We^Ern Reserve of Ohio and Some of Its Pioneers Places and Women's Clubs 19L4 Press Oi Euclid Printinflr Company Clevdjand THE We^ern Reserve of Ohio and Some of Its Pioneers Places and Women's Clubs 19L4 Press oi Euclid Printinflr Company ClevdJand HIS book is affectionately dedicated to my husband. He gave to me a house and lot when he gave one to our daugh­ ter, the week of her marriage. In the improving of this property and getting good tenents, it prepared me for such work when left a widow; it also made life bright by giving me a separate bank account to draw upon for books, pic­ tures, to go to conventions, or on short tours of travel; it brought fresh life and vigor to the iaxnily; the children had magazines and papers suited to their age. We were all comrades in this partnership. Mrs. William G. Rose k. 0 N U z H O B H K INTRODUCTION In the writing of this book we would like to have given honor to many women in the city. First,.

ROSE GENEALOGY OF THE PARMELEES In the Lenox Library in New York no book gave so many details as that of our fello% townsman, C. C. Baldwin, one of the trj^tees of Cleveland Historical Society. We also have some data gathered by Charles Parmelee, once teacher at Gambier, Ohio. Madam Rose Pai'mlin (pronounced Parmly) of Lausanne, Switzerland, widow of Alexander Parmlin, says: The Parmlins came from Barseus of Gilly Borsol Canton, Switzerland. They exist there now. They are in the Tyrol and Holland. A Bel­ gium prince named Maurice Van Parmlin in 1557 fled to Hoi-. land to escape the persecutions of the Duke of Alba. Afterward came to Batavia, New York, and purchased large grants of land and founded a family who are there now. The Parmelees married the Baldwins three or four different times and therefore the Baldwin record is of great interest. The late C. C. Baldwin's book has the following: The Baldwins were in England as early as 679 A. D. The Earl of Flanders, cotemporary with Alfred the Great, whose son Baldwin 2d married Elizabeth of Alfred, to Baldwin 6th, who married the daughter of Robert of France. Baldwin, Emperor of the East in 1239, son of Baldwin, Earl of Devonshire, was the first to rebel against Steven. Baldwin means bold winner or speedy winner of a domain, where the name stands for border or garden. Surnames were not used in England until after the Conquest, but were superadded to the Christian names. John Baldwin was rector of London from 1441 to 1445. Sir John Baldwin was Chief Justice of Common Pleas Court of England from 1536 to 1546, the year of his death. His mother was Dorner, whose family came to earldom. His sister, Eliz­ abeth, married Lord Herbert, Marquis of Worcester 12 The Western Reserve oj Ohio and Some of King Htory the Eighth made estates to John Baldwin, rector of Lincoln, Commissioner of Peace, who was Lord Manor of Anglesea. Richard, his brother, and John were the ancestors of the Baldwins in America. The Parmelees were descendants of John Parmlin, senior, of Guilford, Ct., 1639. He had four sons and three daughters. His son, John, was probably born in England; His daughter, Elizabeth, married John Everett; Mary married Dennis Comp- ton and Hannah, John Johnson, of New Haven, Ct. John Parmlin, junior, had three wives, Rebecca, "Widow" Plane and Hannah. Nathaniel was the son of the first wife; the widow died within a year. Hannah had seven boys and two girls. Stephen, the fifth son, married Elizabeth Baldwin, of Millford, Ct. Isaac (my forefather) married Elizabeth Howland in 1689. Of.their nine children, Elizabeth married Nathaniel Baldwin, 1718^ afterward Deacon Nathaniel Baldwin, of Litchfield, Ct. He was one of four sons who removed to New Haven. Abrain Parmelee, son of Isaac, born in Guilford, married Mary Bishop, and his son, Abram, junior, married Maty Stanley', the mother of Captain Theodore Pannelee, of Goshen, Ct. Captain Parmelee married Kezia Hudson, daughter of David Hudson, senior, and mother of David Hudson, junior, who settled on the Western Reserve in 1811'in the town of Hudson. Guilford is sixteen miles from New Haven. In 1750 mem­ bers went to Stockbridge, Mass., and others to Goshen, Ct. Nathaniel gave land to his daughter, Elizabeth, who had mar­ ried Stephen Parmelee, June 7,1773. Nathaniel Baldwin, born in-Guilford, November 28, 1693, married Elizabeth Parmlee, daughter .of Isaac Parmlee, of Guil­ ford. He was a deacon; he bid three,shares of land in Goshen, July 14, 1736. He was made treasurer and in laying out a town was asso- Its Pioneers, Plates and Women's Clubs l.-? elated with his son-in-law, Ebenezer Norton.

