ACKNOWLEGEMENTS

To begin, would like to thank my thesis committee chairperson, Dr. Mark

Groover. When I walked into my first anthropology class nearly ten years ago, I could have never imagined the amount of influence the instructor would have on shaping my future. Without Dr. Groover‘s constant encouragement, trust, and constructive criticism, this research would not have been possible. He always had time to listen, and never stopped believing in me. He motivated me to do my absolute best, and I for that, I am forever in his debt.

I would also like thank my thesis committee members. Dr. Colleen Boyd is a wonderful person. Her ideas and suggestions were invaluable. Also, she agreed to continue to help with my thesis even while on sabbatical and not obligated to do so. This gesture showed a tremendous amount of selflessness, and speaks to the high level of character possessed by Dr. Boyd. This was highly motivating for me, because I so truly appreciated the commitment taken by Dr. Boyd to help me. In addition, I would like to thank Dr. Mark Hill for his kindness, patience, and expertise. Also, I am very appreciative of Dr. S. Homes Hogue, who volunteered to analyze the faunal remains pro bono during Spring Break. That act demonstrated extreme generosity. Thank you very much, Dr Hogue, for everything.

Also, I must give a special thanks to the field crew of the 2007 field school:

Kevin Cupka Head, Sue Cupka Head, Sarah Hunnicutt, Julie Koogler, and Cleo Lyons.

Likewise, I would like to thank the faculty and staff of the Historic Landmarks

Foundation of Indiana. Specifically, I would like to thank Karen Trent, former assistant administrative director at Huddleston House. In addition, I thank all of the people who helped me gather various historical documents. The staff at the Wayne County

Courthouse was extremely helpful and deserves thanks. Also, the volunteers at the

Wayne County Genealogical Society library were extremely helpful, interesting, and hospitable. They were always so nice.

However, I saved the best for last. My loving family remained patient, and never stopped believing in me. My wonderful wife Melissa helped me in every possible way; from offering ideas, to helping crunch numbers, to surrendering her computer for days at a time. I love you and thank you very much for all the support. To my son, Hunter, thank you for all your help and patience. He showed a tremendous amount of maturity in dealing with a house constantly cluttered with ubiquitous stacks of paperwork that resembled the leaning tower of Pisa. Throughout the entire process, they never lost faith or their temper. Thank you, I love you both.

To my dad, Eric, who taught me to always do my best, I appreciate all of your love and guidance. My father values education very highly, and has instilled this attitude onto me. To my mother, Alice, thank you for providing a refuge, away from the troubles of research and writing. Also, thank you for teaching me to always be myself, and for always being yourself around me.

CHAPTER 1

INTRODUCTION

Farming in Indiana has always been difficult. The fortunes of Indiana farmers are perhaps best characterized by an anonymous quote from a frontier Wayne County,

Indiana resident:

When the plower, who, sometimes was in his teens, endeavored to guide the

plow around a stump by pressing his unequal weight down, it would sometimes

strike a root before the horses could be stopped, and the young plow-boy found

himself tossed some distance off (Wayne County Genealogical Society).

In many ways this tale is a microcosm of Indiana farming throughout the past 200 years.

Fluctuating markets were responsible for unpredictable commodities prices from year to year. Farm families such as the Huddleston household benefited from favorable economic conditions some years, but also suffered during economic hardships in others.

Not unlike the young farm boy who was abruptly thrown from his plow, Hoosier farmers were often the victims of unforeseen troubles.

The Huddleston House farmstead is located in Wayne County, Indiana in the town of Mt. Auburn. Wayne County lies on the eastern border of the state adjacent to

Ohio. A farming tradition was established early in the history of Wayne County, and the

Huddleston family conformed to this trend. The Huddleston House farmstead was

xii

2 occupied and owned by four generations of the Huddleston family members between

1839 and 1934. Like most Hoosier farm families, some early Huddleston households benefited from favorable economic conditions while other later households suffered from weaker ones. Presently, the Huddleston House functions as a museum and regional office of the Historical Landmarks Foundation of Indiana. This means that the family no longer owns the property and was unsuccessful in retaining the family farm. Several factors were involved in the loss of the Huddleston farmstead by the family. Fluctuating global markets, results of westward expansion, variable household size, and individual entrepreneurial ambition were among these factors. The property abuts US 40, historically known as the Cumberland Road and/or the National Road. The completion of the National Road and subsequent migration westward was a significant catalyst to frontier settlement in the middle 19th century. Moreover, shifts in the frontier and breadbasket regions within the United States resulted in changes at the global and local level. Hoosier farm families like the Huddlestons had to adapt to changing times and conditions or risk failure.

Interestingly, on January 4, 1930, at the onset of one of the worst global economic catastrophes, the Great Depression, a Wayne County newspaper headline boasted:

―Agricultural Outlook Is Brightest Since 1920: Marketing Act and Granting of High

Tariff Protection Are Seen As Two Chief Factors Favoring Farmers During Ensuing

Year‖ (Richmond Palladium Item 1930:1). Ironically, in many ways this date marked the beginning of the end for the Huddleston family farm. On this same date, in the same newspaper, a short, five line obituary for Mrs. Charles Huddleston appeared. Nine days later, Charles Huddleston‘s own obituary appeared after he took his own life due to

3 despondency over his wife‘s death. Less than five years later the house and farmstead were sold out of the family. Although the headline bragged of a bright outlook, this was not the case for the Huddleston family farmstead. Therefore, much like the young farm boy who was thrown from the plow, a series of interrelated factors culminated in the disconnection of the Huddleston family from their ancestral farmstead.

Examining the myriad of changes that occurred during the near century long

Huddleston occupation at the farmstead guided initial inquiry. Changing regional relationships resulted from the settling of the frontier. Moreover, production of surplus agricultural commodities for sale to market demonstrated a clear articulation to larger international financial markets. Therefore, the Huddleston family‘s fortune was largely dependent on the amount they could produce, and the price at which they could sell that product. Similarly, fluctuations in commodities prices, such as grains, were unpredictable from year to year. The price of grains fluctuated greatly throughout the 94 year Huddleston occupation. Therefore, investigating each Huddleston household through the line of succession was important in this research. Every story has a beginning, middle, and end. Consequently, a diachronic perspective was taken to study the Huddleston farmstead and their community.

Three archaeological investigations have been conducted on the Huddleston property (Sasser 1977; Zoll 2002; Groover 2007b). Trenching and unit excavation in

1977 resulted in the discovery of several features. Phase I investigations consisting of shovel test pits defined the archaeological recovery of the 2002 study. In the 2007 survey, ten test units were excavated following surface collection sampling. The

5 excavation resulted in the discovery of a foundation in the rear (south) house lot.

Likewise, material culture was recovered through archaeological excavation. Ceramics, building materials, and faunal remains constitute the bulk of the artifact assemblage.

Due to the unique nature of the Huddleston House, several different significant research topics are explored in this thesis. Research questions addressed in this study are:

1. How and to what extent was the Huddleston household articulated to the

world economy?

2. What were the past agricultural activities engaged in by the Huddleston

household?

3. Did the Huddleston household comply with or deviate from local, regional,

and national trends regarding wealth, production, and material conditions?

4. How did the house lot change over time?

5. Does archaeological evidence at Huddleston House reflect documented

household succession events?

To better understand the people we study, historical archaeologists rely on the use of both archaeologically excavated material culture and the documentary record to reconstruct the past (Deagan 1982; Leone and Potter 1988; Little 1992; Orser 1996).

Primary historical documents can be used build historical context and identify recorded events. This information provides the basic timeline from which archaeological investigation and interpretation can ensue. An extensive reliance on both primary historical documents and archaeological evidence provides rich contextual understanding to the site. Because of the protracted duration of the Huddleston family‘s occupation on the property, a diachronic approach was taken to interpret the conditions of the past

7 inhabitants. This approach, which combines multiple scales of temporal and spatial analysis allows for examination of the entire sequence of household succession. The specifics of this research design are presented in Chapter 2. Furthermore, the analytical methods which link interpretive theory to specific sites are addressed in Chapter 2. The methods used here are particularly well suited for farmstead sites, and provide evidence which directly addresses specific research questions. In addition, this research design is extremely replicable, making the comparative potential advantageous and beneficial.

