Signed: __________________________________________________________ Wendy A. Bellion, Ph.D. Member of dissertation committee ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I was fortunate indeed to have landed at the University of Delaware in the History of American Civilization program for my doctoral studies. At UD I found a welcoming and broadly interdisciplinary scholarly community, crucial to the development of a material culture scholar. The opportunity to study at the Henry France du Pont Winterthur Museum was the perfect entrée into the material world of everyday life in America. My greatest debts are first to those who mentored me during my years at the University of Delaware. J. Ritchie Garrison was my first contact at the University, convinced me to come to Delaware to study, and quickly became my mentor. His prodigious knowledge and insights into the histories of landscapes and particularly of craft were deeply influential to my own work. (Although I still think Ritchie’s comments on my wooden candle box made in class under his supervision a bit unfair. His assessment began “Elise Ciregna + hand tools = recipe for disaster” and ended with the comment that “no personal injury lawsuits were filed as a result of this project.” I do acknowledge, however, that this experience made it abundantly clear that I was better suited to the study of stone craft than being an actual practitioner.) I could not have worked with anyone who better understands the realities and challenges urban craftsmen in early America faced, and who cares about them as iv much as I do. Ritchie pushed me in scholarly inquiry directions I had not conceived of, and for that I am deeply grateful. Kasey Grier was one of my earliest scholarly influences. Her book Culture and Comfort, based on her own dissertation at the University of Delaware, was my bible in my work in the 1990s as Projects Manager of the Conservation Center of the Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities, which had one of the very few upholstery conservation labs in the country. I spent many happy hours, weeks, even months thumbing through my copy of the original color edition of her book as the upholstery conservator and I sourced historically appropriate velvets, damasks, trims and passementerie for the nineteenth-century chairs, sofas, and ottomans that came into the lab. Although I had completed my coursework when Kasey first came back to Delaware, she was an obvious choice for my dissertation committee. I have very much appreciated her willingness to read through drafts of this work in progress. Her cheerful encouragement, keen scholarly insights, and humor have been invaluable throughout this process. Christine Heyrman was a mentor in the craft of writing, and writing history. It was Christine’s “piquantly named Baptist preacher” Loveless Savidge in her book Southern Cross: the Beginnings of the Bible Belt that first alerted me to the possibilities of humor, empathy and humanity in academic writing. Our conversations in class and privately about the craft of writing have stayed with me; I still maintain a commonplace book because of her suggestion. Christine’s fluid and graceful writing style is one of my most important influences, and a model I have kept front and center—though any infelicities of style, grammar and punctuation are, of v course, my own. I also wish to thank Wendy Bellion in the University of Delaware’s Art History department, who first connected with my dissertation project by agreeing to provide the faculty remarks at my DIPSOP (Dissertation in Progress and Occasional Papers) meeting, and who presented thoughtful and engaging commentary at that time, remarks that I have kept in mind. Although I was employed during most of the years I worked on this project, I was fortunate to receive financial support so that I could occasionally free myself to think, research, and write. In particular, a New England Regional Consortium grant early in the project allowed me to spend a significant amount of research time at a number of New England archives, including the Massachusetts Historical Society, the Boston Athenæum, the Baker Library at the Harvard Business School, the New England Historical Genealogical Society, the Rhode Island Historical Society Library, the Connecticut Historical Society and the Mystic Seaport Museum, Connecticut. I thank all of the staff members of these various institutions, who were endlessly generous with their time and enthusiastic about my project. I am also grateful to the Henry France du Pont Winterthur Museum for a short-term fellowship, which allowed me a blissful month free of all professional distractions to focus on all things marble, and to make significant writing progress. Many thanks are due to the staff of the museum and library, including curator Linda Eaton, Greg Landrey, Rich McKinstry, Cate Cooney, Emily Guthrie, and Laura Parrish. I wish to particularly thank Jeanne Solensky of the Josephs Downs Collection of Ephemera in the Winterthur Library, for her extraordinary and on-going efforts to connect me to sources and other scholars, vi even in