Politics
The Commonwealth was a period officially lasting from 1649 to 1660, but really began with the Long Parliament in 1640. At that time, Charles I called Parliament to pass finance bills, since his administration was nearly bankrupt after wars. However, there were were grave disputes over Charles' perceived misconduct in financial and religious matters. Parliament voted to largely strip the King of his powers. After a decade of civil war, eventually Charles I was tried and executed in 1649. The Commonwealth was a hotbed of radical groups: including the Ranters, Levellers, Diggers (or True Levellers), Quakers, and Seekers. In London, 1661 saw the last vestiges of unrest against the Monarchy. Thomas Venner, a leader of a military faction of the Fifth Monarchy Men, who had made attempts against Oliver Cromwell in 1658. The first few days of Jan. 1661, a small group of Fifth Monarchy Men, Baptists and some 4000 Quakers attempted to overthrow the civil government in London. After a few days of of local fighting the rebel forces were defeated and arrested. The ring leaders were tried and sentenced to death. Many of their supporters were arrested and sent to prison.
Religion
Science
The first half of the 1600's saw the birth of empirical science, with the time of Galileo and Sir Francis Bacon. During the Interregnum, there were many followers interested in the methods, but the chaotic political landscape kept them from publically organizing. Their meetings were sometimes referred to as the "Invisible College."

The Act followed the defeat of King Charles. In Wales it was intended to root out dissident clergymen, but it also led to the opening up of 63 new schools in which children were taught to read and write (albeit in English). The Act also created a new class of literate ministers and enthusiastic preachers whose influence in Wales was a lasting one, doing much to prepare the ground for cultivation by the Methodists a century later. 1662.

Bedfordshire was a county with strong Puritan sympathies during the 17th century. The Puritan household would aspire to have the father lead his wife, children and servants in prayer, provide religious instruction and teach his children to read the Bible at an early age. In everyday Puritan life there was meant to be no idleness, swearing, lying or frivolous amusements. In business, there were meant to be no unjust prices, high wages, money lending or cheating. Above all, the Sabbath was holy, a day given over entirely to worship, sermons and reading the Scriptures. The county of Bedfordshire was rural and most ordinary people worked on land owned by the local gentry. Their modest homes would be heated by a fire of wood, peat or coal and the floors would be made of earth. A cottage garden would be devoted to herbs and vegetables, with perhaps one or two fruit trees. Most children would receive no education at all, although some would go to a country school to learn the three R's, and some to the free school in Bedford. Children of the gentry would be taught at home or sent away to school. For leisure some enjoyed music, either learning tunes by ear or playing instruments such as the lute, virginals (early form of keyboard) or fiddle. Books were mainly religious, although some drama was read.

John Ketcham: Man Or Myth?
Article By Lisa Marie
There actually was a man named John Ketcham and he did visit Salem for a short time. However, he didn't live there and he didn't practice witchcraft. I believe the whole accusation of witchery comes from a bit of religious intolerance and another man by the name of John Ketcham who came along about 162 years later. Why is being a witch from Salem so important? Let's look at Salem itself, home of the most well known and highly documented persecutions. Witch hysteria hit the Puritans of Salem and Salem Village. It also touched other small towns in Massachusetts Bay Colony. In January of 1692 two young girls, Elizabeth Parris and Abigail Williams, were taken by strange fits and hallucinations They just happened to be the daughter and niece of the local pastor, Rev. Samuel Parris. Shortly after that several others were afflicted. Soon the entire town was called to prayer and fasting in an attempt to disperse what they thought was an evil presence. Within 10 months 160 people would be accused. 23 would be found guilty and sentenced to death. One man would refuse trial and be pressed to death. 13 more died in prison. 50 confessed to witchcraft, very likely to avoid trial and sentencing. In October of 1692, Governor William Phips put an end to the special witchcraft court in Salem. The town of Salem now has a special memorial and elaborate grave stones for the innocent people who were brutally murdered. Was the devil afoot in Salem? Some have supposed the fevers, hallucinations and convulsions were the result of ergot poisoning. Ergot is a bacteria which grows on rye when it goes bad. Rye was a staple of the people in that day. Ergot occurs when the weather is damp and the rye gets moldy. Rye was also a staple of the Algonquin people of Long Island. But that's another story all together.

Over the centuries the name began to refer to a much wider area. Today, the Trossachs is bordered by the Crianlarich Hills and Balquhidder in the north and Aberfoyle and the Loch Ard forest in the south, while the shores of Loch Lomond mark its westernmost boundaries and Callender its easternmost. The area includes mountains, hills and glens, seven major lochs and many more small lochs, a rich variety of scenery as well as some picturesque towns, such as Callander, Strathyre and Aberfoyle. In 2002 the opening of the 'Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park' was seen as recognition of the value of preserving this largely unspoiled landscape.

Timeline of events surrounding the life of Joris Dircksen Brinckerhoff and other Dutch settlers in New Netherlands)
Timelines are a way of presenting a sequence of events. They provide the reader with incredible power to visualize the context of a particular event. Through the use of a timeline we can better understand the world in which our ancestor lived and thus better understand them and the decisions they made. History set in a context of the times in which Joris Dircksen Brinckerhoff lived is critical to understanding his life experiences, his family's joys and sorrows, their struggles in life and their accomplishments. Our lives can best be appreciated when placed in a context of the times in which our family founders lived. The context of social, religious, economic and political forces give the yardsticks or standards by which we measure them and ourselves.

The Roman Empire.
The urge to inform the public of official developments and pronouncements has been a characteristic of most autocratic rulers. This urge was fulfilled in ancient Rome by the Acta Diurna ("Daily Events"), a daily gazette dating from 59 BC and attributed in origin to Julius Caesar. Handwritten copies of this early journal were posted in prominent places in Rome and in the provinces with the clear intention of feeding the populace official information. The Acta Diurna was not, however, restricted to proclamations, edicts, or even to political decisions taken in the Roman Senate, the actions of which were reported separately in the Acta Senatus (literally "Proceedings of the Senate"). The typical Acta Diurna might contain news of gladiatorial contests, astrological omens, notable marriages, births and deaths, public appointments, and trials and executions. Such reading matter complemented the usual fare of military news and plebiscite results also given in the Acta Diurna and presaged the future popularity of such newspaper fillers as horoscopes, the obituary column, and the sports pages.

It is currently supplemented in my course by the Oxford Book of Essays and by library resources.

    Lead Miner's Heyday
    Here are extracts from a book about the great days of lead mining in the Wirksworth Area, its chief industry for hundreds of years. It was a very tough life, very different from our own today, with strange customs and organization. Most people with Wirksworth ancestors will have a lead miner somewhere in the family. Ron Slack's book vividly describes the miner's life and the problems he had to overcome. It is full of detail, and I consider essential reading for those interested in their Wirksworth ancestors.
