Choral Evensong
CHORAL EVENSONG 5:00 P.M. SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 5, 2017 THE FIFTH SUNDAY AFTER EPIPHANY CHRIST CHURCH 118 N. Washington St. Alexandria, VA 22314 www.HistoricChristChurch.org CHORAL EVENSONG is the service of Evening Prayer with choral music. It is sung in cathedrals with choral foundations on a more or less daily basis, and in many parish churches around the world. The Prayer Book of 1662 established the pattern for Choral Evensong which remains in common usage throughout the worldwide Anglican Communion. Since the earliest Christian times, the need to mark the passing of time with prayer has been recognized. The monastic cycle of prayer began in the desert with Anthony in the fourth century and continues to this day. By the Reformation, Vespers had become an elaborate musical celebration in the evening. The English Reformation demanded that the vernacular be the language of worship and resulted in the liturgical simplicity of Thomas Cranmer’s services of Morning and Evening Prayer. The provision of music for this structure and these words was the task of men like Tallis, Byrd, Gibbons, and Tomkins, whose creativity laid the foundations of Anglican choral worship. Choral Evensong is the quintessence of such worship. The canon of music for Evensong continues to grow, with composers from around the world contributing to it. Unlike the Eucharist, which follows the movement of the Church calendar, and unlike private prayer, which follows the events of our lives, the daily office follows its own rhythm. The readings are done “in course,” and are not specifically chosen to make a particular point, and the canticles (Magnificat and Nunc dimittis) are the same each day. -

Cemeteries by Location by Nancy Protected
CEMETERIES OF MCNAIRY COUNTY COMPILED BY NANCY WARDLOW KENNEDY This has been a ‘when I can find time to work on it,’ project for about four years now. I am sure many errors are in this book because of several factors: 1. Much of this information was given to me verbally. 2. Cemetery names are remembered differently by different people. Example: A little cemetery in my neighborhood of my youth was called Chenault. There is only one Chenault buried there - Naricusus Richards Chenault. It is actually the Richards Cemetery, the family of John Richards. 3. Since this project took so long, some of the data was lost and a file on the computer was distorted and was never fully regained. The project needed to be finished, errors and all. Hopefully this will be a work in progress and people are welcome to add comments or additions. Thanks to Albert Brown and Harold Cox for their cemetery transcriptions which was referred to many times. I wish to thank the many, many people that helped with this project. The numerous people I talked with for information and those wonderful people from the county and the internet that contacted me with information and made this a delightful project. Thanks to Helen King and Dorothy Smith clerks in the McNairy County Records Room for their help in this project over the years and also Nancy McClain for going with me to visit many cemeteries and Pat Jones Blanton for listening to me all the time.

KINGSWINFORD (Inc
HITCHMOUGH’S BLACK COUNTRY PUBS KINGSWINFORD (Inc. Himley, Wall Heath) 3rd. Edition - © 2015 Tony Hitchmough. All Rights Reserved www.longpull.co.uk INTRODUCTION Well over 40 years ago, I began to notice that the English public house was more than just a building in which people drank. The customers talked and played, held trips and meetings, the licensees had their own stories, and the buildings had experienced many changes. These thoughts spurred me on to find out more. Obviously I had to restrict my field; Black Country pubs became my theme, because that is where I lived and worked. Many of the pubs I remembered from the late 1960’s, when I was legally allowed to drink in them, had disappeared or were in the process of doing so. My plan was to collect any information I could from any sources available. Around that time the Black Country Bugle first appeared; I have never missed an issue, and have found the contents and letters invaluable. I then started to visit the archives of the Black Country boroughs. Directories were another invaluable source for licensees’ names, enabling me to build up lists. The censuses, church registers and licensing minutes for some areas, also were consulted. Newspaper articles provided many items of human interest (eg. inquests, crimes, civic matters, industrial relations), which would be of value not only to a pub historian, but to local and social historians and genealogists alike. With the advances in technology in mind, I decided the opportunity of releasing my entire archive digitally, rather than mere selections as magazine articles or as a book, was too good to miss. -

