  • Downton Abbey and the Northwest Ordinance
    Downton Abbey and the Northwest Ordinance Viewers of the popular British series Downton Abbey may recall the initial episode that set in motion all the frantic efforts to keep the estate in the family and have a suitable marriage for the aloof but beautiful Mary Crawley. The lovely Mary was pledged to marry her cousin Patrick but all the plans for this arranged nuptial were drowned along with the Titanic upon which Patrick had been aboard. Not only were Mary’s marital hopes dashed, but the future of Downton Abbey suddenly became uncertain since the Laws of Primogeniture and Entail complicated inheritance details of property owning families that had no sons. Here’s a quick review of these laws: Primogeniture ensured that the eldest son in a family inherited the largest portion of his father’s property upon the father’s death. The practice of entail, guaranteeing that a landed estate remain in the hands of only one male heir, was frequently practiced in conjunction with primogeniture. When there was no son to inherit the property, it was to go to the closest male relative. These laws existed in Europe for many years and was a sure recruitment tool for the church and the military as a place for those younger sons. Since Lord Grantham was blessed with three daughters and no male heirs, the title and the property would no longer remain in the hands of the immediate family. Conveniently for the plot, the distant cousin, handsome Matthew Crawley, was brought in and, after the usual ups and downs of soap operas, fell in love and married Mary.

Through the work of many, I am pleased to have shared this document with you since 2012, and could not be prouder of the improvements and accomplishments of the historic Wheeling Police Department. It is my sincere honor to represent the membership of the Wheeling Police Department in this report and it remains my distinct pleasure to serve as the City of Wheeling’s Police Chief. During 2017, we truly started to see the positive impacts of Geographic Policing and Intelligence Led Policing. Our focused efforts on high crime areas paid dividends and made impacts in those areas while adhering to our core values. Also in 2017, we continued to work below our allocated staffing levels, however we did make some progress throughout the year and hope to continue that trend in 2018. Nine new officers joined the ranks of the WPD this year. With staffing levels improving, we should be able to continue the positive impacts on crime in Wheeling as well as further Chief of Police specializing our department. Again, this year, we continued to observe Shawn Schwertfeger the horrible effects of the opioid and drug problem plaguing our area.

Michael Anslinger, RPA Principal Investigator January 28, 2009 Lead Agency: West Virginia Public Service Commission, Case #.: 05-1590-E-CS West Virginia State Historic Preservation Office FR #.: 06-147-GB-23 MANAGEMENT SUMMARY Cultural Resource Analyst, Inc. conducted a Phase I archaeological survey for the proposed Beech Ridge Wind Energy project and associated Transmission Support Line in Greenbrier and Nicholas counties, West Virginia. The survey was completed under contract with Potesta & Associates, Inc. on the behalf of Beech Ridge Energy LLC. The records search for this project was completed on July 17, 2008, and the field investigation was conducted between August 25 and September 26, 2008. The area for the Phase I survey was considered the direct Area of Potential Effect. The direct Area of Potential Effect to archaeological sites was defined as the footprint of proposed ground disturbing activities, which includes the development of a wind turbine power generating facility, new access roads, access roads requiring upgrade, a substation, an operation and maintenance facility, and a transmission line. Systematic survey resulted in the identification of six newly recorded archaeological sites; 46Gb445, 46Gb446, 46Gb447, 46Gb448, 46Gb449, and 46Gb450.

  • History of Hancock Ciounty; Virginia and West Virginia
    HISTORY of HANCOCK COUNTY • Virginia and West Virginia o Sacramento Branch Genealogical Library BY JACK WELCH FIRST PRINTING © Copyright, 1963, by Jack Welch All rights reserved under International and Pan-American Copyright Conventions. Published in Wheeling, West Virginia, by The Wheeling News Printing & Litho Co. orewor* The physical features of Hancock County can be described quickly and easily. It is the northernmost county in West Virginia, bounded on the north and west by the Ohio River, on the east by Pennsylvania, and on the south by Brooke County. It is the smallest county in West Virginia with 88.55 square miles. It has three muni­ cipalities (Chester, New Cumberland, Weirton), three magisterial districts (Butler, Clay, Grant), and 37 voting precincts. Its agri­ cultural and industrial products include iron, steel, chinaware, pottery, bricks, fire clay, sheet metal, tin products, apples, dairy foods, and livestock. Hancock County, like any other inhabited area of the world, is more than a tiny block of land furnishing a livelihood for several thousands of people. It is a land that is built upon the labor, the ideals, the lives, and the deaths of those who have gone before. It is a forest turned into a farm, a farm turned into a town, and a town turned into an industrial site employing thousands of people. It is a man chopping a tree in a virgin forest, it is a woman taking up a "fie to protect her family from Indians, it is a man building a school, it is a man building a factory. All these things are Hancock County, as much of a reality as the topographical and statistical elements.

  • Obituaries & Death Notices
    Obituaries & Death Notices Steubenville Jefferson County, Ohio 1880-1884 By Leila Francy INTRODUCTION This book holds records from 1880-1884, a period of five years. Originally these notes were copied directly from the newspapers quoted onto 3 x 5 file cards. This process took place over a period of several years. Eventually these cards took up so large amount of storage space that I determined to concentrate the information into book form. Unfortunately I began this consolidation when my sight was beginning to fade, so that proof reading was poorly done, and consequently the chance of copying errors were thus multiplied. My intent in preparing these cards was not to include all information contained in the papers, but to provide enough information so that the reader could determine which references were worth looking up in the original papers or in the concentrated books and boxes of clippings I had prepared. In these collections, it is often possible to find 2 or 3 mentions of the person on the same page, so care should be taken to find them all. Information given sometimes varies, so it will be necessary to give extra consideration to some of these. Leila S. Francy At the end of each entry are notations such as "Bk. pp, 12, 16." These notations refer to books and files which are in the author's personal collection. Complete information from these citations are available on various Steubenville newspapers. These are available on microfilm at the Schiappa Branch Library, Steubenville, oH. -1- ABERCROMBIE, mrs. Elizabeth, ae 76 yrs., a former resident of Steubenville, died at the Infirmary.
