Excerpt from Address on the Life and Services of Brigadier General Jethro Sumner: At the Battle Ground of Guilford Court House, July 4th, 1891 Jethro Sumner, the elder. Died early, leaving three chil dren, Thomas, already named, Jethro and Sarah. Thomas lived many years and died a bachelor, though not child less. General Sumner's will shows that he did not devise h'is Manor plantation to him, but bequeathed him only a legacy in money. Sarah married a man with the singular name of Rush worms, whose family seems to have become extinct. Jethro Sumner, the younger, was born in 1733 and was probably about twelve years of age at the death of his father. How long he had been deprived of a mother's care we do not know. There is a-tradition that he was well cared for by his mother's mother. It is important to understand the influences by which his character was moulded and his physical powers fitted for the rough life he was destined to undergo. To use the word so much a favorite with scientists, what were his environments in childhood and boyhood? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
