BIBLIOGRAPHY 328 BIOGRAPHY 330 H i ABSTRACT The purpose of this study has been to make an analy­ sis of the phonetic and lexical features of the speech of the Nanticoke Indians of Indian River Hundred, Sussex County, Delaware* The media of investigation have been (1) the 19?1 edition of The Work Sheets for the Linguistic Atlas of the U»S«A. and Canada and Associated Projects: (2) the unpub­ lished phonetic transcription of the speech of three Sussex County white informants recorded by Guy S. Lowman, Jr*, for Linguistic Atlas of the United States and Canada: and (3) A Word Geography of the Eastern States by Hans Kurach, University of Michigan Press, 19^9• Six informants representative of local speech were selected* three Nanticoke Indians, one mixed-blood "Moor," and two Negroes* Three workbooks transcribed by Dr* Lowman were made available by Dr* Hans Kurath* The six informants selected by the writer were inter­ viewed. Responses were phonetically transcribed in symbols of the International Phonetic Alphabet« Prom the nine workbooks a tabulation of words listed according to phonemes was made* Nanticoke pronunciation was then compared with Negro and white pronunciation* iv Nanticoke vocabulary was compared with white vocabulary as shown by the lexical evidence of the Linguistic Atlas, Summary of conclusions? Nanticoke pronunciation is, in almost all phonetic respects, like Negro pronunciation. The chief differences between Nanticoke and Negro pronunciation and that of the whites are the following| 1, The extravagant use of the off-glide [a] in the drawled pronunciation of the whites, 2, The lengthening of [i] and [u] to an extreme degree in the pronunciation of the whites, 3, The use of [e*i], [se*u], ], feu] and [oi] for [ei], [au], [ai], [ouj, ana [oi], respec­ tively, in the speech of the whites. With the exception of the frequent substitution of [ai] for [oi], as in spoil [spail], the diphthongs are usually standard in the speech of Negroes and Nanticokes, The sporadic use of [a ] by Nanticokes and Negroes, ?» The extremely dark [1] after vowels in the speech of the whites; its frequent dis­ appearance as in hel p myself [hs^p m0se°f]. Pronunciations occurring in all three groups which are most likely to strike the ear of an "outsider" are? 1, The substitution of [o] or [ o] for [a] pre­ ceding [r] in barn, car* garden, yard, 2, The substitution of [a] for [o] in cornt storm, 3, The very tense [i] approaching [i] in dishf fish, b 0 The substitution of [a], [o]f or [ o] for [ai] in lire, iroS, fire. v 5, The extremely versatile use of the central retroflex f sL which substitutes for [xr] in ear [J»]f for [ur] in your [js], for far! in fa,r Lfsji for [erl in Maryland j>3rt,an]f and for T®r] in Delaware [Uela*w^ ], In general it may be said that the vocabulary of the Nanticokes conforms to the lexical findings of the Limyuipti Atlas in its regional distribution. It is strongly local in character. Of the differences or variations which occur, few are unique with the Nanticokes, Careful inquiry dis­ covers that they are used by other simple folk in Sussex County, both white and Negro, vi INTRODUCTION The community of mixed-blood people living on the shores of Indian River in Sussex County, Delaware, consti­ tutes a folk group which for many years has Interested ethnologists, sociologists, and those Interested In local dialect ^ Frequent notes on words and expressions In the speech of this people have appeared in the pages of the Delaware Folklore Bulletin, published for the Delaware Folklore Society by the Institute of Delaware History and Culture of the University of Delaware, The speech of white Informants of the region has been studied and is Incorporated in the work of the Linguistic Atlas of the United States and Canada, but no systematic study has been done of the speech of the Negro and mixed-blood inhabitants of the same region. As long ago as 189?, In response to many inquiries concerning this people of endogaraous tendencies, who at that time called themselves Moors, Judge George P, Fisher pub­ lished a paper describing them as he knew them through having l long been a neighbor of theirs. Further reference concernin •^George P, Fisher, The So-Called Moors of Delaware, (Milford Herald, June 1?, 189?), Mimeographed copy in Wilmington Institute Free Library, Wilmington, Delaware, 1 the content of Judge Fisher*s article is made later on in this study. In 1915 the Heye Foundation published a study of the Nanticoke community written by Frank G. Speck, a professor in anthropology from the University of Pennsylvania who spent periods of time in the homes of these people from 1911*1915.2 Concerning the local dialect of the people, Dr. Speck made the following remark: Since, at the instance of Dr. Boas, studies of folk communities in various parts of America are beginning to be considered of importance to ethnology, I shall append a list of vernac­ ular terms in use among these people. There are, of course, many more idiomatic forms of speech than I could record. The dialect In general has so many local peculiarities that people from other parts of the Middle States often find it difficult at first to comprehend. The white people of Sussex County, moreover, do not have the same Idiosyncrasies, as I have taken pains to observe, although those born in the immediate neighborhood do,3 Dr. Speck does so record a list of about 60 such expressions as he thought peculiar to the region, including items such as k i w e r for to cover, to Hear u p for to harness, to chunk for to throw, and lust like as if, for .just as thoughJ* It is not within the province of this study to prove or disprove Dr. Speck*s statement that many of these 2Frank G.

