They originated with a group of Moravian nd Bohemian exiles, who traced their heritage to the Hussite movement and who in 1722 settled on the Saxon estate of Count Nicholas Ludwig von Zinzendorf. Under the Count's guidance, they created a community, Herrnhut, that brought economic, > >political, and family life in addition to religion under the guidance of the Holy Spirit. Moravians carried this model across the Atlantic and planted it in the Carolina piedmont backcountry. They called their new community the Wachau, or Wachovia, and Salem became the hub of this settlement with > >subordinate villages clustered about it. Moravians built other settlements in Europe and America, but Sommer's study focuses on Herrnhut and Salem. > > > >First-generation Herrnhut may have been closer to feudal Europe than to Revolutionary America. Zinzendorf and the early Moravians, according to Sommer, "were, in many ways, children more of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries than of their > >own" (p. 89). Like all villages in the early modern era, inhabitants of Moravian communities were interdependent, and the economy was anything but free enterprise. Masters did not compete with each another, and journeymen did not contract independently for employment. > > > >Herrnhut, however, took regulation a step further than secular communities by bringing other aspects of life, especially families, under the authority of the group. The community, not parents, selected the apprenticeship and trade for children. The community government chose marital partners, supervised > >child-rearing, and even regulated visits between siblings of opposite sex, so eager were Moravians to separate genders. > > > >A rich, complex devotional life influenced by Pietism and emphasizing emotion and spirituality motivated individuals to contribute to these intricate community relations. By bringing early modern values under the influence of the Spirit, Moravians baptized the secular village community" (p. 31). Liturgies, > >communions, holidays, festivals, anniversaries, hymn-sings, and Love Feasts wrapped spirituality around commitment to the community. Although scholars writing about other topics have found that the individualism of Pietism eroded authority and > >encouraged egalitarianism, Sommer believes that in Moravian communities this faith system promoted structure. > > > >Second-generation Moravians in both Europe and America chafed at this well-ordered system their parents had created, but Sommer argues that rebelliousness in the Wachau took different forms and was stronger. In Germany challenges to authority fell within traditional methods of resistance. Dissenters appealed > >to proper social roles, or rebellious brethren simply ignored authorities and did things their own way. Moravians in Salem, though, felt the influence of the American Revolution and the American woods. The brothers, at least, voted more frequently in public elections, and elders considered political > >participation so important that they recommended candidates for office to the Brethren. Leadership noted that young men indulged in rough speech and spent their time hunting and shooting instead of working. Cheap land encouraged farming rather than the trades, which scattered families across the > >countryside and inspired Brethren to fulfill the popular American role of the independent yeoman, hardly the image of a faithful and obedient member of the community. Others left their assigned trades without permission or for higher wages outside the commune. Salem brethren became increasingly > >interested in land speculation. Couples courted covertly, and parents argued with the community over decisions about their children. New arrivals to Salem generally noticed a "free manner" (p. 166), but Salem leadership more specifically interpreted the appeals to freedom as distinctly American, convinced that "the wilderness had invaded the refuge" (p. 170). This growing individualism and resistance to authority > >unraveled the regulation and deference on which Moravian communities were built. Gordon Wood and Frederick Jackson Turner would be pleased. > > > >Minor themes add to Sommer's persuasiveness. Sommer > >acknowledges that generational factors explain some of the defiance. First generation Moravians made a decision to join Herrnhut or Salem while second generation Brethren, who were born into it, naturally questioned what the previous generation had created. Also, Sommer credits the Enlightenment's influence > >over young Moravians for some of the changes, but her > >description of the Enlightenment as a series of debates over reason, human nature, and freedom that "fell outside stately philosophical tomes" (p. xii) is a bottom-up definition consistent with her reliance on Gordon Wood. > > > >Sommer's most interesting chapter, "Gambling with God," > >discusses the erosion of the lot as the Age of Reason increasing influenced Moravians. Though the first generation Brethren had developed an effective administrative system, they still asked the "true head," i. e., God, through the lot to make all the > >important decisions, especially about marriage, readmission after expulsion, and confirmation for