Funeral services were held on Sunday, December 7th at Kilgroe Funeral Home Chapel in Leeds with burial in Liberty Cemetery, Odenville, AL. John Ernest Mostella Died in December 5,2003 at the age of 95 A long time resident of Ashville, he worked hard all his life and made the most of his skills. He made butter molds, ax handles, gun stocks and has bottomed chairs. He also worked in coal mines, picked cotton, "witched" wells, dug wells and dug many graves and was a part-time preacher. He is most known for his cotton baskets and fiddles. He learned the art of making fiddles from his grandfather who was a slave and lived to be 99 years old. He was always at the Looney House Fall Festival singin' and preachin' and playing his fiddle. When his chain saw broke sometime during the last 2 years of his active life, he came to the Society for help, because he carved his fiddles with it. The Historical Society pitched in and bought him a new one. and after six trips to Elders Hardware he understood how to use it. -98- Ash-Newton House Moving & Restoration Project Donation Name Address City,State,Zip Phone Number Donation Amount Date Make donation check payable to St. Clair Historical Society Mail to: Ann Coupland, Treasurer 150 Ware Avenue Odenville, AL 35120 99 Ashville Museum & Archives St. Clair County Courthouse P.O.

S. Highway 231 North, 2.4 miles from Interstate 1-59. The community, once known as Slate, took on the name of an early landowner, businessman and politician, Curtis Grubb Beeson. Beeson settled in the Cove in 1840 in a house that still stands on Curt Hinton Road, between Beason Cove Road and Gallant Road. Curtis Beeson was the son of Captain Edward Beeson who established his family in St. Clair County around 1814. Edward Beeson, born in North Carolina in 1757, was a captain of foot soldiers in the Militia of the Revolutionary War. He also fought with Andrew Jackson against the Creek Indians, he died in 1837. In 1925, his grave site was move to Beason/Union Memorial Cemetery from the Carleton Cemetery, located in the Aurora community of Etowah County. Curtis (1802-1867) became a wealthy, influential man in this part of the state. At various times, he was a tax collector for St. Clair and Blount Counties, a state senator and a delegate to the Alabama constitutional convention. Curtis Beeson married Martha Clark in 1822. He amassed a great deal of property in the Cove and eight of their ten children owned farms there. Over the years, some family members began spelling their name Beason, as shown by the gravestones in the church cemetery. Descendants of Edward Beeson include the Beeson brothers, Dwight and Ralph, who (with their wives) made tremendous contributions to Samford University. Two great-grandsons of Curtis Beeson were Drs. W.D. and R. C. Partlow who were connected with Bryce Hospital and Partlow School. The Beason/Union church stands as a memorial to one of the pioneers of St. Clair County. His family has kept it viable, even though many have moved away. Others still live in the area and continue to make valuable contributions to the community. 101 The Ancestors of Larkin Hawkins of St. Clair County Alabama submitted by Verbon E. Swann Our story begins with the birth of William Amadas Hawkins the second in the year 1530 in Plymouth, Devonshire, England. William's parents, William Amadas Hawkins the elder and Joan Towne Trelawney are of the Hawkins family of Devon who have lived in Plymouth since it was incorporated in 1480. Plymouth was and is a great English seaport where there were three generations in a row of distinguished sailors in the Hawkins family; its leading merchants and serving often and well in the House of Commons. William's father, William Hawkins the elder made at least three voyages in 1528, 1530, and 1532 to Brazil.

  • Pirate Articles and Their Society, 1660-1730
    ‘Piratical Schemes and Contracts’: Pirate Articles and their Society, 1660-1730 Submitted by Edward Theophilus Fox to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Maritime History In May 2013 This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. Signature: ………………………………………………………….. 1 Abstract During the so-called ‘golden age’ of piracy that occurred in the Atlantic and Indian Oceans in the later seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries, several thousands of men and a handful of women sailed aboard pirate ships. The narrative, operational techniques, and economic repercussions of the waves of piracy that threatened maritime trade during the ‘golden age’ have fascinated researchers, and so too has the social history of the people involved. Traditionally, the historiography of the social history of pirates has portrayed them as democratic and highly egalitarian bandits, divided their spoil fairly amongst their number, offered compensation for comrades injured in battle, and appointed their own officers by popular vote. They have been presented in contrast to the legitimate societies of Europe and America, and as revolutionaries, eschewing the unfair and harsh practices prevalent in legitimate maritime employment. This study, however, argues that the ‘revolutionary’ model of ‘golden age’ pirates is not an accurate reflection of reality.

In the present Volume are printed the Registers of seven Devonshire parishes, and the Editor hopes that now a series \ for Devonshire has been commenced all the Parish Registers ^ of the County may be included in it. ^^ In the neighbouring counties much progress has been V made in this direction in the last few years, and we may -^ anticipate equal interest will be taken in the work of pre- \\ serving—through the means of the Press—the ancient Parish Registers of this County. In Cornwall upwards of 85, and in Somerset 79 Marriage Registers have been printed, while in the Dorset series, much more recently commenced, 36 Registers have already been rendered available by publication, and it is hoped that not less rapid progress will be effected in Devonshire. 13791 G4 The contents of the present Volume show how needful it is that steps should be taken to print our Parish Registers and place them beyond risk of destruction. Of the seven parishes included, only that of Uffculme possesses a Register going back to the earliest period of 1538 ; five do not com- mence until the seventeenth century and one not till 1752.
