Sterner, of Menges Mills, Pa. wrote to the compiler of this record asking for assistance in determining the forebears of Senator Richard Nixon. She was' 'a friend and former neighbor of Senator Nixon's mother. She wrote at the suggestion of Miss Jessica C. Ferguson, Genealogist at the Pennsylvania State Library. Senator Nixon knew that his great-grandfather Nixon had been killed at the battle of Gettysburg in 1863 and that his grandfather had been born somewhere west of Pittsburgh, Pa. A search of Washington County (Pa.) court records showed three George Nixons. Census data and pension data showed their birth dates to be 1152, 1184 and 1821. George Nixon I purchased a farm at Washington, Pa. in 180). His son, Seeds Nixon, was one of the connecting links. Delaware records showed a marriage in 1115 of George Nixon and Sarah Seeds. Ohio records showed a Revolutionary veteran, named George Nixon, who had a son, Seeds. Washington County deed records indicated that George I and Seeds lived on the same farm. The pension record of George Nixon I (S8919) coupled with will and deed records of New Castle County, Del. proved that George I was a son of ~ames, that he went to Penna. in 1803 and Ohio in 1830. Further research showed'that George Nixon I went to Henry County, Illinois in 1842 and died soon after arrival. The DAR marked his grave in 1925. The grandson, George Nixon III, was born in Pa., went to Ohio in 1853 and died at Gettysburg in 1863 a few days after the battle. Research turned next to the Trimmer family of Washington County, for the Pension record of George Nixon Ill's widow showed her maiden name to be Trimmer. By a roundabout way involving amateur radio a copy was ob­ tained of the manuscript on the Trimmer Genealogy written in 1904 by David Trimmer of McArthur, Ohio. Correspondence with the parents of Richard Mil­ hous Nixon showed that on the maternal side his Milhous, Griffith and Burdg ancestors had lived near Washington, Pa. This led eventually to the tracing of all lines and the publication of this record. The compiler of these notes found the Nixons listed in the early 18000s as members on the rolls of the First United Methodist Church (Washington), for which he is records custodian. A sampler which had puzzled Miss Flo­ rence Eisele, of Natchez, Miss. for many years turned out to bear the names of members of the family of George Nixon II. It was found that the parents of both the Nixon and the Milhous grandfathers were married in Washington County. George Nixon - Margaret ~Trimmer 1843 in a Mthodist ceremony; Joshua V. Milhous - Elizabeth P. Griffith 1841 in a Quaker one. Research was greatly facilitated by the excellent Quaker records in Hin­ shaw's volumes and at Swarthmore College. All of the maternal lines and one-third of the paternal lines were found to be Quaker. To search out lines such as Moore and Malmsbury requked years of digging, with the search ending in printed genealogies. Many families were written up in county histories. Family, church, court, census and pension records were searched. These families were found to have published genealogies. Brinton, Burdg, Cattell, Clemson, Dickinson, Doane, Gaskill, Griffith, Hemingway, Hussey, Lippincott, Malmsbury, Mendenhall, Milhous, Moore, Morse, Potts, Price, Scothorn, Shattuck, Shinn, Smith, Trimmer. 4 ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Over two hundred individuals and libraries have helped in this project. In addition, a number of governmental agencies have provided assistance. In recent months Frank R Baird (Penna) has given a lot of he]p.

NOTE ON THE CALENDAR In records before 1752, especially those of Quakers, the tenth month was December and the new year began March 25. In 1752 the new year was changed to begin January 1 and 11 days were added to all dates to bring them in line with the seasons. For example, George Washington was born 12m 11-1731 by a Quaker calendar, Feb 11-1731/32 by his calendar, Feb 22­ 1732 by our calendar. Some dat~s in ~his book may be based on one system, some on the other. 10m 31-1731 • Dec 31-1731r 11m 1-1731/32 = Jan 1-1732; 1m 24-1741/41 was followed by 1m 25-1742 = Mar 25-1742. This does not take into account the eleven days added in Sep 1752. That month had 19 ~s. 5 INTRODUCTION When a man becomes President of the United States, there is interest in his ancestry. President Nixon was born in California. His father was born in Ohio; his mother in Indiana. His parents, two of his grandparents and two of his great-grandparents died in California. All of his grand­ parents, all of his great-grandparents and 13 of his 16 great-great­ grandparents lived at one time in, Ohio. The sixteen were born in. Penna 6. Md 4. N J 3. Del 2, Ohio 1 The states of residence at time of death were. Ohio 7. Iowa 3. Ind 2, Penna 1. Mo 1. Md 1. There are a number of unusual facts about the Nixon ancestors. (1) they all lived in a narrow band between Baltimore, Md and Newark, N J. several moved to this region from New England or Long Island, (2) on the average they landed in America about 1685. there is no record of any landing after 1775. (3) about two-thirds were Quakers, on both sides of the family, (4) many of the families are well-known and have published histories, (5) a conservative estimate is that over two million Americans are "cousins" of President Nixon, if one goes out to fifth cousins. (6) except for the Trimmers, all the lines go back to the British Isles, mainly England, with a few from Scotland and Wales, and several families stopping in Ireland on the way to America, on the maternal side there is considerable longevity, for five generations the average age at death was about eighty years •. I Richard Mi1lhous Nixon had eight great-grandparents, two of whom died after he was born. The eight branches are. NIXON - the earliest record is in 1731, when James Nixon bought a farm in Brandywine Hundred, New Castle Co, Del. He may have come from Ireland. His descendants migrated to Penna, Ohio and California. Miss Jessica C Ferguson and Dr Ralph H Lane assisted the compiler in this branch.