A brief regional culture history of the local area and a review of relevant literature are presented in Chapter 3. The culture history provided in Chapter 3 is temporally biased. Indigenous culture prehistory is not considered. Chapter 4 summarizes the known patralineal genealogy of the Huddleston family. Also discussed in Chapter 4 are the property history and the succession of household ownership.

In Chapter 5 the interpretive context shifts from household level analysis to focus on regional and national trends. Farm households, such as the Huddlestons, were significantly affected by fluctuations in local and global commodities markets.

Moreover, participation in aggressive surplus agriculture production links the Huddleston family to the global economic system. This reveals a great deal about the economic and subsistence strategy in which the household was engaged. In addition, it provides context to help predict the types of activities household members were engaged in on a daily basis. Census figures are then used to locate major areas of surplus agricultural production and identify core/periphery relationships.

In Chapter 6 focus shifts to the community level. Data contained in United States

Agricultural Census enumeration forms are used to construct a comparative database of

8 proximally located contemporaneous property owners. Quantities of production commodities and wealth values are tabulated and compared to the Huddleston household through time.

Chapter 7 provides detailed description, classification, analysis, comparison, and commentary about the archaeological investigations at the Huddleston House. Topics pertaining to landscape and architectural change through time are discussed. In addition, time sequence analysis of the artifacts is presented.

In Chapter 8, all of the evidence is considered, and a holistic interpretation is presented. Patterns in the archaeological record which can be linked to documented household succession events may reflect and even predict changes on the landscape and in archaeological assemblages.

Chapter 9 readdresses research questions presented in this thesis and provides future recommendations and perceived contributions of this research. The role of the

Huddleston House as a museum allows for protection of cultural resources, meaning extensive excavation in the near future is neither urgent nor warranted. However, the research model used in this analysis could be used in the future on other Midwest farmstead sites.

In conclusion, this thesis examines material conditions at the Huddleston farm.

Documentary and archaeological evidence are combined to gain optimal context. A diachronic perspective is taken in order to recognize trends. Changes in households, landscapes, production quantities, and regional relationships are of extreme interest.

Therefore, reconstructing the events of the Huddleston occupation is the goal of this thesis.

CHAPTER 2 THEORY AND METHODS

In his important study, An Archaeological Study of Rural Capitalism and Material

Life: The Gibbs Farmstead in Southern Appalachia, 1790-1920, Mark Groover

(2003:20-21) argues that diachronically based analysis provides optimal insight into multigenerationally occupied farmsteads. The Huddleston farmstead, occupied by four successive generations, provided the perfect opportunity to implement a similar research design. This research design, adapted from Groover, reconstructs temporal process and links households to local, regional, national and global phenomenon. In addition, artifact assemblages are linked to specific households within the line of succession (Groover

2003:17,19,21). This theory involves interpretation based upon multiple scales of analysis. Charles Orser (1996:186-187) is a major advocate of this type of analysis. He states that, ―research shows that the best analyses are multiscalar…The dialectical approach is mutualist in that it acknowledges the significance of netlike connections across space and time.‖ In doing this, optimal context into the life of the people at the site can be gained. By using multiple temporal and spatial scales to interpret the evidence, greater understanding and insight is obtained. As previously stated, another basic characteristic of these methods, which is true of historical archaeology in general, is the use of the archaeological and documentary record.

10

Therefore, specific analytical methods demonstrating how the Huddleston family interacted with the external world, landscape, and financial markets are necessary. To accomplish this objective, a hybrid theory adapted from the Annales school of French social history and inspired by world systems theory was created (Groover 2001, 2003,

2008). This approach has many advantages. First, the researcher is able to analyze the site from a diachronic level, or through time perspective. Also, analyzing the site from multiple time intervals is possible. This can allow for recognition of patterns which can be undetectable if analyzed through a singular (or incorrect) time interval. In addition, the extent to which the site‘s inhabitants articulate to larger global events and how this interaction resulted in the deposition of the archaeological remains is the main focus of this research design. By understanding this interaction greater contextual interpretations of relative wealth and standard of living is accomplished.

The Annales school was developed by French social historians, most notably,

Ferdinand Braudel (1971, 1974, 1980, 1981). Several archaeologists have found value in using this system of analysis (Stoianovich 1976; Lamberg-Karlovsky 1985; Bintliff 1991;

Knapp 1992: 9-16; Groover 2001, 2003, 2008). The Annales school views time in several different realms, all working simultaneously. Time can be divided into three main scales. The first temporal scale is the evenements, or short-term events. Time periods included within this evenements level include small particular events, such as a battle. Short-term level time periods usually consist of a decade or less. The second analytical level of temporal division is the conuoncture , or medium level time. Medium level time intervals generally range from periods of one generation, to a few centuries. It is within the realm of medium-scale time that economic trends and regional cultural

11 history periods can be analyzed. The final temporal scale is referred to as the longue duree. The longue duree is concerned with large amounts of time. Time periods ranging from several centuries to those best described in geologic time can be addressed at this scale. Issues suited for ―long-term history‖ include human migration and human evolution (Bintliff 1991; Dark 1995; Groover, 2004). Therefore, this thesis considers the

Huddleston family through both evenements, short range, and conuoncture, medium range time scales. The Huddleston family lacks adequate time depth for a longue duree analysis.

The Huddleston site enables the fusion of theory in an attempt to provide the most complete description of the family. Charles Orser and Brian Fagan (1995:18) place historical archaeology‘s goal of seeking to ―understand the global nature of modern life‖ as the primary objective of archaeology. Attempting to understand that global nature,

Mark Leone and Parker Potter (1988:19) state that:

Whether or not historical archaeology is to be an archaeology of the emergence

and development of capitalism has been settled in the affirmative. There has

never been a choice, even those who were indifferent or hostile to the issue… In

other words we can either know our social context, which is the context of

advanced industrial capitalism, or be prisoners of it (Leone and Potter in Little

1994:52).

However, interpreting the 19th century through an entirely capitalist perspective can be problematic. Orser (1996:72) notes, ―the abundant complexities of advocating a strictly capitalist interpretation.‖ Among which, he cautions against the ideologically

12 charged nature of the subject (1996:72). However, one consensus opinion can be reached regarding capitalism and the modern world. Most all agree that capitalism had two major forms throughout the last five centuries. The first was the merchant phase, and the second, the industrial phase. During merchant capitalism, European powers colonized the known world in effort to gain new resources and capital. Industrial capitalism, which came later, resulted in the formation of large factories and industry. One major theme that is pervasive in capitalist theory is a division of labor between proletariat workers and the bourgeoisie entrepreneurs (So 1990:178). However, Wallerstein (1987:318) has argued that this model of capitalism has actually been a minority situation in the modern world. For example, a forced labor situation has been a more common situation when considering the entire world over the past 500 years (So 1990:178). Wallerstein claimed that understanding the development of global capitalism could not be fully accomplished by concentrating exclusively with Europe (Gosden 2004:11-12). Wallerstein argued that the proletariat/ bourgeoisie relationship should not be reflected onto the whole world throughout the entire 500 years. To reconcile this observation, Wallerstein chooses to look beyond the capitalist model to introduce the notion of the historical system. This term is used to describe the totality of social, economic, and political trajectory in the formation of the modern world. (Wallerstein 1979:320; So 1990:179). According to

Wallerstein, core/periphery relationships developed during the formation of this modern world system.

Therefore, using the concept of the historical system to explain the overall global conditions of the past five centuries is the goal of Wallerstein and world systems theory.

