There are seventeen lettered districts and within each district the markers are numbered. Occasionally a marker is retired from the system, creating a skip in numbers within a district. For about thirty years the retired letter-number combinations were reassigned as new markers were approved, but that is no longer the practice. Several skips in the numbering remain. About the Program ... In 1935 the North Carolina General Assembly authorized the establishment of the North Carolina Highway Historical Marker Program (Public Laws, Chapter 197). From that time forward, the program has been administered as a cooperative venture among state agencies. It is presently the joint responsibility of the Historical Research Office, Division of Historical Resources, Department of Cultural Resources, and the Traffic Engineering Branch, Division of Highways, Department of Transportation. The North Carolina Highway Historical Marker Program is one of the oldest such programs in continuous operation in the United States. Prior to 1935 the North Carolina Historical Commission, which had been established in 1903, and private organizations (such as the Daughters of the American Revolution) sponsored a small number of historical markers and plaques. The state program, modeled after one begun in Virginia in 1926, was an effort to standardize the practice of marking sites of statewide historical significance. The silver and black markers have become a familiar part of the state's landscape since the first one was put in place in Granville County on January 10, 1936. Over 1,600 state highway historical markers have been erected. At least one stands in every county. For young people, the markers may spark a curiosity that leads to further study of and appreciation for the historical development of the region. For visitors the signs may be their only exposure to the history of the Tar Heel State. For residents the presence of a state marker in their community can be a source of pride, a signal that an event of historical significance took place close to home. The Department of Cultural Resources and the Department of Transportation remain committed to the program as it moves toward its centennial. About this Edition ... The staff of the Historical Research Office decided in 2019 to publish the Guide to Highway Historical Markers electronically. Over the years, the ten editions have been popular references for the markers and state history. Keeping the guide current has always been a challenge. This version allows the program to present an accurate listing of markers to the public in a format that is both accessible and searchable. It will remain available and updated at the program website, https://www.ncmarkers.com. This electronic edition is based on the Tenth Edition, published in 2007, edited by Michael Hill. It was edited and prepared by Joseph Beatty with content and design guidance from Ansley Wegner and Sheilah Barrett Carroll. Southall Rose Jones and Chamberlain Silkenat compiled and formatted the first drafts. 5 6 ALAMANCE COUNTY G-30 G-2 HAWFIELD’S CHURCH BATTLE OF ALAMANCE Presbyterian, founded about 1755, three miles Militia under Governor William Tryon N.E.

    Ch 5 NC Legislature.Indd

    The State Legislature The General Assembly is the oldest governmental body in North Carolina. According to tradition, a “legislative assembly of free holders” met for the first time around 1666. No documentary proof, however, exists proving that this assembly actually met. Provisions for a representative assembly in Proprietary North Carolina can be traced to the Concessions and Agreements, adopted in 1665, which called for an unicameral body composed of the governor, his council and twelve delegates selected annually to sit as a legislature. This system of representation prevailed until 1670, when Albemarle County was divided into three precincts. Berkeley Precinct, Carteret Precinct and Shaftsbury Precinct were apparently each allowed five representatives. Around 1682, four new precincts were created from the original three as the colony’s population grew and the frontier moved westward. The new precincts were usually allotted two representatives, although some were granted more. Beginning with the Assembly of 1723, several of the larger, more important towns were allowed to elect their own representatives. Edenton was the first town granted this privilege, followed by Bath, New Bern, Wilmington, Brunswick, Halifax, Campbellton (Fayetteville), Salisbury, Hillsborough and Tarborough. Around 1735 Albemarle and Bath Counties were dissolved and the precincts became counties. The unicameral legislature continued until around 1697, when a bicameral form was adopted. The governor or chief executive at the time, and his council constituted the upper house. The lower house, the House of Burgesses, was composed of representatives elected from the colony’s various precincts. The lower house could adopt its own rules of procedure and elect its own speaker and other officers.

