Beginning with a boom: Bibliographic essay for last six posts

I excerpted this from the original post on the WordPress version of this blog, where this, and the previous post are in one document.

For this chapter, I used Nathan D. Jensen’s page on frenchempire.net, “French Expeditions to Ireland 1796-1798,” to give a description of the French invasions in Ireland. Other sources which can be helpful in learning more about this are a “Diary of an expedition [of] Humbert’s Army of Ireland, 1798” on http://www.iol.ie/~fagann/1798/conaught.htm, and Edwyn Jones’s An Invasion that Failed: The French Expedition to Ireland, 1796 to name two possible sources. On the French invasion, I also used information noted on page 89 of DK’s World History Atlas. For the description of County Tipperary in 1805 I extrapolated from the map titled “Trade and industry in the 18th century” on page 82 of the Times Concise Atlas of World History to form a description of that area. I also used information from the Wikipedia page of Ballysheehan not because I trust Wikipedia but because I put together the page in late November 2017, so I know it is accurate.

I used a number of original sources for this chapter derived from records requested from the Warren County Record Center including photocopies of: the 1865 and 1875 state censuses, specifically for Chester, Warren County, NY; page 540 of Smith’s 1885 History of Warren County, pages 181-183 of Bridging the Years – Glens Falls with photos of the Methodist Episcopal Church; cover page for case to NY Supreme Court of Samuel T. Guilford v. Joseph B. Mills, Feb 5, 1892; Warren County Court of Minutes of Common Pleas, pp 389 relating to Thomas and John Mills; Warren County Court of Minutes of Common Pleas, p 562; John Mills application for naturalization, Apr 17, 1838; John Mills affidavit for naturalization, Sept 18, 1841; John Mills application for naturalization, Apr 17, 1838; Edward Mills affidavit for naturalization, Oct 16 1841; Margaret E Mills naturalization agreement, Apr 21, 1864; Benjamin Bibby affidavit for naturalization, Oct 2 1844; Edward Mills affidavit for naturalization, Sept 2 1842; George Bibby affidavit for naturalization, Oct 17, 1844; Robert Bibby application for naturalization, Aug 9, 1840; and Robert Bibby affidavit for naturalization, Oct 16 1844.

I also rely on records digitized by Family Search within their Ireland Tithe Applotment Books, 1814-1855 collection. Specifically see: microfilm no #256672 for Owen Bibby in Newcastle, Newcastle, Tipperary, Ireland; microfilm no #256669 for Samuel Bibby in Moyaliff, Drumbawn, Tipperary, Ireland and for Thomas Biby in Mowney, Gortanacy, Tipperary, Ireland; microfilm no #256,661 for Thomas Biby in Mowney, Gortanacy, Tipperary, Ireland; and microfilm no #256494 for Nicholas Bibby in Crohane, Terma & Garrysalla, Tipperary, Ireland. All of these are within their “Applotment books, abt. 1824-1840” on the Family History Catalog.

For the paragraph on family names, I used the online database of the “Oxford Dictionary of Family Names in Britain and Ireland” on Oxford Reference and webpages on the British Surnames’s website for “Bibby” and “Mills.” For other information on the Bibby family I used information provided by certain resarchers on the Find A Grave entries for Thomas Lyndop Bibby (memorial #13693709), Margaret Johanna Shaw (memorial #13694080), Elias Bibby (memorial #67270336), Thomas Bibby (memorial #13694111), his wife Anne (memorial #20505398), entries for Thomas and Ann’s son, Samuel B. (#74875511), Eliza (#67203817) (her husband John Oliver Richards #148230281, son Nicholas Dennis #123356488 and his wife Margaret #123356191), Benjamin (#100856163), and Robert Jacob (#74522529). The same goes for his wife Rachel (#74523420), their daughter Ann (#67270337), Joseph Byron (#67070994), and William John (#74492369). I also used the memorials of Mary Elmina “Mae” Gaffield (#67071006), Sarah Anna Bibby (#111047408) who married Alvin Snell (#111028709), Martha Jane “Mattie” Bibby (#67070988) who married Edgar Wells (#67071008), Leona Fern Wells (#86703244), Gordon H. Wells, Sr. (#86703231), Arlo A. Wells (#86703214), Jean Tiffany (#86703237), and Edward Mills Bibby (#67070998). For the Bibby family also helpful was genealogy.com’s forum entries for the Bibby family.

For the information on the Mills family, I used Find A Grave memorials of the following people: Margaret A. Bibby (#67244813), John Rand Mills (#67244534), Thomas M. Mills (#67056977), Margaret Gray (#89274750), and Isaac Mills II (#67245035). I also used Family Research Group webpage titled “Emigration, Immigration & Naturalization Records,” and well-sourced Ancestry family trees were also used, but not too often!

