In Memoriam Esther Wigginton Howes 1903 1981 In Memoriam Esther Wigginton Howes 1903 ■ 1981 Devoted Citizen Beloved Teacher Constant Friend With the passing of Esther Howes there is a great empty space against the skies of Dennis. She has served the people of this town first as a teacher and advocate for our public schools. She was the binding force which helped the citizens of this town become the owners of the home of the first minister and man for whom the town was named. For many years she served as chairman of the Josiah Dennis Manse Committee and as a member of the Dennis Historic Commission. She taught us best as we should best be taught - by her example. Let us honor her memory by following her example of tireless, willing service to all that she loved, especially the Town of Dennis.

The Editor of the Souvenir has had occasion to remark in previous editions that each Legislature has some peculiar characteristic to distinguish it from all others It fell to the lot of the Legislature of 1898, for the first time in over 30 years, or the usuil span of a generation, to make war preparations and to discuss war measures. The breaking out of the war with Spain found our Legislature rjady to do its part promptly and patriotically. With absolute unanimity and no more delay than was necessary for the making of the proper motions and the sig- nature of the bill by Governor Wolcott, the whole transaction occupying less than half an hour, the war appropriation of half a million dollars was voted ; and in the Senate the enactment of the measure was greeted with three cheers. No partisan discussion but patriotic action marked every measure of similar import. But this Souvenir is not intended as a record of what was done.

  • Bushnell Family Genealogy, 1945
    BUSHNELL FAMILY GENEALOGY Ancestry and Posterity of FRANCIS BUSHNELL (1580 - 1646) of Horsham, England And Guilford, Connecticut Including Genealogical Notes of other Bushnell Families, whose connections with this branch of the family tree have not been determined. Compiled and written by George Eleazer Bushnell Nashville, Tennessee 1945 Bushnell Genealogy 1 The sudden and untimely death of the family historian, George Eleazer Bushnell, of Nashville, Tennessee, who devoted so many years to the completion of this work, necessitated a complete change in its publication plans and we were required to start anew without familiarity with his painstaking work and vast acquaintance amongst the members of the family. His manuscript, while well arranged, was not yet ready for printing. It has therefore been copied, recopied and edited, However, despite every effort, prepublication funds have not been secured to produce the kind of a book we desire and which Mr. Bushnell's painstaking work deserves. His material is too valuable to be lost in some library's manuscript collection. It is a faithful record of the Bushnell family, more complete than anyone could have anticipated. Time is running out and we have reluctantly decided to make the best use of available funds by producing the "book" by a process of photographic reproduction of the typewritten pages of the revised and edited manuscript. The only deviation from the original consists in slight rearrangement, minor corrections, additional indexing and numbering. We are proud to thus assist in the compiler's labor of love. We are most grateful to those prepublication subscribers listed below, whose faith and patience helped make George Eleazer Bushnell's book thus available to the Bushnell Family.

  • Seventh Generation
    Seventh Generation The seventh generation descendants of Richard include quite a few notable individuals. Samuel P May was not a descendant but was married to two Sears sisters(Nos. 2804 & 2808) and wrote the definitive work on Richard Sears' genealogy. This volume would not be possible without his remarkable efforts. Rev Edmund H Sears is a well known theologian and author of the words to "It Came Upon a Midnight Clear." He also wrote the first Sears Genealogy which was pointed out to contain many errors by Dr May. The Sears' Family Tree is based on Edmund's work and was created by Olive Sears(No. 2222). Sea captains abound and are the subject of many of May's anecdotes. Capt Joshua (No. 2516) the clipper ship captain and Capt Dean (No.2465) a packet captain are just two of the more well known seafarers. The sequence numbers of this generation range from No. 1811 to No. 3590. Their birth dates begin in 1774 (No. 1852) and go to 1856 (No. 3418). There are over 600 individuals with recorded children carried forward from the last generation. May had about 300 families in his seventh generation and we now list about 450 families with surname Sears. Children of this generation number 2200 and were born between 1800-1899. The largest families have 13 children (Nos. 2121, 3181, 3496). Two of the children from this generation have no recorded offspring and are not carried forward to the next chapter but should be noted. Jacob Sears (No.4325) is known for his philanthropy and the Jacob Sears Memorial Library in E Dennis, MA and Clara Endicott Sears (No.

  • A Souvenir of Massachusetts Legislators
    ^& A SOUVENIR OF afjfjacltusettj) J^cgislatorH 1896 VOLUME V. {Issued A>iiiii:il/y) . I A . M H R D G M A N STOUCiHTON, MASS. Copyrighted 1S96, by A. M. BRTDGMAN. TONE PRINT BY GEO. H. ELLIS, PRINTER, 141 FRANKLIN STREET, BOSTON .F-TONES FROM HJ8 ENGRAVING CO., 27 BOYLSTON STREET, BOSTON PREFACE. The Souvenir of 1S96 represents a Legislature that was called to deal with more iniportant questions than usual, and that had unusual experiences to meet. Never before in the memory of this generation, has a whole state been called upon to mourn for its chief executive, removed by death from his high office. The lamented Greenhalge, called away while in the midst of the work to which he was giving his best thoughts and noblest endeavors, was mourned sincerely by the whole state because he has been in the best sense the Governor of the whole state. The great question of better transportation facilities, which culminated in the Southern Union passenger station bill: and the Pipe Line bill, by which it was proposed to give the people of the state cheaper gas for fuel and illumination, were bills which, of themselves, would have justified the claim for a great public work accomplished. This was the Legislature also which sent to the people for judg- ment the resolve for biennial elections of members of the state government; and it also passed a bill fixing for the next ten years the lines for councillor and sen atorial districts, and allotted the number of representatives to each county for the same period.

Art Publishing Company, 18 Post Office Square, 132 Boylston Street. Boston. Mass 3s ?2 PREFACE. ~¥"N this souvenir volume an entirely new method lias been followed. The legislators who -*- have worked together are here grouped together. The chairman has been iriven the place of honor in the centre, with the House chairman on his right and the clerk on his left. The other members are then placed as in the committee arrangement. Fur evident reasons, how- ever, there is an occasional departure from this rule. The councillors and members of Congress are arranged in order by their districts. The aim of the editor has been to produce a book that should contain such matters of special interest as could not be found in any official publication. Therefore, whatever appears in the regular journals of either branch has been excluded, because this would be only a duplication. But here is given the personality of our legislators, as well as of other state officers. Here are their counterfeit presentment, their biography, and the fac-simile of their auto- graphs. All these make up the -man ; and here are the men who made laws for their state and helped make them for the nation in 1892.
