Introduction “[I]n the arrogance of our conviction that we would have done better than he did in a single case, we exempt ourselves from any duty to pay attention to the many cases where he shows himself to be better than us.” 1 — Murray Kempton, New York Newsday , November 27, 1983 EDWARD MOORE KENNEDY AND I share the same first name; we also share the somewhat uncommon nickname of Ted for Edward. And for the first two decades of my life, that was roughly the extent of my knowledge about the man who has been my state’s senior senator for my entire life, all but seven years of my mother’s life, and more than half of my grandmother’s life. Kennedy has been a member of the Senate for so long (45 of his 75 years) that it seems he could have been born in the cloakroom, though he was actually born in Boston on February 22, 1932, the youngest child of Joseph Patrick and Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy.

  • The Pamunkey Hendrick Chronicles 1690-1800
    The Pamunkey Hendrick Chronicles 1690-1800 Version 5.0 December 2012 The Chronicles are a chronologically-sequenced collection of records relating to Hance Hendrick, a 17th Century settler of the Pamunkey Neck of Virginia, and his descendants. The earliest records, which are almost exclusively from Virginia sources, are arranged into “chapters” by time period. Some of the most recent editions of the Chronicles include separate “chapters” of records for individual counties and states. These Chronicles are built on the substantial foundation provided by Dr. John Scott Davenport, who compiled its first few versions through 2001. Since then many individuals have made significant contributions of additional and supplemental material. Among the most active researchers have been Will Hendricks, Dr. Robert Hendrick, Jack Hendrick, Jean Wall, Ben Hendricks, Richard Helm, Tricia Dole, Pat Baber, Gary Lester, Bob Baird, and the late Linda Crissinger. These contributors have also made an effort to replace abstracted records by contributing transcripts or their own abstracts of the original documents. For the last several years the focus of this effort has been to compile a complete set of records for the first four generations of this family. With the addition of several hundred new records in 2009, 2010, and a few in 2011 and 2012, that effort appears to have drawn to a close. Attention is now shifting to records relating to the fifth and sixth generations in an effort to identify as many of them as possible. Because those records span a far wider geographic range and apply to a much larger number of descendants, they will be published in separate documents.

    Old Blandford Church, Petersburg, Virginia {Richard Yarborough’s grave marker is bottom center, above.} Volume 122 William Yerby, John Yerby, George Yerby, Thomas Yerby Lancaster Co., VA Records Compiled by Ophelia Kessler (Includes material from Frances Lockwood) Leonard Yarbrough, Editor June 2015 Published by The Yarbrough National Genealogical & Historical Association, Inc. © Yarbrough National Genealogical & Historical Association, Inc. 2015. Dedication Whether we wish to admit it or not, we are the future of our ancestors, as our descendants are our future. We owe our descendants our dreams and bequeath to them the legacy of our collective accomplishments – nothing more and nothing less. To our descendants, we charge you with the honoring of your heritage. Your ancestors were hardy folk, god-fearing and plain spoken, and who recognized that nothing was due them except that which they themselves earned. They were not ashamed to profess their belief in God, their country and the American ideal. Of course, there were a few rapscallions in our collective history, but neither more nor less than in any other family. We too easily forget what it took to forge a life in a new world, one rife with peril and with little at hand but a steadfast determination to not only survive but to thrive. Our ancestors bequeathed us with their genes, aspirations and talents. It is therefore fitting that the Blandford Series of Yarbrough Family Records be dedicated to them for making it possible for us to be who we are. To paraphrase Robert Kincaid1, “The dreams they had were good ones. They didn’t all come true, but they were worth having, all the same.” Acknowledgement The Yarbrough Association is greatly indebted to the vision and efforts of Cathy Y.
