To Be Frank and Earnest
To Be Frank and Earnest By: David K. Meyers Frank Malloy's desire to know about his father results in finding more than he is willing to immediately accept because he discovers his newly found family is more different than he ever imagined. The fictional story of Frank's paternal family is historically factual and accurate. The documented information interwoven into this tale is meant to illustrate how legal systemic racial hypocrisy influenced the life decisions of the real and fictitious characters in this story. What makes the story unique is the amount of fully verifiable information from official sources such as court and census records. Although many if not most African-American families have similar stories that emanate from slavery, this is one of the fewer stories that can be fully documented back into the slave era, making it very unique. The relevance is that it contributes to today's growing discussions regarding the racial attitudes embedded in modern American society. It is the author’s hope that this book contributes positively in this national discussion in an entertaining yet enlightening manner.
Intestates and Others from the Orphans Court Books of Monmouth Co., N.J., 1785-1906
Dunmore's War of 1774 was the culmination of a long series of disputes between settlers and Native Americans in western Virginia and Pennsylvania. In an effort to quell the increasingly violent Indian incursions, Virginia Governor John Murray, the Earl of Dunmore, carried on a successful retaliatory campaign known as "Dunmore's War." This book presents a history of that war through the use of primary documents selected from the mass of manuscript historical material in the famous Draper Collection at the Wisconsin Historical Society. Numerous footnotes throughout the volume provide a wealth of biographical information, as do the lists of muster rolls and biographies of field officers at the end of the book.
