Book Description
Little did we know that a curiosity to find out more about the Marley family would lead to thousands of hours of research, many delightful journeys, and span more than a dozen years of effort. In 1986 my wife, Lynn (Marley) Coffey, and I started a family research effort that brought us to James Marley in Sampson County, North Carolina, in the year 1794. From there our journey revealed the presence of six Marley families in North Carolina: three families in Chatham County (several members of which moved to Wilkes County), with Randoph, Orange, and Edgecombe Counties each providing yet another family. Members of these original six families spread out across the South, West, and Mid-West (Tennesee, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Kentucky, Texas, Indiana, Iowa, Illinois, Missouri, and Kansas) and a few stayed in North Carolina. Descendants of all of the six families contributed genealogical information. Our research deepened with the assistance of the Marley Family Association, which has been established by Dr. Michael Frost, Mrs. Joyce Hensen, and Mrs Ruth Ray. Exchanges of information at the annual Association meetings and research trips each Spring generated even more Marley Family data. Our quest for the families' heritage was collaboration with these individuals and many, many others, including Kay Somerville, Ruth Ann Jones, and Eleanor Peak. Some other family names in this book are: Bray, Bruce, Caswell, Chapman, Drake, Elliott, Hall, Mabene, Marlow, Nettles, Peak, Shine, Sutton, Swaim, Teague, Underwood, White.

The Nutcracker Comes to America
Author: Chris Barton
Publisher: Millbrook Press
ISBN: 1467788481
Category : Juvenile Nonfiction
Languages : en
Pages : 48
Book Description
Every December, The Nutcracker comes to life in theaters all across the United States. But how did this 19th-century Russian ballet become such a big part of the holidays in 21st-century America? Meet Willam, Harold, and Lew Christensen, three small-town Utah boys who caught the ballet bug in the early 1900s. They performed on vaudeville and took part in the New York City dance scene. Russian immigrants shared the story of The Nutcracker with them, and during World War II, they staged their own Christmastime production in San Francisco. It was America's first full-length version and the beginning of a delightful holiday tradition.
