Description:
Orig. pub. Richmond VA 1930. Reprinted 2002. Print on Demand Edition 2013. xviii, 644 pp., illus. In this extensive family history, the author tried to do more than write a mere record of births, deaths, and marriages. Working with wills, deeds, and biographical items, he endeavored to present a picture of an English family starting at the time of Domesday and following its fortunes to the 1930s. The Throckmorton family origins were at Throckmorton, Worcestershire, and they possessed land there that they had held at the time of the Norman Conquest. It is one of the Roman Catholic families of England but both John Throckmorton who settled in New England in 1631 and Robert Throckmorton who came to Virginia in 1637 were of the Protestant faith. Allied families include: Bynum, Besford, Wickliffe, Cocton, Brule´, Bonnycastle, Durvassal, Robinson, Spine, Olney, Pendleton, Vaulx, Barclay, Yates, Herbert, Blennerhassett, Woolley, Beckham, Courtney, Gifford, Louthe, Preston, Playter, Beaufo, Colston,…

Description:
Orig. pub. Raleigh 1920. Reprinted 1973. Print on Demand Edition 2010. (vi), 434 pp., map, index This is an account of the efforts of Baron Christoph von Graffenried, along with a partner, to settle a colony of German Palatines and Swiss in 1710 on the tongue of land he acquired between the Trent and Neuse rivers. It would be called New Bern in honor of his native home in Bern, Switzerland. The first one hundred pages of text is a substantive historical introduction by Editor Todd. That essay is followed by von Graffenried's own account in German with an English translation and parts of his French text and translation that differ from the German. The colonists could not have come at a more unfortunate time and von Graffenried's utmost efforts could do little to relieve the situation. The province was in the midst of internal strife and this trouble was barely settled before the Tuscarora Indian War broke out. Finally, in desperation, von Graffenried went to Virginia to try to arrange for their…