For original records, I also used the “County Tipperary Records,” specifically the index of the 1766 religious census & transcript of the Tithe Applotments for Ballysheehan Civil Parish in 1827, The Irish National Archives’s PDF titled “Sources in the National Archives for researching the Great Famine,” within this narrative, and the “surname index by Surname” provided by connorsgenealogy, among other sources. I also used a page on the Warren County Historical Society’s website titled “History of Warren County” for some background and for information about the Common Pleas Court I used information on the Warren County Records Center’s website on pages titled “Common Pleas Actions” and “Minutes of Common Pleas.”

For the paragraph on Cashel, I used information from a webpage titled “Cashel” on Ask About Ireland’s website, which derives its information from George Henry Bassett’s County Tipperary 100 years ago: a guide and directory, 1889; Ireland Genealogy Project’s webpage “Tipperary Genealogy”; Connemara Tourism’s “Cashel” webpage; enjoy-irish-culture’s “Ireland History-Crucial Moments In The 1,000 Year History Of The Rock Of Cashel”; Tipperary Tourism Company’s “Rock of Cashel” webpage; Heritage Towns of Ireland webpage titled “Cashel, Co. Tipperary”; Encyclopaedia Brittanica’s “Cashel, Ireland” entry; pages about Cashel on the Dublin City University website; and Heritage Ireland’s “Cashel Heritage Town Cashel, Co. Tipperary.”

It is also worth noting that I used the National Library of Ireland’s Catholic Parish Registers, specifically those for the Diocese of Cashel and Emly in County Tipperary. I looked through Microfilm 02501 / 03 for marriages in Cashel and Emly Cashel from Jan 6, 1793 to May 16, 1831, finding no mention of any Millses by 1821. I also looked through Microfilm 02501 / 02 for births in Cashel and Emly Cashel from 11 Nov 1793 to 19 July 1831. I again found no mention of the Millses, even specifically looking for the years 1802-1806 for the birth of John Mills or any other Mills individual. I also searched the years 1824-1825 for Margaret Bibby and came up dry. I did not examine the other microfilms, ranging from 27 July 1831 to 12 Jan 1881 because they do not cover the appropriate time period for this family history.

For the graphics in this chapter, they are from: pages 86, 200, and 202 of DK’s World History Atlas; pages 375, 392 of the 21st Century World Atlas, and page 90 of the Times Concise Atlas of World History. I also created my own graphics from varying sources.

I, of course, also examined the page on from-ireland.net titled “Tipperary Genealogy,” used the “Inventory of Warren County Historian’s Office” for information on family files held by the Warren County Historian’s Office, looked at the page maintained by the Archdiocese of Cashel & Emly titled “Genealogical Research in Cashel and Emly,” and looked at links for ireland.com’s page on genealogy and ancestry relating to Cashel. Additionally, I read through the Ireland Genealogy Projects’s webpage(s) relating to genealogy in Tipperary, including a surname index showing that there is no one currently in that county that is a researcher for the Mills or Bibby family names, looked at the resources provided by GENUKI’s webpage titled “County Tipperary,” webpages of the Tipperary Studies website titled “Genealogy,” “Gravestone Inscriptions,” and “About.” Also helpful was the Irish Genealogy Rootkit website titled “Roman Catholic baptism, marriage and burial records,” a page on failteromhat.com titled “Land Owners in Ireland 1876” showing individuals with the Mills and Bibby surname living in Ireland at the time, the Government of Ireland’s webpage on “Irish Genealogy,” irishroots.org’s webpage titled “Finding Your Roots in Ireland,” the Association of Church Archives in Ireland’s webpage titled “Cashel and Emly Diocesan Archives.” Beyond this, Paul McCotter’s article on IrishAbroad titled “The Anglo-Norman Surnames of Ireland (Part II),” wikitravel.org’s webpage titled “Cashel,” searching a book titled A Genealogy history of Irish families: with their crests and armorial bearings, a page by the Irish Genealogical Society International titled “requesting research help,” and the UCD Digital Library for which I found no results on the Mills family.

I also looked at maps of the Hudson River, especially one titled “Hudson River Watershed,” showing how Glens Falls is at the edge of the watershed in the north, which covers a significant part of Warren County.

Examining the sources of the Plymouth Colony Pages [Part 36]

James N. Arnold, Vital Record of Rehoboth, 1642-1896 (Providence, RI: Narragansett Historical Publishing Co., 1897).

