  • Regimental History
    25 Second Regiment New Hampshire Volunteer Infantry. (THREE YEARS.) By Hon. MARTIN A. HAYNES, late Private Second Regiment New Hampshire Volunteer Infantry and Historian of Reginnent. LARGE proportion of the original members of the Second Regiment were enlisted for three A months' service under President Lincoln's first call ; many of them among the earliest recruits in April, 1861. But early in May, while the regiment was still in camp at Portsmouth, orders were received from the War Department to send no more three months' troops. Most of the men thereupon enlisted for three years, this second muster by companies dating from Jun^ i to 8. The regiment left Portsmouth June 20, receiving at Boston on the same day, and at New York on the 21st, tremendous ovations from the Sons of New Hampshire and the local authorities. The regiment arrived in Washington on the afternoon of the 23d, and was brigaded with the First and Second Rhode Island and the Seventy-first New York, the brigade commander being Col. Ambrose E. Burnside. This constituted the Second Brigade of Hunter's division, and opened the fight at the first Bull Run battle, July 21. Colonel Marston was severely wounded here, and the regiment's loss was reported as 7 killed, 56 wounded, 46 missing. Early in August the regiment went into camp at Bladens- burg, Md., being brigaded with the Fii-st and Eleventh Massachusetts and Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania, under command of Brig. Gen. Joseph Hooker. During the winter of '61-2 the brigade camped at Budd's Ferry, Md., constituting the First Brigade of Hooker's division, which had been placed there as a corps of observation over the rebel blockading batteries extending several miles along the Virginia side of the Potomac.

    U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service Connecticut River Coordinator’s Office Adult River Herring Population Assessment Survey Protocols for the Connecticut River Basin December 2014 Goal Obtain fishery independent population data for blueback and alewife and evaluate population status and trends. Objectives: 1) Collect adult alewife and blueback from target sample areas for laboratory processing, extraction of otoliths and scale samples; 2) Target of 50 fish total sample (combined species) for each sample date; 3) Sample between two to three target areas weekly from early April through late June; 4) Use standardized gear and effort to conduct surveys, principally boat electrofishing; 5) Complete otolith age determination – following MA Division of Marine Fisheries Aging Protocols; 6) Describe age structure data for both species, by sex, among areas, among years, and other combinations; and 7) Examine data for relative abundance, by area, over time (within/among years), and other combinations, and describe length and weight data by species, sex, area, over time, and in other combinations. Methods A Smith Root (SR18) electrofishing boat, with a 5,000 watt generator (5GPP model) and boat hull rigged as cathode, using two eight dropper anode arrays off bow booms, is the primary sampling platform. Boat electrofisher settings are dependent on encountered water conditions and subsequent fish responses, which may vary, but are generally set to fish at approximately 6 amps output, in either low to high range, generally fishing at 400-500 volts, in pulse DC mode. All boat party members are instructed on boat operations, boat features, safety, safety features, and will wear knee high rubber boots, pants (no shorts), polarized glasses as needed, and high voltage lineman gloves.

  • Chapter6 Environmental Inventory
    DRAFT Existing Conditions Report New Haven Hartford Springfield Commuter Rail Implementation Study Chapter 6 Environmental Inventory As noted in Chapter 5, while the environmental effects of implementing commuter rail would generally be expected to be fairly minimal, a cursory review of existing socio- economic and environmental conditions is being performed to ensure that there are no environmental “fatal flaws”, or “red flags” that would hinder implementation of commuter rail service. For the purposes of this inventory, secondary sources of information were reviewed and field work was generally not conducted. This chapter considers resources in the natural environment. 6.1 Surface Water Resources Numerous watercourses intersect the rail study corridor from New Haven, Connecticut to Springfield, Massachusetts. Any impacts on surface waters in Connecticut are regulated by the Connecticut Department of Environmental Protection’s (CT DEP) Inland Waters Resources Division (for non-navigable inland wetlands) and Office of Long Island Sound Programs (for tidal and navigable wetlands), and by the US Army Corps of Engineers Section 404 process. If this study moves forward past the feasibility stage, all necessary permits will be obtained through the agencies cited above.. Major watercourses are listed below by town and are briefly described in terms of their location. (There may be other crossings of unnamed streams that would need to be assessed if the study moves forward). This information was obtained from the United States Geological Service (USGS) Quadrangle Maps that comprise the project study area. Locations of water crossings were not field verified for this planning level study, thus specific characteristics of each crossing are not available.

  • Chapter5 Socio-Economic Inventory
    DRAFT Existing Conditions Report New Haven Hartford Springfield Commuter Rail Implementation Study Chapter 5 Socio-Economic Inventory Under the National Environmental Policy Act, (NEPA), if a federally-funded action like the New Haven – Hartford – Springfield Commuter Rail service is ultimately determined to be feasible, it may be necessary to study the environmental and social impacts associated with such a project with additional environmental documentation. Most environmental impacts would be limited to the existing railroad bed, new passenger station buildings and parking areas. The environmental effects of this project would therefore generally be expected to be fairly minimal. While a detailed evaluation of environmental and socioeconomic impacts are not warranted at this preliminary feasibility stage of analysis, a sensitivity review of existing socio-economic and environmental conditions has been performed. The reason for this effort is to ensure proper NEPA compliance can be achieved in subsequent phases, if the project is pursued beyond the feasibility effort. This chapter considers the socioeconomic conditions in the corridor. An inventory of the natural environment is found in Chapter 6. 5.1 Land Use, Zoning, and Planned Economic Development The study corridor for the land use evaluation covers the area roughly one-half mile on either side of the existing railroad line from its southern end in New Haven, Connecticut to its northern end in Springfield, Massachusetts. Land use data provides meaningful information when considering the potential location of new train stops. Stations located in areas with higher existing or planned residential land use or in areas with high concentrations of businesses can provide greater service than those located in low density or undeveloped areas.

  • Illegitimate Births in Gloucester, MA, 1855-1894
    ILLEGITIMATE BIRTHS IN GLOUCESTER, MA, 1855 – 1894 The term “illegitimacy” is derived from the Latin illegitimus, meaning “not in accordance with the law.” A child is considered illegitimate when it is conceived and born outside of the regulatory sanctions of marriage. In order to facilitate genealogical research the Gloucester, Massachusetts, City Archive department is in the process of building a series of data bases of the births, marriages, and deaths that took place in Gloucester in the last half of the 19th century. As we entered birth information into this data base we wondered what became of those children identified as ‘illegitimate.’ The following is a result of those ruminations. Please note that the figures provided are not conclusive, as during the period 1860 to 1875 the legal status of the child was only sporadically noted in the official records – an interesting fact in and of itself. Also, at the time of this survey, deaths were only available in an easily searchable format for the years between 1851 and 1873. Obtaining the figures from 1874 to 1894 would have consumed more time than was available to this researcher. Nonetheless, certain conclusions can still be drawn from the easily obtainable records. Illegitimate births accounted for less than 1% of the overall births in Gloucester during the thirty-nine years spanned by the survey, and were equally divided between the sexes (108 boys and 107 girls). This figure seems extraordinarily low compared, for instance, to the year 2000 when approximately 26% of all births in Massachusetts were recorded as illegitimate. However, one must take into account various social factors.
