Book Description
Excerpt from Records of the Colony of New Plymouth in New England, Vol. 1: 1633 1640 The volumes of Plymouth Records consist of the original minutes of proceedings at the General Court of that colony and of the Courts of Assistants, all held in the town of Plymouth. Consequently they con tain the Court Orders, grants of land, the laws, the judicial acts of the Courts, all recorded matters relating to the probate of wills and the administration of estates, deeds of land from the Indian aborigines, and the only evidences in relation to the landed property of the section of the Commonwealth included within the limits of that colony under its charter. Besides the above mentioned, there are lists of the freemen of the colony, and many of the early marriages, births, and deaths, which were returned to the colonial secretary for record by the town clerks of the several municipalities which were under its jurisdiction. There are also among these manuscript records others of great value, relating to the history of the ancient confederated colonies of New England - the original minutes and records of proceedings of the Commissioners of the United Colonies of the Massachusetts Bay, New Plymouth, Connecticut, and New Haven, in New England.

This Land Is Their Land
Author: David J. Silverman
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1632869268
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 529
Book Description
Ahead of the 400th anniversary of the first Thanksgiving, a new look at the Plymouth colony's founding events, told for the first time with Wampanoag people at the heart of the story. In March 1621, when Plymouth's survival was hanging in the balance, the Wampanoag sachem (or chief), Ousamequin (Massasoit), and Plymouth's governor, John Carver, declared their people's friendship for each other and a commitment to mutual defense. Later that autumn, the English gathered their first successful harvest and lifted the specter of starvation. Ousamequin and 90 of his men then visited Plymouth for the “First Thanksgiving.” The treaty remained operative until King Philip's War in 1675, when 50 years of uneasy peace between the two parties would come to an end. 400 years after that famous meal, historian David J. Silverman sheds profound new light on the events that led to the creation, and bloody dissolution, of this alliance. Focusing on the Wampanoag Indians, Silverman deepens the narrative to consider tensions that developed well before 1620 and lasted long after the devastating war-tracing the Wampanoags' ongoing struggle for self-determination up to this very day. This unsettling history reveals why some modern Native people hold a Day of Mourning on Thanksgiving, a holiday which celebrates a myth of colonialism and white proprietorship of the United States. This Land is Their Land shows that it is time to rethink how we, as a pluralistic nation, tell the history of Thanksgiving.
