Dr. James Still: Black Doctor of the Pine BarrenseditDoctor James Still was born in 1812 in Indian Mills, New Jersey. He was the son of runaway slaves who built a home in the area of New Jersey called the Pine Barrens. He had little formal education but his passion for learning and knowledge led to his lifetime career as a physician and healer. Dr. Still was poor and unable to persue a formal education and support his family at the same time so after spending sometime in Philadelphia, facing prejudice and fiancial strains, he returned home to the Pines. There, in the Pines, word spread that a doctor was available to the people no matter how poor they were or their background. Soon word spread wide and far and Dr. Still was in high demand. He became a very well respected in the community and became the third largest land owner in Medford, New Jersey. Dr. Still was known for blending traditional medicinal methods of the time along with practicing more unconventional methods such as herbs. Many of the sick were treated by Dr. Still with rememdies made from local South Jersey plants and it is said he was able to cure such aliments like cancer succesfully. He is buried at Jacob's Chapel AME Church, Elbo Lane, Mount Laurel and recently the state of New Jersey has bought the land his office once sat upon and plans for an education museum are slated on the site. The Still family has contributed much in the way of African-American history in America. Dr. Still's brother, William Still is known as the "Father of the Underground Rail Road". Dr. Still's son, Dr. James Thomas Still Jr., was the third black person to graduate from Harvard Medical School in 1871.

Edward Bonney (August 26, 1807-February 4, 1864) was a 19th century adventurer, private detective and later author. He is best known for his undercover work exposing the "Banditti of the Prairie" resulting from his investigation of the murder of noted pioneer George Davenport. BiographyeditBonney was born in Essex County, New York and, after becoming married, he moved to Indiana in 1843. He eventually "fiddle-footed his way" to Nauvoo, a Mormon community on the Mississippi River, where he and his wife decided to settle. During this time, he witnessed early theological arguments over issues such as polygamy as well as attacks against Mormon newspapers. After the murders of Joseph and Hyrum Smith in Carthage, Illinois in 1844, he became involved in fighting against criminal elements both outside and within the Mormon community, particularly the Mormon Danites. In 1845, he moved to Lee County, Iowa where he operated a livery stable. During the next several years, Bonney worked with law enforcement agencies to hunt down various criminals in the area as a sort of freelance bounty hunter. He attained a reputation as a skilled detective who, adept at "piecing together odd bits of information and rumor", he was often subject to suspicion and persecution for his membership in the Mormons. His investigations into the criminal activity occurring along the vast mid-river area of the Mississippi, which he attributed to the organization known as the "Banditti of the Prairie", were claimed by him to being carried out by fellow Mormons seeking refuge in Nauvoo and from which they based their criminal activities from unhindered by law enforcement. It was not until going undercover within the organization, that he was able to connect the gang to the torture-murder of George Davenport. After a four month chase through Illinois, Missouri, Indiana and Ohio, he finally brought most of his murderers to justice. Of the eight men taken into custody, three of the four men involved in Davenport's murder, Granville Young and brothers John and Aaron Long, were convicted and hanged. The fourth man, Robert H. Birch, agreed to turned state's evidence and later escaped from jail. Birch later became one of the founders of the Pinos Altos gold mining camp in the New Mexico Territory. Returning to Lee County the following year, he was indicted by the local district court for murder and later acquitted. He lived in Rock Island, Illinois for a time and in Prospect Park in DuPage County before settling in Aurora, Illinois around 1852. Prior to this, Bonney published a sensational account of the Banditti of the Prairie. Originally published in 1850, Banditti of the Prairies, or the Murderer's Doom!! was an immediate success and ran though six editions until 1858. Although it is thought Bonney may have been assisted by a ghost writer, the book is considered remarkably accurate when compared with official court records and other evidence. Although not specifically anti-Mormon, the book reflected Bonney's criticism towards organized religion. He continued working as a detective until his death in Chicago, Illinois on February 4, 1864.

Consider, for example, a consumer that says an important distinction between express delivery services is that one service has "package tracking software" and another service does not. The researcher would then ladder the key distinction by asking why having 6 4 package tracking software" (means) is important to the respondent. Then the respondent is asked why the consequence "makes me look good" (end) is important to the respondent and so forth until the attribute-consequence-value chain is exhausted. The laddering interview reveals the linkages between attributes, consequences, and values used by respondents to justify their beliefs and/or behavior.