a relatively rarefied area of research. Ms. Solensky was also instrumental in allowing me to curate a short-term exhibit at the Downs Collection entitled the “The Lustrous Stone” and featuring Downs Collection items. During the course of this project I was able to present my work at various conferences, including the inaugural James and Shirley Draper conference at the University of Connecticut; the Organization of American Historians’ annual conference in Minneapolis, Minnesota; the WAPACC conference in Woodcliff, New Jersey; and various iterations of the annual American Culture Association (ACA) and Mid-Atlantic Popular & American Culture Association (MAPACA) conferences in Philadelphia, Boston, and Wilmington, Delaware. Travel funding assistance from the University of Delaware was also enormously beneficial as I had the opportunity to present my work at conferences in Bath, England, Glasgow, Scotland, and Florence, Italy, and to meet scholars from many different countries doing interesting and provocative work. A scholar is drifting without oars at sea if she doesn’t have friends and colleagues who will support and encourage her in the right direction, but who will also challenge her arguments, call her on her mistakes and false assumptions, and comment on her ideas and writing. I am lucky to have such a wonderful corps of such friends and colleagues. Classmates at the University of Delaware included Dan Claro, Hillary Murtha, Michelle Mormul, Laura Johnson, and many others. Our “Dissie Chicks” group of dissertating women included Pat Keller, Frances Davey, Zara Anishanslin, Bryn Varley Hollenbeck, Rebecca Sheppard, Heather Boyd, and Amy Henderson. vii “Head chick” Pat Keller transcribed an entire inventory of a stonecutter’s tools at an archive, just because she thought I might find

  • Graveyard Geology
    GRAVEYARD GEOLOGY A Guide to Rocks in Graveyards and Cemeteries Wendy Kirk Department of Earth Sciences, David Cook University College London & Aldersbrook Geological Society London Geodiversity Partnership Introduction Walk around graveyards and cemeteries (in this case, those of London and the southeast of England) and it becomes apparent that, prior to the latter part of the twentieth century, many memorials were made out of just a few different rock types. These were chosen for reasons of appearance, cost, workability and ease of transport to the cemetery, as well as for resistance to weathering and dependence on local regulations. In the last few decades, a range of different, interesting and beautiful stones have appeared, many brought in from abroad, enhancing the diversity of materials used. The intention of this guide is to help a non-specialist identify the main rock types, to recognize some of the varieties and to know where some of these might have come from. Graveyards are a wonderful resource for those with an interest in geology at any level, wildlife, plants, history or sculpture. We hope you gain as much pleasure as we have done. First things first A useful place to start is to be able to distinguish between igneous, sedimentary and metamorphic rocks. Igneous rocks form from melted rock called magma. If this erupts at the surface, it is called lava. It cools and crystallizes quickly, so the grains are too small to see even with a hand lens (magnifying glass). If the lava erupt explosively to form a spray, the cooled fragments are known as volcanic ash.

  • Cemetery Preservation QUICK TIPS
    Georgia’s State Historic Preservation Office IIIIIICCCeeemmmeeettteeerrryyy PPPrrreeessseeerrrvvvaaatttiiiooonnn QQQUUUIIICCCKKK TTTIIIPPPSSSIIIIII Common Monument and Gravemarker Materials Below are brief descriptions of the most common stones and monument material types found in Georgia. Stones vary in hardness and therefore in their ability to survive satisfactorily outdoors in cemeteries, as well as their ability to withstand cleaning or restoration. The Mohs Scale of Mineral Hardness, created in 1812, establishes talc as the softest mineral material and diamond as the hardest. There is no need to determine the exact hardness of a stone you are working on. However, seeing how some common cemetery materials rank on the Mohs Scale can guide your choice of the best methods for working with them: Talc (see "soapstone" below) Marble Sandstone Granite Diamond 1 3-4 5 7-8 10 If identifying the type of stone is difficult, but will be important to a cemetery preservation project, referring to a stone/mineral field guide is recommended, or consulting with a geologist or other expert. Marker Material Descriptions MARBLE Marble has been used for a great many markers in historic cemeteries in Georgia. The state's marble industry dates back to the late 1830s, when outcroppings of surface marble were discovered in north Georgia. Quarrying began, and markers were carved and sold throughout the area. The Georgia marble industry still thrives today. Several different types of stone that can be polished are called marble. A true marble, though, is a metamorphic rock made up of calcium carbonate, traces of silica and iron oxides; it is rather soft and easily carved.
