Barksdale Family History and Genealogy

Category : Reference
Languages : en
Pages : 662
Book Description
Excerpt from Barksdale Family History and Genealogy: With Collateral Lines Six years ago, while visiting my brother, I came across an old copy Of the pamphlet on the Barksdale Family by Miss Hubert. With the idea of revising and bringing down to date my own line, principally for the benefit of my three young nieces, I began the necessary re? Search. My investigations soon became so involved with other lines that it was necessary to extend the scope of the work originally planned, and several members of the family prevailed upon me to endeavor to compile the complete history and genealogy of the entire family. The compilation Of a complete genealogy of a family of ten, or more, generations, including therein all of the female lines, is almost a lifetime work for a single individual and would require many volumes to encompass it. The within work is by no means a complete genealogy in this sense, nor is it claimed to be. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Liberty, a Better Husband
Author: Lee Virginia Chambers-Schiller
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780300039221
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 304
Book Description
“For liberty is a better husband than love to many of us.”—Louisa May Alcott This sensitive account focuses on the women who chose to remain single in antebellum America. Based on a study of the lives and writings of over one hundred Northeastern women, it describes the reasons why the rejected marriage and the joys and frustrations they encountered in adhering to the tenets of the cult of “Single Blessedness.” Lee Chambers-Schiller sketches the historical forces that allowed middle- and upper-class daughters to leave home in search of personal and economic independence, and she portrays the constrictions of married life from which these women fled. Single women found their own families to be sources of both pain and pleasure, for no matter what their age or position in the world, unmarried females remained daughters with dependent status, their lives continually shaped by the conflicting pulls of work and family. Yet these families—especially sister relationships—provided many of these women with love and intimacy. In fact, an extraordinary number of single sisters pursued join careers: the Weston sisters were activists in abolitionist causes; Emily and Elizabeth Blackwell both practiced medicine; Alice and Phoebe Cary became writers. By demonstrating how these women asserted themselves as individuals, Chambers-Schiller presents them as among the first to articulate the value of female autonomy and as pioneers in expanding the boundaries of women’s progress toward equality.
