The Wynne Family History
Author: David Wynne
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 778
Book Description
For anyone interested in family history this book is a must read. Compiled by amateur historian David Wynne, who was inspired to research his own family history, this book begins with a brief history of the Welsh royal lineage in the period of the 1500s and 1600s, and then recounts in stunning detail the Wynne family descendants of Thomas and Sarah Wynn (born in the 1750s). The author details the lives of many families, including the Barwell and Shearman families, who were closely connected to the Wynne family. This book also gives the reader the context of the environments they lived in, with accounts of the political backdrop that influenced their lives. David Wynne has painstakingly researched all the facts for this book over the last eighteen years, and has included an incredible amount of detail about the lives of his ancestors. This book covers in some detail, the Wynne family and their involvement with shoe industry in Stafford during the 19th century and also discusses the great industrial firm Platt Brothers Ltd, cotton machinery makers in Oldham, Lancashire, with information on some of the directors and founders of this great firm, including Wynne family members. The book travels the globe, from the UK to British North Borneo, and to America, Australia and New Zealand. Many members of the Wynne family had a love of travel and a desire to move to, and settle in, distant lands. The lives of Wynne family members are recorded in detail right up to 2021. Family dramas and scandals are unearthed, such as the affair and high profile divorce of Eleanor Margaret Wynne in front of a grand jury, and the subsequent international media coverage that ensued. The book also includes accounts of famous family members, such as Frances Hodgson Burnett, granddaughter of Mary Wynne and author of many books including Little Lord Fauntleroy and The Secret Garden. The book is illustrated with an incredible array of images spanning the centuries, both from historical records, and from personal Wynne family photo collections.

The Forgotten Botanist
Author: Wynne Brown
Publisher: U of Nebraska Press
ISBN: 1496229460
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 386
Book Description
WILLA Literary Award Winner in Creative Nonfiction 2022 Spur Award Winner 2022 Top Pick in Southwest Books of the Year New Mexico-Arizona Book Awards Finalist in Cover Design Honorable Mention in the At-Large NFPW Communications Contest The Forgotten Botanist is the account of an extraordinary woman who, in 1870, was driven by ill health to leave the East Coast for a new life in the West--alone. At thirty-three, Sara Plummer relocated to Santa Barbara, where she taught herself botany and established the town's first library. Ten years later she married botanist John Gill Lemmon, and together the two discovered hundreds of new plant species, many of them illustrated by Sara, an accomplished artist. Although she became an acknowledged botanical expert and lecturer, Sara's considerable contributions to scientific knowledge were credited merely as "J.G. Lemmon & wife." The Forgotten Botanist chronicles Sara's remarkable life, in which she and JG found new plant species in Arizona, California, Oregon, and Mexico and traveled throughout the Southwest with such friends as John Muir and Clara Barton. Sara also found time to work as a journalist and as an activist in women's suffrage and forest conservation. The Forgotten Botanist is a timeless tale about a woman who discovered who she was by leaving everything behind. Her inspiring story is one of resilience, determination, and courage--and is as relevant to our nation today as it was in her own time.
