In providing for the issue of a series of historical studies relating to Rhode Island, adapted to use in school, the Department of Education is fortunate in being able to present, a~ an initial number, Mr. Eaton's study of "Roger Williams, the Founder of Providence." It was first delivered as an address before the Rhode Island Historical Society on the second of October, 1906, upon the unveiling of the ·tablets placed by the State to mark the site of the spring where the settlers first landecl. and the site of the Roger Williams Home Lot. As the founder 6f Providence, as a leading actor in the beginnings of Rhode Island, and as one of the few famous Americans of Colonial times whose names will endure, Roger Williams is certainly a great historical personage, of whose life and times every pupil in our schools should have knowledge.

  • Chronicles of Brunonia
    Chronicles of Brunonia The Things They Planted Molly Jacobson Almost four hundred years ago, Roger Williams and his companions paddled down the Seekonk River and landed on the Rhode Island shore. Surrounded by wilderness, with no outside aid and scarce resources, these first settlers slowly raised their farms and homesteads, scavenged for food, and drafted laws for their community. http://dl.lib.brown.edu/cob Copyright © 2008 Molly Jacobson Written in partial fulfillment of requirements for E. Taylor’s EL18 or 118: “Tales of the Real World” in the Nonfiction Writing Program, Department of English, Brown University. Today, relics of the first European settlers of Rhode Island are buried mentally and physically by Providence. Asphalt runs over apple orchards Thomas Angell used to own. The Old State House presides over the western part of John Sweet’s fields. Waterman Street, which hugs Brown University, is the final legacy of the Englishman who lent it his name, while Brown’s English Department sits atop the northern end of his garden. The first Baptist Church in America straddles the original Francis Weston homestead. When these men and others left the Puritan settlement at Massachusetts in the early 1600s, they found immaculate countryside across the Seekonk River. Religious outcasts and enterprising colonists united to establish the Providence Plantations, laying ground for a singularly liberal colony. Today, historians herald them for their tolerance and independence. But these lofty ideals belie a more immediate human struggle. Before industry and new immigrants, the founders of Providence toiled dutifully by primitive farmhouses along the Seekonk to feed their families.

Rhode Ialand bad finally completed the first period of her colony existenee, and eould now look forward to the future with more confi­ dence and hope. She had weathered the storms and hardships inci­ dent to the beginnings of all settlements, and though threatened with anarchy from within and oppression from without, abe bad held fut to the free and lofty principles that distinguished her from her neigh­ bors. In spite of the warnings and forebodings of her incredulous Puritan opponents, in spite of their scorn and reviling, she persevered to the end, and elearly showed to them and to the world that a state could stand, even although it permitted a man to wonhip God 88 he BaW fit. CHAPTER VIII. FROM THE CHARTJm OF 1118 TO KING PHILIF8 WAD..

  • Thomas and Alice Ashton Angell of Providence
    GO TO MASTER INDEX OF RHODE ISLAND PEOPLE THOMAS AND ALICE ASHTON ANGELL OF PROVIDENCE 1617 Alice Ashton was born in about this year in St. Albans, Herts, England to James Ashton and Alice Honeychurch Ashton. 1618 May 1, Tuesday: Thomas Angell was born in St. Albans, Herts, England. 1631 The Reverend Roger Williams and the Reverend John Eliot arrived at a New World where all male church members in the Bay Colony were becoming eligible to vote, and where, for impiety, in this year Philip Ratcliff’s ears were being severed (so how can someone’s ears be impious, did they wiggle during worship, or what?). When Thomas Angell came with the Reverend Williams on the ship Lyon under Captain William Pierce (Captain William Peirce? Captain A. Pearce?), sailing from London to Boston, he was about thirteen years of age and was bound in service to the Reverend as an apprentice or servant. (Another source says he was instead the servant of Richard Waterman.) After a couple of months in Boston the two went to Salem, where they would remain until their departure for Providence, Rhode Island in 1636. HDT WHAT? INDEX THOMAS ANGELL ALICE ANGELL LOCATIONS OF RHODE ISLAND HISTORY PEOPLE CONNECTED WITH RHODE ISLAND 1636 Thomas Angell went to Providence, Rhode Island where the Reverend Roger Williams, William Haris [Harris], John Smith, Joshua Verin, and Francis Wicks composed the first white settlers of Providence (ANNALS OF PROVIDENCE, pages 20-21). Each of these received a lot of land. Thomas Angell’s lot was where the 1st Baptist Church and High School and Angell Street are now situated, fronting on what was then the Towne Road but is now termed North Main Street.

  • Champlin Memorial Transcribed
    October 9, 2003 To all Champlin Researchers: This transcription of the Champlin Memorial had its origin in August 1999 as I was beginning to explore that family in my wife's lineage. I discovered the original in the library at the Newport Historical Society. The work is a typescript, bound volume. The narrative is fascinating; the genealogical information is extensive. Its pages are well worn and very fragile. Handwritten annotations are found throughout. As I was working on the arduous task of hand-copying that information, I thought other researchers would benefit by having a copy of the Memorial. Thus began my quest to make the Memorial available to as many people as possible. I did not live near Newport, Rhode Island. Getting to the Historical Society required airplane rides, hotels and the like. But, with perseverance and patience, I was able to complete the transcription shortly after the Champlin Family Reunion of June 2003. The transcription is as accurate to the original as I could make it. It has been proofed to insure the information is here as it is found in the original. Typographical errors, spacing and layout have been copied to the extent possible. The original has several cites to appendices which are not found with the original. Since I did not know the origins of the handwritten notations they have been excluded from the transcription. An addendum of unknown origins has been included here. I set up the transcription to accommodate duplex printing of the pages. If you travel to Newport, please take time to visit the Historical Society and peruse the Memorial.
