  • Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
    RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo.

  • Excavations at Craigievar Castle, Aberdeenshire Moira K Greig* with Contributions by Colvin Greig, Bill Lindsay, Stewart Thain & Gordon Williamson
    Proc Antiqc So Scot,(1993)3 12 , 381-93, fiche 2:B1-C4 Excavations at Craigievar Castle, Aberdeenshire Moira K Greig* with contributions by Colvin Greig, Bill Lindsay, Stewart Thain & Gordon Williamson ABSTRACT In the summer of 1990 the National Trust for Scotland funded an excavation to increase their knowledge of Craigievar Castle. This excavation revealed the remains of the east wall and part of the south wall of the original barmkin, along with two contemporary stone drains and a few post-holes. The excavation also recovered coins, pottery and glass. INTRODUCTION Aberdeenshire, now part of Grampian Region, is well known for its great castles. Of the later castles, built in the 17th century, many carried on the tradition of building a contiguous courtyard, or barmkin, although the defensive need for its surrounding wall was rarely required by that time. Today most of these castles have lost their barmkins or have only fragmentary remains, and little is known about their design (for the Lowlands, see Good & Tabraham 1988). However t Craigievaa , r Castlee paristh f n Leochel-Cushnii o h, J (N e 56670748), there exist almosn sa t complete stretc barmkif ho n wall. No contemporary records are known to exist that describe the interior of the courtyard t Craigievara , althoug assumn ca e ehon that there were stable byresd san brewerya , smithya , , and other necessary buildings. There are, however, within the castle, two 18th-century plans which, though differing in some of the structural details that they depict, do show definitive evidence of a barmkin wall enclosing a courtyard with internal buildings.

  • Thomas Carlyle and Juniper Green
    www.junipergreen300.com Thomas Carlyle and Juniper Green Thomas Carlyle by Walter Greaves about 1879. Thomas Carlyle, 1795 - 1881. Historian and essayist A giant of nineteenth-century thought, Thomas Carlyle was the son of a stone- mason and was born in Ecclefechan, Dumfriesshire. After graduating from Edinburgh University, he began to produce the articles, translations, essays and histories which were to make him world-famous. Carlyle and his gifted wife Jane lived in London, and their home in Cheyne Walk, Chelsea, became a place of pilgrimage for intellectuals from all over Europe. Greaves was a neighbour and made the studies for this portrait while Carlyle was sitting for James McNeil Whistler. National Portrait Gallery of Scotland. There has long been a tradition in Juniper Green that Thomas Carlyle, that eminent Victorian, spent some time in the village not long after his marriage to Jane Welsh. Thomas Carlyle was born on the 4th December, 1795, at Ecclefechan, Dumfriesshire the second son of James Carlyle, and the eldest child of his second marriage. Thomas and Jane Carlyle married on October 17th, 1826 at Templand, Thornhill, in Dumfriesshire and moved to Comely Page 1 Bank, Edinburgh, their first home, on the same day. It follows that any sojourn by Carlyle in Juniper Green must have been in the late 1820s. The earliest mention of this tradition so far found is in ‘Old and New Edinburgh’ by James Grant Vol. III Chapter XXXVIII p. 323 where it states: “Near Woodhall in the parish of Colinton, is the little modern village of Juniper Green, chiefly celebrated as being the temporary residence of Thomas Carlyle some time after his marriage at Comely Bank, Stockbridge where, as he tells us in his “Reminiscences” (edited by Mr Froude), “his first experience in the difficult task of housekeeping began”.

  • Briefing on Results of 2020 Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation
    BRIEFING ON RESULTS OF 2020 SCOTTISH INDEX OF MULTIPLE DEPRIVATION The SIMD2020 has just been published – the 6th edition to date. It is important to note that looking at changes in rankings over time must be treated with caution. An area’s ranking may ’improve’ because things have got worse in other areas and not necessarily due to improvements in the area itself – it could even have got worse but not by as much as has happened in other areas. Similarly, an area’s ranking may get worse not because its actual situation has worsened - it may even have improved - but that the situation in other areas has improved by more. The results indicate a slight ‘drift’ of areas of South Lanarkshire to lower levels of relative deprivation. They also suggest that relative to Scotland Income deprivation has overtaken Employment deprivation in South Lanarkshire – for the first time the relative rate is higher for Income than Employment. The domains where South Lanarkshire has the greatest number of datazones amongst the 20% Most Deprived are for Health and for Income Deprivation – nearly a quarter of South Lanarkshire areas are in both however, the largest number in the 5% Most Deprived are for Education. This has generally been the case in previous iterations of the SIMD. A) In the SIMD2020, of South Lanarkshire’s 431 datazones, a total of 88 or 20.4% of South Lanarkshire’s datazones were amongst the 20% Most Deprived in Scotland – a net fall of 1 from the SIMD2016. South Lanarkshire accounted for a greater proportion of Scottish datazones in the 20% Most Deprived than its share of all datazones – 6.31% compared to 6.18%.

  • THE PINNING STONES Culture and Community in Aberdeenshire
    THE PINNING STONES Culture and community in Aberdeenshire When traditional rubble stone masonry walls were originally constructed it was common practice to use a variety of small stones, called pinnings, to make the larger stones secure in the wall. This gave rubble walls distinctively varied appearances across the country depend- ing upon what local practices and materials were used.

    ; Hand-Book HAMILTON, BOTHWELL, BLANTYRE, UDDINGSTON W I rP H A DIE EJ C T O R Y. ILLUSTRATED BY SIX STEEL ENGRAVINGS AND A MAP. AMUS MACPHERSON, " Editor of the People's Centenary Edition of Burns. | until ton PRINTED AT THE "ADVERTISER" OFFICE, BY WM. NAISMITH. 1862.

As a guarantee for what I state, I pledge myself that every piece, before being taken into stock, is subjected to a severe chemical test, which in ten seconds sets the matter at rest.
