INDEX

[5369]

She was the last of the Tudor rulers of England. Although her legitimacy
was questioned and never settled (because an act of Parliament [1536]
invalidated the marriage of her parents and enabled Henry to marry his
third wife, Jane Seymour), both Parliament and Henry named as heirs to
this throne his children Edward, later Edward VI; Mary, later Mary I; and
Elizabeth, in that order.

Elizabeth spent her childhood away from the court and received an
excellent classical education under such scholars as Roger Ascham, who
influenced her greatly. Henry's sixth wife, Catherine Parr, later became
fond of the young Elizabeth and brought her back to court. She remained in
Catherine's charge after Henry's death and took no part in the political
intrigues following the coronation of her brother as King Edward VI. When
Edward died, Elizabeth became a partisan of her sister Mary, refusing to
support the revolt led by the English soldier and conspirator Sir Thomas
Wyatt (1521?-54) against Mary, who became queen in 1553. Nevertheless,
Mary, a devout Roman Catholic, was made uneasy by the Protestantism of
Elizabeth and her potential menace as an heir to the throne. In 1554,
Elizabeth was imprisoned on the false charge of having been implicated in
Wyatt's rebellion. She was later released, having outwardly professed
Roman Catholicism, and regained Mary's favor.

At the death of Mary in 1558, Elizabeth became queen, beginning one of the
greatest reigns in English history. At the time of Elizabeth's accession,
England was torn by religious strife, was economically insecure, and was
involved in a disastrous war with France. To these problems Elizabeth
brought a thorough education, innate shrewdness, and a skill in diplomacy
that she had constantly exercised during the reigns of Edward and Mary,
when one mistake might have meant her death. Although she was excessively
vain and capricious, her monarchial duties were always her primary
concern. Her policies and her colorful personality made her extremely
popular with her subjects. Elizabeth's statecraft was due, to a great
extent, to her choice of able and wise advisers, most notably Sir Francis
Walsingham and William Cecil, 1st Baron Burghley.

Religion was Elizabeth's initial problem as queen. She reverted to
Protestantism immediately after Mary's death, and her first Parliament
(1559) had a Protestant majority. Between 1559 and 1563, this Parliament
passed religious legislation that became the doctrinal basis of the Church
of England. In the Elizabethan Compromise (1559), the Church of England
became the established church, and throughout Elizabeth's reign Roman
Catholics and Puritans were persecuted.

Elizabeth's domination of the period to which her name became attached was
due in part to the exuberant national spirit that she inspired and that
characterized all England during the second half of the 16th century. She
restored popular confidence in the monarchy, and a wave of prosperity
swept every field of endeavor. With the religious question settled and the
war with France concluded by the Treaty of Cateau-Cambrésis (1559),
England was able to develop industrially and economically. Under
Elizabeth's direction, the government began to regulate commerce and
industry on a national scale. England grew to be a great maritime power
with the exploits of such mariners as Sir Francis Drake and Sir Martin
Frobisher. A new system of standard coinage was introduced in 1560 to
replace the silver coins that had been considerably debased during the
preceding three reigns. As a result, prices fell to normal levels and
confidence in English money was restored. Foreign trade, encouraged by the
government, became a great capitalistic enterprise. The Royal Exchange of
London was opened in 1566, and the company of merchants that later became
the English East India Company was chartered in 1600. Above all this
activity stood the figure of Elizabeth. In the eyes of her subjects,
Elizabeth was England.

From the beginning of her reign, Elizabeth's marital status was a
political concern because there was no English heir to the throne.
Parliament insistently petitioned her to marry, but she replied with the
statement that she intended to live and die a virgin, and she became known
as the Virgin Queen. Her statement did not prevent her from toying
constantly with the idea of marriage. She was besieged by royal suitors,
each of whom she favored when it was in her political interest to do so.
Her affections, however, were bestowed on a succession of favorites,
notably Robert Dudley, 1st earl of Leicester, Sir Walter Raleigh, and
Robert Devereux, 2d earl of Essex.