Bonham Philanthropy is an important facet in communities around the world. It is a practice that provides many important services that may not exist if it were not for the generosity of others who donate their time and money. This paper will be focusing exclusively on monetary forms of philanthropy. Philanthropy exists in many different forms and is motivated in many different ways. It comes from the wealthiest of individuals to the most financially challenged of people. This paper explores what philanthropy is, the different types of philanthropy, and motivations for philanthropy. It will cover information about some of the most famous of givers. It then will make a local connection by talking about the Philanthropists for Eau Claire, their lives, and the benefits received by their donations. 3 Introduction The City of Eau Claire is filled with buildings and places dedicated to individuals.

The time-frame has been selected for two reasons: (1) actresses active after 1870 have been the subject of several dissertations and scholarly studies, while relatively little research has been completed on women active on the American stage prior to 1870, and (2) prior to 1850 there was limited theatre activity in this country and very few professional actresses. A general description of mid-nineteenth-century theatre and its social context is provided, including a summary of major developments in theatre in New York and other cities from 1850 to 1870, discussions of the star system, the combination company, and the mid-century audience.

  • Living a Faith Rooted in God's Love
    Rooted in Love Living a Faith Rooted in God’s Love First Congregational Church of Hudson: Living A Faith Rooted in God’s Love Do and dare for Christ. David Hudson made this pledge in 1798 while living in Goshen, Connecticut. A year later, that commitment would drive him to go West to the Connecticut Western Reserve, so he could form a true Christian community and church—a place firmly rooted in love—which came to fruition in the founding of the Hudson Church in 1802 and what would become Hudson, Ohio. Do and dare for Christ. To be rooted in love, a love driven by faith and lived out in relationship. This is the foundation, history, and legacy of our Church community. For nearly 220 years, the people of First Congregational Church of Hudson have time and time again acted out of faith-filled care and concern toward neighbors near and far, further rooting ourselves in the love of Christ and shining God’s Light far into the world. Each generation has taken up the mantle of living faithfully in Christ’s name, continuing that tradition of love. In these pages, you’ll see the arc of our congregational history that bends toward love, service, and justice—all through loving relationships. We hope this overview will inspire and encourage you as we continue to live as God’s people today rooted in that eternal, steadfast, holy love that sends us forth to do and dare for Christ each and every day, for neighbor and stranger alike. 1800-1950 1800-1865: CHUrCH iS FoUNded ANd SooN CoMMiTS To THe ABoliTioN oF SlAVerY 1802: Hudson Church formally founded (the first church in Summit County and the second in the Connecticut Western Reserve).

  • Common Place: Rereading 'Nation' in the Quoting Age, 1776-1860 Anitta
    Common Place: Rereading ‘Nation’ in the Quoting Age, 1776-1860 Anitta C. Santiago Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2014 © 2014 Anitta C. Santiago All rights reserved ABSTRACT Common Place: Rereading ‘Nation’ in the Quoting Age, 1776-1860 Anitta C. Santiago This dissertation examines quotation specifically, and intertextuality more generally, in the development of American/literary culture from the birth of the republic through the Civil War. This period, already known for its preoccupation with national unification and the development of a self-reliant national literature, was also a period of quotation, reprinting and copying. Within the analogy of literature and nation characterizing the rhetoric of the period, I translate the transtextual figure of quotation as a protean form that sheds a critical light on the nationalist project. This project follows both how texts move (transnational migration) and how they settle into place (national naturalization). Combining a theoretical mapping of how texts move and transform intertextually and a book historical mapping of how texts move and transform materially, I trace nineteenth century examples of the culture of quotation and how its literary mutability both disrupts and participates in the period’s national and literary movements. In the first chapter, I engage scholarship on republican print culture and on republican emulation to interrogate the literary roots of American nationalism in its transatlantic context. Looking at commonplace books, autobiographies, morality tales, and histories, I examine how quotation as a practice of memory impression functions in national re-membering.