Russell Farnham (1784-October 23, 1832) was an 19th century American frontiersman, explorer and fur trader. An agent of John Jacob Astor's American Fur Company, he oversaw fur trading in the Great Lakes region throughout the 1810s and 1820s. A member of the Astor Expedition headed by Wilson P. Hunt during 1810-1812, he is also the first American to semi-circumnavigate the world traveling by foot from Fort Astoria (in present-day Astoria, Oregon) to St. Petersburg, Russia and arriving in New York. BiographyeditBorn in Massachusetts, he left home to join one of two expeditions organized by John Jacob Astor to establish the Pacific Fur Company at the mouth of the Columbia River. Farnham, hired as a clerk, was part of the Tonquin party under Captain Jonathan Thorn who were to travel by sea around Cape Horn arriving on the Pacific coast. However, the party soon met with disaster with the death of Thorn and the destruction of their ship soon after their arrival. In November 1811, he was one of several men who pursued and captured a group of deserters. He also took part in fighting Indians at the Dalles, building a trading post near Spokane and lived among the Flatheads during the winter of 1812-13. According to Washington Irving, Farnham was ordered by Clark to execute a local Indian who had been caught stealing a silver cup from one of the hunting and trapping camps and hanging the Indian from a sapling on June 1, 1813. This incident caused a great deal of hostility between Farnham's party and the local tribes. In the spring of 1814, he was later entrusted with a large sum of sterling bills amounting to ₤40,000 as well as papers relating the sale of the Astoria trading post to the British North-West Company and ordered by Wilson P. Hunt, commander of the second expedition, to deliver them to John Jacob Astor via St. Petersburg. Farnham traveled on foot crossing the ice sheet across the Bering Straits and into Kamchatka. He suffered from exposure against the severe and inhospitable Siberian climate and, although leaving Astoria with a small backpack of provisions, suffered from malnutrition having been forced to cut and eat the tops of his own boots to survive. However, he was able to make his way to St. Petersburg and, from Paris eventually arrived in New York. He was the first American to make the journey, John Ledyard having twice failed to do so. Another account claims Farnham left with Hunt on the Pedler and was dropped off on the coast of Kamchatka on April 3 and, after arriving in St. Petersburg, instead left from Hamburg, Germany whereupon he arrived to meet Astor in New York. [2] [3] Employed by Astor to oversee the business interests of American Fur Company in the Great Lakes-region, he was arrested as a spy during the War of 1812. Transported for trial to Prairie du Chien, several of his friends appealed to British authorities of his innocence and the charges were eventually dropped. He made one of the first trips into the Midwest United States on behalf of the American Fur Company in 1817, and later formed a partnership with George Davenport trading with the Sauk and Fox in the Missouri Valley. [2] Moving to St. Louis in 1826, he married Susan Bosseron, the daughter of Charles Bosseron. That same year, while trading at Fort Armstrong, he and Davenport founded a settlement along the Mississippi River known as Stephenson. Along with the town of Farnhamsburg, the two settlements would eventually become the site of Rock Island, Illinois. He also founded Muscatine, Iowa after leaving the Rock Island area some years later. [4] [5] He and Ramsey Crooks absorbed the Columbia Fur Company in 1827 and, with former Columbia traders such as Kenneth MacKenzie, the two founded the American Fur Company's Upper Missouri Outfit. [6] He remained in charge of the rival trading post near Fort Edwards and, in 1829, he founded another trading post several miles upriver at present-day Keokuk, Iowa which was run by Mark Aldrich. [7] He later died of cholera in St. Louis on October 23, 1832. He reportedly survived "only two hours after having been attacked with that then new and fatal disease". His wife and child died of consumption only a few years later. [8] His close friend and former trading partner Ramsey Crooks wrote in a letter to Pierre Chouteau, Jr. regarding news of his death.

Social life in Corfu during the last four hundred yearseditThe documents you are going to review reflect aspects of the social life in Corfu during the last four hundred years. They are letters, contracts, testaments, marriage contracts, official law papers of Corfu or Venice and so on (in Greek or Italian). These are from the archives of my family and I decided to publish them, because perhaps they might be useful to the historians who study the life of this island during these ages.

