Download or read book Stamper Footprints written by Betty Stamper Latham and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 158 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "To go back in time and know our ancestors would be the greatest of all adventures." With this sentence, Betty Stamper Latham begins her book and it was with this principle that she has created more than just a genealogy of the Stamper family. Ms. Latham personally spent over five years researching this book. She visited many of the places where the Stamper families lived and where they forever rest in peace. She spent hours sifting through microfilm and pouring through archival evidence to develop this clear chronicle of eleven generations of the Stamper family. Ms. Latham does more than just duplicate the dry facts of her research. She combined what she learned of her family with her knowledge of general history and used a little imagination to bring to life such events as a marriage, a night in a tavern or hitching a ride on a boxcar. The book begins in 1660 with John Stamper, a probable immigrant from England, and ends at the time of publication. Like many of the early colonists, the Stampers wandered around their new country, settling for a while and then moving on. After originally settling in Middlesex County, Virginia, the Stampers moved to Amherst County, Virginia. After about ten years they moved again, this time to Rowan County, North Carolina. By the early nineteenth century there were Stampers all over southern Virginia and North Carolina as well as Kentucky and other states west. Many Stampers played roles in some of our country's most significant historical chapters, as well. Jonathan Stamper, Sr. had sons who fought in the Revolutionary War and many Stampers fought in our nation's Civil War. There are approximately 1,800 persons named in this book. Most of the maiden names are included, as well as the names of parents when available. There is an every-name index for the ease of researching names. There are also several old photos of Stampers, pictures of places related to the family's history, a map of pertinent areas and copies of some of the land grants issued to the Stampers.

Download or read book Pioneer Settlers of Grayson County, Virginia written by Benjamin Floyd Nuckolls and published by Genealogical Publishing Com. This book was released on 1975 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Grayson County is famous in southwestern Virginia as the cradle of the New River settlements--perhaps the first settlements beyond the Alleghanies. The Nuckolls book is equally famous for its genealogies of the pioneer settlers of the county, which, typically, provide the names of the progenitors of the Grayson County line and their dates and places of migration and settlement, and then, in fluid progression, the names of all offspring in the direct and sometimes collateral lines of descent. Altogether somewhere in the neighborhood of 4,000 persons are named in the genealogies and indexed for ready reference.

Download or read book Invisible Founders written by Lynn Rainville and published by Berghahn Books. This book was released on 2019-06-14 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Literal and metaphorical excavations at Sweet Briar College reveal how African American labor enabled the transformation of Sweet Briar Plantation into a private women’s college in 1906. This volume tells the story of the invisible founders of a college founded by and for white women. Despite being built and maintained by African American families, the college did not integrate its student body for sixty years after it opened. In the process, Invisible Founders challenges our ideas of what a college “founder” is, restoring African American narratives to their deserved and central place in the story of a single institution — one that serves as a microcosm of the American South.

Book excerpt: Most families have their share of stories and folklore. In the case of author Billy Boyd Lavender, one of the most intriguing of these stories revolves around a murder mystery from 1905the deaths of two of his ancestors and the mob lynching that soon followed those deaths. Told from information provided by Lavenders mother, Ruby Neal Hardigree Lavender, and with support from historical documentation, Honorable Heritage recalls events that occurred on a forty-one-acre tract of land in Watkinsville, Georgia, that would become the farm where Lavender grew up. There, his great-great-grandparents were murdered in the course of a robbery. In response, the premature actions of a mob muddied the truth of events for years to come and resulted in the death of an innocent man. In addition, this work of narrative nonfiction presents a chronology of Lavenders family history, dating back to colonial America and the Revolutionary War. It also explores his personal history, sharing recollections of times gone by. Focusing on the early twentieth century, Honorable Heritage offers a detailed family history and a true story of murder and a miscarriage of justice.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Glazebrooks succeeded in extracting those documents pertaining to Hanover County that survived the burning of Richmond in April 1865 and that were not published in William Ronald Cocke's Hanover County Chancery Wills and Notes. The surviving materials consist of a great many deeds, wills, inventories, accounts, letters, depositions, etc., pertaining to Hanover County for the colonial and early Federal periods. Many of the suits, in particular, stem from the period prior to the French and Indian War. One of the richest sources examined by the Glazebrooks were the files of the United States District Court at Richmond. With references to nearly 5,000 early inhabitants of Hanover County, this hard-to-find sourcebook will unquestionably be in great demand among researchers.
