William Finney Junkin (1831-1900), a Presbyterian minister. He was the grandson of the Rev. George Junkin (1790-1868), founder and President of Lafayette College in Easton, Pennsylvania, and a President of Washington College (later Washington and Lee University) in Lexington, Virginia. His aunt, Rev. William Finney Junkin‟s sister, Elinor (1825-1854), was the first wife of Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson (1824-1863). Junkin attended Kenyon College and Columbia University, where he received a law degree in 1887. He practiced law in New York City until 1898. He was appointed General Attorney of the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad in 1899. He resided in Chicago and New York City, but retained close ties with Lexington and Rockbridge County. His sister, Elinor Jackson Junkin Cox Latane (1867-1939), purchased “Mulberry Hill” in 1903 where she lived with their mother. The property was originally built by Junkin‟s ancestors and changed hands a number of times in the 19th century. The house still stands on the outskirts of Lexington. Junkin first showed interest in genealogy in 1878 when he wrote to his mother‟s cousin, William Winston Fontaine (1834-1917), seeking information about the family. By the early 20th century he was corresponding regularly and at length with relatives regarding family history. He completed a large genealogy chart in 1908, and continued pursuing personal information on the families represented on the chart as well as more distant connections. He married Emily Hutchison Crane (ca. 1866-n.d.) in Paris, France in 1913. On 15 September 1919 Junkin was appointed a member of the Board of Contract Adjustment with the rank of Lieutenant Colonel in the Army. The board was created as a court of final appeals in adjusting claims against the U.S. Government arising after the end of World War I. Junkin lived in Washington, D.C. from 1920 until his death on 6 May 1928. Francis T.A. Junkin also had connections to the Rust family in Loudoun County, Virginia. His niece, Lily Lawrence Rust Fendall (1880-1973), was the granddaughter of Armistead Thomson Mason Rust (1820-1887) of “Rockland” Leesburg, Virginia and his first wife, Eliza Southgate Lawrence (1828-1958). Junkin‟s sister, Elinor, was first married to Lewis Berkeley Cox (1856-1901) of “Stoke” in Aldie, Virginia. Their son, William Junkin Cox (1896-1989), was married twice, first to Ida Lee Edwards (1898-1950) and second to Jane Rust (1918-1977). Both women were granddaughters of Armistead Rust and his second wife, Ida Lee (1840-1921). William Junkin Cox‟s descendants still live in Leesburg. 3 Sources: Ancestry Library Edition, Social Security death index, http://www.ancestrylibrary.com Foundations of the Past: The WPA Historical Inventory Project in Virginia, Library of Virginia, http://lva1.hosted.exlibrisgroup.com/F/?func=file&file_name=find-b- clas15&local_base=CLAS15 Francis T.A.

SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The collection includes 9 boxes, with a total of 188 folders covering family information primarily of the Junkin, Anderson and Aylett families. Numerous other relations and connections appear in the collection including Alexander, Dandridge, Henry, Spotswood, West, Moore, Macon, Reid, and Glasgow among others. Oversized materials include a letter, genealogy research, and six 19th century newspapers. There is also a rolled family chart, with a photocopy for research use. 4 The collection contains primarily letters to and from Francis T.A. Junkin containing genealogical information, but also a considerable amount of personal family information and letters from other family members, the oldest dated 1798. There are also extracts of wills, deeds and tomb inscriptions dating as far back as 1517. Box 6 contains miscellaneous information unrelated to genealogy but of personal interest to Junkin. It also contains photographs, some made from glass plate negatives, which are stored separately as part of Thomas Balch Library‟s visual collection (see VC 0038). Box 7 contains eight folders tied together containing copies of original letters found elsewhere in the collection. The numbers in parentheses on some folders refer to Junkin‟s filing system. They are incomplete and have no meaning in this present compilation. Correspondents and references include: Anderson, Col. William, 1764-1839 Anderson, Grace Thomas, 1800-1831 Anderson, Margaretta, 1799-1819 Anderson, William A., 1842-1930 Aylett, Martha Dandridge, 1721-1747 Aylett, Patrick Henry, 1878-1943 (great-grandson of Patrick Henry) Aylett, William A., 1833-1900 Cox, Lewis Berkeley, 1856-1901 Cox, William Junkin, 1896-1989 Fendall, Lily Lawrence Rust, 1881-1973 Fishburn, Julia Junkin, 1835-1915 Fontaine, Martha Dandridge, 1795-1875 Fontaine, William Winston, 1834-1917 (great-grandson of Patrick Henry) Glasgow, Catherine “Kitty,” 1797- n.d.

In July of that year he was ordained by the Presbytery of St. Lawrence, and assigned as a missionary to the little towns of Evans Mills and Antwerp in Jefferson County, New York. Under the vivid preaching of this ex-lawyer a wave of revivalism began to sweep through the whole region.^ Following the revival of 1824-27, Finney carried the religious awakening into Philadelphia, New York City, and Rochester, New York.

  • Inaugural Power Point
    Miami Presidents From 1810 to the Present Day Miami University Archives Joseph Van Horne Miami’s First President? 1810 Robert Bishop is generally considered Miami’s first president. However, between Miami’s chartering in 1809 and opening in 1824, the Board of Trustees normally appointed a “President” to preside over meetings and act, on occasion, as a quasi-executive officer. Records of the period typically refer to “The President and Board of Trustees of Miami University,” implying that they were separate entities. This is an excerpt from the minutes of the 1810 Board meeting, which named Joseph Van Horne as Miami’s first “President”. Robert H.

CATTELL BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH. In this memoir of William Cassady Cattell, a brief bio- graphical sketch may be a fitting preface. It will serve as an outline and framework for the various contents of the volume and give them order and coherency. Here are ad- dresses in eulogy of his character and achievements by fellow laborers in his different fields of service; memorial minutes and resolutions by faculties, trustees, and boards of directors of the several institutions with which he was identified ; tributes by associations and ecclesiastical courts of which he was a member ; one of many letters of personal sympathy and one of many articles from the public press : all these bearing on important periods or phases of his full and many-sided life. It may serve to simplify and unify these if they are referrible to a connected narrative of the successive periods and various fields which they describe. William C. Cattell was born in Salem, New Jersey, August 30, 1827. He was descended from a family in the Province of New Jersey that had some prominence in the struggle for 7 ; 8 MEMOIR OF WILLIAM C.