This book has four results for the Packard surname:

"Lydia and Charles Packard, both of Rehoboth, married by David Perry, Jr., Esq., May 21, 1795"- p 128 "LEACH Peleg S., aged 33, his 2d marriage, born and of North Bridgewater, sou of Oliver and Mercy, and Eliza A. Packard, born North Bridgewater, of Rehoboth, daughter of Israel and Jane W., married by Rev. Thomas T. Richmond Dec. 3, 1863. Int. Dec. 29, 1863"- p 224 "PACKARD Charles and Lvdia Drown, both of Rehoboth, mar- ried by David Perry, Jr. Esq., May 21, 1795"- p 274 "[Packard] Eliza A., born New Bedford, of Rehoboth, daughter of Israel and Jane W., and Peleg S. Leach, aged 33, his 2d marriage, born and of North Bridgewater, son of Oliver and Mercy, mar- ried by Rev. Thomas T. Richmond Dec. 3, 1863. Int. Dec. 29, 1863, (sic).- p 274

James N. Arnold, Vital Record of Rhode Island 1636-1850, 21 Vols. (Providence, RI: Narragansett Historical Publishing Co., 1891-1912).

This book lists Packards including those who died there.

Vital Records of Roxbury Massachusetts to the End of the Year 1849, 2 Vols. (Salem, MA: The Essex Institute, 1925-1926).

There are varying Packards who were born in Roxbury:

Edwin, s. Otis and Julia. A., bp. Mar. ----, 1841. C.R.6. Emily, d. Otis and Julia A., bp. Oct. 19, 1844. C.R.6. Emily, d. Charles, laborer, and Nancy, June 10, 1847. Emma, d. Otis and Julia A., bp. Nov. 28, 1847. C.R.6. Horace Wheelock, s. Otis and Julia A., bp. Jan. 1, 1843. C.R.6. Julia Frances, d. Otis and Julia A., bp. July 21, 1839. C.R.6. William, s. Charles, machinist, and Nancy, June 1, 1845. ----, d. Otis, upholsterer, and Julia, Jan. 21, 1847.

There are no results in the index of this book online.

Note: This was originally posted on Apr. 27, 2018 on the main Packed with Packards WordPress blog (it can also be found on the Wayback Machine here). My research is still ongoing, so some conclusions in this piece may change in the future.

Venerdì 31 maggio – ore 21

FINALE DI STAGIONE AL TEATRO SOCIALE DI CAMOGLI CON

GIOVANNI BELLUCCI IN CONCERTO

Berlioz Verdi e Bellini nelle trascrizioni per pianoforte di Liszt

A cura del Gruppo di Promozione Musicale “Golfo Paradiso”

Si chiude all’insegna della grande musica la stagione 2018/19 del Teatro Sociale di Camogli. Giovanni Bellucci è considerato uno dei più autorevoli pianisti del nostro tempo. La sua incisione delle Parafrasi di Franz Liszt sulle Opere di Verdi e Bellini è stata inserita dal magazine Diapason nella Top Ten dei dischi lisztiani della storia. Il riconoscimento di Diapason si unisce ai consensi unanimemente espressi all’artista italiano dalle testate specialistiche più prestigiose. “Una forza della natura scatenata, ma né brutale, né meccanica: una forza, invece, enorme e palpitante”, così lo definisce Piero Rattalino. E il grande pianista russo Lazar Berman, ascoltandolo ai suoi esordi, ha dichiarato: “Bellucci è uno dei più grandi talenti che io abbia mai ascoltato… attraverso un fenomenale virtuosismo, realizza un discorso musicale altamente innovativo”. Nel concerto proposto da GPM “Golfo Paradiso al Teatro Sociale di Camogli venerdì 31 maggio eseguirà alcune delle più famose trascrizioni per pianoforte di Franz Liszt: la Grande Symphonie Fantastique op 14 di H. Berlioz, il “Miserere” dal Trovatore e la Parafrasi da concerto sul Rigoletto di Giuseppe Verdi e Réminiscenses de Norma da Vincenzo Bellini.

L’interesse del musicista ungherese per la trascrizione del nasceva dal desiderio di conoscere più da vicino lo stile compositivo degli autori e esplorare le infinite possibilità del pianoforte, in cui cercava di trasporre tutte le sonorità orchestrali. Trascrivendo la Sinfonia Fantastica di Berlioz, Liszt apre un filone nel quale il pianoforte non è più soltanto un comodo mezzo meccanico per fare ascoltare un po’ di note, ma diventa un sintetizzatore di timbri, colori, soluzioni tecniche ideate per fare esplodere dentro la cassa armonica i fuochi artificiali di una grande orchestra sinfonica. Profondamente interessato alla divulgazione della lirica, Liszt si avvicina a Verdi scegliendo, tra le innumerevoli sfaccettature del mondo musicale e drammaturgico verdiano, quel che più si avvicina alla declinazione del tema “viscerale” del Romanticismo europeo: l’amore in tutte le sue forme, da quello pronto a perdersi nel sacrificio della vita di Leonora nel Trovatore a quello erotico e libertino del Duca di Mantova nel Rigoletto. Le Réminiscences de Norma ci portano invece agli anni d’oro delle sue grandi tournée, per la precisione al 1841, e innestano un’abilità digitale funambolica sui temi folgoranti di un’opera che il pubblico del tempo amava alla follia, ancora oggi tra le più popolari del musicista siciliano.

