Book Description
Literary critics frequently portray early Native American writers either as individuals caught between two worlds or as subjects who, even as they defied the colonial world, struggled to exist within it. In striking counterpoint to these analyses, Lisa Brooks demonstrates the ways in which Native leadersa including Samson Occom, Joseph Brant, Hendrick Aupaumut, and William Apessa adopted writing as a tool to reclaim rights and land in the Native networks of what is now the northeastern United States.

Family Maps of Guernsey County, Ohio, Deluxe Edition
Author: Gregory A. Boyd
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781420315325
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
236 pages with 68 total maps Locating original landowners in maps has never been an easy task-until now. This volume in the Family Maps series contains newly created maps of original landowners (patent maps) in what is now Guernsey County, Ohio, gleaned from the indexes of the U.S. Bureau of Land Management. But it offers much more than that. For each township in the county, there are two additional maps accompanying the patent map: a road map and a map showing waterways, railroads, and both modern and many historical city-centers and cemeteries. Included are indexes to help you locate what you are looking for, whether you know a person's name, a last name, a place-name, or a cemetery. The combination of maps and indexes are designed to aid researchers of American history or genealogy to explore frontier neighborhoods, examine family migrations, locate hard-to-find cemeteries and towns, as well as locate land based on legal descriptions found in old documents or deeds. The patent-maps are essentially plat maps but instead of depicting owners for a particular year, these maps show original landowners, no matter when the transfer from the federal government was completed. Dates of patents typically begin near the time of statehood and run into the early 1900s. What's Mapped in this book (that you'll not likely find elsewhere) . . . 2009 Parcels of Land (with original landowner names and patent-dates labeled in the relevant map) 91 Cemeteries plus . . . Roads, and existing Rivers, Creeks, Streams, Railroads, and Small-towns (including some historical), etc. What YEARS are these maps for? Here are the counts for parcels of land mapped, by the decade in which the corresponding land patents were issued: DecadeParcel-count 1800s149 1810s18 1820s415 1830s1119 1840s287 1850s4 1900s4 1920s3 1950s3 1960s5 1970s2 What Cities and Towns are in Guernsey County, Ohio (and in this book)? Abledell, Antrim, Barton Manor, Birds Run, Birmingham, Black, Blacktop, Bluebell, Boden, Brady, Browns Heights, Buckeyeville, Buffalo, Byesville, Cambridge, Cassell, Cassellview, Cedar Hills, Center, Chestnut Grove Cottage Area, Claysville, Clio (historical), College Hill, Colonial Heights, Coventry Estates, Craig, Cumberland, Derwent, Duch Addition, East Cambridge, East Shore Cottage Area, Eastmoor, Easton, Echo Point, Elizabethtown, Fairdale, Fairmont, Fairview, Fairview, Five Forks, Flat Ridge, Georgetown, Gibson, Greenwood, Guernsey, Helena, Henderson Heights, Hickory Grove Cottage Area, Ideal, Indian Camp, Jackson Special, Kimbolton, Kings Mine, Kipling, Londonderry, Lore City, Lucasburg, Mantua, Marysville, Meadow Village, Middlebourne, Morgan Manor, New Gottingen, North Salem, Northgate, Oakgrove, Oakwood, Odell, Old Washington, Oldham, Opperman, Pleasant City, Quaker City, Ridgewood Acres, Robins, Salesville, Seneca Lake Estates, Senecaville, Spencer Station, Spring Valley, Sunnymeade, Sycamore Hills, Toledoville (historical), Tyner, Walhonding, Warrentown, West Shore Cottage Area, Winterset

Book Description
“Extraordinary...beautifully precise...[an] earnestly ambitious debut.” —The New York Times Book Review “A wild, angry, and devastating masterpiece of a book.” —NPR “[A] descendent of the Dickensian ‘social novel’ by way of Jonathan Franzen: epic fiction that lays bare contemporary culture clashes, showing us who we are and how we got here.” —O, The Oprah Magazine “A book that has stayed with me ever since I put it down.” —Seth Meyers, host of Late Night with Seth Meyers One sweltering night in 2013, four former high school classmates converge on their hometown in northeastern Ohio. There’s Bill Ashcraft, a passionate, drug-abusing young activist whose flailing ambitions have taken him from Cambodia to Zuccotti Park to post-BP New Orleans, and now back home with a mysterious package strapped to the undercarriage of his truck; Stacey Moore, a doctoral candidate reluctantly confronting her family and the mother of her best friend and first love, whose disappearance spurs the mystery at the heart of the novel; Dan Eaton, a shy veteran of three tours in Iraq, home for a dinner date with the high school sweetheart he’s tried desperately to forget; and the beautiful, fragile Tina Ross, whose rendezvous with the washed-up captain of the football team triggers the novel’s shocking climax. Set over the course of a single evening, Ohio toggles between the perspectives of these unforgettable characters as they unearth dark secrets, revisit old regrets and uncover—and compound—bitter betrayals. Before the evening is through, these narratives converge masterfully to reveal a mystery so dark and shocking it will take your breath away.

The History of Brown County, Ohio
Author: Josiah Morrow
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780788404276
Category : Brown County (Ohio)
Languages : en
Pages : 328
Book Description
In 1876, Congress issued a joint resolution recommending the preparation of local histories of every town and county for preservation in the Library of Congress. The W. H. Beers & Co. publishing house was a prolific producer of such histories. From the original 1883 publication, which ran over 1,000 pages, Heritage Books, Inc. has already reprinted sections dealing with the specific histories of Brown County and each of its townships. This book presents Part V from the original volume, a collection of nearly 1,000 biographical sketches of prominent men in each of the Brown County townships. Many of the subjects were still alive at the time of the original publication, so the majority of the biographies focus on the mid- to late-1800s. The sketches vary in the amount of information given, but generally they include the names of the subject s parents with relevant information about family heritage and immigration to the United States, the names of his wife, their children, and his wife s parents. The subject s professional or occupational history is usually recounted as well as his educational attainments, and his social, religious, and political activities. A surname index has been added, in which such names as the following appear: Baird, Brown, Campbell, Cochran, Davis, Day, Devore, Dunn, Ellis, Evans, Jones, Marshall, Martin, Miller, Moore, Smith, Thompson, White, Wilson, and Young.
