The Hines Bush Family
Author: Wilhelmena Rhodes Kelly
Publisher: Wheatmark, Inc.
ISBN: 1587363909
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 186
Book Description
The Hines Bush Family tells one family's tale of the American experience and aims to assist researchers who wish to pursue their own Barnwell, South Carolina roots. Recounting the challenges, choices, and triumphs of successive generations of people of color, Wilhelmena Kelly relates distant examples of wisdom and leadership that, when examined, reveal the shared history of many of today's Southerners. This volume comes with an indexed guide to old church cemeteries and long-forgotten Barnwell burial grounds, providing a name-by-name list of ancient county residents, many who have descendants now living in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, Chicago, and Washington, D.C., to name just a few. It also includes the only known index to 1860 Slaveholders in Barnwell County, widening the trail to further discovery.

Hard Scrabble to Hallelujah, Volume 1: Bayou Terrebonne
Author: Christopher Everette Cenac Sr.
Publisher: Univ. Press of Mississippi
ISBN: 1496811089
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 968
Book Description
Winner of a 2017 Louisiana Endowment for the Humanities Book of the Year Award This book represents the first time that the known history and a significant amount of new information has been compiled into a single written record about one of the most important eras in the south-central coastal bayou parish of Terrebonne. The book makes clear the unique geographical, topographical, and sociological conditions that beckoned the first settlers who developed the large estates that became sugar plantations. This first of four planned volumes chronicles details about founders and their estates along Bayou Terrebonne from its headwaters in the northern civil parish to its most southerly reaches near the Gulf of Mexico. Those and other parish plantations along important waterways contributed significantly to the dominance of King Sugar in Louisiana. The rich soils and opportunities of the area became the overriding reason many well-heeled Anglo-Americans moved there to join Francophone locals in cultivating the crop. From that nineteenth century period up to the twentieth century’s side effects of World Wars I and II, Hard Scrabble to Hallelujah, Volume I: Bayou Terrebonne describes important yet widely unrecognized geography and history. Today, cultural and physical legacies such as ex-slave-founded communities and place names endure from the time that the planter society was the driving economic force of this fascinating region.