The formation and condition of the modern world, viewed through the lens of the

13 historical system, defines world systems analysis. One of the major tenants of this analysis is a three-tiered system consisting of the core, semi-periphery, and the periphery

(Wallerstein 1979:70). Within this historical system, core areas change, although the characteristics of core areas persist through time. Domination of global commerce, channeling of extracted commodities, and regulating economies and commodity values defined core areas. Periphery areas are generally synonymous with frontier areas and extractive activities (So 1990; Gosden 2004:12-17). For example, in the 19th century in the Midwestern United States, extractive activities included the fur trade, followed by logging industries, followed by aggressive surplus agricultural production (Groover

2004:12). The semi-periphery includes those areas that mediate commerce between the core and periphery. These areas typically developed networks of transportation, information, and political importance (Wallerstein 1979; So 1990; Groover 2004). In the

19th century United States, eastern port cities such as New York, Philadelphia, Boston, and Baltimore are major semi-periphery areas.

Despite the label, world system theory is more a description than a theory

(Gosden 2004:17). This description argues that historical particulars specific to individual sites cannot be completely understood except when viewed through the lens of the larger world system. Although differentiated by Wallerstein, the capitalist and world systems operated on roughly the same model which stresses ―ceaseless accumulation‖, surplus production, and reinvestment of capital in a cyclical fashion (Gosden 2004:13).

World systems theory can be used to show the link between surplus agricultural production practiced by the Huddleston family and the massive exportation of those agricultural products. Transporting the agricultural surplus along networks of

14 infrastructure developed links between production and consumption. The Huddleston house articulated with the regional, local, and global economy in many ways. First, the farm complex profited from the frontier transportation system by catering to the wagon trade. John Huddleston ran a general store, livery, blacksmith shop, road construction company, campground, and inn which all served the needs of frontier travelers. Also, surplus agricultural production sold for profit linked the Huddleston family to the international economy. Therefore, world systems theory is an excellent interpretive framework through which to view the Huddlestons‘ daily activities. In this case, transporting large quantities of agricultural commodities to European markets shows the connection between the Huddleston family and the larger global system. The result of this exchange is evident in both the archaeological and documentary record. Surplus production by the Huddlestons and exportation of agricultural commodities by the United

States demonstrates the core/ periphery relationship between Western Europe and the

Western United States during the 19th century. World systems theory, therefore, can be used to link commercial farmers like the Huddleston family to the larger global system.

Therefore this thesis combined several methods in order to understand the relationship between the Huddleston family and the larger world system. As previously mentioned this research design used both archaeological and documentary evidence to interpret the site. This is one of the hallmarks of historical archaeology. Archaeological evidence was used to address numerous topics in this thesis: chronology, the affects of household succession on the landscape, and matching assemblages to specific households. Archaeological evidence has many advantages. Although it is interpreted, not unlike primary documents, the archaeological record is the actual preserved remnants

15 of human activity. They are often undisturbed and can be viewed directly. However, although the archaeological record is preserved, it is often fragmentary and broken. Very seldom are entire sites able to be excavated. In most cases, information is obtained through sampling a small portion of the total. In addition, taphonomy results in broken and disassembled evidence. Also, the archaeological record is ineffective in providing information on ephemeral events. Archaeology is a particularly poor method for analyzing on the evenements, or short range temporal scale. Even when an events and locations are well known, archaeological evidence is often very sparce. Archaeological evidence is best suited for showing general conditions and processes rather than specific events (Barber and Berdan 1998:261). However, archaeological evidence remains the principal source of information.

The use of documentary evidence has several advantages but some limitations as well. Exchange of agricultural commodities as enumerated on sheets might seem mundane. American production during this time usually has focused on manufacturing and technology (Rosenburg 1976; Hounshell 1984). However, farming was the major influence on the rural economy and landscape of 19th century Indiana. Leone et al. state,

―commodified relations are not the same as artifacts…but our task as archaeologist is to tie the two together so that the archaeological circumstances can be better understood‖(Leone et al 2006:17,18). Therefore, this data source should be used extensively to gain context. Two main goals are accomplished through the use of documentary sources in this thesis. To begin, rich contextual data pertaining to individual members of the household was obtained. Much of this information is simply not present in the archaeological record. Names, birth dates, occupations, and household

16 size are typically gained through documentary research. At the very least, this information can be used to ―impart an aesthetic appreciation of and an empathy with the human conditions of the past‖ (Deagan 1982:22). In addition to humanistic particulars, primary historical documents can be used to create databases from which the sites occupants can be compared. Census information, property tax records, and probate inventories are examples of common documentary sources historical archaeologists have used.(Horn 1986; Friedlander 1991; Groover 2003, 2004, 2008; Blanch 2007; Laswell

2008)

Field Methods.

Therefore, the analytical methods applied in this thesis , both to archaeological and documentary evidence, interpreted the site through multiple scales of analysis. By considering multiple temporal scales, consistent with the Annales school, and attempting to link this site to the larger global system via commodities exchange consistent with world systems theory, the articulation of the household to larger networks is possible.

Several different methods emphasizing multiple scales of analysis have been developed by Groover (2001, 2003, 2004, 2008). These methods involve analyzing both documentary and archaeological evidence. Regarding archaeological evidence, the process begins during excavation. In order to allow for a diachronic analysis of the artifacts, units must be excavated in thin section levels. The field methods used to help locate the structure and recover artifacts began with a spatial analysis of the 2002 shovel test pit (STP) survey (Zoll 2002). The location and artifact density of each STP was

17 quantified and used to produce the spatial artifact density distribution map. This spatial information was then used to determine the probable location of a structure. Then, test units were strategically placed above the areas of highest artifact concentration. Ten (10) test units were systematically excavated. The size of the test units were 3 feet-x-3 feet

(with the exception of unit 5 which measured 3 x 4 feet) and were excavated using thin levels of 0.20 feet in English engineer‘s scale. The units were excavated with trowels and the soil was screened through ¼ inch wire mesh. All cultural materials were segregated and bagged by provenience. Level depth was maintained throughout. These field methods are addressed more thoroughly in Chapter 7. By excavating in this way, a time sequence analysis can later be performed. Time sequence analysis is a diachronic analytical method with the ability to more precisely date deposits in order to more accurately link household succession to landscape transition and material culture change.

Laboratory Methods

The artifacts recovered from the 2007 excavation were analyzed using time sequence analysis. First, the units were excavated in thin section levels. As previously stated, the preferred level depth interval at historic site is 0.20 feet, which is approximately 2 3/8 inches. This was the depth interval used at the 2007 Huddleston

House excavation. Next, a mean artifact date (MAD) was calculated for each level. This step was accomplished by assigning a date, based on the mean date of manufacture, to each temporally diagnostic artifact. Mean dates used in this analysis are presented in

Appendix E. A total mean date was derived by combining the values of all the mean

18 artifact dates within a level, multiplying by the total count for each type, and then dividing by the overall total of combined temporally diagnostic artifacts.

After the mean artifact date (MAD) was calculated for each level, the third step was to chronologically sort each level regardless of the unit from which it came. Fourth, the MAD of each level was assigned to the specific decade, for example, the 1860s,

1870s, 1880s, and so forth. Fifth, the numbers of artifacts per type within each decade level were totaled. Sixth, these decade interval results were plotted on a timeline to show artifact distribution over time.

The results of a time sequence analysis of the Huddleston House artifact assemblage are presented in Chapter 7. The main purpose of excavating the Huddleston

House site in thin sections, and analyzing the artifacts through time sequence analysis, was to match diachronic interpretive theory to an analytical method which uses time depth.

Documentary Analysis Methods

In addition to the methods developed to interpret the archaeological record at

Huddleston house, specific methods were designed to analyze the documentary record.