Elizabeth's most delicate political problem was that involving her Roman
Catholic cousin, Mary, queen of Scots. Mary sought refuge in England after
being defeated in battle by her half brother, James Stuart, earl of Moray
(1531?-70). Elizabeth immediately imprisoned Mary because the Catholic
monarchs of Europe and her own Catholic subjects considered Elizabeth
illegitimate. By their reasoning, Mary was the lawful queen of England.
Thus, to Elizabeth, Mary was the potential center of conspiracy. Mary was
kept captive for years, giving rise to many plots by English Catholics for
her release. When in 1586 Walsingham, then secretary of state, discovered
a plot to assassinate Elizabeth and place Mary on the throne of England,
Elizabeth reluctantly agreed to have Mary executed in 1587. The execution
had serious results. Philip II of Spain had, for years, been troubled by
the raids of English mariners on his colonial possessions. Because both
Mary and Philip were Catholic, her death provided him with an added
stimulus to prosecute the war with England that had been going on since
1585; he therefore sent a fleet to invade the country in 1588. The Spanish
Armada, however, suffered an inglorious defeat, and England eventually
took the place of Spain as the great colonizer of the New World and the
reigning power on the seas. Moreover, by inflicting such defeat on
Catholic Spain, England established Protestantism as a force in
international politics.

Elizabeth's popularity waned toward the end of her reign because of her
heavy expenditures and abuse of royal power. Moreover, her policies became
weaker, her later ministers being less able than Cecil or Walsingham. The
close of Elizabeth's reign was disturbed by a revolt in Ireland that was
led by Hugh O'Neill. The 2d earl of Essex, Elizabeth's favorite,
unsuccessfully led an army against the Irish. When he returned to England,
he led a revolt against the queen and was executed in 1601. Following his
death, Elizabeth was disconsolate. She spent the last years of her life
unhappy and alone, having outlived a glorious age, the beginning of the
history of what would become modern England.

In addition to being a time of political triumphs, the Elizabethan era was
notable as one of the greatest periods of English literature. Edmund
Spenser, Christopher Marlowe, and Shakespeare were only a few of the host
of writers who created their great works under Elizabeth. The dramatic
personality of Elizabeth became the subject of a voluminous literature.

This person is from the unverified Fetter Family Tree in Ancestry.com in 2015. http://berks.pa-roots.com/books/montgomery/y02.html offers: The early history of the Yocom family will be found in the sketch of Harry Y. Yocom, grandson of Nicholas Yocom:

George Yocom, son of Nicholas, was born in Cumru township Oct. 3, 1803. He was an iron worker by trade, and he and his father bought the old Spohn estate in Lower Heidelberg township, consisting of 101 acres of the best land in the county. Here he engaged in farming until his son Benjamin took charge, and he then retired to Sinking Spring, where he died Aug. 17, 1881, aged seventy-seven years, ten months, fourteen days. He is buried in the cemetery at Sinking Spring. His wife Catharine Hemmig, daughter of John and Susanna Hemmig, was born Dec. 23, 1805, and she died April 21, 1874, aged sixty-eight years, three months, twenty-nine days. Their children were: William, a farmer near Stouchsburg, married Mary Potteiger; Aaron, a flour merchant in Reading, married (first) Hannah Manery and (second) Kate Heffer; Sarah married Frederick Graeff; Amanda died unmarried; Amos, a shoemaker and farmer, married Isabella Miller (1843-1885); Benjamin is mentioned below; Lizzie married Aaron Fox, a butcher at Sinking Spring; Anna married Reuben Beecher, formerly at Wernersville.
Benjamin Yocom, son of George, was born on the Yocom homestead Nov. 7, 1836, and was reared upon the farm, working for his parents until after he was twenty-one years of age. He then began farming on his father's farm in Lower Heidelberg township, where he lived six years, after which he moved to the old Daniel Dechert farm, where he lived nineteen years. At the end of that time he bought a tract of eighty-one acres in lower Heidelberg. This was an exceptionally fertile tract, with fine water and good substantial buildings, and was in every way a comfortable and commodious place, where Mr. Yocom made his home for sixteen years. In the spring of 1907 he came to Sinking Spring, where he now lives retired, making his home with his son-in-law Charles E. Potteiger.
In politics Mr. Yocom is a stanch Republican. He and his family are Lutheran members of St. John's Church, in which he has served as deacon and elder. On Oct. 7, 1858, he wedded Catharine Huyett, born Dec. 16, 1838, daughter of Jacob and Magdalena (Hill) Huyett. To this union have been born four children, namely: Benjamin F. born May 2, 1860, married Alice Bieber, and is a farmer in Jefferson township; Mary M., born Oct. 12, 1865, married August Scheetz, of Denver, Pa.; Kate, born Dec. 31, 1868, married Charles E. Potteiger, a farmer and cattle dealer at Sinking Spring; and George W., born Aug. 17, 1871, married Katie Brown, and is farming the old home farm.
