Trip to Australia March 4 to April 3, 2014
TRIP TO AUSTRALIA MARCH 4 TO APRIL 3, 2014 We timed this trip so that we'd be in Australia at the beginning of their fall season, reasoning that had we come two months earlier we would have experienced some of the most brutal summer weather that the continent had ever known. Temperatures over 40°C (104°F) were common in the cities that we planned to visit: Sydney (in New South Wales), Melbourne* (in Victoria), and Adelaide (in South Australia); and _____________________________________________________________ *Melbourne, for example, had a high of 47°C (117°F) on January 21; and several cities in the interior regions of NSW, Vic, and SA had temperatures of about 50°C (122°F) during Decem ber-January. _______________________________________________________________ there were dangerous brush fires not far from populated areas. As it turned out, we were quite fortunate: typical daily highs were around 25°C (although Adelaide soared to 33°C several days after we left it) and there were only a couple of days of rain. In m y earlier travelogs, I paid tribute to m y wife for her brilliant planning of our journey. So it was this time as well. In the months leading up to our departure, we (i.e., Lee) did yeoman (yeowoman? yo, woman?) work in these areas: (1) deciding which regions of Australia to visit; (2) scouring web sites, in consultation with the travel agency Southern Crossings, for suitable lodging; (3) negotiating with Southern Crossings (with the assistance of Stefan Bisciglia of Specialty Cruise and Villas, a fam ily-run travel agency in Gig Harbor) concerning city and country tours, tickets to events, advice on sights, etc.; and (4) reading several web sites and travel books. -

Ireland: an Island of Cultural Variety
1 INTRODUCTION IRELAND: AN ISLAND OF CULTURAL VARIETY Throughout its history, Ulster, the northern province of Ireland, has been a place where many different peoples have left their influence. In the last millennium Vikings, Anglo-Normans, Huguenots, Moravians, Italians, Jews and many others have settled here. The strongest cultural influences, however, have been English, Irish and Scottish, a triple blend that has given Ulster its distinctive character. At the narrowest part, only 13 miles separate Ulster – Ireland’s northern province – and Scotland. The sea has been a bridge rather than a barrier. Almost 2 million people make the crossing by ferry every year. THREE NAMES FOR THE SAME PEOPLE Ulster-Scots, Scotch-Irish and Scots-Irish are three names for a people whose origins can be traced to Scotland. In Ulster, where they settled in large numbers in the 1600s, they are known as the Ulster-Scots. In America, they are known as the Scotch-Irish or Scots-Irish. All three terms have a long pedigree – the earliest recorded use of ‘Scotch-Irish’ can be found in Maryland in 1690. THE SCOTCH-IRISH AND AMERICA Over the centuries Scotch-Irish families have travelled to every corner of the globe in search of new lives and new opportunities. In the United States their influence has been huge and their legacy includes pioneers, presidents, military commanders, religious leaders, educators, philanthropists Only two names appear on the printed Declaration of Independence. and giants of industry and commerce. John Hancock is thought to have had County Down ancestry, while Charles Thomson was born in County Londonderry. -

A Genealogical History of the Wright Family by Nick Engler
A Genealogical History of the Wright Family By Nick Engler Bishop Milton Wright was a dedicated genealogist who boasted that he could trace his lineage back eleven generations to “his great-grandfather’s great grandfather,” Sir John Wright, Lord of Kelvedon Hall in Essex County, England, born 1485, died 1551. And the Bishop had cause to be proud. In the days before the Internet and the massive online collections of family records that are available to us in the twenty-first century, genealogical research depended on notes kept in a family Bible, hints from family letters and oral traditions, and correspondence with far-away clerics and government officials who often had better things to do than answer a query about a long-dead parishioner or citizen. For Milton to trace his family back through four centuries and across two continents was a singular accomplishment in his day. Today we know a great deal more about the Wright lineage; more than the Bishop could ever have imagined. Because the Internet provides a way for far-flung people to instantly share information, genealogical and biographical information accumulates quickly. In Milton’s day there was a trickle of information, today there is a flood. The problem becomes not whether we can find information about an ancestor, but whether we can trust it. The river of digital information that flows around us is full of tall tales, half-truths, and downright lies. All information must be carefully winnowed to separate the facts from the fictions. Consequently, genealogy today is not just a quest but a science. -
Murder and Mayhem: How the Creek Murders Affected British Policy on Indian Affairs in Georgia During the American Revolution
Journal of Backcountry Studies Murder and Mayhem: How the Creek Murders Affected British Policy on Indian Affairs in Georgia during the American Revolution BY KELSEY GRIFFIN On that infamous date of December 16, 1773 a group of disgruntled Whigs disguised as Native Americans protested the tax on British tea by quietly dumping boxes of the precious commodity into the dark and gloomy waters of Boston Harbor. The incident, which came to be known as the Boston Tea Party, has received a great deal of attention by historians of the Revolution as it inaugurated a year of heightened tension between the rebel colonists and the British administration. More precisely, it prompted the passage of the Coercive or “Intolerable” Acts in Massachusetts Bay. As significant as these turns of events are, when historians focus too much of their attention on the vicinity of New England, they miss a significant part of the pre-Revolutionary story. Less than ten days after the famed Boston Tea Party transpired, another dramatic incident unfolded further South—one which greatly attenuated America’s already estranged relationship with the Crown, thereby pushing the colonies one step closer to Independence. December 25, 1773. A hunting party of six Creek Indians from the Lower Creek town of Coweta attacked and murdered a man named William White and his family at their new settlement on the Ogeechee River in the colony of Georgia. Less than one month later, a larger party of about twenty Coweta Creek Indians conducted a second raid. This time, the roving band killed a man named Shirrol along with four other white males and two black slaves. -
Livery Committee
The Worshipful Society of Apothecaries of London Livery Committee A visit to the Secret Nuclear Bunker at Kelvedon Hatch with guided tour and lunch Thursday 21st May 2020 The Secret Nuclear Bunker at Kelvedon Hatch, in Essex, is a large underground bunker used during the Cold War as a Regional Government Headquarters. Since being decommissioned in 1992, the bunker has been open to the public as a tourist attraction, with a museum focusing on its Cold War history. Built in 1952–53 as part of ROTOR, a program to improve and harden Britain’s air defence network, the bunker was originally a Sector Operations Centre (SOC), meant to provide command and control of the London Sector of the RAF Fighter Command. The bunker was able to hold hundreds of military and civilian personnel sustaining them for up to three months while they would be tasked to organize the survival of the population and continue government operations. The location had to be off the main road, behind fields and forests, to prevent civilians from finding it. The bunker is built 38 metres underground, and the entrance is through what appears to be an ordinary looking bungalow set amongst trees. Once in the bungalow, a 90-metre long tunnel leads down to the bunker’s lowest floor. Above are two more floors, the “hill” which covers it, and a radio mast. The bunker was eventually decommissioned in the early 1990s after the fall of the Soviet Union, when the nuclear threat was seen to have diminished. The bunker was turned into a museum and the land was sold back to the family that had originally owned it in the 1950s. -
