Census of Jackson, Mississippi, Confederate Postmasters’ Provisionals Census of Jackson, Mississippi, Confederate Postmasters’ Provisionals Compiled by Francis J. Crown, Jr. Description and Notes A-JAC-MS-E01 JAC-MS-E01 JAC-MS-E01 The Jackson provisional markings The 3-cent provisional marking is known revalued for the 5-cent and 10-cent Confederate rates. Therefore, it has been assumed the 3-cent marking was also used as a provisional before 1 June 1861. There is no recorded “Paid 5” stampless marking for Jackson. This and the large number of 5- cent provisionals indicates the provisional marking may have been used to mark both mail paid at time of mailing (stampless) and to mark provisional envelopes This dual use of the 5-cent provisional marking is reinforced by the marking’s use on a folded letter and a cover with “charge box” docketing. Although this census lists over 60 different Jackson provisional covers others are recorded in the following censuses: Charles J. Phillips and Frank E. Hart in Surveys of the Confederate Postmasters’ Provisionals, edited by Francis J. Crown, Jr., Quarterman Publications, 1982. pp. 150-153, 464-465; and “Mississippi Postmaster Provisionals”, by F. W.

  • Secession As a Moral Imperative: White Southerners and Evangelical Theology
    SECESSION AS A MORAL IMPERATIVE: WHITE SOUTHERNERS AND EVANGELICAL THEOLOGY Pearl J. Young A dissertation submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2018 Approved by: William L. Barney Brandon L. Bayne W. Fitzhugh Brundage Kathleen DuVal Joseph T. Glatthaar © 2018 Pearl J. Young ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Pearl J. Young: Secession as a Moral Imperative: White Southerners and Evangelical Theology (Under the direction of William L. Barney) This dissertation explores the ways in which white Southerners used evangelical theology to rationalize secession as a moral imperative. The secession of eleven states from the Union in 1860 and 1861 ripped asunder its political bond between the federal government and the individual state legislatures. Yet the rhetoric of evangelical Christianity present in the political documents of secession begs the question of how white Southerners connected a political choice with their religious sensibilities. Even if politicians appropriated religious language for their own purposes, they did so because they spoke to an audience that engaged with the world on religious terms. This dissertation eXamines five specific aspects of Southern evangelical theology as each was used in the context of secession. Evangelical Christians did not always agree on a common rationale (or even on theological matters), but the aggregate of their debates reflect the depth of the Southern sense of sectionalism and the eXtent to which religious fervor spilled into the political sphere. Firstly, Southerners viewed their region as an eXample to the world of an ideal Christian society, a testimony brought into sharper relief with secession.

  • Cool Springs United Methodist Church
    Historical Sketch Of The Cool Springs United Methodist Church by R. Clinton Fields Written for Home-Coming Day The Nineteenth of August, 1984 COOL SPRINGS UNITED METHODIST CHURCH PREFACE This privilege to bring together in a short time - the history of Cool Springs Methodist Church - has been a glorifying experience. It seemed unsurrnountable, but with the help of many local church members, and others, the task has been gratifying. The actual problems in putting together a historical sketch has been well-expressed by Rev. John Kline, pastor of the Carthage Methodist Church (1945-49) who did a historical sketch for the Carthage Methodist Church in celebration of its one-hundred years in 1952: The history of a local Methodist church should be easy to trace and write, but, ..as a mater of fact, such is not the case. John Wesley kept records of many matters. He urged his Methodist Societies to keep careful records. The Methodist law-book, the Descipline, still gives explicit instructions for the writing of reports and keeping books - on the levels of the General Conference, the Jurisdictional Conference, the Annual Conference, the District Conference, the Quarterly Conference, have been made, with varying degrees of skill and completeness. But the great flaw in this system has been the failure to designate, at least with respect to the Quarterly Conference and the Local Church Conference, a definite place where the record-books shall be deposited and kept, for future use of those who need them. True, the Recording Steward is directed to keep the Quarterly Conference Record-Book, and the Secretary of the Church Conference is designated as the custodian of the records of that Conference.

  • Wadhams Genealogy, 1913
    Wadhamsgenealogy Mrs.HarrietWeeks(Wadhams)Stevens WADHAMS G ENEALOGY From t he painting by Paul K. M. Thomns. 1907 Precededy b a Sketch of the Wadham Family In England WITH I LLUSTRATIONS BY HARRIET W EEKS WADHAMS STEVENS it (MRS.

The data for this sketch was furnished by my uncle, the Right Reverend Edgar P. Wadhams. Later he obtained some further data and, on his becoming Bishop of Ogdensburg, he gave this ma terial to me with the request that I continue the work. During the past twenty-five years, but more especially during the past five years, I have pursued the task of obtaining all available information relating to those of the name of Wadhams in America and elsewhere. Not withstanding my best endeavors it is probable that a con siderable number of those who should have been included in the work have not been found. The lineage of a few families by the name of Wadhams has been traced to a certain extent, but their connection with the main branch of the family has not yet been established. The records of these will be found in the Unconnected Lines. In t he preparation of the work I have freely consulted and availed myself of information from a considerable number of genealogical works to which I am much in debted.
