  • G:\Trimble Families, July 22, 1997.Wpd
    Trimble Families a Partial Listing of the Descendants of Some Colonial Families Revised Eugene Earl Trimble July 22, 1997 1 PREFACE This Trimble record deals primarily with the ancestral line of the writer and covers the period from the time of arrival of James Trimble (or Turnbull; born ca. 1705; died 1767) in America which may have been prior to March 11, 1734, until in most instances about 1850. Some few lines are, however, brought up to the present. The main purpose of this account is to present the earliest generations. With the census records from 1850 on, enumerating each individual, it is much easier to trace ancestors and descendants. Any one who has researched a family during the l700's knows how limited the available data are and how exceeding difficult the task is. One inevitably reaches the point where the search becomes more conjecture than fact, but man is an inquisitive creature and the lure of the unknown is irresistible. No attempt has been made to give all possible references. For this Trimble line and other Trimble lines the reader is referred to the 62 page manuscript on the Trimble Family by James Augustus LeConte (born Adairsville, Ga., July 19, 1870; died Atlanta, Ga., July 18, 1941) whose papers are at the University of Georgia at Athens; the Trimble Family research located in the Manuscript Department of The University of Virginia, by Kelley Walker Trimble (born Feb. 21, 1884; died Route l, Staunton, Va., after Feb. 12, 1955); the Trimble and related research and writings of Mrs. Jerome A.

  • Trimble Family by J. A. Laconte, 1934 the Trimble Line Has Been a Strong
    Trimble Family By J. A. LaConte, 1934 The Trimble line has been a strong and prolific one. Judging from its record in America. All Trimble immigrants to America have come from Protestant North of Ireland, most of them from counties Amagh and Antrim. They fell into several groups of families and relatives, and in addition, a number of individuals who have not yet been related to any of these groups. One authority (Palmer & Trimble Genealogy, by Lewis Palmer, J. B. Lippincott & Co., 1875) claims that the family was of Cornish origin and that the spelling was originally Trumbald. Be that as it may, the American branches seem to trace back to Scotland, under that name, Trumbull, or Turnbull, the celebrated border clan of that name, probably fleeing to the North of Ireland following one of the Stuart uprisings, The older generations in America have been described as typically Scots in appearance–blue eyes, florid complexion and sandy hair, and usually sticky and if medium height. This description fits such of the old members of the several Trimble families whom I knew in my earlier years. Most of them were of the Presbyterian faith, though one group were Quakers. In 1719, following famine and oppression at home, a wave of emigration flowed out from the North of Ireland to America. The New England Colonies and New York were already settled and the immigrants poured into Pennsylvania, soon filling the new counties of Lancaster and Chester. Once fully started, this flow of emigration to America continued steady until the eve of the Revolution.

  • The Formation of the Republican Party in Ohio
    The Old Order Trembles: The Formation of the Republican Party in Ohio by Thomas W. Kremm istorians disagree over the immediate cause of the Civil War, but most of H them concur that a major factor precipitating the conflict was the po- litical realignment of the 1850's. The established view of Northern politics in the 1850's holds that the Kansas-Nebraska Act introduced in Congress by Illinois Senator Stephen A. Douglas in 1854 destroyed old alignments and gave rise to the Republican Party which suddenly struck down the seemingly unchallengeable Democracy. The Kansas-Nebraska Act, only one of a series of outrages designed to extend the domain of slavery, finally united Northern consciences and committed them to stopping the expansion of slavery and containing it in the South. Former Whigs, shattered after their defeat in the 1852 presidential election, joined dissident Democrats and Free Soilers in the search for new organizations capable of wresting control from the Democrats. Some discovered it in Know Nothingism, but this was only a temporary and abnormal half-way house to Republicanism. This interpretation, although not without merit, fails to analyze adequately the traumatic political reorganiza- tion of the 1850's.1 In asking why voters deserted the Whig Party at the state level, instead of why the national Whig organization disappeared or why the Republican co- alition emerged, it becomes apparent that the slavery extension issue alone did not account for the realignment of the 1850's. Even though the slavery issue divided Northern and Southern Whigs, it did not necessarily drive Northern Whig voters from the party.