Several different primary historical sources were consulted. Specific to linking interpretive theory to analytical methods, federal agricultural census schedules were utilized. The results of this analysis are presented in Chapter 6. The first step in the diachronic agricultural census analysis was to locate the Huddleston household on the enumeration sheet for each census year. These records are located on microfilm at the

19

Indiana State Archives. The results were transcribed onto a data table. Next, 30 individuals were selected (15 listed immediately before and after) for the comparative data set (Groover 2003:86; Blanch 2007). Neighbors were often next to one another on the enumeration sheets, due to the order in which they were enumerated. Local and small-scale level trends were examined by using this sampling method. Therefore, all comparative data was transcribed as well. The average land holdings, production amounts, and associated values were then determined. The average amounts as determined by arithmetic mean and standard deviation were calculated and then used for comparison. In doing so, the Huddleston household was compared to the local sample.

In turn, the local sample was compared to state and national trends. Average production quantities were also used to identify primary commodities, or the farm products in which the majority of the sample was most aggressively engaged.

Several different categories from the census sheets were combined to determine wealth value. In 1850, the amounts for these categories were added to determine total wealth value: cash value of farm, value of farming implements, value of livestock, and value of animals slaughtered. In the 1860 census, the same categories were used, however, additional categories included: value of orchard products, value of home manufacturers, and value of market gardens. These additional categories were not present on the 1850 census. Likewise, the category, value of forest products, appears in

1870 and after, but not before. At any rate, these categories were added to determine the total wealth value of each member of the sample. Once a wealth value was determined for each individual, a local average was figured.

20

In addition to analyzing wealth data in relationship to that arithmetic mean and standard deviation, the sample was divided into wealth groups. Determining these groups consisted of plotting the wealth value totals on a scatter plot and then spatially identifying reasonable clusters. Likewise, the sample was examined to determine average landholdings and production quantities. Disproportionately large amounts of certain products identified primary commodities. Average production values of primary commodities were also used to compare the sample through time. In addition, changes in average farm acreage among the sample were compared to county, state, and national averages to evaluate compliance.

The agricultural census analysis had several objectives. First, the results were used to identify the primary commodities being produced by local farmers. Second, county, state, and national amounts were identified to which the Huddleston family was compared. Also, by doing this type of statistical research for several different decades, a diachronic picture of national and household trends was able to be reconstructed. After compiling the data, changes in land ownership, centers of commodity production, and levels of exported goods were detected. This is a very straightforward way of linking the

Huddleston household to worldwide economic trends that occurred through time. This was also an excellent way of linking analytical method to interpretive theory.

In conclusion, the methods and theories used in this thesis examined the site from multiple scales, both spatially and temporally. This research design was adapted from the methods repeatedly utilized by Mark Groover (2003, 2004, 2008). Central to this theory is a combination of the Annales school of French social history, and world systems theory. Similarly, the methods rely on numerous different lines of evidence.

21

Specifically, archaeological evidence was analyzed in such a way as to identify diachronic trends. In addition, documentary evidence was considered on both a diachronic level and for its comparative potential. In addition to the use of documentary and archaeological data, this research design uses a multi-scalar approach in the temporal and spatial realm.

CHAPTER 3 REGIONAL CULTURE HISTORY AND LITERATURE REVIEW

In an effort to develop optimal interpretive context for the Huddleston House, a reconstruction of the significant historical events and trends of the time period was necessary. Several different factors influenced the Huddleston family through time.

Geographic location, religious ideology, and occupation were some of the most significant issues influencing the Huddleston family. Therefore, factors such as the

National Road, Quaker migration, Native American removal, and industrial transition are discussed. Each one of these topics played an important role in shaping the character of

Indiana and the farm families who settled there. Relevant literature with similar topics was also reviewed.

The National Road

As previously mentioned, the Huddleston farmstead lies along the National Road.

The completion of the National Road and subsequent migration westward was a significant catalyst to frontier settlement in the middle 19th century. The National Road was first commissioned by Thomas Jefferson in 1806 in the hopes of connecting eastern commerce to western markets. When complete in 1839, the road stretched from

Cumberland, Maryland in the east to Vandalia, Illinois. The path of the National Road is shown on Figure 3.1. Although the road played an extremely significant role in shaping

23 the western frontier, it never fully developed into what Jefferson had envisioned.

Because of the railroad and due to the fact that automobiles would not traverse the road until a century later, the National Road was ―both obsolete and premature‖ (Raitz 1996).

However, the influence the National Road had on shaping Indiana history was significant.

In Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois one stipulation to statehood was contingent upon allotting federal land sale proceeds to finance the road (Crumrin 1994). Furthermore, local merchants and politicians lobbied and bribed to ensure the road passed through their towns. Hundreds of thousands of wagons filled with migrant pioneer settlers and supplies negotiated the National Road in the 19th century (Burns 1919; Crumrin 1994;

Raitz 1996)

The necessity for a western route was recognized as early as the Revolutionary

War. Strategic military motives notwithstanding, the National Road also hoped to bring products to settlers in the west as an alternative to the trade network of the Spanish national road, the Mississippi River (Crumrin 1994). However, the National Road was also utilized by settlers seeking passage to cheap farmland. Cities and towns began to emerge along the National Road (Burns 1919; Crumrin 1994; Raitz 1996; Groover 2007;

Hunnicutt 2007). The impact of the road was evident in Indiana. Indeed, the population quadrupled during the period from 1820 to1840. Wayne County grew in population due to the heavy traffic and fertile land, and during these early decades of the 19th century, it had the highest population in the state (U.S. Bureau of the Census 1820, 1840, 1850).

Undoubtedly, the National Road had a significant impact on Wayne County. However, equally important were the contributions of Quakers in the founding and settling of the county.

Quakers

Wayne County was first settled at the end of the 18th century, primarily by

Quakers from North Carolina like the Huddleston family. (Russell 1942:274; Rudolph

1995; Laswell 2008:30). Today Wayne County is among the most densely populated

Quaker counties in the United States (U.S. Census Bureau 2000, see Figure 3.3).

Moreover, a greater number of Quakers live in Indiana than any other state (Samuel

1999). The 1795 Treaty of Greenville first recognized Wayne County, and the Twelve

Mile Purchase of 1811 expanded it to the current boundaries (Young 1872). The Quakers founded cities and towns, created a Quaker college (Earlham), and were very instrumental in electing Indiana‘s first governor, Jonathan Jennings (Young 1872;

Bigham 2001).

At the end of the 18th century, Quakers from the south began to migrate north to escape the institution of slavery. Jonathan and Phoebe, moved from Guilford County,

North Carolina along with hundreds of other Quakers during this migration (Weeks

1896:v-viii ; Hunnicutt 2007:4). Their son, John Huddleston, later built the house and established the farmstead on the Wayne County property adjacent to the National Road.

Quaker beliefs were inspired by the philosophy of George Fox in 17th century England

(Richmond 1995). Traditional Quaker beliefs include: direct dialogue with God, virtues of modesty and simplicity, a commitment to pacifism, racial and gender equality and educational advocacy; and abstinence from tobacco and alcohol (Saunders 2004;

Hunnicutt 2007:3). Therefore, Quakers were motivated to flee the immoral and inhumane institution of slavery. Also, Quakers sought to help relocate slaves (Laswell

2008:29-31). The issue of slavery not only drove Quakers from their southern

26 homelands, but was also the catalyst in the separation of the Indiana Meeting of Friends

(Rudolph 1995, minutes of Indiana Meeting of Friends). Wayne County was a known stop on the Underground Railroad. Famous Railroad ‗conductor‘ Levi Coffin, also born in Guilford County, reportedly helped thousands of slaves escape to freedom from his

Wayne County home in Newport [presently Fountain City](Hunnicutt 2007:3,

WayNet.org). There was no evidence of the Underground Railroad at Huddleston House.

