For ten generations, the Hemsby family has passed the family
moniker, Albert, to a son. From Sir Alfred Hemsby whose sons sailed
to Virginia seeking religious freedom, to Alfred Hemsby (the tenth)
born in 1934, the family has experienced every great event and its
associated trials and tribulations over the course of three hundred
years.
The Hemsby's family women passed meticulously kept journals and
diaries from generation to generation. These writings not only
detail each family's milestones-births, marriages, deaths-but also
their quests for religious freedom; struggles to find work and be
treated equally; service to their country in every American
conflict; and drive to influence American politics.
Young Albert Hemsby (the tenth), influenced by his mother
Annette, is the next Hemsby to advance the family story. Reading
the diaries, he carefully pieces together his ancestry and moves
the family forward from 1934 through the chaotic 60s and toward the
future's political statehood.
Intricately woven through the Hemsby's story are verses 1-24 of
Genesis Chapter 3. Within the context of Adam and Eve's fall from
grace, author George England explores how one family's greatness
can bring positive influences to a caustic world of greed, bigotry,
disease, and war.
