In Gardens and Gardening in the Chesapeake, Barbara Wells Sarudy recovers this lost world using a remarkable variety of sources - historic maps, travelers' accounts, diaries, paintings (some on the back of Baltimore painted chairs), account ledgers, catalogues, and newspaper advertisements. She offers an engaging account of the region's earliest gardens, introducing us to the people who designed and tended these often elaborate landscapes and explaining the forces and finances behind their creation. From the favorite books of early gardeners to the republican balance between table and ornamental gardens, Sarudy includes details that give us an understanding of Chesapeake gardening from settlement through the early national period.

When Benjamin Franklin adopted John Bartram's 1739 idea of bringing together the "virtuosi" of the colonies to promote inquiries into "natural secrets, arts and syances," the result was, in 1743, the founding of the American Philosophical Society. Bell records the early years of the Society through sketches of its first members, those elected between 1743 and 1769. This volume includes biographies of some of the Society's best known members such as Franklin, David Rittenhouse, John Bartram, Benjamin Rush, John Dickinson, Thomas Hopkinson and many lesser known merchants, artisans, farmers, physicians, lawyers and clergymen with familiar surnames such as Biddle, Colden, and Morris.

William Farrie (ca. 1745-1805), of Scottish lineage, emigrated in 1772 with his wife, Agnes, and their family from northern Ireland to Rocky Creek, Chester County, South Carolina, served in the Revolutionary War with the colonists, and moved to York County after 1778. Descendants (chiefly spelling the surname Faris) lived in South Carolina, Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, South Dakota, Washington, California and elsewhere.
This work contains all the family history articles published in the "Maryland Historical Magazine" from its inception through 1976. Most of the articles begin with the first member of the family in Maryland and trace descendants in the male line down to the early eighteenth century. Since they have been largely inaccessible to the researcher, we have excerpted these articles in entirety and rearranged them in this comprehensive two-volume work, adding an introduction by a noted Maryland genealogist and personal name indexes. The consolidated articles--nearly 100 in number-- now form a reference work of a type long needed in Maryland genealogy.
