William LEARNED (1590-1646) Descendants of William Learned and Goodith Gilman by Generation 26 Jul 2020 William LEARNED (1590-1646) 1. William LEARNED1,2,3 [1373] was born on 1 January 1589/90 in Bermondsey, Surrey, England.1 He died on 1 March 1645/46 in Bermondsey.4 He was buried in March 1645/46 in Watertown, Middlesex, Ma.1 He married Goodith GILMAN [1374]. Selected excerpts from: The Learned Family, compiled by William Law Learned in part from the papers of the late Joseph Gay Eaton Learned, Joel Munsell's Sons, 1882. "WILLIAM LEARNED1. The first admission to the present First church of Charlestown was, according to its records, as follows: "1632, 10 mo., day 6, William Learned and Goodith, his wife, were admitted." (N. E. H. & G. Reg., vol. xxxiii, page 191). It has been said, but whether upon good authority is not known, that William Learned came over in Feb., 1624. But this seems improbable, since his son Isaac was born that month, and his daughter Mary was buried in England, July, 1625. In 1634, May 14th, he was admitted freeman. His name appears as one of the signatures to the town order for the appointment of eleven selectmen, February 13, 1634-1635. (Frothingham's Charlestown, p. 50.) On Feb. 13, 1635-6, he was appointed a selectman. About this time he is mentioned with twenty-eight others as having "willingly surrendered for the good of the town part of their land on Mystic side." In 1640 a movement was on foot to settle Woburn. The first meeting for the purpose was held at the house of Mr. Thomas Greene, December 18th; and town orders were there signed by thirty-two persons, and among them by William Learned, (spelled by the clerk Lernedt). He was one of the seven who, the 14th of August, 1642, formed the first church of Woburn, (Woburn town records; Sewall's Woburn, p. 20; Johnson's Wonder Working Prov., p 17.) On the 24th of November, it is recorded that he freely gave up his lot for the use of the town, which gave it to Thomas Richardson, and agreed to give to William Learned the like for quantity and quality. It was afterwards ordered that he should have seventy-two acres laid out to his son Isaac, in recompense for the sixty-six which he had thus given. On the 13th of April, 1643, he was chosen constable and one of the selectmen; and again February 9, 1644-5. Some additional land was given him in Sept., 1645. Another order, two months later, says that he was to have six acres and a half for a house lot and farm in meadow, and the residence, being sixty acres, "the one-halfe in forest field and the other halfe in playne field." He died March 1, 1646, two days before the selectmen were chosen for the third term; and thus he held the offices of selectman and constable at his death. (Qu. 1646-7; as he is named in the town rate, 22d of 10 mo. 1646.) Judging from the age of his daughter, Sarah, he must have been born as early as 1590; and would thereefor have been at least 56 at his death. He left a widow who had an annuity. On the 4th of October, 1648, his son "Isack Lerned was discharged of his accompt consarning his father, who, deseased, constable." The account had been settled in part, Sept. 26. The following is from: Genealogies of the Families and Descendants of the Early Settlers of Watertown, Massachusetts, 1855 by Henry Bond. "LEARNED (Lernot, Larned, Larnit, &c.) WILLIAM LEARNED,(*) was admitted freeman, May 14, 1634, and his name, and that of his wife GOODETH [? Judith, or good wife], are the first two on the list of members of the present First Church, of Charlestown. "1632, 10 mo., day 6, William Learned and Goodeth, his wife, were admitted." The following extract from the town records of Charlestown. is an evidence of how highly he was esteemed for his intelligence and virtue: "1638, 26, 2d month, Mr. Increase Nowell, Mr. Zachariah Sims, Mr. John Green, Mr. John Harvard, Left. Ralph Sprague, and William Learned, were desired to consider of some things tending towards a body of Lawes." Records, p. 20. He was a subscriber to the town orders for Woburn, drawn up at Charlestown, Dec. 18, 1640; was one of the seven original members of the church in Woburn, which was gathered, Aug. 14, 1642-3; was one of the first board of Selectmen, chosen Ap. 13, 1644, and was re-elected the following year. He was also elected constable (who was in those days the collector of taxes), for the years, 1644 and '45. He d. in Woburn, Mar. 1, 1645-6, two days before the third election of town officers. He left a wid., who had an annuity during her widowhood. His accounts, as collector, were in part settled by his son Isaac, Sept. 29, 1646, and finally settled, Oct. 4, 1648. The name (Learned), has been varied much by the bad orthography of early times, as Lerned, Lernot, Larned, Larnit, &c., and many of his descendants now write it, Larned.". 1 Produced by Ken Wright with Family Historian Descendants of William Learned and Goodith Gilman by Generation 26 Jul 2020 Goodith GILMAN1,2,4 [1374] (also known as JUDITH) was born in 1594 in Bremondsey, Surrey, England.1 She died on 24 June 1661 in Malden, Essex, MA.1 She was buried in MA.1 From: The Learned Family, compiled by William Law Learned in part from the papers of the late Joseph Gay Eaton Learned, Joel Munsell's Sons, 1882. "The first admission to the present First church of Charlestown was, according to its records, as follows: "1632, 10 mo., day 6, William Learned and Goodith, his wife, were admitted." (N. E. H. & G. Reg., vol. xxxiii, page 191). This name Goodith, is said by Rev. Samuel Sewall to be, not a corrupt spelling of Judith, but an old English name, from the Saxon, Goditha. It was common at that time. In one instance, at least, about this period a child, baptised Goodith, was, however, always called Judith. (Col. Joseph L. Chester.)".

