AWARD-WINNING PUBLICATION!!! Many Emigrants came from England to the New York City area in the late 1600s-early 1700s. Members of the Burling family in Essex, England, were persecuted for their Quaker beliefs. When they arrived in New York, they soon joined Friends Meeting and maintained membership through three-four generations, with some Burling descendants active and birthright Friends to this day. They intermarried and interacted with family members of many familiar names (see below).Their history is interwoven with the early history of England, the New York area (New York City, Westchester, Long Island, New Jersey, up-state New York). Later they migrated to Michigan, Illinois, Mississippi, and California.

Marquand and his relatives; plantation life in Natchez MS; canal barge boatbuilders of upstate New York; Mary Hallock Foote, famed author and illustrator, supporting her family in the untamed west via stories and artistry of mining camps, mountains, deserts and plains.