A map which accompanies the book Southern Quakers and Slavery was consulted to demonstrate the magnitude and depth of the Quaker migration from the South (Weeks

1896, Figure 3.2). This map shows extant and extinct Quaker communities and meetinghouses. Quakers were in great number and broadly dispersed on the landscape of the south. However, as a result of migration due mainly to slavery, many of these Quaker moved north. From the map one can also see that in spite of the migration, Guilford

County, North Carolina was able to maintain a large population of Quakers. Today

Guilford County, like Wayne County is populated with one of the highest percentages of

Quakers (U.S. Census 2000, Figure 3.3). Many of the Quakers that left the south did so for a cause, not because they were aimless wanders or destitute. They left because of slavery, not to seek great opportunity in the vast expanses of the new frontier.

Native American Groups

Near the end of the 18th century, the Miami were the largest group of native people occupying the Indiana Territory. At this time the Miami included the Wea and

Piankeshaw tribes (Rafert 1996). The Treaty of Greenville, signed August 3, 1795,

27 essentially established a boundary between the native and European civilizations (Young

1872). Near the turn of the 19th century the Delaware, displaced from the Chesapeake

Bay, settled between the White and Ohio Rivers in present day Wayne County (Hoxie

1996:157-159). The Kickapoo also moved into the area around this time period. The

Nanticoke and the Mohegan came to Indiana during this time too, but had left by 1818

(Wilson 1966:21). The Potawatomi, originally from the Michigan Territory and against the protests of the Miami, moved down the Wabash River into Indiana in 1795

(Vanderstel 1985). By the late 18th century, the Shawnee began using Indiana as a hunting ground. Some Shawnee moved to east central Indiana in 1798 at the invitation of the Delaware. These Shawnee lived between the White and Mississinewa Rivers. Most of the Delaware left Indiana between 1818 and 1821 after ceding their lands in the Treaty of St. Mary‘s, Ohio. It was estimated that the White River Delaware numbered less than one thousand people at the time of their removal to present day Kansas and Oklahoma

(Hoxie 1996:157-159)..

From the time of the Treaty of Greenville, the Shawnees led the fighting against

European encroachment. At the White River settlement, a Shawnee medicine man,

Tenskwatawa, also known as the Prophet, emerged as a powerful influence among the tribes. He encouraged his people to return to the ways of their ancestors and to shed the white ways (Bigham 2001). This led to suspicion on the part of the United States government. Around 1808, the Prophet and his brother Tecumseh founded a village at

Tippecanoe which became the site of their defeat at the hands of General William Henry

Harrison (Trigger 1978). Very little is known regarding the interaction between the

Huddleston family and native groups.

Industrial Transition

National and regional trends during the 19th century include the processes of modernization and industrialization (Carter 1946; McGregor and Cline 2001). The decades of the mid 19th century brought with them vast changes to the Indiana landscape and to social patterns of Hoosiers. Indiana was transformed from wilderness frontier to tamed farmland and later, after the Civil War, from merchant dominated manufacture to industrial specialization (McGregor and Cline 2001:2). As forests were cleared and farmlands planted, many farmers were able to raise crops and make a meager profit. In the 1850s and 1860s land ownership rather than industrial profits provided the primary source of income for Hoosiers (Carter 1946:107). This situation left author Harvey

Carter to comment: ―The Jeffersonian ideal of a predominantly agrarian democracy was realized by the Hoosiers during the pre-Civil War decade‖ (Carter 1946: 108). However, after 1860 a shift in regional and national economics occurred. Regional resources and assembly were replaced with industrial products from the east. These products could be produced cheaply and transported quickly due to the influence of improving roads, canals, and especially railroads (McGregor and Cline 2001:2,4-5).

Previous archaeological excavations have been reported concerning the National

Road. One such article documents the construction techniques and materials, and original location of a section of the National Road (Michael 1975). Although much of the old road bed currently underlies U.S. 40, several sections deviate from the present course (Michael 1975:1). John Huddleston was said to have contributed to the construction of the National Road as it passed through western Wayne County (Evolution

31 of the Huddleston Farmhouse [EHF] n.d.; Groover 2008: pers. comm.). Crumrin (1994) provides a description of the road from an account by J. Gould, who traveled the entire length of the road in 1839. He noted:

The National Road was for the most part Macadamized and finished in the most

desirable manner as far as Columbus in Ohio. In Indiana, about four miles at

Richmond, a short piece at Centerville, about six miles at Indianapolis, and

three miles at Terre Haute, together with a few bridges, are completed in the same

substantial manner. However in some areas of the Hoosier state the road bed had

been formed with earth and in wet weather holes wash out and logs must be

thrown in, often by travelers themselves.

This sentiment is echoed in a rhyme that travelers would chant when traveling the

National Road:

The roads are impassable-- Hardly jackassable; I think those that travel 'em Should turn out and gravel 'em.(Huddleston 2008)

Similarly, the undesirable conditions of the National Road were exacerbated in eastern

Indiana where swamps abound. A swampy area just west of Huddleston House made it difficult for wagons to pass. It was not uncommon for a settler to spend an entire day crossing this swamp (Hunnicutt 2007). The modern USGS 7.5‘ map on Figure 3.4 shows several ponds and reservoirs in this area suggesting prior drainage difficulties.

Investigation into the extent of John Huddleston‘s involvement in the construction, maintenance, and improvement of the National Road would be significant in interpreting the past.

Quaker Archaeology

Archaeological excavations of North American Quaker homes and meeting houses have been conducted in , Virginia, and Rhode Island. (Brown 1987;

Samford 1990; O‘Donnell 2002; Bailey 2003). However, few have taken place within the culture history period or culture region as the Huddleston House (one such report will be discussed later, Rotman et al. 1998). Patricia Samford (1990) used historical documentary evidence as well as archaeological methods at the Bates site. Samford compared the artifact assemblage and store inventory of a wealthy Quaker planter and merchant to that of other contemporary merchants. The excavation took place in Virginia and the site was an early 18th century residence The Bates family, although among the wealthiest people in the county, were using the same types of ceramics and glass that middle-class households commonly purchased from their store (Samford 1990:27) Tolles

(1963) noted that despite Quaker beliefs which commanded plainness in all aspects of daily life, archaeological and documentary evidence show that many

Quakers owned finery similar to non-Quaker neighbors. Brown (1987) also studied colonial period Quakers. Brown‘s research at the Mott site in Rhode Island concluded it was continually occupied by Quakers from 1640 to1800. Similar to the Huddleston

House, a diachronic dimension was applied to the Mott site. Likewise, Brown (1987) discussed the same difficulty of recognizing Quaker occupations in archaeological assemblages noticed by Tolles (1963) and Samford (1990).

The notion of ―Quaker Plainness‖ was refuted by the investigation at Hoopes

House. Daniel Bailey began field work at the Hoopes House in London Grove

34

Township, Pennsylvania in 2003 (Rahn 2004). The house, which was a built by a

Quaker in 1786, was found to contain historical artifacts from decades prior to construction of the extant house. Through further research and excavation, the location of an older log cabin was discovered. Furthermore, the Hoopes House excavations recovered numerous artifacts. The artifacts suggest that the Quakers at Hoopes House live in a life style similar to their non-Quaker neighbors (Bailey 2003). Wine bottles, smoking pipes, and decorated dinner ware were recovered (Rahn 2004). Likewise, economic status of the Quakers at Hoopes House was seen on the landscape. Because it was one of only two brick houses in the area, the Hoopes wealth was on display (Rahn

2004).

Deborah Rotman et al. (1998) examined African-American and Quaker farmers in

Randolph County, Indiana. This study consisted of a historical records review, interviews with pioneer descendents, and a reconnaissance level survey of 985 acres.

The purpose of the research study was to confirm locations of farmsteads, understand the agricultural practices, determine whether ethnicity can be discerned from archaeology, and identify the catalysts for farmstead abandonment (Rotman et al 1998:5,6). The historical context offered by Rotman et al. provided information regarding Quaker migration from North Carolina to the Wayne and Randolph County area of Indiana. In addition, probate inventories of Randolph County farmers involved in the study are summarized and analyzed. This report indicated no significant differences in material culture attributed to ethnicity. Rotman et al. concluded that the information obtained in the study expanded the knowledge of lifeways of 19th century Quaker farmers in east

35 central Indiana. However, it is noted that farmsteads and rural life in frontier Indiana are poorly understood and require additional research.