19th Century Timeline: 1801 to 1900

1811-20 1821-30 1831-40 1841-50

1851-60 1861-70 1871-80 1881-90 1891-1900

1801 Britain is rising as an industrial power. The average life expectancy is around 40. A fictional "better-off" family will be described as drinking water that has a cow taste because it is taken from a brook from which cows drink. Meat is rare. Dental care is poor. The family eats with wooden spoons. Candles are rarely used because they cost too much. The father "visited the city once, but the travel cost him a week's wages... The children sleep two to a bed on straw mattresses on the floor." (Matt Ridley, The Rational Optimist: How Prosperity Evolves, p. 13.)

1801 Britain makes Ireland part of a single British kingdom. Parliament in Dublin is abolished. The Anglican Church is to be recognized as the official church in Ireland. No Catholics are to be allowed to hold public office.

1801 Napoleon of France has defeated Austria. In the treaty of Lunéville, Austria renounces claims to the Holy Roman Empire.

1802 The Ottoman Turks, trying to maintain empire, are fighting the Saud family and its Sunni Wahhabi allies. In Mesopotamia the Wahhabis capture the Shiite holy city of Karbala. In Arabia they capture Mecca.

1802 Leader of Haitian independence, Toussaint L'Ouverture, receives a message from the French General Brunet to meet for negotiations. Brunet assures Toussaint that he will be perfectly safe with the French, whom he says are gentlemen. When Toussaint shows up for the meeting, the French take and ship him to France, to a prison near the Swiss border.

1802 The war-weary British sign a treaty ending their war against France – The Treaty of Amiens.

1803 Ohio becomes the 17th US state. (Mar 1)

1803 President Jefferson and others support an investment of $15 million for the Louisiana Territory, which Napoleon is willing to sell for cash for his war efforts.

1803 Toussaint L'Ouverture dies in prison. (Apr 7)

1803 The treaty between Britain and France has broken down. Again they go to war against each other. (May 18)

1803 A German makes morphine from opium. Physicians are delighted that opium has been tamed. Morphine is lauded for its reliability and safety.

1803 In England, seven Irish rebels are the last sentenced to be hanged, drawn and quartered. In deference to public opinion the sentence is commuted to merely hanging and beheading.

1803 Irish are rebelling against British rule. They are crushed militarily by the British, but unrest among the Irish will remain in Ireland through the rest of the century.

1803 The Wahhabis do not view the Shia as Muslims. A Shia assassinates the conqueror Abdul Aziz of the House of Saud.

1804 The Royal College of Surgeons is founded in London.

1804 Japan refuses trade with arriving Russian ships.

1804 The Russians visit the Hawaiian islands on their way to Fort Ross in California.

1804 Around 150,000 Hawaiians – nearly half of the population – are dying from the Great Sickness – an unknown disease brought by Europeans.

1804 Serbs revolt against Ottoman authority and win autonomy status – self-rule within the Ottoman Empire – demonstrating Ottoman weakness to Greeks, who remain under Ottoman rule.

1804 Haiti proclaims itself a republic and independent.

1804 In Hausaland (south of the Sahara and west of Lake Chad), Muslim herdsmen war against non-Muslim Hausa chiefdoms and gain power in the region.

1804 In the wartime atmosphere and as a defense against French royalty, the Senate in France votes in favor of Napoleon Bonaparte becoming Napoleon I, "Emperor of the French." Napoleon crowns himself emperor. Beethoven is enraged. He dislikes royalty and tears up the title page for his Symfonia Buonaparte, which will be known as his Symphony No.3.

1804 Spain joins Napoleon's war as an ally against the British.

1805 Russia, Austria and Sweden ally themselves with Britain.

1805 In Milan, Napoleon is crowned King of Italy. He is looking towards an invasion of England. A French fleet sails north to Spain's Atlantic port of Cadiz. Napoleon orders his French and Spanish ships out of Cadiz to do battle with the British. The British win, at the Battle of Trafalgar, frustrating Napoleon's invasion plan.

1805 For two years the British East India Company has been warring against the Maratha Empire – which was allied with Napoleon. The East India Company wins and gains control over Orissa and western Gujarat.

1805 The son of Abdul Aziz, now head of House of Saud, defeats an Ottoman garrison and captures the holy city of Medina.

1806 The Emperor of Austria, Francis I, abdicates his other title: Holy Roman Emperor. The Holy Roman Empire, created in the 800s, is formally dissolved, with Napoleon reorganizing much of it into his Confederation of the Rhine.

1806 Jean Jacques Dessalines, leader of Haiti's revolution and self-declared emperor, is being viewed by his generals as a ridiculous figure. Dessalines announces his plan to march with troops into the south, where he is not popular, and the south explodes in rebellion. Dessalines' generals prepare a trap for him along the way. His horse is shot from under him. He is pinned under his horse, he is shot in the head and his body hacked to pieces with machetes.

