UNIVERSITY OF OKLAHOMA GRADUATE COLLEGE “POSSESSED OF THE MOST EXTENSIVE TRADE, CONNEXIONS AND INFLUENCE”: THE ATLANTIC INTIMACIES OF AN EIGHTEENTH CENTURY INDIAN TRADER A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE FACULTY in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY By BRYAN RINDFLEISCH Norman, Oklahoma 2014 “POSSESSED OF THE MOST EXTENSIVE TRADE, CONNEXIONS AND INFLUENCE”: THE ATLANTIC INTIMACIES OF AN EIGHTEENTH CENTURY INDIAN TRADER A DISSERTATION APPROVED FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF HISTORY BY ______________________ Dr. Joshua Piker, Chair ______________________ Dr. Paul A. Gilje ______________________ Dr. Judith Lewis ______________________ Dr. Robert Rundstrom ______________________ Dr. Catherine E. Kelly ©Copyright by BRYAN RINDFLEISCH, 2014 All Rights Reserved. ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This dissertation has been a long time coming, and it is only natural that my intellectual, financial, and personal debts are many. While the years of research and writing is often a lonely and solitary process, this work could not have been possible in the first place without the support of so many people, institutions, and organizations. Writing one’s “Acknowledgements” is essentially charting the course of one’s own life over the past decade. Therefore, I must start with those who encouraged me at the earliest stages of my career. This is for Dr. Richard St. Germaine (Ojibwe) and Dr. James W. Oberly at the University of Wisconsin – Eau Claire who made me truly believe that history is much more than just dates and names, and took a naive undergraduate under their wing and opened his eyes to the world of Native Peoples and their pasts. Similarly, I cannot put into words how indebted I am to Dr. Kristen Foster at Marquette University. Her guidance, mentorship, and friendship has been a source of inspiration throughout my academic life; a life that would not have been possible without her support. Also, Dr. Thomas Jablonsky and Dr. Steven Avella provided constant encouragement and sagacious advice; Dr. Lezlie Knox showed me how to be a true professional in the academic world; Dr. John Krugler and Dr. Julius Ruff displayed great patience with an easily excitable student; and Dr. James Marten read and edited much of my early work. At the University of Oklahoma, I could not have asked for a more remarkable advisor than Dr. Joshua Piker. So many times you hear the “horror stories” about doctoral advisors, but he is far from that. His insight in every manner of academia – and life in general – has been, and continues to be, a source of inspiration. More iv importantly, he not only tolerated my volatile ramblings in person and on paper, but gave me direction and a purpose. I would not be here if it was not for his confidence in me and his unwavering support, especially during the dissertation process. I only hope one day that I might be able to replicate even a fraction of his scholarship or mentorship. My deep and sincere thanks also goes out to Dr. Paul Gilje who taught me what it is to be a scholar of early and revolutionary America, how to read and write like a historian, and how to love this profession. His dedication to our work as historians, patience, and “tough-love” approach remains a source of motivation. To complete the triumvirate that molded me into who I am as a scholar, I am eternally grateful for the insight and support of Dr. “Cathy” Kelly. As her teaching assistant, editorial assistant for Common-place, and a student in her seminars, she taught me what it is to be a responsible historian, pushed and challenged me when I needed it most, and believed in me when I struggled to do so myself. I also owe extensive thanks to Dr. Judith Lewis and Dr. James Hart who taught me everything I needed to know about British and Irish history, and to Dr. Robert Griswold for his abiding support. My intellectual debts for this dissertation extend even further to those who offered their guidance, assistance, and knowledge throughout the dissertation process. I must single out Dr. Steven C. Hahn, Dr. Kathryn H. Braund, Dr. John T. Juricek, Dr. Claudio Saunt, and the Curator of Published Materials at the South Caroliniana Library, Friedrich Hamer, for their expertise in regards to the Creek Indians and southeastern history. I am particularly obligated to Dr. Braund and Dr. Saunt who provided me with research materials I could not access myself. Additionally, I owe a very special thanks to the genealogist Brent Holcomb, who seemingly lives at the South Carolina v Department of Archives and History, and managed to locate George Galphin’s last will and testament after it went missing. At every twist and turn that this dissertation took, various historians were also there to encourage and inspire. Therefore, I must thank Dr. Colin Calloway, Dr. Robbie Ethridge, Dr. Daniel Usner, Dr. Scott Stevens, and Dr. Kariann Yokota. In addition, the support and knowledge of the staff at the South Caroliniana Library (in particular Graham Duncan), Newberry Library in Chicago (John Aubry and Matt Rutherford), David Library of the American Revolution (Katherine A. Ludwig, Brian Graziano, and Meg McSweeney), William L. Clements Library (Brian Dunnigan), Georgia Historical Society, South Carolina Historical Society, South Carolina Department of Archives and History, Hargrett Rare Book & Manuscript Library, British Library, and British National Archives were all indispensable to my work. This dissertation would also not have been possible without the financial aid of several university and archival institutions. I express my sincere gratitude to the History Department at the University of Oklahoma for their funding my month-long research in London. I would also be remiss if not to thank the Graduate College, the College for Arts & Sciences, and Graduate Student Senate for the generous grants that funded my research at the Universities of South Carolina and Georgia. In addition, I gratefully recognize the financial support of the Newberry Library for a fellowship to research at their institution and the American Philosophical Society. I am similarly indebted to the David Library of the American Revolution for their resident research fellowship. Finally, I thank the national office of Phi Alpha Theta at the University of South vi Florida for their doctoral scholarship that allowed me to travel to the William L. Clements Library at the University of Michigan. Friends and family have been my biggest cheerleaders and advocates throughout this process. It goes without saying that my parents and in-laws have been a constant source of support over the years. From their willingness to listen – and even reading my work – to giving me sanctuary in the basement to research and write, I owe them so much. To Jeff Fortney and Rowan Steineker, they together lent me their intellectual wherewithal, priceless humor, and constant companionship. Even when I was down in the deepest recesses of dissertation hell, they were always there for me. To Dustin Mack, he served in a number of supportive capacities, but none more important than as my chief reader who spent many days pouring over various drafts of my chapters. To the rest of my graduate cohort – Matt Bahar, Julie Stidolph, Matt Pearce, Brandi Hilton- Hagemann, Doug Miller, Nate Holly, and Stephen Vickory – your friendship and knowledge has been instrumental in shaping me as a scholar and friend. Also, to my fellow “fellows” at the David Library – Christopher Minty, Mark Boonshoft, and Dr. Michelle Orihel – you provided an invaluable intellectual support, a wealth of insight and research resources, and most of all, your friendship. I eagerly await our next “Chipotle” and “Wegmans” antics. Finally, Bridget Rindfleisch has been a rock amid the stormy seas of the past five years. Her tireless love and enthusiasm for life has kept me going throughout the dissertation. She not only endured the ups and downs of this process, but found ways to make me smile, laugh, and persevere every day. This is why I dedicate this work to her, because she never once lost faith in me. She is the light of my life. vii TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction 1 Part I: George Galphin’s Atlantic World of Intimacies and Localities, 1764-1776 1. “In whom he placed the greatest Confidence”: George Galphin, his Intimates, and the World of Familial Intimacy at Silver Bluff 38 2. “The intimate connection…between his interest and mine in the Indian trade”: George Galphin, his Allies, and the Creation of Intimate Partnership and Alliances 78 3. “His People”: George Galphin, his Dependents, and the Quest for Gentility in a World of Intimacy 126 Part II: The Foundations of George Galphin’s Atlantic World, 1707-1763 4. “We have Suffered many Hardships to acquire a Small Competency”: The Galphin Family of County Armagh, Ireland, 1700-1737 166 5. “He was Looked Upon as an Indian”: George Galphin, the Creek Indians of Coweta, and the Politics of Intimacy, 1741-1763 194 6.