Farmstead Archaeology

In the early 1980‘s farmsteads began to be recognized as historically and culturally significant resources (Groover 2008:7). Several different topics have been the focus of farmstead archaeology, including: artifact patterning, landscape reconstruction, architecture, food ways, economics, and status (Groover 2008:10,16). Groover presents numerous frameworks from which to study farmsteads. Using the culture history and culture regional approach to define location and period, Groover provides case studies of several different North American farmsteads over space and through time. National and regional trends are often reflected in individual case studies. This information has been used to reinforce and refute popular notions (Groover 2008:25). Landscape studies often employ a diachronic approach to define changes on the landscape over time (Groover

2008:16).

Landscape archaeology of the American farmstead has proved a fruitful topic of research. Topics such as boundary maintenance, farm layout, farmhouse architecture and function, and reconstructing landscape history are discussed by William Adams (1990).

He argues that these topics provide a basis from which to study historic farmsteads.

Indeed, one main focus of this research is to reconstruct the changing landscape through time at the Huddleston House. Adams provides references to several mid 19th century books that became rather popular for farm building placement, and design. Famous

36 abolitionist author of Uncle Tom’s Cabin, Harriet Beecher Stowe shares authorship of one such book on farm building placement and design (Adams 1990:98). In addition, journals such as American Agriculturalist, American Farmer, and Prairie Farmer circulated 250,000 copies by 1860 (Adams 1990:96). This type of planned landscape design is present at the Huddleston farmstead. This information demonstrates a certain level of conformity to a shared ideal. Adams concludes that farmsteads should be studied as a whole system. Because the farm system had to respond to a number of outside forces and ideas, the changes on the landscape of the farm often mirror the changes in broader societal context. Therefore, the degree of change may reflect the level of conservatism of the farmer (Wilson 1990:100-101).

Recently, Ben Ford addressed the issue of land use and the extent of commercial production at a farmstead in Londonderry, (2008). Ford provided a diachronic comparison through time at the Pettengill farmstead. As demand for activity space increased, the farm grew as outbuildings were constructed. The sprawling

Londonderry farmstead included several buildings which were all connected around 1855

(Ford 2008:66). The connected nature of the buildings caused this type of farms to be called a connected farm. This ―connected ell‖ shape served several purposes. First, from a functional perspective, this was a physical block from nor‘easter winds for workers in the yard (Ford 2008:61). Secondly, this arrangement was more energy efficient, both in terms of proximity and heating efficiency in the winter (Ford 2008:62). Also, less space taken by buildings meant the more space for cultivation. However, Ford also offers another motive for constructing a connected farm. The façade and the front yard was virtually the only portion of the farm which was visible to passersby on the street (Ford

37

2008:70). This meant that a very small portion of the farm needed to be maintained and painted in a way to provide the desired public presentation of self to neighbors and the community (Ford 2008:70-71).

With some notable exceptions, few historic farmsteads have been thoroughly studied in Indiana. Christopher Koeppel (2002) investigated a Davies County farmstead and concluded that farmsteads of the early French-Canadian settlement period were situated in long, narrow lots along rivers rather than divided by the British township arrangement. This type of landscape formation is still prevalent in the southwestern part of the state along the Wabash River including areas near Vincennes. Also, Deborah

Rotman et.al (1998) has investigated several farmsteads in Indiana. One conclusion of

Rotman‘s research was related to the change in farm dynamics prior to 1850 and up to the turn of the 19th century. The overall settlement and economic trend that Rotman observed involved the changing status of the self-sufficient, early rural towns in Indiana, which were devoted to simple agricultural economy. With increased competition from large scale farming industries, many small farm families chose not to compete. By the turn of the century many former farm families had migrated from rural areas into growing cities in search of wage labor (Rotman et al.1998, Koepple n.d.). In addition, Rotman et al. attempted to reveal ―ethnic signatures‖ contained within artifact assemblages of certain groups, for example Quakers and African Americans.

Recent archaeological investigations by students from Indiana University-Purdue

University at Ft Wayne (IPFW) were conducted at a 19th century Swiss farmstead in

Switzerland County (Strezewski 2004). One notable result from this excavation was the revelation that many Swiss farmers in the region grew grapes for producing wine rather

38 than growing grain (Koepple n.d.). This lifestyle was obviously developed in Europe and later transplanted by the people who settled in this area of Indiana along the Ohio River.

Mark Groover has previously addressed diachronic trends of farm households in the South (Groover ,1998,2003,2008). A quintessential implementation of this research design is exemplified in the 2003 book, An Archaeological Study of Rural Capitalism:

The Gibbs Farmstead in Southern Appalachia 1790-1920. Groover explored several different interrelated topics which examine the relationship between temporal process, material life and household succession (2003:4-5). Using agricultural geography and comparative census data, Groover (2003) establishes core/periphery relationships consistent with world systems theory. Groover argues that family-operated farms are

―historically typical, yet archaeologically atypical‖ (2003:7). Therefore, although small farms were a majority condition for rural residents during the 19th century, they are underrepresented in the archaeological literature (Friedlander 1990:104 in Groover 2003).

For this reason, the Huddleston farmstead represents an equally relevant research topic.

In addition, the near century long occupation by the Huddleston family at the farm provides adequate time depth with which to examine these topics in a similar way.

In conclusion, although few archaeological investigations have been conducted in

Indiana on historic farmsteads, a modest amount of preliminary information has been obtained. In addition, historical context was gained by reconstructing local historical events and themes. These events were significant in influencing farm families such as the Huddlestons. In addition, the research design and interpretive methods and theory which were used by Groover in the past to study eastern and southern farmsteads can be implemented in the Midwest. Interestingly, the goals and research questions which are

39 addressed through Groover‘s research design are able to answer the same questions advocated in the Indiana Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology mission statement (Groover 1998, 2004, 2008; Koepple n.d.).

CHAPTER 4 EXTENDED FAMILY AND PROPERTY HISTORY

The genealogy presented in this chapter was obtained by consulting the

Manuscripts and Visual Collections Department at the Indiana Historical Society‘s

William Henry Smith Memorial Library (Wilmont 2005). In addition, information was obtained from the Wayne County Genealogical Society Library, in Richmond, Indiana.

This genealogy focused primarily on the patrilineal line of descent to John Huddleston, the man who built Huddleston House. From there, the genealogy focused on the people descended from John Huddleston that would later own the property. United States Bureau of the Census (USBC) enumeration forms and Wayne County property transfer books were also consulted. Figure 4.1 and Table 4.1 present the Huddleston genealogy chart and corresponding names. The shaded individuals on the chart in Figure 4.1 and Table

4.1 represent the ancestors from who John Huddleston was descended. From that point, at number 77 on the chart, the shaded individuals represent Huddleston House farmstead property owners.

The Huddleston family history begins in North America in 1660 when Catherine

Chatham, a Quaker, immigrated to Boston. (Wilmont 2005; Wayne County Genealogical

Society [WCGS] 2009; Don Cordell, pers. comm.). In about 1663 Catherine Chatham

41 married widower John Chamberlain and they had three children. However, John

Chamberlain died in 1666. Meanwhile, Valentin Huddleston had immigrated to Calvert

County, Maryland in 1663. Valentine and Catherine Chatham-Chamberlain were subsequently married although the date is unclear. Land transactions recorded in

Newport, Rhode Island indicate that Valentin and Catherine were married and living there at this time. Valentine and Catherine had four children, one of whom was Henry.