1806 Ruling the seas, a British naval force takes control of Cape Colony in South Africa – the Dutch who had been ruling there now being ruled by Britain's enemy, Napoleon.

1807 Extending its power at sea, Britain outlaws slave trading across the Atlantic for its own ships and for ships from all countries united with Napoleon. Britain turns a presence on the coast of western Africa into a crown colony – Sierra Leone.

1807 The US Congress passes a law that bans the importation of slaves into the US, a law to be largely ignored in southern states.

1807 In Manchester, England, the largest factory complex in the world opens and the event draws spectators from across Britain and beyond. The factory uses steam acquired from burning coal. It's a change from power by river water, which is too limited a source for the coming industrial expansion. The availability of coal is helping the British surpass the Dutch industrially.

1807 The Geological Society of London is created, the founders expressing their desire to avoid preconceived notions and to collect facts for discussion.

1807 With help from the French, Muhammad Ali Pasha drives the British out of Egypt (a part of the Ottoman Empire).

1807 Napoleon moves to consolidate his position in Europe. He defeats a combined Prussian and Russian force in February. Danzig surrenders to him. He defeats the Russians in June and occupies Königsberg. Alexander of Russia is annoyed with the British and agrees to meet with Napoleon. In August, Napoleon demands that Portugal join the trade boycott against the British and declare war on Britain. Portugal hesitates. Napoleon's ally, Spain, allows French troops to pass through its territory to Portugal. The French captured Lisbon as Portugal's royal family flees to Brazil.

1808 Napoleon intervenes in a quarrel between Spain's king, Charles IV, and the son of Charles, Ferdinand. He makes the two of them prisoners in a comfortable setting and moves his brother Joseph from the Kingdom of Naples to the throne in Spain. Spaniards resent the presence of French troops and Napoleon's interventions. An unusually barbarous war begins within Spain – with Napoleon as usual caring little about hearts and minds. Resistance to the French spreads to Portugal. The British land a force there to help the resistance. It is the beginning of Napoleon's decline.

1808 Spain's authority in its American colonies declines. Armed uprisings occurred from Mexico to Argentina. Without Spain in control, the British are able to do more business in Latin America, rescuing Britain from Napoleon's economic boycott.

1808 John Dalton argues that matter consists of a range of atoms each of which has a distinct weight.

1809 Russia defeats Sweden. Sweden loses Finland, which becomes an autonomous Grand Duchy within Russia's empire. Returning to the Hawaiian Islands from California and hoping for trade, Russians build a fort at Honolulu and try to establish themselves on the island of Kauai. They ignore Hawaiian customs and are driven out.

1809 Napoleon is spread thin. The Austrians defeat him at the Battle of Aspern-Essling, and he loses his reputation for invincibility. The Austrians fail to follow up on their victory. Napoleon organizes an assault and defeats the Austrians. The Austrians make peace with Napoleon.

1809 Napoleon's economic blockade is not working. Britain's exports reach an all-time high.

1810 Allied with the Portuguese against Napoleon, the British negotiate an agreement with the Portuguese calling for the gradual abolition of the slave trade across the South Atlantic.

1810 People have been migrating from the United States into West Florida. These settlers rebel and declare independence from Spain. Recognizing Spain's weakened condition from occupation by Napoleon, the US President James Madison and Congress declare the region for the United States – a move not recognized internationally.

1810 Cornelius Vanderbilt (1794-1877), at the age of 16, starts a business transporting people and then freight across the Hudson River and New York's harbor in a small, two-masted sailboat. A revolution in transportation was about to begin and as an entrepreneur he would be a part of it.

1810 The ruler of Kauai cedes his island to Kamehameha. Kamehameha is now ruler of all of the Hawaiian Islands. In accordance with Hawaiian tradition he is considered divine and commoners prostrate themselves before him.

7th Wednesday

Squally: Pilot came onboard 9-30 PM: beating up to the anchorage until 4 PM: took up our billet abreast of the Paddock. The Government Cutter came down and met us with Sir John Franklin onboard and our old Shipmate Mr Kay boarded us, and appeared very happy to see us all well. In fact we have much to be thankful for considering the inclement weather we have met and the high Southern Latitude we arrived at and all returned in good health not one case of Sickness. The inhabitants are all glad to see us return and Governor Seemed highly gratified.

I felt much disappointed in not having any letters from my friends. I received one from Head Quarters with a quantity of interesting Matter in it: it also contained the news of the reduction of my old chum Meadow for a frivolous offence: I am heartily Sorry for it: he was a good Comrade and a brave man.

Campbell's notes:

Ross, Voyage, I. p. 323. ‘The light at the entrance of the Derwent was seen soon after midnight, and at nine next morning the pilot came on board.’

