Pieces of Me
Author: Randi Parker
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 1312657774
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 422
Book Description
This book is a biography and memoir of the Parker family originating in Prince Frederick, (Calvert County) Maryland depicting the life and the legacy of where it all began. Growing up, there was never a dull moment listening to her grandparents (Richard David Parker and Annie Olivia Gross Parker) tell stories of their childhood memories including having to walk several miles to a small one room school, most people in their time only had an eighth grade education, how blacks and whites weren't treated equally and had to attend separate schools and use separate public bathrooms and water foundations. The computer and telephone was non-existent in their day which seems to be absolutely hard to function without them in present day. Familiar occupations were laborers such as tobacco workers, farmers, fisherman and having 12-18 children was the "norm" in many families. There was no television and many people's favorite pastime was visiting close family.

A History of the Westchester Cooperative and its Neighbors
Author: Peter T. Higgins
Publisher: Dog Ear Publishing
ISBN: 0692053565
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 92
Book Description
In 2016, Peter T. Higgins started to read and research in-depth the history of the land and buildings now occupied by the Westchester, the Cathedral West, 3900 Watson Place NW, the Colonnade, and the seven townhouses on Watson Place in Washington, DC. In the process, he discovered several surprises that upended some long-believed stories and likely started some new ones. Almost all the facts, for instance, surrounding the story of the magnificent gates at the entrance to the Westchester from Cathedral Avenue were overturned when the author’s research connected him to the English Trust managing the Copped Hall estate—the original source of the Victorian gates. With maps, photos and personal anecdotes (the author’s father is part of the history), a neighborhood’s story unfolds from the 1700 land grants to today. It’s a story that includes a king (Charles I), a president (FDR), even Irving Berlin’s Madam, Perle Mesta.