  • Lymanc. Draper J
    GLIMPSES OF THE "HEROIC AGE": WILLIAMDARBY'S LETTERS TO LYMANC. DRAPER J. Gerald Kennedy the final paragraph of "The Wedding," a short story published in Ina Philadelphia monthly in 1836, a writer signing himself "Mark Bancroft" painted this affecting picture of a homestead near Washing- ton, Pennsylvania, which had been abandoned by a pioneer family: "Drawn away by that infatuation which places paradise on the outer verge of civilization,the father, son, and uncle sold their sweet home, and plunged into the deep west, and became utterly lost, long years lost to all my inquiries, and the last time Ipassed the once Osborne cot- tage, Ifound the house disfigured by waste and neglect ;the orchard trees were decayed or dead, and the stumps of the— fine sugar maple shade trees, only stood monuments of barbarism weeds and briars covered the garden." ! Set in the 1790s, the story depicted a period of transition in the Pennsylvania border country, the decade in which the growth of new towns and the cessation of Indian hostilities effectively closed the era of frontier settlement and prompted restless folk like the fictional Osbornes to push farther into the wilderness. Creating a bittersweet conclusion to an otherwise humorous tale, the final lines epitomized the relentlessness of historical change, for the ruined cottage im- plicitly represented a prior attempt to secure happiness "on the outer verge of civilization." The passage expressed a private nostalgia as well,because the author, WilliamDarby (1775-1854) ,had thirty-seven years earlier been caught up in the same "infatuation," leaving his home and family in Washington County to follow the wave of west- ward migration.

  • 2020 Commencement Program.Pdf
    Commencement MAY 2020 WELCOME FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends: This is an occasion of profoundly mixed emotions for all of us. On one hand, there is the pride, excitement, and immeasurable hope that come with the culmination of years of effort and success at the University of Connecticut. But on the other hand, there is the recognition that this year is different. For the first time since 1914, the University of Connecticut is conferring its graduate and undergraduate degrees without our traditional ceremonies. It is my sincere hope that you see this moment as an opportunity rather than a misfortune. As the Greek Stoic philosopher Epictetus observed, “Difficulties show us who we are.” This year our University, our state, our nation, and indeed our world have faced unprecedented difficulties. And now, as you go onward to the next stage of your journey, you have the opportunity to show what you have become in your time at UConn. Remember that the purpose of higher education is not confined to academic achievement; it is also intended to draw from within those essential qualities that make each of us an engaged, fully-formed individual – and a good citizen. There is no higher title that can be conferred in this world, and I know each of you will exemplify it, every day. This is truly a special class that will go on to achieve great things. Among your classmates are the University’s first Rhodes Scholar, the largest number of Goldwater scholars in our history, and outstanding student leaders on issues from climate action to racial justice to mental health.

    _______________________________ READABILITY AND QUALITY OF WEB-BASED INFORMATION RELATED TO NOISE-INDUCED HEARING IMPAIRMENT _______________________ Abigail Johnson A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of Master of Audiology at the University of Canterbury 2017 Acknowledgements This thesis would not have been possible without the guidance and support of my primary supervisor, Dr. Kim Wise, and secondary supervisor, Dr. Rebecca Kelly- Campbell. I am beyond lucky to have had you both as lecturers and supervisors; your wealth of knowledge, and passion related to audiological research is invaluable. Words cannot express my gratitude for your fast email replies, level-heads, and constructive feedback throughout this process. To my classmates – I have met and made friends with some of the most thoughtful, intelligent, and hardworking people, and I will be so proud to call you all colleagues in the very near future. To Daniel – you have made it through nearly three years of dating a poor student. I am, and will be forever grateful for your patience and support – here’s to the (weathier) future! Lastly, to my wonderful mum – I would not have made it this far without your mental, emotional, and financial support. Thank you from the bottom of my heart. i Abstract Aims: The purpose of this study was to assess the readability of online information pertaining to noise-induced hearing impairment (NIHI). This study aimed to answer several research questions: (1) What is the readability of online written information associated with searches related to NIHI? (2) Is the readability of online information significantly higher than the recommended 6th grade levels proposed by many researchers (Cheng & Dunn, 2015; Eloy et al., 2012; McInnes & Haglund, 2011; Misra, Kasabwala, Agarwal, Eloy, & Liu, 2012; Narwani, Nalamada, Lee, Kothari, & Lakhani, 2015; C.

  • A Note on Scalp Bounties in Pennsylvania
    A NOTE ON SCALP BOUNTIES IN PENNSYLVANIA By HENRY J. YOUNG* N THE early historic period of North America, scalping, ac- I cording to Mooney's account, was confined to the vicinity of the Iroquoian and Muskhogean tribes. Had it not been for the harndsomne rewards offered for scalps by the white men's govern- ments. the vindictive and gruesome practice might never have spread. It did spread, however, over most of the United States,' and for this phenomenon the government of Pennsylvania bears a degree of historical responsibility. Just where or when a bounty for scalps was first offered, is not clear. but certainly such bounties were being offered in New Eng- land during the first half of the eighteenth century.2 It is abundantly clear that Pennsylvania's government proclaimed general bounties for Indian scalps on three occasions, in 1756, in 1764, and finally in 1780. Moreover, under at least two of these proclamations, claims were presented and such claims were duly paid from the public treasury. V\hoever started it, by the 1750's nmost Americans grimly ac- cepted the ethics of scalp buying. We find that in 1753 Father LeLoutre, missionary to the Micmac Indians, advanced 1800 livres silver of Acadia to tribesmen who delivered to him eighteen scalps from the English settlements.3 Three years later, on the opposite side of the long border, we find young George Washington urging "Upon Governor Dinwiddie the payment to certain Virginia troops of a bonus for having brought in the scalp of one Ensign Douville. "*Dr. Henry J.