McCormick, Voyages, I. p. 196. ‘Wednesday, April 7th, 7.45 a.m. – Beating up above the lighthouse on the Derwent, with a strong breeze; firing several guns for a pilot. About noon Sir John Franklin came in a cutter to meet us, saluting us with three cheers, which we returned off Hobart Town. The squalls were so heavy as to heel the ship over to a considerable angle; and at 3.45 p.m. we let go our anchor off the paddock.’

C. J. Sullivan, SPRI MS 367/22. ‘The Governor Sir John Franklin and the inhabitants of Hobart Town welcomed us all hands were in good health and Spirits Fresh grub and Liberty on Shore with a drop of the Creator – soon made our Jolly Tars forget the Cold fingers in the Frozen Regions for very Little they thought of 78 South while Regealing then Selves at Charley Probins the Sign of the Gordon Castle Hobart town.’

Examining the sources of the Plymouth Colony Pages [Part 34]

Ebenezer W. Peirce, Civil, Military and Professional Lists of Plymouth and Rhode Island Colonies (Boston: A. Williams & Co., 1881; reprinted Baltimore: Genealogical Publishing Co., 1968; Baltimore: Clearfield Co., 1995).

This book is available online in some places. On HathiTrust there are the following results for Samuel Packards:

Inn keeper on March 8, 1671 (would likely be Samuel Packard), described on a later page.

Ensign in October 1689 (would be Samuel Packard's son)

Along with varying other results. Of course, in two-page preface, he does not outline his sources. Obviously, some primary sources are used, but which ones? Some other results show a "Samuel Packer" listed as a Surveyor of Highways in 1672, the position of which is described later.

Charles Edward Banks, The Planters of the Commonwealth. A Study of the Emigrants and Emigration In Colonial Times ... 1620-1640 (Boston: Houghton Mifflin, 1930; reprinted Baltimore, multiple editions).

This book is only available through a limited search on HathiTrust, with "Samuel Packer" noted on page 194. It can be found some other places but not many in general.

Henry Edwards Scott, Vital Records of Plympton Massachusetts to the Year 1850 (Boston: New England Historic Genealogical Society, 1923).

This book is on Internet Archive but is also indexed online separately. Births in Plympton, MA:

Mary Holmes, ch. Perez [q. v.] and Mercy Bradford (Sherman), July 27, 1844, in P. Orlando, ch. Perez [q. v.] and Mercy Bradford (Sherman), Oct. 15, 1846, in Halifax. Orlando Hinds, s. Isaac of W. Bridgewater and Mary Jones, Sept. 6, 1817. Perez, h. Mercy Bradford (d. Lt. Joseph Sherman and Nancy of P.), s. Isaac and Mary Jones of W. Bridgewater, Dec. 4, 1821, in W. Bridgewater.

And marriages in the same place:

Zinzulusa: una grotta e un toponimo tra fantasia e realtà (1/2)

di Armando Polito

“Fantastico” è l’aggettivo più usato come sinonimo di “stupendo“, “bello“, ma pure per indicare “ciò che è frutto della fantasia“. Alla nostra grotta si addicono entrambi i significati e, se per spiegare il primo, basta visitarla o accontentarsi dell’album che apre questo post, per il secondo bisognerà ricorrere alla storia e alla filologia.

Diversi sono, come si vedrà, pure per formazione, i personaggi coinvolti e il rispetto della cronologia, anche se non mancheranno riferimenti ancora più lontani nel tempo, vuole che inizi con un vescovo, l’ultimo di Castro, cioè Francesco Antonio Duca (o Del Duca), La grotta era certamente già nota al popolo, ma il prelato ebbe quanto meno il merito di pubblicizzarla adeguatamente, forse con l’intento furbesco di dare lustro alla sua diocesi. D’altra parte siamo nel secolo XVIII, lo stesso in cui a Nardò Giovanni Bernardino Tafuri partoriva false cronache antiche e documenti simili. Della sua esistenza il vescovo mise al corrente il sovrano corredando la notizia della sua interpretazione, che attribuiva più all’uomo, cioè al mitico Idomeneo, col tempio di Minerva da lui ivi realizzato, che alla natura il pregio di quel sito.

Il lettore che ha interesse troverà nell’appendice documentaria che correda in fine questo post il testo integrale delle tre lettere (così come apparvero pubblicate, oggi diremmo in tempo quasi reale, sulla Gazzetta di Parma) dal vescovo scritte e indirizzate due a Ferdinando IV (il 17 ed il 24 settembre 1793) ed una alla Nunziatura di Napoli il (15 ottobre dello stesso anno).