    THE WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORICAL MAGAZINE Volume 56 January 1973 Number 1 THE PREVOSTS OF THE ROYAL AMERICANS Edward G. Williams peldom in recorded history has there been a group of people who O surpassed in adaptability the Swiss soldiers who entered the Britisharmy in the middle of the eighteenth century expressly to serve in America against the French. Among the company of officers there stands out a family of three brothers and one nephew, all of whom were exceptional in every phase of military life and personal conduct. The brothers Prevost (pronounced Prevo) left an imprint upon the annals of the British army that would be the envy of many a family historian, and nowhere does greater interest attach to their activities than in Pennsylvania west of the Susquehanna River. In fact, there are few parts of western Europe and fewer sections of the English- speaking colonies on this side of the Atlantic Ocean where interest does not attach to their mutifaceted affairs. Ubiquity was the one attribute common to the whole group, and cosmopolitanism, linked with urbanity, was the prime quality that characterized them all. In words of modern expression, "they got around" and "they belonged" in whatever locality, situation, or society they found themselves. Certain members of the family crossed and re- crossed the ocean almost as though modern air travel existed. Two of the Prevosts married American wives, which focused upon the hus- bands an ephemeral kind of fame. Along with Henry Bouquet and Frederick Haldimand, each of the Prevosts placed his individual imprint upon the memorial records of the Royal American Regiment, the King's Royal Rifle Corps of the present day.

  • 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.

    Alden T Vaughan COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY FRONTIER BANDITTI AND THE INDIANS: THE PAXTON BOYS' LEGACY, 1763-1775 QN September 13, 1766, Secretary of State for the Southern 0 }Department, Lord Shelburne, addressed a circular letter to the governors of Britain's North American colonies. "His Majesty's Super- intendents for Indian Affairs," he wrote with evident consternation, report "that the most unprovoked violences and Murthers have lately been committed on the Indians . .. whose Tribes are at present in Peace and Amity with His Majesty's Provinces, and that the offenders have not yet been discovered and brought to Justice." The danger was imminent and immense. In conjunction with frequent encroachments on Indian lands and sharp practices by colonists engaged in the Indian trade, recent crimes against friendly Indians threatened to embroil British America in a massive Indian war. Through Shelburne's letter, King George commanded his governors "to remedy and prevent those Evils, which are as contrary to the Rules of good Policy as of Justice and Equity."' Pennsylvania was one of the most culpable colonies.2 Until the 1750s, William Penn's American province had enjoyed unparalleled peace with its Indian inhabitants; when abuses of Indians occasionally occurred, colonial authorities had generally administered impartial justice.3 That idyllic picture changed dramatically in the mid 1750s. The French and Indian War brought several years of frontier carnage that returned, after a brief lapse, during Pontiac's uprising of 1763. Although peace was soon restored, interracial harmony was not. Frontier frustrations and racial antagonism reached a symbolic climax in December 1763 when a band of Lancaster County ruffians slaugh- tered twenty friendly Indians and attempted, several weeks later, to I 2 PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY wreak the same vigilante violence on 140 Christian Indians sheltered in Philadelphia.
