## Biography

Born in Lake, Mississippi, Littlejohn first learned to play the blues from Henry Martin, a friend of his father's. In 1946 he left home and traveled widely, spending time in Jackson, Mississippi; Arkansas; Rochester, New York; and Gary, Indiana. He settled in Gary in 1951, playing whenever possible in the nearby Chicago area. Through his connections in Gary, he was acquainted with Joe Jackson, the patriarch of the musical Jackson family, and Littlejohn and his band reputedly served as an occasional rehearsal band for the Jackson 5 in the mid- to late 1960s.
Littlejohn played regularly in Chicago clubs (he was filmed by drummer Sam Lay playing with Howlin' Wolf's band about 1961) but did not make any studio recordings until 1966, when he cut singles for several record labels. Later that year he recorded an album for Arhoolie Records and four songs for Chess Records. The Chess tracks were not issued at the time.
He recorded a few singles for small local labels but did not record another album until 1985, when Rooster Blues issued So-Called Friends. Soon after, he fell into ill health. He died of renal failure in Chicago, on February 1, 1994, at the age of 62.

# John Greystoke, 4th Baron Greystoke

John Greystoke, 4th Baron Greystoke (c. 1390–1436), son and heir of Ralph Greystoke, 3rd Baron Greystoke, was a member of the northern English nobility in the early fifteenth century.

## Royal service

Born c. 1390, on his father's death and his elevation to the title, Greystoke "soon became enmeshed in border politics and Anglo-Scottish negotiations." He was appointed constable of Roxburgh Castle in 1421, being paid £1,000 p.a. during time of truce and double that in time of war, for a four-year contract, when he was replaced by Sir Robert Ogle. Twice, in 1424, and again six years later, he was a member of ambassadorial expeditions to treat with the Scots. The first of these discussions resulted in a truce with Scotland in March. Indeed, this embassy also took the role of providing an escort back to Scotland for the newly married James I who had recently married the king's cousin Joan. The second resulted in a further- tenuous- extension to the truce, a not insignificant achieving in view, as one historian has put it, of the fact that Greystoke and his fellow negotiators ran the gauntlet "whilst on Scottish soil."
Service to the crown was not however confined to the border; in 1430-1 he acted, at the behest of the royal council, as a royal commissioner to collect loans amounting to £400 to assist in the prosecution of the French wars. He acted as an adjudicator in local gentry quarrels, alongside peers such as the earl of Northumberland.

## Wealth and regional influence

In the Income Tax of 1436, he was assessed at an income of £650 p.a, and although never belonging to the higher echelons of the northern nobility, his family has been described as being regionally "a force to be reckoned with," in a relatively compact area that "jostled" with such landowning families. Although traditionally the Greystoke family had been retained by the Percies, Earls of Northumberland, by the 1430s John had come within the sphere of Richard Neville, 5th Earl of Salisbury.
He was known for his piety, bequeathing valuable items to his father's clerical college, including vestments, ornaments, "and lead to repair the choir."

## Personal life

Greystoke was married to Elizabeth Ferrers, though the date of their union is unknown. She was born in 1393, a daughter of Joan Beaufort, a cousin of the king, by her first marriage to Sir Robert Ferrers. They had a son, Ralph, who later succeeded to the barony. He dictated his will on 10 July 1436; dead less than a month later, he was buried, according to his wish, in Greystoke church.
# John H. Walker

John Hunter Walker (April 27, 1872 – August 27, 1955) was a Scottish-born American labor unionist and politician.
Born in Binniehill, in Scotland, Walker emigrated to the United States with his family in 1881. They settled in Braidwood, Illinois, and the same year, Walker began working at a colliery in Coal City, Illinois. Two years later, he joined the Knights of Labor, aged just 11.
Walker later returned to Scotland, but soon came back to the United States. He joined the United Mine Workers of America and soon became a full-time organizer for the union, covering West Virginia. In that role, he met Mother Jones, and quickly became her closest associate in the union.
Walker later settled in Danville, Illinois, and in 1905, he was elected to the executive board of the union's District 12. He served as president of the district, from 1906 to 1909, and from 1910 to 1913. He was a supporter of the Socialist Party of America, and in 1906 he ran unsuccessfully for the United States House of Representatives.
In 1913, Walker was elected as president of the Illinois State Federation of Labor, serving until 1919, and again from 1920 to 1930. In 1915, he was a founder of the Illinois State Cooperative Society, and he served as its president until 1921; and in 1917, he served on the President's Mediation Commission.
In 1916, Walker was expelled from the Socialist Party, and in 1919 he joined what soon became the Farmer–Labor Party. He was elected as national chairman of the party, and stood for it unsuccessfully in the 1920 Illinois gubernatorial election.
Walker stood unsuccessfully for the presidency of the United Mine Workers in 1916, and again in 1918. He was an opponent of John L. Lewis, United Mine Workers president from 1920. In 1929, he participated in a conference of Illinois coal miners opposed to Lewis, and Lewis used this pretext to persuade American Federation of Labor president William Green to remove him from his Illinois Federation post. In 1930, the opposition group formed the Reorganized United Mine Workers of America, with Walker as secretary-treasurer. However, within months, Walker won an election for the presidency of District 12, against the wishes of Lewis.
In 1932, Walker negotiated a new contract with coal mine owners, which led to pay cuts of up to 30%. Despite attracting severe criticism, he held on as president. He stood down in 1944, to campaign for the re-election of the governor of Illinois, Dwight H. Green. After Green won, Walker was appointed to the Illinois Commerce Commission. He retired in 1948, and died seven years later.
# John Kingsbury

He held various town offices in Dedham, including pound keeper. Kingsbury was a town proprietor and was elected to the very first board of selectmen in 1639. He served as selectman for 12 years in total. Kingsbury also signed the Dedham Covenant. He was appointed by the Massachusetts Bay Colony to end small causes.
After selecting John Allin as pastor of the First Church and Parish in Dedham, Kingsbury's name was put forth with those of Ralph Wheelock, John Hunting, and Thomas Carter, to be ruling elder, with Hunting eventually being selected. Some of the land he owned is in what is today Needham, Massachusetts

## Personal life

Kingsbury was born in Boxford, Suffolk to John Kingsbury and traveled to Massachusetts with his older brother and sister-in-law in the early 1630s. He had a wife, Margarett.

## Life

From Lancashire, Madew became Fellow of St John's College, Cambridge in 1530. He graduated M.A, in 1533, then B.D. in 1543 and D. D. in 1546. His appointment as Regius Professor was around 1545. He was vice-chancellor on four occasions.
Madew became Master of Clare Hall after Roland Swynbourne, a committed Catholic, was ejected. He himself was removed from the post, after Queen Mary came to the throne in 1553.
In 1548 as Vice-chancellor Madew stopped a proposed disputation by Roger Ascham on the Eucharist. The next year, on 20 June, there was an official disputation on a similar topic. In the audience, in the philosophy schools, were William Parr, 1st Marquess of Northampton, and all the college Visitors. Madew was required to defend the Protestant side, against Alban Langdale, William Glyn and others. On that occasion Nicholas Ridley, there as a moderator of the discussion, frequently took up the argument rather than letting Madew speak.
At the end of his life Madew was reconciled to the Catholic church.