office. The most common method was to submit two written statements expressing the divine will: "The Savior approves" whatever was being proposed > >and the converse, "the Savior does not approve." A member of the Elders Council then pulled one of these papers from a container. Criticisms of this procedure appeared early. Some questioned whether individuals should be required to obey the lot even if they did not write the questions, and, more specifically, some feared that the lot would send them to the > >mission field in Ethiopia without their consent. Moreover, leaders could manipulate the lot by rewording and redrawing it until they got the answer they wanted. Second generation Moravians, influenced by the Enlightenment, suggested that God was too rational to use such an irrational system and that the > >lot was just a matter of luck. They asked why business and home ownership, which had no spiritual element, should be submitted, and they particularly resisted exposing marriage plans to the lot. Increasingly members urged that decisions be left to > >"brotherly reason." Finally, in 1801 the Brethren removed the lot in election confirmation but only after receiving affirmation for this from the lot. Sommer explains diminishing support for the lot as evidence of the growing influence of reason and individualism. > > > >Two topics--the Sifting Period and slavery--are conspicuous by > >their near-absence from the book. The Sifting Period was a time > >of extreme emotionalism and irrationalism in which Moravians > >became preoccupied with the physical aspect of Christ's > >crucifixion. The thorns, the blood, the nails, the cross all held special meaning and fascination. As Moravians pondered the wounds, they left worldly concerns to Christ. But Sommer ignores most of this, and in one paragraph she rushes over the Sifting Period, explaining it as part of the devotional ritual > >and emotional faith that baptized the secular community. Does she mean to be revisionist and claim that previous scholars have incorrectly described or overemphasized the Sifting Period, or does this aspect of Moravianism merely fall outside the > >parameters of her study? Given the Sifting Period's stress on irrationalism and Sommer's emphasis on reason, more attention to this topic might be helpful. > > > >Sommer similarly has little to say about slavery. Carolina Moravians owned other persons, which Sommer interprets as "another aspect of American opportunity, or, even, of freedom." But she hints of a larger story with the remark that "the Brethren incorporated slaves into their spiritual life on a roughly equal parity as Brothers and Sisters" (p. 123). Did > >inclusion of Blacks into Moravian spiritual life stem from an alternative view of race? If Moravians drank freely from the Revolution and the Enlightenment, as Sommer argues, did that include the heightened antislavery sentiment that came with these movements? Another recent work, Jon F. Sensbach's _A > >Separate Canaan: The Making of an Afro-Moravian World in North Carolina, 1763-1840_ (University of North Carolina Press, 1998) finds that Moravians became increasingly fond of the South's institution, a less democratic image of Moravianism somewhat at odds with Sommer. Perhaps Moravians in Salem were Southern as > >well as American. _Serving Two Masters_ leaves us pondering what direction it might have have taken had it said more about how these Germans and Pietists, under the influence of the Revolution, treated their human property. > > > >Also curious is Sommer's use of the New England Puritans as a comparative. She cites New England Calvinists, especially their Half-Way covenant, as another group accused of declension but which, she believes, more likely adapted to maintain the next > >generation. Although Puritans conveniently possess a full shelf of secondary literature, and Sommer's allusion to them contributes to her book with an another vision unraveled in the North American woods, the middle colonies offer more immediate > >comparisons. Contemporary observers in this region noted some of the same democratic trends that Sommer finds among Carolina Moravians. Henry M. Muhlenberg invoked Judges 17:6--"In those days there was no king in Israel, but every man did that which was right in his own eyes"--to lament the independence of > >Pennsylvania Lutherans. Quakers and Pennsylvania German > >Anabaptists were closer to Moravians geographically and > >chronologically and more similar theologically. Anabaptists, of course, were also Germans. Quakers even suffered declension but restored discipline at approximately the same time that Moravians headed into the woods. Did the Revolution and the backcountry impact these middle colony fellowships as it did > >Moravians? Sommer may have found better comparisons closer to > >home. > > > >But these questions are small points, and _Serving Two Masters_ will interest a variety of scholars. Although the topic is a bit too arcane and maybe too dry for most classrooms, North Carolina-area teachers with students already vaguely familiar with the Moravians, or at least with Salem, might want to > >incorporate a few examples from the book into lessons on > >democratization.

