Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From pre-colonial settlement through the industrial age to modern times, Worcester, Massachusetts has played a vital role in the development of this nation. Lying in the headwaters of the historic Blackstone River, invention and industry flourished very early here. The growth of the carpet industry in South Worcester fostered by M. J. Whittall led to the growth of an English Enclave there as hundreds of immigrants found employment and financial security. This book tells the little known story of English immigrants who were pulled to America by the promise of opportunity, and found it in South Worcester. Through the prosperous times of the late 1800s and early 1900s they held on to their English heritage as they moved to the new American suburbia, experienced two world wars and the Depression, and raised American-born children. The 1940s and 1950s saw their American grandchildren, including the authors, move away and break their last connections with the carpet mill and its community.

Book Synopsis Armenians of Worcester by : Pamela Apkarian-Russell
Download or read book Armenians of Worcester written by Pamela Apkarian-Russell and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2000 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the beginning of the twentieth century, millions of immigrants came to the United States in search of a better life and greater opportunities for their families. However, the Armenians who came to Worcester between 1894 and 1930 were escaping a devastating genocide that tore their country apart. What they found and how they became an integral part of Worcester culture and history is the story found in Armenians of Worcester. Worcester was a mecca for many Armenians, who had escaped with little more than their lives. There were mills that provided work, and there was a growing number of Armenians who were struggling to make sense of what had happened in their homeland. The first Armenian Apostolic church and the first Armenian Protestant church in America were both in this city, and both helped to build new foundations for a community that was to enrich the city and slowly resurrect the art, theater, music, and food that celebrates the Armenian culture. The Armenian picnics that were an integrating influence in the early years continue even today as a gathering of clans and all who join in on these days of celebration.

Book Synopsis The Records of Oxford, Massachusetts by : Mary DeWitt Freeland
Download or read book The Records of Oxford, Massachusetts written by Mary DeWitt Freeland and published by Genealogical Publishing Com. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This impeccably prepared guidebook teaches us how to find ancestors on both the Maine and New Brunswick sides of the Upper Saint John River Valley, a region that ultimately became home to the indigenous Maliseets, Acadians, French-Canadians, Irish, a few Scots, and a few (mostly English) Loyalists. The extant records of the valley (found in both local and distant archives) extend from 1792 to the 20th century, and, following his historical introduction, Mr. Findlen devotes the bulk of his narrative to an inventory of them. The researcher will find separate chapters devoted to each of the following record categories: church registers (probably the most valuable of all records), vital records, marriages, cemetery records, censuses, land records, will and probate documents, newspapers, as well as the various record repositories themselves.

Book Synopsis The Eliot Tracts by : Michael P. Clark
Download or read book The Eliot Tracts written by Michael P. Clark and published by Praeger. This book was released on 2003-11-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Eliot Tracts collects for the first time a series of 11 documents published in London between 1643 and 1671 that describe missionary work by the British among the Indians in New England. Written by John Eliot, Thomas Shepard, and other intellectual and political leaders among the colonists, these tracts constitute the most detailed and sustained record of missionary activity by the English in the New World in the first century of settlement. They are also one of our richest sources of ethnographic information about the Indians of Southern New England in the 17th century as recorded by the British settlers. In addition to the tracts, the volume contains two letters written by John Eliot that argue for the millennialist significance of the missionary work and so situate the missionaries' project within one of the most important theological debates of the time. The introduction establishes the historical and theological context in which the tracts were written and published. The text of the tracts and letters is that of the original 17th-century publications, including interlinear English/Algonquian translations. Functional variations in relative font size and spacing have been retained to reproduce the visual organization of the original documents, though simplified and regularized across all the tracts to give the volume a visual conformity and coherence. An index allows readers to trace the record of particular towns and individual proselytes and missionaries across the 30 years covered by the tracts, and to follow the contributions of the different authors as they recount their experiences over that period.
