Saxon Protestant Americans. Children began to be seen as the key to the future. By the early 1800s, the Post-Enlightenment preached optimism on the good nature and ‘trainability’ of children. That cultural shift, along with technological advancements in the printing press, resulted in a number of popular books on childrearing which established a new view on a mother’s responsibility to her children. Maria’s Advice Please note: quotes appear here as written in the letters, including original spelling and grammar Being Home Sick ~ October 1859 letter to Emeline,Maria writes: “We feel as badly to be separated from you as you do, but it is our duty to submit cheerfully to whatever we think is for our best good.” Proper conduct ~ January 1859 “I hope you will not

  • Tough Bucking for the Busiest Woman on the Rodeo Circuit by Lee Allen
    MEDIA CONTACTS: Perse Hooper, [email protected], 858-337-6404 Donna Hoyt, [email protected], 406-338-7684 Website: www.infr.org Tough Bucking for the Busiest Woman on the Rodeo Circuit by Lee Allen Charmaine “Bull Girl” Brannan, Chukchansi tribe, feeds her livestock in Lewiston, Montana. She is the only female livestock provider for the Indian National Finals Rodeo. Charmaine “Bull Girl” Brannan ranks at the top of her field -- she’s the only female livestock provider for the Indian National Finals Rodeo. “I’m insanely busy, the busiest woman in this business, ” she told ICTMN. At 5’4” tall, she often gets lost in the shadow of the 2,000-pound bulls she raises for rodeo. “I’ve been told that God protects children and fools, and I’m no longer a kid,” she said. “But a lot of things rely on me to stay healthy, and if I don’t show up with a hay bale, even in the middle of a Montana snowstorm, the livestock don’t eat that night. “I wouldn’t call my bulls ‘pets’ in the domestic sense of the word, but they’re like family to me; and they’ll live out their life with me. I feed my livestock every day by hand and I’m alone with them a lot of the time, so I talk to them frequently because they’re good company. I can find solace and a feeling of serenity when I’m with them. ” Brannan, a member of the Chukchansi tribe, was raised in a tiny California town and grew up in a 100-year-old cabin where her logging family was no stranger to hard work.