Henry was born in Rhode Island in 1673 and married Sara Case, of Dartmouth

Massachusetts. Henry Huddleston and Sarah case Huddleston had seven children, one of whom was Seth, who was born and 1715 in Dartmouth Massachusetts. Seth married

Elizabeth Fish and they had four children all of whom were female with the exception of

Seth Jr., the baby, born in 1746. Ironically, Seth Jr. and his wife Lydia Gifford, also had several daughters and only one son. His name was Jonathan, born in 1778. Jonathan had six sisters. Although Jonathan was born in Bristol, Massachusetts, the family moved to

Guilford County, North Carolina sometime after 1787. Jonathan Huddleston married

Phoebe Gardner in Guilford County North Carolina sometime before the turn of the 19th century. They had thirteen children, eight boys and five girls. The second of their eight sons was John, born 1807, who would later build the Huddleston House site in Wayne

County, Indiana. Jonathan‘s first entry in Quaker records was for a list of application for membership in 1817 at the Deep River, North Carolina meeting Listed in the same volume are also several ―high jinks‖ committed by Jonathan. (Heiss 1962:259; Wilmont

2005:9). Similar transgressions would later result in Jonathan being excommunicated from the Quaker faith. Motivated by a number of reasons including anti-slavery,

45 opportunity, and adventure, Jonathan and Phoebe left North Carolina.

The federal census of 1810 indicates Jonathan and Phoebe were living in

Greensboro Township, Guilford County, North Carolina with their six children and a female over the age of 45, presumably Jonathan and/or Phoebe‘s mother. A person named Jonathan Huddleston appears on the 1820 Federal census enumeration sheet of

Springfield Township, Robertson County Tennessee, probably the same Jonathan

Huddleston that left Guilford County, North Carolina and settled in Wayne County

Indiana.

Census data are excellent sources for contextualizing historical archaeological sites. Specifically, in this example, the path of migration can successfully be reconstructed. However, careful analysis of the 1820 census leads to some minor speculation. Figure 4.2 shows the original document with transcribed tables. Although the census sheet signifies one male and one female between the ages of 25 and 45

(presumably Jonathan and Phoebe), the number of children were recorded incorrectly.

The 1810 enumeration from Guilford County, North Carolina, correlates perfectly to the number of children in the confirmed genealogy. As indicated in Figure 4.2 the 1820 census shows Jonathan Huddleston having only two males and two females under the age of 10. However, Jonathan Huddleston had ten children by 1820, six of whom would still be living at home. However, the 1820 census also shows a female over the age of 45.

The presence of this middle age female with a in the household strongly suggests this

Jonathan Huddleston is the same Jonathan Huddleston that left North Carolina sometime after 1817. Assuming that this is the same Jonathan Huddleston, he did not stay in

Tennessee long. The 1830s census clearly documented both Jonathan and John settled and farming in Union County, Indiana. Jonathan and his family moved one more time in the ensuing decade of the 1830s, and by 1839, they would be settled in Wayne County, Indiana.

From this point, the bulk of genealogical research focuses on those members of the

Huddleston family that occupied or owned the Huddleston House site in Wayne County,

Indiana. Also, it is necessary to divide the occupation of the property into chronological periods based on ownership. The entire European occupation of this site can be divided into four periods: the Frontier period, the Huddleston period, the Transition period, and the

Restoration period.

The Frontier Period

The frontier period includes the period from first European contact (approximately

1500 A.D.) until the property was acquired by John Huddleston. The frontier period was so labeled because of the forested nature of the landscape. The land was not being used as a means of production by conventional standards. The land was first purchased in 1821

(Wayne County Land Patent Book [WCLPB] 1821:28). The land in section 28 was divided into six different 80 acre plots and one 160 acre plot. Figure 4.3 shows the names of the first owners of Township 12 Range 16 Section 28. Notice that the land the Huddleston farmstead would later occupy was both in the east half of the southeast quarter, but also extends north

into the southern portion of the northeast quarter. Therefore, Nathan Pearson and John Burket were the first landowners of European descent. Later, a man by the name of Samuel

Cochran was reported to have been an early resident of the land (Young 1872:519).

Jonathan Pleagor, the man from whom John Huddleston purchased the property was the final frontier period property owner. The frontier period ended in 1839.

The Huddleston Period

The Huddleston period began when John Huddleston purchased the property until the time the farm was sold out of the family. This period began in 1839 and ended in 1934. As previously discussed, the Huddleston house site was passed from one generation to the next for a 95 year. To better contextualize and examine the Huddleston period this 95 year interval should be divided into an early, middle, and late occupation phase, each of which consisting of approximately 30 years. Therefore the early phase began in 1839 and ended in

1877 with the death of John. The middle phase began in 1877 and included the decades in which Levi and Henry occupied and owned the property and ended in 1906. Last, the late phase began in 1906 when Charles purchased the farm from Henry, and ended when Hazel

Eller Huddleston sold the farmhouse out of the family in 1934. The following sections explain the nature, significance, and trends associated with each phase.

Early phase: John Huddleston occupation, 1839 to 1877

John Huddleston first acquired the 77 acre parcel of land, the vast majority of which lies in the southeast quarter of Section 28 on August 13, 1839 from Jonathan

Plerager. (Wayne County Transfer Book [WCTB] No. 1 1840-1845:158). He began construction on his home and farmstead shortly thereafter. The buildings and their position on the landscape were established during this time. Undoubtedly several factors were involved in this decision making process. The circumstances motivating these decisions will be discussed later in Chapter 8. John and his wife Suzanne Myer (or

Moyer) were married in 1830 and had 11 children, one of whom, Daniel, died in infancy.

Figure 4.6 shows the Huddleston family Bible with the members of the family written on the first page. As previously stated, John and Susan Huddleston had 11 children, 10 surviving to adulthood. As shown in Figures 4.1 and 4.5 all of their children were married. When John died in 1877 from a kick to the head from his horse, ownership of the farm passed to his heirs (WCTB 1875-1880:H). The particulars of the succession of ownership and inheritance will be discussed later in this section. Information regarding the offspring of four of John and a Susana Huddleston‘s children was obtained. A line that descended from Levi, Henry, Amos, and Jonathan was discovered. Relevant to this discussion are the descendants of Levi and Sarah M. Payne Huddleston, and Henry and

Sara Jane Jones Huddleston.

John and Suzanne‘s first son was Levi Huddleston, born 1832. Levi married

Sarah Payne in 1859 and they had two children James Valaris and Clarence. Levi‘s

52

FIGURE 4.5. Huddleston family Bible.

53 younger brother, Henry Huddleston was born in 1833. Henry and his wife, Sarah Jones, had 10 children. In 1880 or 1881, Henry and Sarah moved from Henry County, Indiana back home to the Huddleston House (WCTB1875-1880:H). Of their 10 children seven were believed to have joined them. Of the seven Huddleston boys born to Henry and

Sarah, Charles, born fifth, bought the farmstead in 1906. Interestingly, the farmstead was not inherited, but rather purchased by Charles a years before his father‘s death. The details surrounding this transaction are currently not well understood, however this fact will later be used as a way to interpret the documentary and archaeological evidence.

Middle Phase: The Levi and Henry Huddleston occupation, 1877 through 1906

Conflicting reports concerning the ownership status of the property following John‘s death are examined here. According to extensive corroborative evidence, Levi, the eldest son of John and Suzanne inherited the property in 1877 (see Appendix G; Wayne County

Will Book [WCWB] 1881:389; USBC 1880). The particulars of the transaction are not completely clear. Although Levi never appeared in the Wayne County Transfer Books as the official property owner, the probate and will record indicated:

…in the deeds above referred to which has been conveyed by a quit claim deed

dated November 23, 1877 made by the heirs of John Huddleston to Levi

Huddleston during his life time and at his death to his two children Valaris and

Clarence Huddleston is hereby excepted and reserved… (WCWB 1877:389)

Levi had two sons, as the will indicated. According to the will book entry, Levi was to inherit the property, and upon his passing his two sons would be given the

54 opportunity to occupy the house and farm. However, this did not happen. Neither son would carry out the wishes of their grandfather and operate the family farm.

