(See page vi for more information.) These our stories are told, "in grateful remembrance of those our ancestors, who,through evil report and loss of fortune, through suffering and death, maintained stout hearts, and laid the foundation of our country." The National Society of The Colonial Dames in America in the State of Alabama shares a common goal with sister Dames across the nation in the active preservation, maintenance and presentation of l1istoric buildings. In the objectives of this society, we set the goal: "... to preserve and restore historic buildings connected with the early history of this country." The Conde-Charlotte Museum House is an Alabama Dames properly located in Mobile, Alabama. The Dames purchased the house from the Mobile Historic preservation Society In 1957 and set about renovating it. In 197 4, the refurbished Conde-Charlotte was finally opened to the public. Although the actual dates that the original structure of the Conde-Charlotte Museum House was built are not definitely known, Nicholas Holmes, respected Mobile architect with a special interest in historic architecture, believes that the main portion of the building dates back to 1720, possibly earlier. Upon completing a detailed study of the structure of the house, Mr. Holmes concluded that, because of the similarity of brick and mortar contained in the house to that used in the construction of Fort Conde, along with the use of "whip sawn" lumber, some parts of the house were built around the 1720s. Subsequent to his initial dating, Mr. Holmes discovered a map from the period of Spanish occupancy (1802-1813) that showed a structure labeled "King's Magazine" on the present location of the Conde-Charlotte House. The building is thought to have later served as a jail, then a courthouse, before being bought, renovated, and turned into a residence by the Kirkbride family in 1849; they owned the house until 1926. After first being bought by the Mobile Historic Preservation Society, it was sold to the NSCDA in Alabama. In addition to housing all the ancestry records of the Alabama Dames, the Conde-Charlotte Museum House is used to educate the public about the importance of our ancestors, those who have gone before us. The house showcasesthe history of Mobile under the five flags that have flown over her; Spanish, French, English, Confederate, and United States of America. Rooms in the house contain furnishings of the different periods. For example, the front east parlor represents a commandant's office and is furnished with English pieces dating to the time of English occupancy of Mobile, 1763-1780. The dining room is called the American room (1813), and contains a period North Carolina corner cupboard as well as a silver tea service made by Simon Cauldron, who was a silversmitb in New York before moving to Demopolis, Alabama as a member of the French vine and olive colony. The heritage of the National Society of Colonial Dames of America in Alabama is displayed in our museum house, a proud symbol of our linkage to our distinguished and cherished ancestors.

  • David Duncan and His Descendants
    THE STORY OF THOMAS DUNCAN AND HIS SIX SONS BY KATHERINE DUNCAN SMITH (Mrs. J. Morgan Smith) NEW YORK TOBIAS A. WRIGHT, INc. PRINTERS AND PUBLISHERS 1928 FOREWORD ESEARCH in Duucan genealogy was begun in 1894 and has been R carried on industriously to this date through Court records, VVills, Deeds, Bible records and tombstone inscriptions which have furnished proof and have affixed the seal of authenticity to much of the recorded data. Interested kinspeople have contributed from their store of family traditions some of which have been found to agree with certain facts and may be considered true. Many letters have been received, principally from descendants of Daniel and Stephen Duncan, extracts of which appear in this history and are mute evidence of the interest the writers feel in their lineage and their desire to worthily live and teach their chil­ dren to hold to the standard set by their ancestors. That there are errors in this publication there can be no doubt, but not of my making for: "I cannot tell how the truth may be; I say the tale as 'twas said to me." (Sir Walter Scott.) The frequent appearance of my name and the very personal nature of this book is warranted, somewhat, by the fact that all along the thought has been it would be distributed, mainly, among the descendants of Daniel and Stephen Duncan, between whose families there is very close relationship because of the intermar­ riage of many cousins. The stretch of years between 1894 and 1928 is a long one and it is not possible for me to estimate the time I have given to my self-imposed task, but if this book shall meet with favor and be prized by those into whose hands it may fall, the hours, days and weeks devoted to The Story of Thom,,as Dun­ can and His Si.r Sons will be remembered by me as pastime.

With plain and easily understood directions for the preparation of every variety of food in the most attractive forms. Comprising the result of a life-long experience in catering to a host of highly cultivated tastes. BY- -^==^.^.j^/^^i::- San Pi^angisgo: WOMEN'S CO-OPERATIVE PRINTINO OFFICE. 1883. Copyrighted according to Act of Congress, A. D. 1883, by H. J. Clayton. PREFACE. One of the sacred writers of the olden time is reportei to have said: " Of the making of manj' books, there is no end." This re- mark will, to a great extent, apply to the number of works published upon the all important subject of Cookery. The oft-repeated saying, attributed to old sailors, that the Lord sends victuals, and the oppo- site party, the cooks, is familiar to all. Notwithstanding the great number and variety of so-called cook- books extant, the author of this treatise on the culintiry art, thoroughly imjiressed with the belief that there is ample room for one more of a thoroughly practical and every day life, common sense character— in every way adapted to the wants of the community at large, and looking especially to the preparation of healthful, palatable, appetizing and nourishing food, both plain and elaborately compounded—and hi the preparation of which the very best, and, at the same time, the most economical material is made use of, has ventui-ed to present this new candidate for the public approval.