  • Pirates and Robbers: American Privateers on the St. Lawrence River

    Pirates and Robbers: American Privateers on the St. Lawrence River

    Pirates and Robbers: American Privateers on the St. Lawrence River An Operational History Gary M. Gibson Origin Although private armed vessels belonging to a nation, and often referred to as “privateers,” were a feature of European naval warfare for centuries, it was the adoption of the United States Constitution in 1789 that made them officially allowed during the War of 1812. Article I, Section 8 of the Constitution gives Congress the power to “grant letters of marque and reprisal.” Such letters designate a nation with which the United States is at war and allows owners of private vessels to arm those vessels and seek out and capture or destroy vessels at sea belonging to that enemy. An additional clause in the same section of the Constitution empowered Congress to “make rules concerning captures on land and water,” particularly the amount and distribution of prize money awarded to the captures made by those privateers. The War of 1812 saw a large number of private American merchant vessels, and even a few specially built as privateers (e.g. Prince de Neufchatel), receiving letters of marque and reprisal. Almost all of the letters were issued to vessels sailing from ports on the Atlantic although some were issued on the Gulf of Mexico at New Orleans.1 There are only three letters of marque and reprisal known to have been granted on Lake Champlain and three on Lake Ontario. It is only those on Lake Ontario, and their 2 operations, that are described here. On the Atlantic, all letters of marque and reprisal were issued by the United States Department of State.

"We want to tell you further, brethren, about the grace of God which has been evident in the churches of Macedonia; For in the midst of an ordeal of severe tribulation, their abundance of joy and their depth of poverty (together) have overflowed in a wealth of lavish generosity on their part. For, as I can bear witness, they gave according to their ability, yes, and beyond their ability; and they did it voluntarily, .... first they gave themselves to the Lord...."

    AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVENTORY OF ALAMANCE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA Alamance County Historic Properties Commission August, 2019 AN ARCHAEOLOGICAL INVENTORY OF ALAMANCE COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA A SPECIAL PROJECT OF THE ALAMANCE COUNTY HISTORIC PROPERTIES COMMISSION August 5, 2019 This inventory is an update of the Alamance County Archaeological Survey Project, published by the Research Laboratories of Anthropology, UNC-Chapel Hill in 1986 (McManus and Long 1986). The survey project collected information on 65 archaeological sites. A total of 177 archaeological sites had been recorded prior to the 1986 project making a total of 242 sites on file at the end of the survey work. Since that time, other archaeological sites have been added to the North Carolina site files at the Office of State Archaeology, Department of Natural and Cultural Resources in Raleigh. The updated inventory presented here includes 410 sites across the county and serves to make the information current. Most of the information in this document is from the original survey and site forms on file at the Office of State Archaeology and may not reflect the current conditions of some of the sites. This updated inventory was undertaken as a Special Project by members of the Alamance County Historic Properties Commission (HPC) and published in-house by the Alamance County Planning Department. The goals of this project are three-fold and include: 1) to make the archaeological and cultural heritage of the county more accessible to its citizens; 2) to serve as a planning tool for the Alamance County Planning Department and provide aid in preservation and conservation efforts by the county planners; and 3) to serve as a research tool for scholars studying the prehistory and history of Alamance County.

The essence of chic and a beautiful woman, Audrey Hepburn, brought a certain “magic” quality to the screen. Synonymous with oversized sunglasses and the little black dress, many are unaware of the hardships she endured while growing up in Nazi-occupied Holland. Starring in classic movies such as Sabrina, My Fair Lady, and of course, Breakfast at Tiffany’s, Audrey Hepburn brought effortless style and grace to the silver screen. Following the many Zoom training opportunities offered in the last two weeks of September, let’s put our training to the test! The Technology Team recommended we conduct the first zoom class without a live presenter so we can ensure that everything is working correctly to set us up for a successful semester. Below is the format of our first LIFE@ Elon class on Zoom – enjoy this documentary about the one and only Audrey Hepburn! Open Class On Tuesday mornings, you will receive an email with a link for the class. (If the presenter has a handout, we will attach it to the email.) Twenty minutes before the start of class, we will have the meeting open so you can click on the link to join. Kathryn Bennett, the Program Coordinator, will be there to greet members as they are logging on, and Katie Mars, the Technology Specialist, will be present, as well.
