The Twelfth Decade
1911-1920 The Twelfth Decade Overview The twelfth decade was one of several significant developments and events. After 82 years as a Village, Batavia became a City. Batavia came to have its first City Hall. The police department for the first time had its own building. Also for the first time, there were full-time paid firemen. The community finally had a sewer system and sewage treatment plant. The municipal water system was upgraded and a water filtration plant added. And, as was the case with other cities across the Country, Batavia felt the impact of World War I. Batavia’s population continued to grow rapidly. The number of residents reached 13,541 in 1920 (“Genesee County Information,” Richmond Memorial Library, online, accessed 3 January 2014). This was an increase of 1,928 individuals since 1910. In the view of the author, this decade may be regarded as Batavia’s “golden age.” Main Street still had most of its mansions. A large number of the major manufacturing concerns that defined Batavia were in place. The housing in the City was still mainly single-family homes. Retail activity was almost entirely in a centralized “downtown.” A trolley ran the length of Main Street and the Tonawanda Creek was a major recreational attraction that drew crowds on summer weekends. 1: Infrastructure As indicated in the last chapter, work on constructing sewers began in December of 1909. The layout resulted in all of the sewage being conveyed to a central station at the Municipal Building at 3 West Main Street. As of July in 1911, the work on the sewers was well along. -

His parents were Ernest Akerman (a Gentleman) and Kathleen Louise Rachel (Ewen). He had elder brothers Harold Akerman (b1886) and Cecil Robert (b1888), a sister Muriel Kathleen (b1890), and younger brothers Arthur Sidford (b1899) and Leslie Herbert (b1903). The 1901 census has the parents (father a Bank Clerk) living at 4 Illcombe Terrace, Turks Rd., Twickenham with Ernest and Arthur. The other children were living with aunts and uncles. He was at Gordon’s from 1908 to 1911 and appears on the 3rd April 1911 census as a 17 year old a part time Gardener. His damaged Army Service Record survived. He enlisted in the Army Reserve with the 3rd Battalion "Queens" Royal West Surrey Regiment in on the 22nd May 1911with the Regimental number 10014.

He was 5ft 5ins (1.65m) tall and weighed 122lbs.(55Kg) his trade was given as "Musician" and in an infantry battalion he would most likely have been used as a stretcher bearer. -

Craig, Alfred M 1873-1900
Alfred M. Craig 1873-1900 © Illinois Supreme Court Historic Preservation Commission Image courtesy of the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library An Illinois native of Scotch-Irish descent, Alfred M. Craig was born in Paris, Edgar County, on January 15, 1831. His father, David Craig of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, had moved to Lexington, Kentucky, and married Minta Ramey, daughter of a friend of Daniel Boone and other frontiersmen. “Like thousands of the middle class in the southern States who were not slave holders and did not depend on the institution of slavery,” wrote a family biographer, the Craigs moved from Kentucky, north to Illinois.1 Shortly after the birth of son Alfred, the Craigs relocated to a Fulton County farm near Canton, in the Military Tract. A millwright, David Craig built several mills along Spoon River, providing flour and feed for the early settlers. Alfred attended to farm chores while also attaining a common school education. He later enrolled in an academy in Canton, and in the fall of 1848 entered Knox College in Galesburg. Graduating with honors in 1853, he began the study of law in Lewistown under prominent attorney William C. Goudy.2 Admitted to the bar in 1854, Craig became a partner in firm of Manning, Douglas & Craig, located in the Knox County seat of Knoxville. “By close application and determination he built up a large practice in a few years’ time, riding the circuit as was 2 customary in those days,” wrote a Knox County historian. “It was not unusual for him to make the trip on horseback and on reaching Spoon river he would have to swim that stream astride his mount.”3 In 1855, Craig succeeded Goudy as State’s Attorney for the circuit comprising Knox, Henry, Mercer, Warren, Henderson, and Fulton counties. -

29004_U01.qxd 2/6/06 3:54 PM Page 13 Chapter 1 American Variety and/or Foreign Features The Throes of Film Distribution Imagine that you are a young woman who has decided to join one of your store clerk or stenographer friends going to the movies after work in down- town Des Moines, Iowa, in the spring of 1913. On Sunday, May 4, you read the Des Moines News and know what programs will be playing in at least four moving picture theaters that next week.1 On Tuesday, for instance, what are your choices? At the Casino (just opened in December) is Pathé’s Weekly (a newsreel), Essanay’s The Crazy Prospector, and Vitagraph’s Cinders. At the Fam- ily, Bison-101’s two-reel The Indian’s Secret and Billy’s First Quarrel. At the Unique, Majestic’s two-reel Children of St. Anne and Her Sister’s Secret. The Colonial has a special feature (running all week), the five-reel Satan or “The Drama of Humanity . from Creation to the present time.”2 Which theater you and your friend choose could depend on several factors, but, as a fre- quent moviegoer, you could count on familiarity and the relative quality of the variety programs at three of these theaters, each changed daily and sup- plied by a different film service or distributor: the Casino (General Film), the Family (Universal), and the Unique (Mutual). You also could be attracted, however, by Satan’s promotion as a sensational historical epic or by its nov- elty as a special feature (from Europe, no less), since the only previous film of four reels or more to play in the city was Queen Elizabeth, with Sarah -
African Americans in Military Service: Civil War Through World War I
African Americans in Military Service Civil War Through World War I National cemeteries were created in the 1860s to honor those who serve in America’s armed forces, a mission that continues today. The NCA system and its memorial features have expanded over more than 150 years, and reflect the diversity of demographic groups who answered the call. At many locations segregation in life meant segregation in death; but the Army was insistent that white or black, U.S. veterans deserved burial in a national cemetery. The struggles and injustice endured by African-American service members in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries echoed the social and political climate of civilian life. African Americans served in all U.S. conflicts: but the years between the Civil War and the Korean War -- after desegregation was mandated in 1948 -- were the most contentious. The fight for racial equality is evidenced through the recognition of veteran activists, pilots, heroes, artists, journalists, and sadly, victims. Their inspirational stories helped advance American civil rights, and what follows are some accounts of African-American service from the Civil War through World War I, as reflected in VA national cemeteries. U.S. Colored Troops in the Civil War During the Civil War, 179,000 African Americans are estimated to have served as part of six units of U.S. Colored Troops (USCT), segregated into 175 regiments. These were the first organized units for black soldiers and these men, many formerly enslaved, enthusiastically volunteered to fight for the Union. As soldiers they fulfilled combat and labor functions. By the war’s end, black soldiers represented 10 percent of the Union Army and about 25 percent of the naval force.
