The Bingham Family in the United States
Thomas Bingham, progenitor of his line of the Bingham family in North America, was born in Sheffield, Yorkshire, England in 1642, and migrated to Connecticut Colony between 1652 and 1659 with his mother, Anne Fenton Bingham. Thomas was the youngest son of Thomas, Sr. and his second wife, Anne Fenton. On December 12, 1666, at age 24, Thomas married Mary Rudd, who was 17. Mary was probably a daughter of Jonathan Rudd and Mary Metcalf. After living 33 years in Norwich, Thomas moved his family to the newly settled town of Windham, Connecticut. Children of Thomas and Mary were: Jonathan, Ann, Abigail, Nathaniel, Deborah, Samuel, Joseph and Stephen. Mary died in 1726, age 77. Thomas died in January 1730 at age 88. Both are buried in Windham Center Cemetery. Descendants lived in Arizona, Connecticut, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Vermont, and elsewhere.

The Rule of Law
'A gem of a book ... Inspiring and timely. Everyone should read it' Independent 'The Rule of Law' is a phrase much used but little examined. The idea of the rule of law as the foundation of modern states and civilisations has recently become even more talismanic than that of democracy, but what does it actually consist of? In this brilliant short book, Britain's former senior law lord, and one of the world's most acute legal minds, examines what the idea actually means. He makes clear that the rule of law is not an arid legal doctrine but is the foundation of a fair and just society, is a guarantee of responsible government, is an important contribution to economic growth and offers the best means yet devised for securing peace and co-operation. He briefly examines the historical origins of the rule, and then advances eight conditions which capture its essence as understood in western democracies today. He also discusses the strains imposed on the rule of law by the threat and experience of international terrorism. The book will be influential in many different fields and should become a key text for anyone interested in politics, society and the state of our world.