L’eco della “scoperta” fu vasta e duratura. Ecco come a distanza di cinque anni ne parla Giuseppe Maria Alfano in Istorica descrizione del regno di Napoli diviso in dodici provincie, Manfredi, Napoli, 1798, pp. 121-122: L’odierno Vescovo, Monsignor D. Francescantonio del Duca, facendo uso da’ suoi vasti, e colti talenti nella Storia naturale, e nella scienza delle antichità ha scoperto fra le viscere di una Montagna, nominata Zinzanusa il famoso Tempio di Minerva, tanto mentovato da Virgilio; quello appunto, che Strabone nel lib. 6 de Salentinis disse, parlando della Fortezza dedicata a Minerva. Hic vero fuit , et Minervae templum dives olim, et Scopulus, quem vocant promontorium Japigium, multum procurrens in mare contra Ortum Hybernum. Il detto Prelato ne avanzò subito una relazione alla Maestà del Sovrano sotto il dì 17 Settembre, ed altra a’ 30 Ottobre dello scorso anno 1793, rappresentando, che questa Montagna racchiude nel masso una Grotta, la di cui apertura scorgesi dal mare, che la circonda. Questa Grotta si estende moltissimo; essendosi camminata direttamente circa 300 passi, e circa un miglio con le tortuosità, e per le laterali strade si è giunto in una Galleria grandissima, ed altissima, e non si è entrato, perché vi è fango, e vi si sente una puzza assai fastidiosa. Non si sa dove conduca la divisata Galleria, e quali altre vie ci sieno. Si sono scoverte molte stanze, pozzi, e fonti d’acqua buona. Entrandosi in una stanza vi sono quattro grosse colonne di circa tre palmi di diametro, poste in regolar ordine, ed una di esse distesa a terra, Vi sono poi innumerabili altre colonne, grosse e picciole, tutte cristallizzate, che col lume delle candele risplendono come i brillanti. Vi sono delle lapidi, che cuoprono, e chiudono Sepolcri, nascondigli, ed altre aperture. Moltissime produzioni vi si scorgono d’ogni grandezza, lavorate tutte dall’arte, o dalla natura. Vi è una mensa, ne i lati della quale son poggiate in regolar situazione due colonnette per ogni lato. Vi è sospeso in aria (sebbene attaccato nel suo incominciamento al muro laterale) un baldacchino, ed indi si vede calare un panneggio tutto lavorato con pomi, ed altri intrecci; formando un padiglione di delicato gusto; e non si è passato innanzi, perché si attendono le sovrane disposizioni.

A distanza di venti anni, sempre dalla “scoperta”, Domenico Romanelli, citando l’Alfano solo alla fine, scriveva in Antica topografia istorica del regno di Napoli, Stamperia Reale, Napoli, 1818, p. 33, nota a: Gli avanzi del tempio di Minerva a Castro si sono scoverti in una montagna appellata Zinzanusa. Qui in una lunga grotta scavata dall’arte, dove non si respira, che un odore solfureo, si sono trovate gallerie, stanze, pozzi, moltissime colonne, mense e marmi lavorati, che richiamavano l’attenzione di monsign. del Duca a farne nel 1793 un rapporto al governo.

Prima di proseguire, a beneficio del lettore che non abbia ancora preso visione delle tre lettere, ricordo che il vescovo, dalla posizione dubbiosa sulla Zinzulusa opera dell’uomo oppure della natura espressa nelle prime due, passa nella terza all’assoluta certezza, che, però, non esclude l’ambiguità, nel senso che secondo lui, si tratterebbe senz’altro del tempio di Minerva con un arredo, per così dire, misto, cioè in parte naturale ed in parte artefatto.

Come si evince dai brani che ho citato, né l’Alfano né il Romanelli si lasciano sfiorare dall’ombra del dubbio, il primo, forse, troppo condizionato dai vasti, e colti talenti nella Storia naturale, e nella scienza delle antichità del prelato.

Eppure tra i due s’inserisce, cronologicamente parlando, un brindisino, Teodoro Monticelli. Nato a Brindisi nel 1759 era un tipo che passava con una disinvoltura pari solo alla competenza dalla teologia all’apicoltura, dalla mineralogia alla vulcanologia. Nell’attuale era della frantumazione del sapere mi chiedo spesso se la conseguente specializzazione professionale non sia il portato del prevalere della formazione scientifica rispetto a quella umanistica, con un ribaltamento totale rispetto al passato, che non è stato certo avaro di conquiste in ogni campo. E penso, per esempio, a quando il buon medico di famiglia era in grado di diagnosticare le più svariate malattie, mentre oggi, a meno che non si tratti di un banale raffreddore, ti manda dritto dritto da uno specialista (che, magari, non fa nemmeno al caso tuo …).

Indietro, purtroppo, non si torna, ma anche gli scettici debbono riconoscere che la cultura umanistica era, prima che fosse scientemente e, direi … scientificamente, umiliata, in grado di conferire una marcia in più che, nel prosieguo degli studi, fossero anche di taglio esclusivamente scientifico, garantiva un’apertura ed un’elasticità mentale in grado di valorizzare l’eventuale innato intuito sempre al servizio di uno spirito profondamente critico.