    1. [KORNEGAY-L] Kornegay web site
    2. Hi yall, Boy am I sorry I used the word silent and I surely did not mean to upset yall. I was only trying to help. simple as that. I just wanted to help........and add to what yall have already accomplished. The reason I am mostly an observer is because I have my hands full with the rootsweb mail list of my surname McGlaughon/McGlaun/McGlohon/McGlauhon and about 15 other spellings of the same name. and its suposedly Scottish ....which we can prove absolutely nothing on before 1720. I surely did not mean to insult anyone or anything anyone has done. Yall work hard and I enjoy reading the rootsweb post (that I myself use for my surname and have no intentions of dropping ) I personally found about 59 other people who are now on the list and I knew only 2 of them when I started. I LOVE ROOTSWEB. they have been gooooooood to me. and more help than I could ever explain as I am sure you all already know from your own experience. I hate commercials but what do you expect when you get something for free. click them off or don't look at them. I couldn't tell you what they advertise and I know I have 7 sites on myfamily. I have been to Jerry Quinns site and its wonderful to find the names you are looking for somewhere. I have my Kornegay names on my family tree site and my aol site has anyone ever found them? family tree has been there for about 5 or 6 yrs. all of these sites are nice but they aren't interactive. interactive I mean we can all use them. Benny Thank You so much for posting the pictures.....I personally have never met a Kornegay or saw a picture of one and I love old pictures...seeing who I am. doesn't everyone? I love genealogy and I spend a lot of time with it even when I am not on a computer online. but I only have so much time in a day and I work from 8:00 am and i get home at around 6:00 pm and I have to be bossed around all day by my husband Joe who is the boss and I work with my son and daughter an 8 other people and I run our office, home, cabin, I help my Mama and my Granny and my Brother who is totally blind and I try to find out who I am and why I am in genealogy. My McGlaun family had not had a reunion since 1955 when I was 4 yrs old and I remembered it. The 2yrs before my father died I got into genealogy to entertain my Daddy and I did with all kinds of info about all his lines Kornegay was from my Daddy''s Mothers side (her parents died before she was 12) and we never knew them. So I gave a McGlaun reunion and called all over America spent hundreds of dollars on just phone calls inviting people to the reunion. And after 40 yrs in 1995 we had another reunion in the same place Liberty Hill Methodist Church and graveyard and old home place. There were about 120 people showed up. In Chattahoochee Co., Georgia. It was the happiest day of my life my Daddy was so proud and so were the others to see each other. And 8 months later my Daddy died. It became even more important to me. Now genealogy is what I spend every moment I have putting the pieces of the puzzle together and I love it ......I am hooked..... What I am trying to say is. I don't know you and you don't know me but we are Kornegay descendents......and I am proud of that.....wish I could spend more time working on it but 3 children, 2 grandchildren, job, home, and all the other things pull too. and I have to chose. But what I could do for you my Kornegay cousins is give you place to share your pictures, your documents, the letters, anything you want to share. What I know I gladly share with any of you. I just wanted to help. I understand your concern about others not being able to find you but there are so many places where the name is listed to pull them into the group the myfamily site is for storing your information where you don't have to worry about it. its there when you want to see it. and you don't have to worry about your computer crashing an losing it all. As far as keeping up with the passwords and all that .........let myfamily keep your password for you.....it asks you can it...........let it........ When I bought my Brother a computer.......this is one of the pieces of advice I gave him and my Mama (she bought one so she could talk to all 3 of her kids) buy an address book just like the one you would use for telephone numbers and write your screennames and passwords in that. it works. I use one but I let the sites keep my password also so I don't have to put it in everytime. and you can use the same name and password for all of your myfamily sites. there is a drop down box on the upper left side and it has the names of your different sites and you just select which one an it takes you right to it. and you can post things to several sites at once. it is just really nice.........its like our own little magazine. My McGlaughon site has about 6 pages of pictures and I don't know how many pages of History. I hope yall would at least go and look and give it a minute before you decide not to. You might enjoy seeing one of Benny's pictures on the front page of the Kornegay Home Site. And yall can add anything to the site you want and invite people once you are inside. I hope yall enjoy it was done just for the sake of being nice to you not to offend anyone I promise. Vicki McGlaun Culpepper

Be well, my cousins! >>>>>>>>>>> Cousins: I really liked the comments from the cousin who wrote the above. I think her advice is good and wise. "I would like to move on and enjoy what we have". Before I can do that, I would like to thank all of you for your help and support, I appreciate Kathlynn's kind words, but feel that every spoke in the wheel of this family is just as important as the other. We each have our own unique part of this history to add if we so choose . Cousins Vickie, Kathy and Sandy, you are right! The My Family.Com has obviously improved over time. It is a good place to store information and I had the the pleasure a few days ago of vewing the wonderful pictures that Benny has shared of his family. He is so fortunate to have them and I know that we all appreciate his sharing. Most of our family pictures were lost in flood and fire. I am sorry to have complained. I accept the right of any of you to be silent if you wish, for any reason. Tho, I must admit that the term annoyed me, as I mentioned to Kathlynn. I am sure, that I would fare much better if I were much less verbal and I promise to work on that in the future. The thing that does bother me most, is that some cousins like Hazel and others, who have been so helpful, feels that their offerings are not welcomed or appreciated and that they are "put down". I for one, hope that I have never given that impression, if I did, I did not intend to. It could be, what some of us deem as discussion, others take as rejection. With that said, I wish for all of you HAPPY HUNTING and a new enthusiasm, for Family History and Fellowship. God Bless you all!

I didn't realize I had your old address on the accept list only and cleaned out my accept list. Everything is back to normal. I guess I put it on the accept list instead of the regular list so you won't receive double emails. If anyone is receiving duplicate emails please let me know so I can correct it. Sandy