Melrose Free Press, Inc. 19H . OLIVER B, MUNROE MAYOR INAUGURAL ADDRESS OF OLIiZER B. MUNROE MAYOR OF MELROSE DELIVERED JANUARY 6th, 1913 Mr. President and Members of the Board of Aldermen, Fellow Citizens : In assuming the duties of the office to which I have been elected by the will of the people, I am keenly mindful of its responsibilities and the seriousness of the service which I am called upon to render. The people are demanding and have the right to demand that those whom they elect to public office shall “make good” and it is a gratifying sign of the times that they are holding those whom they thus honor, to a more rigid accountability for the trust reposed in them. The chief executive who faithfully and efficiently serves the peo- ple must constantly have before him what the best interests of the community as a whole- require, what is most conducive to its material welfare, its growth and prosperity along right lines, involving of course all questions of conveniences and improvements, a wise husbanding of its resources, its increase in enlightenment and morality, the promo- tion of law and order, the safeguarding of life and property, and the amelioration of conditions under which human life is lived. It is evident that the successful meeting of these requirem mts in- volves the putting forth of the best effort of which one is capable.

  • 1893 Swami Brings Modern-Day Swamis to Annisquam
    1893 Swami Brings Modern-Day Swamis to Annisquam For the celebration of the 150th anniversary of Vivekananda's birth, the Vedanta Societies of Boston and Providence joined with the Annisquam Village Church in an interfaith service on July 28, 2013. The service was filled with a wonderful energy. Saffron robes and languages ranging from French to Bengali make annual appearances at the Annisquam Village Church in Gloucester. Modern-day Hindu Pilgrims visit to pay homage and walk in the steps of Swami Vivekananda, the first Hindu monk in America, who spoke from the Church's pulpit in 1893, just before he made history at the first meeting of the World Parliament of Religions in Chicago (an adjunct event to the Columbian Exposition) as representative of Hinduism. Eloquent and, at the time, exotic, Vivekananda mesmerized his audiences both here and in Chicago, winning new respect for and interest in the religions of the East. He started the Vedanta Societies in America to spread his message of harmony of religions and inherent divinity of the soul. Vivekananda remained in Gloucester for several weeks during his two visits. First as the guest of John Henry Wright, a Greek professor at Harvard who helped Vivekananda make the arrangements for his Parliament appearance; and then he stayed at the Annisquam residence of Alpheus Hyatt, whose marine biology station on Lobster Cove was the first iteration of the present-day Woods Hole Oceanographic Institute. Hyatt was the father of Gloucester's renowned sculptor, Anna Hyatt (later Huntington), who would have been 17 at the time of the Swami's visit.

  • Swami Vivekananda's Mission and Teachings
    LIFE IS A VOYAGE1: Swami Vivekananda’s Mission and Teachings – A Cognitive Linguistic Analysis with Reference to the Theme of HOMECOMING Suren Naicker Abstract This study offers an in-depth analysis of the well-known LIFE AS A JOURNEY conceptual metaphor, applied to Vivekananda’s mission as he saw it, as well as his teachings. Using conceptual metaphor theory as a framework, Vivekananda’s Complete Works were manually and electronically mined for examples of how he conceptualized his own mission, which culminated in the formation of the Ramakrishna Math and Mission, a world-wide neo-Hindu organization. This was a corpus-based study, which starts with an overview of who Vivekananda was, including a discussion of his influence on other neo- Hindu leaders. This study shows that Vivekananda had a very clear understanding of his life’s mission, and saw himself almost in a messianic role, and was glad when his work was done, so he could return to his Cosmic ‘Home’. He uses these key metaphors to explain spiritual life in general as well as his own life’s work. Keywords: Vivekananda; neo-Hinduism; Ramakrishna; cognitive linguistics; conceptual metaphor theory 1 As is convention in the field of Cognitive Semantics, conceptual domains are written in UPPER CASE. Alternation Special Edition 28 (2019) 247 – 266 247 Print ISSN 1023-1757; Electronic ISSN: 2519-5476; DOI https://doi.org/10.29086/2519-5476/2019/sp28.4a10 Suren Naicker Introduction This article is an exposition of two conceptual metaphors based on the Complete Works2 of Swami Vivekananda. Conceptual metaphor theory is one of the key theories within the field of cognitive linguistics.

Bush was initially compiled from two sources: The ancestry of his father, President George Bush, as printed in Gary Boyd Roberts, Ancestors of American Presidents, First Authoritative Edition [Santa Clarita, Cal.: Boyer, 1995], pp. 121-130.

The contribution of the undersigned consists mostly in collating and renumbering the material cited above, adding considerable information from the decennial censuses and elsewhere, and HTML-izing the results. The relationships to other persons (see the NOTES section below) are intended to be illustrative rather than exhaustive, and are taken mostly from Mr. Roberts' Notable Kin and Ancestors of American Presidents books, with extensions, where appropriate, from John Young's American Reference Genealogy and from my own, generally unpublished, research.
