  • William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement
    Journal of Backcountry Studies EDITOR’S NOTE: This is the third and last installment of the author’s 1990 University of Maryland dissertation, directed by Professor Emory Evans, to be republished in JBS. Dr. Osborn is President of Pacific Union College. William Preston and the Revolutionary Settlement BY RICHARD OSBORN Patriot (1775-1778) Revolutions ultimately conclude with a large scale resolution in the major political, social, and economic issues raised by the upheaval. During the final two years of the American Revolution, William Preston struggled to anticipate and participate in the emerging American regime. For Preston, the American Revolution involved two challenges--Indians and Loyalists. The outcome of his struggles with both groups would help determine the results of the Revolution in Virginia. If Preston could keep the various Indian tribes subdued with minimal help from the rest of Virginia, then more Virginians would be free to join the American armies fighting the English. But if he was unsuccessful, Virginia would have to divert resources and manpower away from the broader colonial effort to its own protection. The other challenge represented an internal one. A large number of Loyalist neighbors continually tested Preston's abilities to forge a unified government on the frontier which could, in turn, challenge the Indians effectivel y and the British, if they brought the war to Virginia. In these struggles, he even had to prove he was a Patriot. Preston clearly placed his allegiance with the revolutionary movement when he joined with other freeholders from Fincastle County on January 20, 1775 to organize their local county committee in response to requests by the Continental Congress that such committees be established.

Our members informed the creation of PCORI, have served in its leadership, and have received funding support. Our members also have extensive experience in the federal health research ecosystem and value PCORI’s unique contributions to the evidence to improve patient outcomes. We therefore recognize how important it is for Congress to act now to reauthorize PCORI. It must have stable, predictable funding to ensure that the important patient-centered outcomes research and comparative effectiveness research it supports will continue without interruption. AcademyHealth strongly supports the discussion draft, including the modifications to PCORI’s authorizing statute that reflect many of our reauthorization principles, and offers the following comments: Support for a 10-Year Reauthorization of PCORI and Its Current Funding Mechanism PCORI and its Trust Fund were established to provide, stable, predictable funding for patient- centered outcomes research and comparative effectiveness research, as well as the dissemination of that research.

    To: Senator Mark Warner, Senator Tim Kaine, Congressman Ben Cline, Congresswoman Jennifer Wexton CC: Governor Ralph Northam, Secretary of Transportation Shannon Valentine, Staunton District CTB Member Dixon Whitworth From: Kate Wofford, Executive Director, Alliance for the Shenandoah Valley Keven Walker, Chief Executive Office, Shenandoah Valley Battlefields Foundation 9386 South Congress Street, New Market VA 22844 Date: April 17, 2020 RE: Targeted Approach to Possible Interstate 81 Funds in Federal Infrastructure Package We understand that leaders in Congress and the Administration are in discussion about a possible infrastructure bill as part of the federal response to COVID 19 impacts, as well as possible reauthorization of the federal surface transportation law. We expect that you are receiving a number of requests from localities, constituents, interest groups, and others seeking infrastructure funds for priority projects. We are writing to urge a targeted and well-considered approach to any federal funding for transportation projects in Virginia’s Shenandoah Valley, particularly any funding for projects involving Interstate 81. The I-81 corridor in Virginia can certainly use improvements, and it has been a focus of concern for local and regional travelers for many years. In the past 15 years, there have been a wide range of proposals to address these concerns—some have been simply awful, while others have been fairly good. The awful ones call for extensive, excessive widening of I-81 regardless of the cost to taxpayers, transportation needs, or impacts on communities, health, and natural and historic resources. Among other things, overbuilding on I-81 would degrade the rural character of the corridor— damaging historic resources and streams and destroying productive farmland, homes and businesses.

  • Layne-Lain-Lane Genealogy
    LAYNE-LAIN-LANE GENEALOGY Being a compilation of names and historical information of male de­ scendants of sixteen branches of the LAYNE-LAIN-LANE family in the United States, gathered from legal records and other available sources. Compiled and Published by FLOYD BENJAMIN LAYNE Los ANGELES., CALIFORNIA PRINTED 1962 BY THE BOOKMAN PRESS Los ANGELES, CALIFORNIA U.S.A. PREFACE Information contained in this book has been collected during the past fifty-one years by Laynes, Lains, and Lanes interested in their family history. In 1911 William Robert Layne, then living in Los Angeles, be­ gan the systematic collecting of data by writing letters and making personal contacts. Some of the replies to the early letters are in the possession of the publisher. Dr. R. H. Lane of Washington, D.C. has given hundreds of hours of his time to extensive research in official records for locali­ ties indicated in an effort to verify family tradition. Recognition must be give Miss Emma Sue Williams of Athens, Tenn., for her work in the Public Records of Eastern Tennessee. It was found impossible to follow family groups by staying with a single spelling i.e. Layne, Lain, or Lane. Many were illiterate in early times and there were estrangements within families, some not wishing to claim kinship with other members of their family. Some documents examined used more than one way of spelling for the same individual and some used only a (X) for their signature. In the interest of family history, members of families named Layne, Lain, or Lane are urged to send data on· their family to "Layne, Lain, Lane Genealogy", 2236 San Marco Dr., Los Angeles 28, California.

  • A History of St. Mark's Parish, in Which Governor Spotswood Did Not Have a Prominent Place, Would Be Like a Portrait with the Most Prominent Feature Left Out
    A HISTORY OF ST. MARK'S PARISH CULPEPER COUNTY, VIRGINIA, WITH NOTES OF OLD CHURCHES AND OLD FAMILIES, AND ILLUSTRATIONS OF THE Manners and Customs of the Olden Time. BY REV. PHILIP SLAUGHTER, D.D. Rector of Emmanuel Church, Culpeper Co.s Va. AUTHOR OF THE HISTORIES OF ST. GSORGB'S AND BRISTOL PARISHES, VA. 1877. IKNES & COMPANY, Printers, BALTIMORE, MO. THE AUTHOR'S PREFACE. The author believes that he was the first person who conceived the idea of writing a history of the old parishes in Yirginia upon the basis of the old vestry-books and registers. Thirty years ago he published the History of Bristol Parish (Petersburg), of which he was then rector. In 1849 he published the History of St. George's Parish, in Spotsylvania. His labors were then suspended by ill-health, and he went abroad, never expecting to resume them. This personal evil resulted in the general good. Bishop Meade, the most competent of all men for this special task, was induced to take up the subject, and the result was the valuable work, " The Old Ohurches and Families of Yirginia," in which the author's histories of St. George and Bristol Parishes, and some other materials which he had gathered, were incorporated. The author, in his old age, returns to his first love, and submits to the public a history of his native parish of St. Mark's. The reader will please bear in mind that this is not a general history of the civil and social institutions within the bounds of this parish, and yet he will find in it many incidental illustrations of these subjects.
