Book Synopsis The Futrell Family of East Tennessee by : Terry L. Futrell
Download or read book The Futrell Family of East Tennessee written by Terry L. Futrell and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2016-10-30 with total page 104 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many false assumptions have been perpetuated through the years about the parentage of Etheldred Futrell, progenitor of the East Tennessee Futrells. The migration of the related John B. Walls family to Morgan County, Tennessee, has also been falsely portrayed. The author corrects these errors by presenting compelling evidence based on official records and DNA analysis. The history of the Futrell family in America is summarized, providing linkage back to Thomas Futrell, the first Futrell who came to America in 1679 as an indentured servant. The migration of John Martin, John B. Walls, and Etheldred Futrell from North Carolina to Knox County, Tennessee in the early 1800s, and then to Roane and Morgan Counties in the 1850s is documented. Finally, the first four generations of the Futrell family in East Tennessee are presented in detail supported by reference to official records and other reliable sources. A link to electronic records in the family tree is also provided.

Book Synopsis Family Diversity and Family Policy: Strengthening Families for America’s Children by : Richard M. Lerner
Download or read book Family Diversity and Family Policy: Strengthening Families for America’s Children written by Richard M. Lerner and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-09 with total page 182 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Family Diversity and Family Policy describes the dimensions of diversity which characterize the contemporary American family and discusses the implications for public policy and associated intervention programs linked to this diversity. The authors contend that if the programs and policies available to support families are to be most useful, they need to reflect the diversity of the families they intend to help. Beginning with a discussion of the historical and contemporary context of the American family, Family Diversity and Family Policy focuses on child poverty and argues that this topic may be usefully studied within the context of developmental systems theory. This theory systematically links the development of individuals to variations in their physical and social ecology, and is used as a framework for discussing: Contemporary challenges faced by parents charged with rearing adolescents, and the familial and societal issues that arise when the adolescents being reared are parents themselves. Current policy issues that arise from welfare debates in the United States and from recently-enacted welfare reform legislation. The importance for our nation of developing a comprehensive national youth policy. The authors draw implications for the design, delivery, and evaluation of diversity-sensitive policies and programs for families and youth, and offer a vision of how to link scholars, policy makers, and community members in multi-professional and multi-institutional collaborations promoting the positive development of American families and youth. Family Diversity and Family Policy is relevant to scholars and policy makers interested in human development, particularly of children and adolescents. In addition, it should be essential reading for practitioners and policy makers in government, private industry, and public and private social service organizations.

Book Synopsis The Contemporary American Family by : Teresa Chandler Sabourin
Download or read book The Contemporary American Family written by Teresa Chandler Sabourin and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2003-04-07 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "I find the book extremely attractive. The dialectical perspective provides a consistent avenue from which to address the diversity (structural, cultural, developmental, and functional) in Contemporary American Families. Whereas this perspective does not claim to solve the tensions in families, it offers marvelous insights into the nature and changing diversities in families. I believe this text is particularly well suited for reasonable discussion of serious issues and provides valuable insights into the nature of families and their functioning." --Vince Bloom, California State University, Fresno "Teresa Chandler Sabourin invites students to appreciate the mystery, complexity, and diversity of the contemporary American family. Resisting simplistic descriptions and normative descriptions, Sabourin challenges us to open our minds and hearts to the rich, humane variety of family connections as we search for ways to accommodate the competing demands and conflicting pressures experienced in our most cherished relationships. Starting from the source of her own experience, Sabourin addresses both the darker, abusive side of family relationships, as well as the lighter, spiritual side of intimacy and love. The Contemporary American Family successfully addresses the need for an accessible and teachable treatment of the dialectical perspective on close relationships. This is a book that will encourage students of family communication to respect diversity, question taken-for-granted assumptions, and share the pain and joy and of their own family experiences." --Art Bochner, University of South Florida Increasingly diverse in structure and culture, contemporary families defy explanation by many traditional, linear methods. In order to understand the enormous impact that diversity has on the behaviors and relationships within the family, scholars and students need a means to embrace, rather than solve, relational contradictions. The Contemporary American Family: A Dialectical Perspective on Communication and Relationships recognizes that families are both close and distant, stable and changing, amenable and uncontrollable. Teresa Chandler Sabourin employs a dialectical approach, acknowledging that a family′s contradictions and relational tensions may be the determining factor in its interaction. Writing in a direct and simple style, Sabourin uses this innovative theoretical position to address four types of family diversity: structural, cultural, developmental, and functional. Sure to stimulate discussion and further research, this provocative volume examines The dialectic process in the context of family communication and relationships The redefined, more inclusive American family Contemporary family structures Cultural diversity in the family Issues such as alcoholism, domestic violence, and divorce Spirituality within the family Designed as a supplemental text for upper-level undergraduate and graduate courses in Family Communication, The Contemporary American Family is also an invaluable resource for students in Family Studies and Women′s Studies courses.

Book Synopsis Family Stories and the Life Course by : Michael W. Pratt
Download or read book Family Stories and the Life Course written by Michael W. Pratt and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2004-04-26 with total page 470 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This edited book draws from work that focuses on the act of telling family stories, as well as their content and structure. The process of telling family stories is linked to central aspects of development, including language acquisition, affect regulation, and family interaction patterns. This book extends across traditional developmental psychology, personality theory, and family studies. Drawing broadly on the epigenetic framework for individual development articulated by Erik Erikson, as well as on conceptions of the family life cycle, the editors bring together contemporary examples of psychological research on family stories and their implications for development and change at different points in the life course. The book is divided into sections that focus on family stories at different points in the life cycle, from early childhood and the beginnings of narrative skill, through adolescence, young adulthood, midlife, and then mature adulthood and its intergenerational meaning. During each of these periods of the life cycle, research focusing on individual development within an Eriksonian framework of ego strengths and virtues is highlighted. The dynamic role of family stories is also featured here, with work exploring the links between family process, intergenerational attachment, and storytelling. Sociocultural theories that emphasize how such development is situated in the wider cultural context are also featured in several chapters. This broad lifespan developmental focus serves to integrate the exciting diversity of this work and foster further questions and research in the emerging field of family narrative. The book is intended primarily for researchers and advanced-level students in the fields of developmental and personality psychology, as well as those in family studies and in gerontology. It may also be of interest to those in the helping professions who are concerned with family therapy and family issues, and may--due to its content and illustrative material--have appeal to a wider market of the lay public. The chapters are written in a readily accessible style and the analyses are presented in a fairly non-technical way. Because family stories are charted across the lifespan, it would be a suitable companion book to a more traditional lifespan textbook in certain courses.
