We would like to have a chairman from each state to work on membership and other needs of family members. If you would like to serve please contact me at the address listed under the Directors. Currently we have three chairmen, Bill Yarbrough, North Carolina, Arlene Weidenger, Missouri and Barbara Blanton: Mississippi.

There have, not unexpectedly, been considerable archival losses too, as some later vacancy inventories at York make clear: the Durham sede vacante register of Alexander Neville (1381) and accompanying visitation records; the York sede vacante register after Neville’s own translation in 1388; the register of Thomas Arundel (only the register of his vicars-general survives today), and the register of Robert Waldby (likewise only his vicar-general’s register is now extant) have all long disappeared.1 Some of these would also have included records of ordinations, now missing from the chronological sequence.

  • Twisted Trails of the Wold West by Matthew Baugh © 2006
    Twisted Trails of the Wold West By Matthew Baugh © 2006 The Old West was an interesting place, and even more so in the Wold- Newton Universe. Until fairly recently only a few of the heroes and villains who inhabited the early western United States had been confirmed through crossover stories as existing in the WNU. Several comic book miniseries have done a lot to change this, and though there are some problems fitting each into the tapestry of the WNU, it has been worth the effort. Marvel Comics’ miniseries, Rawhide Kid: Slap Leather was a humorous storyline, parodying the Kid’s established image and lampooning westerns in general. It is best known for ‘outing’ the Kid as a homosexual. While that assertion remains an open issue with fans, it isn’t what causes the problems with incorporating the story into the WNU. What is of more concern are the blatant anachronisms and impossibilities the story offers. We can accept it, but only with the caveat that some of the details have been distorted for comic effect. When the Rawhide Kid is established as a character in the Wold-Newton Universe he provides links to a number of other western characters, both from the Marvel Universe and from classic western novels and movies. It draws in the Marvel Comics series’ Blaze of Glory, Apache Skies, and Sunset Riders as wall as DC Comics’ The Kents. As with most Marvel and DC characters there is the problem with bringing in the mammoth superhero continuities of the Marvel and DC universes, though this is not insurmountable.

  • North East Lincolnshire's Historic Settlement Archaeological
    North East Lincolnshire’s Historic Settlement Archaeological Consultation Areas Introduction This document is intended to act as an explanation of the archaeological consultation areas based upon historic settlement cores used within the planning system. There are 33 known and located historic settlements within the modern Borough, all of which will have some form of archaeological deposit still present. However in some areas disturbance by modern development, along with there being little land left to build on, means that it is unlikely that any deposits of significance will be disturbed during normal building works. Both the settlement areas, or cores, are shown in map format along with the areas where the archaeological officer will be consulted on planning applications. These settlements date back to at least the medieval period (11th to 16th centuries) although most have earlier origins. They will all contain archaeological deposits of some kind which are important for understanding the growth and development of the towns and villages of the area, as well as feeding into regional and national data. Brief etymological, geographical, geological and morphological descriptions are given for each parish and the settlements within them where they are known. This information is based upon various sources listed at the end of this document. A very brief description of the archaeological character of each settlement is then given, based upon prior work in the settlement itself, or by comparison with similar settlements if little or no work has been carried out in the settlement itself. Methodology Mapping - The areas of known settlement were mapped as MapInfo Tab files using the Ordnance Survey 1st edition maps of 1887-9 as a basis.

    Old Blandford Church, Petersburg, Virginia {Richard Yarborough’s grave marker is bottom center, above.} Master Index – Part I (Aaron – McClanahan) Leonard Yarbrough, Editor May 2017 Published by The Yarbrough National Genealogical & Historical Association, Inc. © Yarbrough National Genealogical & Historical Association, Inc. 2017. About the Index The indices for both the scanned and archived volumes were created by TExtract®, a software package used by commercial book and document publishers. Among its many features is the ability to merge the individual chapter/volume indices into a composite master index. It is not, of course, an error-free software package, especially when the print quality of the original documents is poor. Nevertheless, the resulting indices are mostly error-free, with the exception of page numbering. The given page numbers in the indices refer to the actual “page count” number, not the number that may appear on a given page. In most instances, copying the name or term listed in the Index and pasting it into the search field (evoked by pressing CTRL + F) within the index file will find the page(s) where it appears. All the volumes of The Blandford Series of Yarbrough Family Records are searchable, to the extent permitted by the quality of the original material. There are many names that appear to be corrupted/mis-spelled in the original documents. To the extent that it was possible to correct these names, this was done. However, many were essentially indecipherable, so they have been left as the indexing software rendered them.