In a very real sense, Ohio is a monument to his memory. Yet his political services have never been adequately recognized, and no biography of him has hitherto appeared.

  • Al.L.KN Tmuiii.K. Autobiography of Allen Trimble
    Al.l.KN Tmuiii.K. Autobiography of Allen Trimble. At the request of my family, I have prepared the following account of my ancestors, as derived from the two past genera­ tions:1 My paternal grandfather, John Trimble,' with three brothers, emigrated from the North of Ireland to America, in the early part of the 17th century. Their ancestors were of Scotch descent, disciples of the great reformer, Knox, and deeply imbued with the religious zeal and uncompromising spirit of that extraordi­ nary man, and had witnessed and felt the consequences of the bloody scenes that followed the Reformation; and .although the victory of King William, at the great battle of Boyne, in 1688, gave the Irish Protestants some relief from Catholic persecution, they continued to feel that they had held liberty and property - by a precarious tenure; and many of their descendants deter­ mined to seek, a home in the New World, where it was understood religious freedom could be enjoyed. Among the emigrants of this period were the Aliens, Andersons, Brattons, Bells, Browns, Christies (or Christians, as they were, called), Craigs, Crawfords., Estells, Gambles, Moors, Moffats, McDowells, McClures, McCues, McNairs, Matthews, Poages, Prestons, Robinsons, etc. 'Most of these, after a few years resi- 1.

It would be impossible, within any reasonable limits, to include the existing generation, and hence the names of living persons are generally omitted. The writer regrets that he cannot present here sketches of other ancient and worthy families, such as the Andersons, Christians, Hamiltons, Kerrs, McPheeterses, Millers, Pattersons, Pilsons, Walkers, etc. The genealogies of several of the oldest and most distinguished families— Lewis, Preston, Houston, etc. —are omitted, because they are given fully in other publications.

  • The Decline of the Ohio Know-Nothings, 1856-1860 by Johnb
    The Decline of the Ohio Know-Nothings, 1856-1860 by JohnB. Weaver he 1850's witnessed the dramatic rise and fall of the Know-Nothing T party in American politics. This nativist movement grew out of Protes- tant alarm over Irish and German Catholic immigration in the 1840's and 1850's, and reached the peak of its political power in 1854 and 1855. Know- Nothings condemned both Whigs and Democrats for being too tolerant of this immigration and too eager to seek immigrant support at the polls. How- ever, the Know-Nothings split apart in 1856 over the issue of slavery and thereafter rapidly declined. In the North the Republican party absorbed most of the antislavery Know-Nothings, thus giving the party a certain nativist tinge.1 Those Know-Nothings in the North who did not become Republicans faced a politically bleak future. In Ohio these nativists struggled to keep a separate organization alive, but with little success. As early as 1855 the majority of Ohio's Know-Nothings had entered into an alliance with the Republicans. In that year the Republicans nominated eight Know-Nothings to run for state offices along with Salmon Portland Chase, the party's candidate for governor. Chase himself was not a Know- Nothing and refused to endorse the nativist position but he accepted the Know-Nothings on the ticket as the price for a politically valuable alliance. Those Know-Nothings who detested Chase for his antislavery radicalism and who disliked the nature of the alliance nominated their own candidate for governor, Allen Trimble, who came in a distant third in the three-way race that Chase won.2 The competition in 1855 between Chase and Trimble for Know-Nothing support foreshadowed the Know-Nothing split in 1856.

  • A University Microfilms International
    INFORMATION TO USERS This material was produced from a microfilm copy of the original document. While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of the original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image. You willa find good image of the page in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., was part of the material being photographed the photographer followed a definite method in "sectioning" the material.
