Clemens Family CHRONOLOGY !46 1610 - 1912 THE Clemens Family CHRONOLOGY !46 1610 - 1912 FIRST EDITION 1914 NEW YORK WILLIAM M. CLEMENS ., , Publisher 45 and 49 William Street Copyright, 1914 By WILLIAM M. CLEMENS All Rights Reserved THE CLEMENS FAMILY CHRONOLOGY THE CLEMENS FAMILY In this volume upwards of one hundred different Clemens family lines are represented, including those whose forefathers emigrated from Ger­ many, Holland, England, Wales and Ireland. No complete genealogy of any one particular Clemens line has thus far been printed, and I doubt if any such work has ever been compiled in manuscript. This Chronology therefore will prove to be the basis for such genealogies of the Clemens family which may be compiled in future years by the generations still to come. All variations of spelling, other than the Clement family, have been included, such as Clemens, Clemmens, Clemons, Clemmons, Clem­ ins, Clemmins, Clemans, Clem.mans, Clemence, Clemense and Clemenz. The name Clement is a distinct one and has no connection with names without the "t." As dates are the foundation for all genealogical records, the compiler has purposely omitted a large amount of available material to which were attached neither the year, month, nor day. The fact that John married Mary, or that William was born, with no date accompanying the information, makes the record unreliable and incomplete. Hence the omission of many family records, fur­ nished by numerous members of the Clemens race. · These corrected omissions and new data will be inserted in future and enlarged editions of this work. Readers are cordially invited to contribute names and dates for the next edition of the Chronology. W. M. C. NEW YoRK CITY, 1913.

Captain Nash thereupon with true devojion set to work and with indomitable perseverance, perfected the work, spending money, time and labor without stint in the difficult task. To him, therefore, the friends of the University are deeply indebted for the improved form and completeness of this memorial of their Alma Mater. Nor must it be forgotten that venerable Alumni, seated in the highest seats of honor, and of young men just entering upon life's career, soldiers with a glorious record in the annals war, and diligent workers in peaceful pursuits, old pupils cast by fate upon distant shores, and happy sons of Virginia who have never left their native land—all have cheerfully and promptly aided in the great work. But for the efficient assistance thus rendered by kind friends, and the indefatigable efforts of Captain Nash, the publication would have been impossible. University of Virginia. 1878. SCHELE DeVERE.

  • Wheeling Germans in the Civil War Era Ken Fones-Wolf ABSTRACT
    Caught between Revolutions: Wheeling Germans in the Civil War Era Ken Fones-Wolf ABSTRACT On the evening of October 11, 1860, a troop of mostly German “Wide Awakes” paraded their support for Abraham Lincoln in the north end of Wheeling. At Colonel Thoburn’s house, the German Company C of the Wide Awakes received a wreath for its valiant support of Republicanism. As the demonstration worked its way through the streets, opponents of the “Black Republicans” responded by throwing stones at the rear of the line. Three more times, the parade ranks broke to fight off attacks, before speedily reforming their parade and returning to safer quarters. Approvingly, the Wheeling Intelligencer praised the Wide Awakes who “stood their ground like men who know their right.” 4 KEN FONES-WOLF / CAUGHT BETWEEN REVOLUTIONS ARTICLE “Wheeling, Virginia, Showing the Suspension Bridge and Embarkation of the German Rifles, Captain Plankey, 1861.” Sketch by J. A. Faris, from the Oglebay Mansion Museum Institute, Wheeling, W.Va. On the evening of October 11, 1860, a troop of mostly German “Wide Awakes” paraded their support for Abraham Lincoln in the north end of Wheeling. At Colonel Thoburn’s house, the German Company C of the Wide Awakes received a wreath for its valiant support of Republicanism. As the demonstration worked its way through the streets, opponents of the “Black Republicans” responded by throwing stones at the rear of the line. Moving further up Main Street near the First Ward Hose house, the paraders found one intersection blocked. When they stopped to remove the barriers, a group of “ruffians” hurled stones and bottles while others pored in behind the Wide Awakes to set the trap.

  • Methodists, Secession, and the Civil War in Western Virginia, 1845-1872
    Enemies of the State: Methodists, Secession, and the Civil War in Western Virginia, 1845-1872 DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Matthew Tyler Foulds, M. A. Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2012 Dissertation Committee: Dr. Randolph A. Roth, Advisor Dr. Alan Gallay Dr. John Brooke Copyright by Matthew Tyler Foulds 2012 Abstract Situated on the contested border between the North and South, western Virginia is an ideal case for analyzing how ministerial leaders inspired disaffected citizens. Western Virginians, relegated to the fringe of a state political structure dominated by eastern Virginia‘s slaveholding oligarchy, believed that their political system had failed them. They felt powerless to institute the political and economic reforms necessary to develop their region in the image of free-soil Ohio and Pennsylvania. Unable to seek redress through their political leaders, westerners turned to the traveling ministers of the Methodist Episcopal Church (MEC) to voice their discontent. MEC ministers actively defended western interests and cloaked them in a moral legitimacy that broadened their appeal to previously apathetic, isolated residents. Their ministry drew a fierce response from their opponent, the Methodist Episcopal Church, South (MECS). The MEC repelled these attacks and by 1861 far outpaced the MECS in members and political influence and boasted a following larger than any political party in the region. When conservative political leaders abandoned their offices and embraced the Confederacy upon the outbreak of the Civil War, MEC itinerants filled the void in political leadership, held western Virginia in the Union, and championed its statehood.

  • Chapters from My Autobiography
    Mark Twain Chapters from My Autobiography 1 PREFATORY NOTE.—Mr. Clemens began to write his autobiography many years ago, and he continues to add to it day by day. It was his original intention to permit no publication of his memoirs until after his death; but, after leaving "Pier No. 70," he concluded that a considerable portion might now suitably be given to the public. It is that portion, garnered from the quarter-million of words already written, which will appear in this REVIEW during the coming year. No part of the autobiography will be published in book form during the lifetime of the author. —EDITOR N. A. R. INTRODUCTION. I intend that this autobiography shall become a model for all future autobiographies when it is published, after my death, and I also intend that it shall be read and admired a good many centuries because of its form and method—a form and method whereby the past and the present are constantly brought face to face, resulting in contrasts which newly fire up the interest all along, like contact of flint with steel. Moreover, this autobiography of mine does not select from my life its showy episodes, but deals mainly in the common experiences which go to make up the life of the average human being, because these episodes are of a sort which he is familiar with in his own life, and in which he sees his own life reflected and set down in print. The usual, conventional autobiographer seems to particularly hunt out those occasions in his career when he came into contact with celebrated persons, whereas his contacts with the uncelebrated were just as interesting to him, and would be to his reader, and were vastly more numerous than his collisions with the famous.