Thomas Harris, MD^ Naval
Thomas Harris, M.D.^ Naval "Surgeon and Founder of. the First School of Naval Medicine in the New World Downloaded from https://academic.oup.com/jhmas/article/V/Summer/236/685391 by guest on 29 September 2021 LOUIS H. RODDIS* HOMAS HARRIS, a naval surgeon of the first half of the nineteenth Tcentury, is a relatively unknown name in the history of American medicine, yet he had a most distinguished career. He was a surgeon of national reputation who operated upon President Jackson; he became ad- ministrative head of the Medical Department of the Navy, the office corre- sponding to the present title of Surgeon General; and he established the first school of naval medicine in the United States and, indeed, in the Americas. He maintained this school practically by his own efforts for over twenty years, and while it was eventually closed for lack of funds, it was the forerunner of the present Naval Medical School at the National Naval Medical Center, Bethesda, Maryland. Thomas Harris was born in East Whiteland, Chester County, Penn- sylvania, on January 3, 1784. He came of fine old colonial stock and his immediate ancestors were by no means undistinguished. His father, Briga- dier General William Harris of the Pennsylvania Militia, served in the Revolutionary War and the Whiskey Rebellion and died at the beginning of the War of 1812. He was a farmer of East Whiteland, had served in the State Legislature, and was an Elder of the Presbyterian Church. Harris' mother was Mary Campbell, daughter of the Reverend John Campbell, a Presbyterian clergyman. -
Part I -- the Ancestry Chapter I
PART I -- THE ANCESTRY CHAPTER I THE HARRIS-WINN LINES The Harris Family In England And The Early Colonies The name Harris is quite common in several sections of England, especially in Kent, Essex, Somerset, and Gloucester counties or shires. Many of that name in the last two counties named are largely of Welsh extraction, as they border on southeastern Wales; among these the name is frequently spelled differently. As all the sections named are con- tiguous to seaports they contributed liberally to the early settlement of America, particularly in Virginia and the Carolinas. As a matter-of-fact statement and not at all as a boast, it should be said that while found in almost every station in life, many of the Harris name have occupied prominent places in England. Burke’s Encyclopedia of English Heraldry gives notices of thirty-four different coats of arms granted at various times to persons of that name. Porter, the genealogist, gives that of the America-Virginia Arms: Argent, a lion rampant; over all a chevron ermine. Crest, a falcon with outstretched wings. But this is given simply as a matter of history. In our American Democracy there is no place for heraldry; and except for the value of inherited traits it makes little difference whether an ancestor came to America with wealth and a title, paid his passage with money or as a hired servant, or had her way paid with a bundle of dried tobacco! Owing to the great frequency of the name, all attempts to trace the ancestry back of the father, Thomas, of our immigrant ancestor, John Harris, were early abandoned. -
Record of the Harris Family Descended from John Harris, Born in 1680 in Wiltshire, England
illllllliiiiiiiiiii BRiOMAM YOUf-SG UNIVW PROVO, UTAH Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from Brigham Young University http://www.archive.org/details/recordofharrisfaOObyuharr QMS- * ^ RECORD THE HAERIS FAMILY DESCENDED FROM JOHN HARRIS BORN 1680 WILTSHIRE, ENGLAND PHILADELPHIA 1903 PRESS OF GEORGE F. LASHER PHILADELPHIA PROVO, UTAH PEEFACE. In 1898, when I did not know that I should ever have the leisure requisite to put into shape the genealogical material that has been accumulating in my hands during the last thirty years, I printed some notes on the ancestry of my children, thinking that they would at least furnish a clue to anyone who might hereafter become interested in the subject of the history of any of the families whose career is therein sketched, and might desire to make it the subject of a further study. The leisure which I then lacked has since come to me, and has enabled me to prepare a more complete account than is contained in the earlier book, of that branch of the Harris family which is descended from John Harris, born about 1680, in Wiltshire, England, through his two sons, John and Thomas, born, respectively, in 1717 and 1722. No record such as this can justly claim completeness or perfect accuracy. In the course of two hundred years some branches of a family stray away beyond recognition, and there are other branches, the members of which, who, though known, do not sympathize with the undertaking of making a family record, and will not, therefore, contribute their quota of information. And in many cases no accurate records have been kept, and the several accounts obtainable do not entirely harmonize.
