Examining the sources of the Plymouth Colony Pages [Part 27]

Erastus R. Ellis, Biographical Sketches of Richard Ellis, the First Settler of Ashfield, Mass., and His Descendants (Detroit: Wm. Graham Printing Co., 1888).

This 1888 book, only has FOUR mentions of Packards:

"Stephen Bartlett Ellis, son of Seth, of Thetford, Vt., born 1810, married Abigail Newcomb in Thetford, Mav 3d, 1832. They had four children : A. Elmina, Amanda P., Henry E. and Sarah O. The eldest, Abigail Elmina, born Feb. 14th, 1833, married Nathan Andrews June 3d, 1852, and they live in Meriden, N. H., where Mr. Andrews is a farmer. They have had twelve children...The eldest, John S. Andrews, born 1853, married Carrie L. Packard, and the have one child, Cora" -pp 264-265

"Twelve young men who served in the Revolutionary war settled in Ashfield, before it closed or soon after. Their names were as follows: Lot Bassett, Stephen Warren, Solomon Hill, Caleb Church, Joseph Gurney, Laban Stetson, Caleb Packard, Ezekiel Taylor, David Vincent, Jonathan Sears, Calvin Maniard, Timothy Catlin, Zebina Leonard, Benjamin Shaw"- p 305

"Henry Sears Ranney...[of his] four children none are now living...[one was] Ella L., born m Charlestown, Mass., Sept. 24, 1847; she died in Ashfield, Dec. 21, 1874. She m , Jan. 21, 1869, Albert W. Packard. Her children: Austin G. was born in Brooklyn, X. Y., Jan, 24, 1870; [and] Ella M. born Dec. 15, 1874."- pp 390-391 

 "Elisha Bassett, with Susanna, his wife, settled on the farm now owned by Ezra Packard, near the great pond."- p 407

And that's it.

Frederick Clifton Pierce, Field Genealogy Being the Record of All the Field Family In America ..., 2 Vols. (Chicago: Hammond Press, 1901).

There are a few Packards in this book, but mainly as those who commanded military units that Field family members were part of. You don't need to search this on ancestry or look at it on HathiTrust to realize that.

Robert Charles Anderson, The Great Migration Begins: Immigrants to New England 1620-1633, 3 vols. (Boston: Great Migration Study Project, New England Historic Genealogical Society, 1995).

There is one results for Packards within this book. Nothing else can be used from this book as a result.

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.

New Orleans Clan:

Marie Laveau, renowned Voodoo Queen of the French Quarter.  

#marie laveau #women #voodoo #conjure #new orleans clan #bayou #priests #19th century

[generallygothic]

Stunningly portrayed by Angela Bassett in American Horror Story: Coven, Marie Laveau is based upon the real Voodoo Queen of New Orleans (c.1801 - 1881). Historical records assert that Laveau was of mixed African, Native American, and French decent, and mothered at least 7 children, only two (both also named Marie) of whom survived into adulthood. One of these two daughters became Marie II, reigning as Voodoo Queen after her mother's death. Records blend the history of the two [/three] Maries, and a clear picture of each is thus hard to paint. Marie I may have worked as a brothel's madame, and as a hairdresser. It is speculated that the rich, white clients of the latter served as a network of spies, providing the information that she passed off as divinations. She is rumoured to have owned a pet snake, named for the African God, Zombi, and to have delivered cures through New Orleans voodooo - a mixture of African, Native American, and Louisiana spiritualism. Whatever the truth, records tend to agree that she commanded attention, and a great following, throughout New Orleans. Buried in the city, her grave became a target of vandalism - an 'X' inscribed in the stone was believed to grant wishes - and can no longer be visited without a guide. 📸: 'Marie Laveau', Frank Schneider (1920), based on George Catlin's potentially lost painting (1835). . #generallygothic #gothic #seasonofthewitch #witch #witchcraft #witchesofinstagram #witchyvibes #witchaesthetic #marielaveau #thevoodooqueenofneworleans #neworleans #louisiana #voodoo #spiritualism #divination #africangods #zombi #grave #nativeamericanspiritualism #africanspiritualism #louisianavoodoo #magic #divination #hair #snake #ahscoven #coven #grantwishes #angelabassett #americanhorrorstory https://www.instagram.com/p/Bx5GgjAAIMn/?igshid=1chiggpocig96