The origin of the surname LEFTERIOTIS which is common in CorfueditThe surname LEFTHERIOTIS first appears in the year 1246, when the Despot of Epirus Michael the Second, Angelos Komninos, with a gold-sealed edict, in February 1246, decided that 33 orthodox priests in Corfu, should have certain privileges, and be totally free from any kind of work. In return, these priests, who were called, ever since, "free men", had to pray, during the liturgy, for all the orthodox Kings and Lords. The word for "free man" in Greek is "eleftheros" or "lefteros", hence the surname "Leftheriotis" or "Lefteriotis", which exists up to now in Corfu, between the descendants of these priests.

Thomas Martin Easterly (October 3, 1809-March 12, 1882) was a 19th century American daguerreotypist and photographer. He was one of the leading daguerreotypists in the United States during the mid-to-late 19th century and the last photographer to specialize in daguerreotype process. He also opened one of the first permanent art galleries in Missouri. BiographyeditBorn in Guilford, Vermont, he was the second of five children born to farmer and part time shoemaker Tunis Easterly and Philomena Richardson. Little is known about Easterly's early life, however he began working as itinerant calligrapher and a penmanship teacher traveling throughout Vermont, New Hampshire and New York during the 1830s and 40s. By 1844, he had begun practicing photography taking outdoor photographs of architectural landmarks and scenic sites in Vermont. Among his earliest daguerreotypes, made a decade before outdoor photography was popular or profitable, those of the Winooksi and Connecticut Rivers are the only known examples to self-consciously influenced by the romantic landscape paintings of the Hudson River school artists. He was also the first and only daguerreotypist to identify his work using engraved signatures and descriptive captions. In the fall of 1845, Easterly traveled to the Midwest United States and toured the Mississippi River with Frederick Webb as representatives of the Daguerreotype Art Union. The two gained some notoriety from their photography of the criminals convicted of the murder of George Davenport in October of that year. Iowa newspapers reported that Easterly and Webb had achieved a "splendid likeness" of the men shortly before their execution. Easterly and Webb continued touring on the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers for several months before spending the winter of 1846-47 in Liberty, Missouri. The following spring, Easterly and Webb went their separate ways with Easterly traveling on his own to St. Louis. He soon became popular for his portraits of prominent residents and visiting celebrities which were displayed in a temporary gallery on Glasgow Row. One of these portraits was that of Chief Keokuk taken March 1847. He also took a daguerreotype of a lightning bolt, one of the first recorded "instantaneous" photographic images, while in St. Louis. This was later recorded in the Iowa Sentinal as an "Astonishing Achievement in Art". Before retuning to Vermont in August 1847, the St. Louis Reveille described his as an "unrivaled daguerreotypist". He was brought back to Missouri by John Ostrander, founder of the first daguerreotype gallery in St. Louis, in early 1848. Preparing for an extended "tour of the south", Ostringer asked Easterly to manage his portrait gallery. Esterly would continue running the gallery when Ostringer died a short time later. Many of his unique streetscapes depicting mid-19th century urban life were taken from the window's of Orstringer's gallery. In June 1850, he married schoolteacher Anna Miriam Bailey and settled in St. Louis permanently. During the 1860s, improvements in photographic development caused daguerreotypes to become out of fashion. Easterly refused to acknowledge these changes believing the highly detailed daguerreotypes were far superior in terms of beauty or permanence urging the public to "save your old daguerreotypes for you will never see their like again". During the next decade, both his health and financial situation worsened. Despite the declining interest for pictures on silver, he was able to maintain his gallery until it burned in a fire in 1865. He was forced to move to a smaller ___location and continued working in near obscurity until his death in St. Louis on March 12, 1882. He had suffered from a long illness and partial paralysis in his final years and is thought to have been caused by prolonged exposure to mercury, one of the key ingredients used in the daguerreotype process. After his death, his wife sold most of his personal collection John Scholton, another noted St. Louis photographer. The Scholton family eventually donated the plates to the Missouri Historical Society where they remained for nearly a century before being rediscovered during the 1980s by art scholars studying pre-American Civil War photography.
