I shall enter on no encomium upon Massachusetts; she needs none. There she is. Behold her, and judge for yourselves. There is her history; the world knows it by heart. The past, at least, is secure. There is Boston and Concord and Lexington and Bunker Hill; and there they will remain forever. —Daniel Webster Welcome to my personal genealogy pages. Two main ancestral branches are represented here: a poorly-known Boston Irish branch going back through my father to the time of the Irish potato famine (surnames O’Hara, Nugent, Cross, Thomson, and others), and a well-known Massachusetts Bay Puritan branch going back through my mother to the early 1600s and before (surnames Cogswell, Cummings, Fitch, Holden, Hosmer, Lakin, Longley, Parkhurst, Pratt, Rogers, Shattuck, Shedd, Woods, and many others, mostly in Middlesex County , Massachusetts). No information about living individuals is included. Like most genealogy pages, these pages contain a good deal of fragmentary information drawn from sources of varying quality.

Advertisements from the Spanish-American and Philippine-American Wars
By Jim Zwick

hen the Spanish-American War began in April of 1898, American businesses responded quickly, capitalizing on the public's interest in the war. Many publicized real or imagined associations with the military. Williams' Shaving Stick was "the favorite with the Army and Navy." Royal Baking Powder was "specially selected for use in both the Army and Navy." Supporting the war effort, the Prudential Insurance Company and New York Life Insurance Company announced that their present policy-holders could serve in the military without paying extra premiums. Proclaiming that "women are more patriotic than men," Silver Sheen Novelty Skirtings produced a new line of "Red, White and Blue Skirting." Waltham went for gift sales with the suggestion that "every American soldier and every American sailor should carry the best American watch." Seven advertisements from the war years with distinctive graphic images are reproduced below. Ranging from a suggestion that Ivory Soap be used to prepare for "any battle of life" to an ad for Grape-Nuts cereal that used contemporary concerns about cannibalism in the tropics to pitch its stomach-strengthening qualities, they demonstrate the variety of approaches companies used to associate their products with the war, the new colonies, and the "progress" and "civilization" of the world.

Iraq War Strategy Flawed

Ret. Gen. Anthony Zinni once commanded America's troops in the Middle East (Photo: CBS)
"Regardless of whose responsibility I think it is, somebody has screwed up. ... it should be evident to everybody that they've screwed up. And whose heads are rolling on this?"
Gen. Anthony Zinni
President Bush named Zinni special envoy to the Middle East. But Zinni wound up breaking ranks with the administration over the war in Iraq. (Photo: AP)
FOR MORE INFORMATION: Amazon: Buy "Battle Ready" by Ret. Gen. Anthony Zinni, and co-written by Tom Clancy. Plus, read an excerpt from Chapter One of the book. (CBS) Retired General Anthony Zinni is one of the most respected and outspoken military leaders of the past two decades. From 1997 to 2000, he was commander-in-chief of the United States Central Command, in charge of all American troops in the Middle East. That was the same job held by Gen. Norman Schwarzkopf before him, and Gen. Tommy Franks after. Following his retirement from the Marine Corps, the Bush administration thought so highly of Zinni that it appointed him to one of its highest diplomatic posts special envoy to the Middle East.

There were operational commitments to sustain during and after the transition, some an outgrowth of the war just ended, others the product of internal and external situations that could not be ignored. Whereas the prewar Army of the 1850's was essentially a frontier Army, the postwar Army became something more. To defense of the frontier were added military occupation of the southern states, neutralization of the Mexican border during Napoleon's colonial enterprise under Maximilian, elimination of a Fenian (Irish Brotherhood) threat to Canada in the Northeast, and dispersion of white marauders in the border states. But these and other later involvements were passing concerns. The conflict with the red man was the overriding consideration in the next twenty-five years until Indian power was broken. Unfortunately, the military assets

Documents Tell of Brutal Improvisation by GIs
Interrogated General's Sleeping-Bag Death, CIA's Use of Secret Iraqi Squad Are Among Details
By Josh White Washington Post Staff Writer Wednesday, August 3, 2005; Page A01 Iraqi Maj. Gen. Abed Hamed Mowhoush was being stubborn with his American captors, and a series of intense beatings and creative interrogation tactics were not enough to break his will. On the morning of Nov. 26, 2003, a U.S. Army interrogator and a military guard grabbed a green sleeping bag, stuffed Mowhoush inside, wrapped him in an electrical cord, laid him on the floor and began to go to work. Again. It was inside the sleeping bag that the 56-year-old detainee took his last breath through broken ribs, lying on the floor beneath a U.S. soldier in Interrogation Room 6 in the western Iraqi desert. Two days before, a secret CIA-sponsored group of Iraqi paramilitaries, working with Army interrogators, had beaten Mowhoush nearly senseless, using fists, a club and a rubber hose, according to classified documents.

War and Empire in Fourth of July Cartoons
Edited by Jim Zwick
C
uba Libre!" was a popular rallying cry within the United States during the Spanish-American War. Before the war, both Congress and President William McKinley renounced any intention to annex Cuba. "I do not speak of forcible annexation," McKinley said in a message to Congress, "because that is not to be thought of, and under our code of morality that would be criminal aggression." Despite the pre-war rhetoric, the Spanish-American War ended with a treaty that ceded to the United States control of Cuba, Puerto Rico, Guam and the Philippines. Only Cuba was promised eventual independence. The strong anti-imperialist sentiment that preceded the war and inspired wartime slogans presented problems after the war to those who supported annexation of Spain's former colonies. During the colonization of the Philippines, which required a protracted war and provoked the most heated opposition within the United States, Independence Day was used to mark transitions in U.S. rule. The first civilian U.S. government was established in the Philippines on July 4, 1901, and President Theodore Roosevelt declared the Philippine-American War over on July 4, 1902. The symbolic use of the Fourth of July masked the establishment of a colonial government and the defeat of the Philippine Revolution for independence, the very opposite of what the date signified in U.S. history.

n. The war between the American colonies and Great Britain (1775–1783), leading to the formation of the independent United States.
Encyclopedia
American Revolution, 1775–83, struggle by which the Thirteen Colonies on the Atlantic seaboard of North America won independence from Great Britain and became the United States. It is also called the American War of Independence. Causes and Early Troubles By the middle of the 18th cent., differences in life, thought, and interests had developed between the mother country and the growing colonies. Local political institutions and practice diverged significantly from English ways, while social customs, religious beliefs, and economic interests added to the potential sources of conflict. The British government, like other imperial powers in the 18th cent., favored a policy of mercantilism ; the Navigation Acts were intended to regulate commerce in the British interest. These were only loosely enforced, however, and the colonies were by and large allowed to develop freely with little interference from England.

John Hammond stars as John Geyser, a Southerner caught "betwixt and between" when he becomes a war correspondent for the Northern newspaper published by his uncle. Like a Civil War-era Forrest Gump, he finds himself "where history's in the making," from the Battle of Bull Run to the scene of President Abraham Lincoln's assassination. Stacy Keach costars as an Army scout who takes the "fresh off the farm" Geyser under his wing. Julia Duffy is the schoolmarm who loves Keach. The ham-handed dialogue is a guilty pleasure ("What's wrong with this land that produces such a bitter fruit?" asks the embittered Geyser). The meticulously mounted battle scenes, though, are a Civil War reenactor's dream.