Senza scomodare Leonardo da Vinci, fino al secolo scorso non era difficile incontrare figure di studiosi che si sono cimentati in campi che tra loro non sembrano avere nulla in comune. E torno a Teodoro con lapidarie ma significative informazioni.

Monaco benedettino, fu professore di morale nell’Università di Napoli negli anni 1792-94; imprigionato per sei anni nell’isola di Favignana per aver partecipato alla rivoluzione del 1799, fu nel 1808 nominato professore di chimica nella stessa università, della quale sarà poi rettore nel 1826-1827.

Siccome il numero e la qualità delle pubblicazioni oggi è il criterio, almeno teorico, per sancire la degnità (e la dignità …) accademica di un insegnante, se il nostro fosse vissuto ai nostri tempi, avrebbe potuto aspirare a buon diritto almeno a tre cattedre contemporaneamente.

È raro che tutti o i principali lavori di un autore, risalenti a tempi diversi, trovino ospitalità in una pubblicazione detta in gergo opera omnia, mentre egli è ancora in vita; se questo avviene, lungi dal tradire la volontà di attendere un po’ (giusto il tempo che muoia, per intenderci …) per evitare di dover sprecare carta, inchiostro ed energia per altri flop editoriali, è per riconoscimento dell’importanza degli studi fin lì fatti. E di questo privilegio godette Teodoro (morirà nel 1845) con Opere dell’abate Teodoro Monticelli, Stabilimento tipografico dell’Aquila, Napoli 1841-18431.

Theoremata ex mathesi, ac philosohia selecta quae D. Theodorus Monticelli in tyrocinio regalis coenobii S. Crucis de Lycio auditor sub auspiciis Xaverii Marincola facit, cathedram moderante D. Petro Maria Kalephato, De Dominicis, Napoli, 1776. Del volume l’OPAC registra solo un esemplare custodito nella Biblioteca pubblica arcivescovile “Annibale De Leo” di Brindisi.

Propositiones theologico-dogmaticae, morales, et canonicae quas publice discutiiendas proponit D. Theodorus Monticelli congr. Coelestinorum ord. S. Benedicti monac. et in collegio S. Eusebii de urbe sac. theol. audit. sub assistentia D. Raphaelis Chiumaroli, et D. Xavierii Bassi theologiae lectorum, Barbiellini, Roma, 1780. La pubblicazione risale al periodo in cui il Monticelli era nel collegio di S. Eusebio a Roma per gli studi di teologia, filosofia e matematica ed aveva, quando il lavoro uscì, 21 anni.

Catechismo di agricoltura pratica, e di pastorizia per la pubblica istruzione de’contadini del Regno di Napoli, Cons, Napoli, 1792. Anticipando l’analisi di problemi ancora oggi irrisolti (o risolti male …), individuava la necessità di maggiore libertà di mercato, della riduzione delle tasse, dell’introduzione di nuovi macchinari e colture, di interventi strutturali (bonifiche, rimboschimenti ecc).

I titoli riportati danno un quadro eloquente delle molteplici scienze che il Monticelli coltivò con rigore metodologico e del prestigio internazionale di cui godette, come mostrano le decine di corrispondenti, tra cui sovrani e uomini politici, letterati e scienziati italiani, europei e statunitensi, nonché le onorificenze conferitegli da numerose società e accademie, italiane e straniere, di molte delle quali fu membro.

TEATRO SOCIALE DI CAMOGLI

Venerdì 31 maggio – ore 21

A cura del Gruppo di Promozione Musicale “Golfo Paradiso”

GIOVANNI BELLUCCI IN CONCERTO

Berlioz Verdi e Bellini nelle trascrizioni per pianoforte di Liszt

Giovanni Bellucci è considerato uno dei più autorevoli pianisti del nostro tempo. La sua incisione delle Parafrasi di Franz Liszt sulle Opere di Verdi e Bellini è stata inserita dal magazine Diapason nella Top Ten dei dischi lisztiani della storia. Il riconoscimento di Diapason si unisce ai consensi unanimemente espressi all’artista italiano dalle testate specialistiche più prestigiose. “Una forza della natura scatenata, ma né brutale, né meccanica: una forza, invece, enorme e palpitante”, così lo definisce Piero Rattalino. E il grande pianista russo Lazar Berman, ascoltandolo ai suoi esordi, ha dichiarato: “Bellucci è uno dei più grandi talenti che io abbia mai ascoltato… attraverso un fenomenale virtuosismo, realizza un discorso musicale altamente innovativo”. Nel concerto proposto da GPM “Golfo Paradiso al Teatro Sociale di Camogli venerdì 31 maggio eseguirà alcune delle più famose trascrizioni per pianoforte di Franz Liszt: la Grande Symphonie Fantastique op 14 di H. Berlioz, il “Miserere” dal Trovatore e la Parafrasi da concerto sul Rigoletto di Giuseppe Verdi e Réminiscenses de Norma da Vincenzo Bellini.