Ibid., pp. *+0-1+3. words and expressions are unique to the community. It Is sufficiently interesting to observe that an "outsider” thought the local flavor of the dialect worthy of remark as long ago as kO years. A number of the words, it may be added, were recorded in phonetic characters recommended at that time for American ethnologists by the Committee on Phonetics of the American Anthropological Association* But not only to ethnologists has the study of the dialect of folk groups seemed of importance.

    Defining the Indigenous Cultural Landscape for The Nanjemoy and Mattawoman Creek Watersheds Prepared By: Scott M. Strickland Virginia R. Busby Julia A. King With Contributions From: Francis Gray • Diana Harley • Mervin Savoy • Piscataway Conoy Tribe of Maryland Mark Tayac • Piscataway Indian Nation Joan Watson • Piscataway Conoy Confederacy and Subtribes Rico Newman • Barry Wilson • Choptico Band of Piscataway Indians Hope Butler • Cedarville Band of Piscataway Indians Prepared For: The National Park Service Chesapeake Bay Annapolis, Maryland St. Mary’s College of Maryland St. Mary’s City, Maryland November 2015 ii EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The purpose of this project was to identify and represent the Indigenous Cultural Landscape for the Nanjemoy and Mattawoman creek watersheds on the north shore of the Potomac River in Charles and Prince George’s counties, Maryland. The project was undertaken as an initiative of the National Park Service Chesapeake Bay office, which supports and manages the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail. One of the goals of the Captain John Smith Trail is to interpret Native life in the Middle Atlantic in the early years of colonization by Europeans. The Indigenous Cultural Landscape (ICL) concept, developed as an important tool for identifying Native landscapes, has been incorporated into the Smith Trail’s Comprehensive Management Plan in an effort to identify Native communities along the trail as they existed in the early17th century and as they exist today. Identifying ICLs along the Smith Trail serves land and cultural conservation, education, historic preservation, and economic development goals. Identifying ICLs empowers descendant indigenous communities to participate fully in achieving these goals.

  • Bladensburg Prehistoric Background
    Environmental Background and Native American Context for Bladensburg and the Anacostia River Carol A. Ebright (April 2011) Environmental Setting Bladensburg lies along the east bank of the Anacostia River at the confluence of the Northeast Branch and Northwest Branch of this stream. Formerly known as the East Branch of the Potomac River, the Anacostia River is the northernmost tidal tributary of the Potomac River. The Anacostia River has incised a pronounced valley into the Glen Burnie Rolling Uplands, within the embayed section of the Western Shore Coastal Plain physiographic province (Reger and Cleaves 2008). Quaternary and Tertiary stream terraces, and adjoining uplands provided well drained living surfaces for humans during prehistoric and historic times. The uplands rise as much as 300 feet above the water. The Anacostia River drainage system flows southwestward, roughly parallel to the Fall Line, entering the Potomac River on the east side of Washington, within the District of Columbia boundaries (Figure 1). Thin Coastal Plain strata meet the Piedmont bedrock at the Fall Line, approximately at Rock Creek in the District of Columbia, but thicken to more than 1,000 feet on the east side of the Anacostia River (Froelich and Hack 1975). Terraces of Quaternary age are well-developed in the Bladensburg vicinity (Glaser 2003), occurring under Kenilworth Avenue and Baltimore Avenue. The main stem of the Anacostia River lies in the Coastal Plain, but its Northwest Branch headwaters penetrate the inter-fingered boundary of the Piedmont province, and provided ready access to the lithic resources of the heavily metamorphosed interior foothills to the west.

  • Defining the Nanticoke Indigenous Cultural Landscape
    Indigenous Cultural Landscapes Study for the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail: Nanticoke River Watershed December 2013 Kristin M. Sullivan, M.A.A. - Co-Principal Investigator Erve Chambers, Ph.D. - Principal Investigator Ennis Barbery, M.A.A. - Research Assistant Prepared under cooperative agreement with The University of Maryland College Park, MD and The National Park Service Chesapeake Bay Annapolis, MD EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The Nanticoke River watershed indigenous cultural landscape study area is home to well over 100 sites, landscapes, and waterways meaningful to the history and present-day lives of the Nanticoke people. This report provides background and evidence for the inclusion of many of these locations within a high-probability indigenous cultural landscape boundary—a focus area provided to the National Park Service Chesapeake Bay and the Captain John Smith Chesapeake National Historic Trail Advisory Council for the purposes of future conservation and interpretation as an indigenous cultural landscape, and to satisfy the Identification and Mapping portion of the Chesapeake Watershed Cooperative Ecosystems Studies Unit Cooperative Agreement between the National Park Service and the University of Maryland, College Park. Herein we define indigenous cultural landscapes as areas that reflect “the contexts of the American Indian peoples in the Nanticoke River area and their interaction with the landscape.” The identification of indigenous cultural landscapes “ includes both cultural and natural resources and the wildlife therein associated with historic lifestyle and settlement patterns and exhibiting the cultural or esthetic values of American Indian peoples,” which fall under the purview of the National Park Service and its partner organizations for the purposes of conservation and development of recreation and interpretation (National Park Service 2010:4.22).