  • Early Settlement of Cleveland
    Early Settlement of Cleveland In 1796 General Moses Cleaveland, following instructions from the Connecticut Land Company, selected the site of the "capital" city for the Western Reserve-midway between the eastern (Pennsylvania line) and the western (Sandusky Bay) boundaries of the Reserve, where the Cuyahoga River flows into Lake Erie. Cleaveland hoped the "city" might some day rival in population his native town of Wyndham, Connecticut (population then: 2,700). Within four decades, Cleveland fulfilled Cleaveland's prophecy. The first four families (the Gunds, Carters, Hawleys and Kingsburys) settled on the surveyed site in 1797. Fourteen years later, in 1811, the place contained only 18 families, an average increase of one new family each year. Conditions and circumstances conspired to produce such limited development. Fever and ague destroyed some settlers' health and led others to seek towns of higher elevations. Unlike some Reserve settle- ments-David Hudson's town of Hudson, for example-no proprietor (member of the Connecticut Land Company) chose to settle at, or become interested in developing, early Cleveland. Families that might otherwise have become residents feared the Indian frontier (literally, for a time, across the Cuyahoga River), selecting instead towns closer to Pennsylvania. For all these reasons, the place grew very slowly. In 1820, thirteen other Western Reserve towns outranked Cleveland's population of 606. In time, of course, all this changed. Walk-in-the-Water, the first steamboat on Lake Erie, stopped at Cleveland on its 1818 maiden voyage, signalling the future significance of the port of Cleveland. That future was startlingly demonstrated after 1825 with the opening of the Erie Canal and, even more so, in 1827 when the Cleveland-Akron segment of the Ohio and Erie Canal was finished.

    “A New Woman in Old Fashioned Times”: Party Women and the Rhetorical Foundations of Political Womanhood A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF THE GRADUATE SCHOOL THE UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA BY Emily Ann Berg Paup IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Karlyn Kohrs Campbell, Advisor December 2012 © Emily Ann Berg Paup 2012 i Acknowledgments My favorite childhood author, Louis May Alcott, once wrote: “We all have our own life to pursue, our own kind of dream to be weaving, and we all have the power to make wishes come true, as long as we keep believing.” These words have guided me through much of my life as I have found a love of learning, a passion for teaching, and an appreciation for women who paved the way so that I might celebrate my successes. I would like to acknowledge those who have aided in my journey, helped to keep me believing, and molded me into the scholar that I am today. I need to begin by acknowledging those who led me to want to pursue a career in higher education in the first place. Dr. Bonnie Jefferson’s The Rhetorical Tradition was the first class that I walked into during my undergraduate years at Boston College. She made me fall in love with the history of U.S. public discourse and the study of rhetorical criticism. Ever since the fall of 2002, Bonnie has been a trusted colleague and friend who showed me what a passion for learning and teaching looked like. Dr.

  • Little York - Part 1
    LITTLE YORK - PART 1 A HISTORY OF THE WESTERN RESERVE, AND GIRLHOOD MEMORIES OF NORTHFIELD AND MACEDONIA BY CLEO LEACH KINGZETT 1 THE WESTERN RESERVE is now a part of northeastern Ohio; it is about the size of New Jersey. It had been granted to Connecticut in 1796 and contained 1+ million acres; it was surveyed into townships 5 miles square and appropriately called Little Connecticut One history states that a Daniel Holbrook was one of the original partners of the Connecticut Land Company which bought the Reserve from old Connecticut at a price of approximately 33 cents per acre. The charming little villages with their greens little white churches with New England spires, town halls, and Connecticut houses may still be found in such towns as Hudson ,LeRoy, Streetsboro, Twinsburg, Northfield and Tallmadge, to name only a few them. But all of these little towns are fast becoming metropolitan areas. Picture at left is one of these little churches as it stands today, at Tallmadge, Ohio (about 15 miles southeast of Northfield); a very beautiful sight on the village green, surrounded by a circle of roads on which the traffic moves in an unending stream, and very fast; with no traffic light to give the pedestrian a break. I know, as I took this picture one afternoon, about 4 o'clock. It has been said that while Connecticut created Western Reserve, Pioneers from Vermont, New Hampshire and Massachusetts settled it. New England settlers came, bringing their institutions and traditions with them. In 1796 Moses Cleveland** headed a party of fifty-two persons (including two women) whose task it was 1to survey the Reserve.
