Book Description
Excerpt from Records of the Moravians in North Carolina, Vol. 13: 1867-1876 This volume 13 is yet another addition to the publication series Records of the Moravians in North Carolina. The series was begun in 1922 by the North Carolina Historical Commis sion, later named the Division of Archives and History and now the Office of Archives and History. Records of the Moravians has provided scholars, genealogists, and casual readers with firsthand, almost daily accounts of life in North Carolina stretching back to colonial times. These accounts were written by ministers of the Moravian Church, and although they were involved in church affairs, they also had a concern for their neighbors and for events in the wider world. Volume 13 is a close companion to volume 12, since both deal with momentous periods in North Carolina history. Volume 12 covers 1856-1866, which includes the Civil War. Volume 13 encompasses the years 1867-187 6, the aftermath and recovery from the war and Reconstruction. With volume 13 we follow the accommodation of whites and blacks as they adjust to new roles following the end of slavery. The war tattered economy slowly mends, then suffers setback. The two communities of Salem and Winston show renewed growth, and Salem Congregation's Board of Trustees can hardly lay out streets and name them fast enough. A community in eastern Forsyth County bands together to fight the evils of alcohol and incorporates as Kernersville. A new age dawns with the railroad advancing through our fields and forests, that were never wont to have their quiet thus disturbed! And slowly sectional bitterness is set aside, so that with America's centennial in 187 6 the Fourth of July can once again be celebrated.

Book Description
Excerpt from Records of the Moravians in North Carolina, Vol. 6: 1793-1808 During the last years of the eighteenth century and the first years of the nineteenth century the Moravians in Wachovia continued their ambitious building program. The boys' Anstalt, the new house for the congregation Vorsteher, and the Salem church were erected under the supervision of Rev. Frederic William Marshall, who taught young Frederic Christian Meinung the art of drawing house plans so that he would be able to carry on that part of the work. Marshall died in 1802, and the building of the house for the Boarding School for girls was supervised by Rev. Samuel Stotz; the erection of the Bethania church was handled locally, with some assistance from Bishop Carl Gotthold Reichel. The decade and a half covered by this volume was a time of nominal peace in America, but with a tense undercurrent Of unrest. The Napoleonic wars were raging in Europe; there was friction with the Barbary States, with England, etc., and no one knew when the United States would be drawn into armed conflict. Commerce was interrupted by war conditions and by several epidemics which swept the country, north and south. The industries of Salem fared fairly well, but the lack of currency was a serious handicap, which at one time was met by having the store issue little promissory notes, which could be used in making change. The opening of the Boarding School-for girls brought to Salem the leading men of North Carolina, and a number from adjacent states, who came to place their daughters in the Moravian school, or to visit them during their sojourn there, and incidentally learned to know Salem and the ideals and aims of the Moravian school and town. Others came to avail themselves of the services of Dr. Vierling, whose fame was rather widely spread. A reflex from the general unrest appeared in the attitude of some of the Moravian members, especially those who wished to marry outside the bounds of the Moravian church, and this led to the loss Of certain men and women who were not willing to submit to the rules which they had promised to follow when they were admitted into church fellowship. On the other hand, after a rather dry and discouraging period, certain Of their young men showed great promise of future usefulness within the church circle.
