Descendants of Robert Stanfield Descendants of Robert Stanfield Generation No. 1 1. ROBERT1 STANFIELD1 was born 11 Mar 1729, and died 1811 in Halifax County, Virginia. He married ELIZABETH LOWRY. Notes for ROBERT STANFIELD: The Stanfields are descended from the ancient Stanfield Family of Britain. The name is Norman and one of the oldest surnames. Yorkshire is the place where the name is first recorded in Britain. Their lands were granted to them by William, the Duke of Normandy for their distinguished service at the Battle of Hastings in 1066 A. D. The family is part of the Vikings who landed on the Orkney Islands and Northern Scotland in about 870 A. D. The name appears in the Domesday Book which is a census of most of England at that time. There are around forty variations in the spelling of the Stanfield name: Stanfeld, Stansfield, Standfield, as well as Stanfield. Jordan Stansfield was the first Lord of Stansfield in the valley of Todmorden and was the son of Wyons Maryons. His son was John who was succeeded by Richard, then Edmund, Ralph, Henry, William, then Thomas in the 14th century. His grandson named Thomas acquired Heptonstall in 1508. Then his grandson acquired Sowerby in 1587. When the migration began to America, the Stanfields were among them. There were several early Virginia Stanfields. Symon Stanfield was listed as immigrating to Virginia by Captain Adam Thoroughgood in 1635 possibly on the Jon & Dorothy, 1634. He was one of 105 persons who were brought in by the captain who received 5,350 acres in Princess Anne County for his efforts. Lawrence Stanfield was recorded as immigrating in 1646 by Elizabeth and Ratchell Robins in Northampton County. The majority of the early Stanfields in Virginia seem to have been located in Halifax County. The Halifax County, Virginia will of Robert Stanfield: In the name of God amen.

  • Scholarship & Award Breakfast
    15TH ANNUAL Scholarship & Award Breakfast Tuesday, April 10, 2012 Dear friends, Good morning! Sherry and I are thrilled to welcome you to the 15th annual Scholarship and Award Breakfast. This is one of our favorite events — what a delight to see our students come together with our scholarship donors and supporters, you who help our students make their plans and dreams come true. At last year’s breakfast, Nelson Carpluk ’12 spoke of the impact scholarship funds had on his ability to complete his schooling. He talked about the motivation he derived from regular communication with his scholarship donors. And he talked about his plans for the future. The University of Alaska Fairbanks is in the business of helping develop a strong Alaska workforce; build intellectual strength; and make a place in this busy world for quiet inquiry. This is heady stuff, and none of it could happen without students’ hard work and donor support. Thank you for all you do to make it possible. Enjoy the morning.

  • College for All? Is There Too Much Emphasis on Getting a 4-Year College Degree? Research Synthesis
    DOCUMENT RESUME ED 431 986 CG 029 345 AUTHOR Boesel, David; Fredland, Eric TITLE College for All? Is There Too Much Emphasis on Getting a 4-Year College Degree? Research Synthesis. INSTITUTION Wisconsin Univ., Madison. Medical Center. SPONS AGENCY National Library of Education (ED/OERI), Washington, DC. REPORT NO NLE-1999-2024 PUB DATE 1999-01-00 NOTE 96p. PUB TYPE Information Analyses (070) Numerical/Quantitative Data (110) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC04 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS Academic Ability; *Bachelors Degrees; *College Graduates; Community Colleges; Debt (Financial); Dropouts; Higher Education; *Labor Market; *Research; Salaries; School Holding Power; Tables (Data); Vocational Education ABSTRACT Over the years, larger and larger portions of high school graduates have enrolled in 4-year colleges. Although many people view college as essential to success in the labor market, the movement toward 4-year colleges also has its critics. These critics contend that the public has come to believe that almost all high school graduates should go to college. This "college movement" is sweeping many marginally qualified or unqualified students into college, and hence the average ability of college students has declined. As a result of these declining ability levels, college noncompletion and dropout rates have increased. Many noncompleters do poorly in the labor market and would have been better advised to pursue other education and training options. These noncompleters are also burdened by unnecessary debts from college loans. Even college graduates are not doing very well in the labor market. This research synthesis examines the evidence for these arguments. Based on published literature identified through traditional bibliographic sources, ERIC, a variety of internet sources, research reports, and Ph.D.