  • Crusade of the Blue Banner in Colorado
    Crusade of the Blue Banner in Colorado BY NORMAN J. BENDER The extension of the Presbyterian church from a well­ established stronghold in the eastern United States into a western frontier environment caused concern and apprehension among leaders of the church. Dread of emancipation from tra­ ditional regulation invoked visions of schismatic revolt caused by the democratic influence of frontier conditions. This fear of splintering was exaggerated and cannot be supported by a realistic appraisal of the frontier situation. For example, although early Colorado Presbyterians did grasp initially at temporary expedients to satisfy limitations of physical sur­ roundings and migratory leadership, their customary regard for church authority and ritual was only lying dormant, ready to be reawakened by the introduction of old associations. The Presbyterian church became a symbol of conservative stability among many community efforts to emulate eastern prototypes. Following a brief review of early historical background of this church in Colorado and the Rocky Mountains, the interests and goals of Presbyterian pioneers in the area will be examined to provide evidence of this desire for continuity of traditional customs.1 On June 11, 1859, the Reverend Lewis Hamilton arrived in Denver and preached in an unfinished building on the follow­ ing Sabbath. Because of his health his congregation at Lima, Indiana, had given him a six months' vacation with full pay to convalesce in the mountains. Hamilton, who is regarded as the pioneer minister of the Presbyterian church in Colorado, also preached in the mining camps adjacent to Denver but made no effort to organize a church.2 1 The term "frontier," when used alone in this paper, refers to the region broadly defined as the Rocky Mountain West.

  • Alvingham Priory and Welton Le Wold - a Keyhole Into History
    Alvingham Priory and Welton le Wold - a Keyhole into History researched by Christopher North So many local history books give tiny pieces of information about a certain event or an episode of local interest and then move on. The reader thinks, 'That's nice' and also moves on, because they are not given enough information to be able to consider the significance of this in historical terms or what it meant to the people living at the time. These become like keyholes into history, visions down a long tube into the distant past, when people spoke and thought quite differently from us. These keyholes sit in marooned isolation on the page, quite disconnected from other snippets of a community's local history. The consequence is that readers are left without any deep understanding of what was going on. Can we insert the right key and open the whole door? Take for example a reference in the Victoria County History of Lincoln, vol. 2, pages 192-4. This is a reputable book, but in the entry for Alvingham priory one statement sits alone :- “In 1428 the prior of Alvingham held a quarter of a knight's fee in Welton.” We either read it and move on, or, in seeking a proper understanding, we stop to ask a lot of questions. 'What was the priory of Alvingham, where was it and why did it have an obligation of a quarter of a knight's fee, whatever that was and who was to receive it?' Alvingham Priory – a member of a Lincolnshire monastic order Now, that is a surprise.

  • Rural Settlement, Lifestyles and Social Change in the Later First Millennium AD: Anglo-Saxon Flixborough in Its Wider Context Ii
    4 RURAL SETTLEMENT, LIFESTYLES RURAL SETTLEMENT AND SOCIAL CHANGE IN THE LATER FIRST MILLENNIUM AD Anglo-Saxon Flixborough in its Wider Context RURAL SETTLEMENT, Between 1989 and 1991, excavations adjacent to the abandoned medieval settlement of North Conesby, in the parish of Flixborough, North Lincolnshire, unearthed remains of an Anglo-Saxon settlement LIFESTYLES AND SOCIAL associated with one of the largest collections of artefacts and animal bones yet found on such a site. The Anglo-Saxon settlement was situated on a belt of windblown sand, overlooking the floodplain of the River Trent, eight kilometres south of the Humber estuary. Analysis has demonstrated that the excavated CHANGE part of the settlement was occupied, or used for settlement-related activity, throughout what have been termed the ‘Mid’ and ‘Late’ Anglo-Saxon periods. In an unprecedented occupation sequence from an , LIFESTYLES AND SOCIAL CHANGE Anglo-Saxon rural settlement, six main periods of occupation have been identified, with additional sub- phases, dating from the seventh to the early eleventh centuries; with a further period of activity, between IN THE LATER FIRST MILLENNIUM AD the twelfth and fifteenth centuries AD. Anglo-Saxon Flixborough in its Wider Context The publication of the remains of the Anglo-Saxon settlement is achieved in four volumes, and will be supported by an extensive archive on the Archaeological Data Service (ADS) for the United Kingdom. The excavation, post-excavation analysis and publication phases of the project have been funded principally by English Heritage, and the project has been run through the Humberside Archaeology Unit and its successor, the Humber Archaeology Partnership.