  • Sir John Antwisel Wyons Marions Sir John Townley Wyamarus Whalley * Temp
    THE ENTWISLE FAMILY – Their ancestry according to B. Grimshaw By Peter Stanford in continuation of his earlier Review of the above work. This will attempt to follow the indicated lines of descent in more detail. Part I - The Early Ancestors? A speculative chart based on the information given by Grimshaw from claimed pedigrees of other families. In an attempt to aid examination and analysis, this has been arranged by the three generations mentioned so that apparent contemporaries appear on the same line. Sir John Antwisel Wyons Marions Sir John Townley Wyamarus Whalley * temp. Wm. I of Townley temp. Wm. I (1066-1087) lord of Stanfeld lord of Whalley Thomas Entwissel Jordan = a daughter Eustas Sir Bryan Upton = Godytha = Tiburia *dau.of Sir John A. *dau.of Sir John Antwisel Elizabeth = John temp.Wm. Rufus (1087-1100) (GAP: From this point there is a gap in Grimshaw’s narrative until Robert de Entwissel of 1212. I will pick up from there in Part 2.) Locations and communications: The most obvious meeting point between these various places would be in the vicinity of Burnley, which is where Towneley is situated, on its eastern side, twelve miles from Entwistle “as the crow flies”. Horses don’t fly, but it still looks like a short enough journey for a lusty young man on horseback using cross-country tracks; or a combination of them and the Roman road which runs right through Entwistle. There is a track of prehistoric origin, since much upgraded following much the same line, and which seems to have remained in continuous use, running from Whalley to Burnley, Towneley, Mereclough, then skirting Stansfield Moor and on to Heptonstall and beyond.

    VOLUME 4 ELECTRONIC JOURNALS OF THE U.S. INFORMATION AGENCY NUMBER 2 CHANGINGCHANGINGTheThe AMERICAMERICA:A: nited tates U S opulation nn ransition P II T JUNE 1999 FROMFROM THETHE EDITORSEDITORS hroughout our history, going back more than two centuries, the United States populace has been an ever-evolving phenomenon. New immigrants have flocked to this nation from scores of countries. Pioneers have blazed trails across the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans, and over land, to various parts of the United States. TSubsequently, their families and descendants have followed those paths to new homes, new occupations and new self worth as U.S. citizens. And as one generation passes from the scene and a new one springs forth, the population invariably is affected. Even in our day, we have seen the “baby boomer” generation, born just after World War II, drive U.S. society for much of the second half of this century. Now, thanks to longer life expectancy and their own dynamism, seniors are assuming an impressive role in the United States as the century ends and a new one begins. This Journal presents fundamental demographic details about the changing U.S. population at this moment in history, the U.S. census, new immigration trends and the growing impact of seniors, among other subjects, and offers resources for further exploration of the topic. ■ U.S.SOCIETY&VALUES / JUNE 1999 2 ELECTRONIC JOURNALS OF THE U.S. INFORMATION AGENCY VOL.4 / BUREAU OF INFORMATION / U.S. INFORMATION AGENCY / NO. 2 [email protected] JUNE 1999 CHANGING AMERICA: THE UNITED STATES POPULATION IN TRANSITION FOCUS 5 THE UNITED STATES: A NATION OF DIVERSITY AND PROMISE BY BILL CLINTON As the United States moves into a century in which it may become the world’s first truly multiracial, multiethnic democracy, with an expanding senior citizenry as well, President Clinton reflects on the challenges posed by this diversity.