This was a time of extreme transition within the Huddleston household. The

Huddleston farmstead did not appear on the 1880 agricultural census. The only two people with the last name of Huddleston who were enumerated in the 1880 agricultural census in Jackson Township, Wayne County were David, and Nathan, neither of whom were immediate relatives. Also, neither David nor Nathan Huddleston operated a farm the same size as the Huddleston House farmstead (USBC 1880). The 1880 population census indicates that Susannah Huddleston was living with Phoebe, presumably in the farmhouse. Also, the census states that Levi suffered from sciatica and that his occupation was ―broom maker‖(USBC 1880). Because, Levi was disabled, Susannah was approximately 80 years old, and the farmstead was not present in the 1880 agricultural census, it is reasonable to assume the farmstead was in a state of stagnation.

Likely, members of the Huddleston family were not farming the land. Perhaps they rented out the land to other farmers.

At this same time, while the Huddleston farmstead was struggling, Henry

Huddleston was living in Dudley Township, Henry County, Indiana with his wife, Sarah, and their eight children (USBC 1880). His occupation was listed as ―farmer‖. Shortly after this, in 1881, Levi Huddleston passed away and Henry returned home to Wayne

County to operate the farm. Several transactions occurred within the family that

55

FIGURE 4.6. 1856 Wayne County atlas.

55

56 culminated in Henry claiming ownership of the farmstead. Henry received 70 acres in the SE quarter and 6.90 acres in the NE quarter on which the farmhouse was located.

Reconstructing the Household particulars during this time period is difficult. However, additional internal family transactions help to provide clues. These include compensation of both cash and property to members descended from John and Suzanne, for example,

Solomon Cripe (WCTB 1875-1880:H) These transactions were significant and they illustrate the size and structure of the farmstead. As a result, during Henry‘s occupation, in the middle phase, the size of the farmstead peaks at 83.25 acres (WCTB 1880-1885:H;

Wayne County Atlas 1884).

As mentioned, the Huddleston farmstead does not appear on the 1880 agricultural census. Also, a fire in the federal building destroyed nearly the entire 1890 census. In addition, the 1900 census indicates that the head of household, Henry, was a ―landlord‖ by occupation (USBC 1900). Only four people are listed as household members: Henry,

Charley H., Elmer E., and Walter S. (USBC 1900). Among the four, only Charley is farming. Machinist and railroad laborer are the listed occupations of Elmer and Walter, respectively.

Late Phase: the Charles and Kenneth Huddleston occupation, 1906 through 1934

In 1906 Charles Huddleston purchased the farmstead from his father, Henry

(WCTB 1905-1910:H). Charles claimed ownership of the land on May16, 1906.

The farm included the 13.23 acres of land in the northeast quarter of the township and also the 70 acres of farmland south of the railroad in southeast quarter of the township.

What was a bit curious about this transaction is that the property was purchased outright and not inherited. The circumstances surrounding this transition in ownership are not well understood. A record of Henry on an enumeration sheet for the 1910 census was unable to be located. His whereabouts during this period are unknown. Henry did not die for another seven years after the farm was sold, in 1913. Nevertheless, the transition in ownership in 1906 between Henry and Charles provides a benchmark on the timeline of the Huddleston occupation period. This transition from the middle to late occupation phase can be used as a reference point to better explain landscape events and interpret the archaeological record. Indeed, several changes to the property occur during the late phase of Huddleston occupation.

Charles H. Huddleston, born 1873, grew up at Huddleston House. As a young man he married Wilmina Price, and fathered two sons; Kenneth and Henry, In 1906,

Charles bought the farmstead on which he was raised from his father, Henry. Charles lived the remainder of his days on the property. Both Charles and Wilmina died in

January of 1930(Richmond Palladium-Item 1930). Wilmina died from illness (Richmond

Palladium-Item 1930:). Charles committed suicide due to despondency (Richmond

Palladium-Item 1930: January 13). The property was then inherited by their two sons,

Kenneth and Henry. They divided the property. Kenneth inherited 13.2 acres of land north of the railroad including the house. Henry was given the 70 acres of farmland south of the railroad (Wayne County Transfer Book1932-1936:33-34). Kenneth married and had one daughter, named Betty. He later divorced and married Hazel Eller. (Wayne

60

County Genealogical Society; Don Cordell, pers. comm.). However, only two short years after inheriting the farmstead, Kenneth died and the house was left to his wife

Hazel in May of 1932. In 1934, only two years after the death of her husband, Hazel

Eller Huddleston sold the house and farmstead, and ended 95 years of Huddleston ownership and occupation (Wayne County Transfer Book 1932-1936:33-34)

Transition and Restoration Periods: 1935-Present

Several property transactions occur during the transition period. Table 4.2 lists the property owners during this time. Small, moderately successful business ventures define the transition period. Several of the owners during the transition phase sought to capitalize on the ‗historic‘ nature of the property. For example, period dress of the middle 19th century was customary for workers during one restaurant venture in the

1960‘s (Richmond Palladium-Item 1962:4).

However, the transition period is most accurately described by acknowledging the advanced state of deterioration of the property. Therefore, the restoration period began in the late 1960s when the Historical Landmarks Foundation of Indiana purchased the property. The property remains in a state of constant restoration. Small restoration projects are intermittently undertaken. Currently, the museum is closed to the public for extensive restoration (Historic Landmarks of Indiana).

CHAPTER 5 HISTORICAL CONTEXT: NINETEENTH CENTURY REGIONAL AND GLOBAL AGRICULTURAL TRENDS

As previously mentioned, one of the objectives of this research design is to develop historical context of an area in order to interpret regional trends. A major part of this goal can be accomplished through agricultural geography (Groover 2008:18,128).

Agricultural geography is concerned with identifying the agricultural production history of a particular region. This approach has two advantages. First, by understanding the major production and economic activities throughout a region, core/periphery status can be established. Secondly, because daily activities were structured around agriculture, contextual insight into behavior and motivation can be gained (Groover 2003). In addition, this information can be used to demonstrate how the members of the household are linked to the world system, and their relative socioeconomic class in their community.

Therefore, this section has several objectives. First, a brief overview of the early settlement period of Indiana is presented which focuses specifically on the establishment of farmsteads. This demonstrates the farming tradition that has persisted in Indiana since early statehood. Collaborative data is used to identify the corn/pork commercial agricultural tradition that developed early in the state. A brief discussion about rising labor costs, westward American expansion, farm technology, and their effects on global corn prices in the last half of the 19th and early 20th century follows. Chapter 5

68 concludes by identifying main areas of surplus agricultural commodities production throughout the United States in the 19th century. This enables the identification of core/periphery regions through time. Changes in the locality of core/periphery areas through time mirror the passing of the frontier to the west as the 19th century progressed.

Census figures are used to establish this relationship and demonstrate this point.

Hoosier Farming

Purchasing land in Indiana before 1820 could be done with relative ease.

However 160 acres of land outside of unincorporated areas, was the minimum required purchase. The cost of land at this time was $2.00 per acre (Nation 2005:18). After the panic of 1819, which saw widespread delinquency, Congress lowered the minimum purchase to 80 acres at $1.25 per acre. The minimum purchase was again reduced to 40 acres in 1832, which resulted in boom years between 1834 and 1836. Prices continued to decline and land was purchased quickly (Nation 2005:19-20).

During this early settlement, migrations of people came from multiple places

(Nation 2005:14). Following the French colonial period, European settlement of Indiana generally occurred from the migration of people from two places: the Mid-Atlantic and the upper South. Both migrations can actually be traced back to the Pennsylvania and

Mid-Atlantic area. One of these Migrations into Indiana was along the Ohio River by people coming directly east of the Appalachian ridge. The other was from the upper

South and came through the Cumberland Gap. This migration also began in the

Pennsylvania/Mid-Atlantic area and headed down the Shenandoah Valley into Virginia

69 and North Carolina. The large majority of people, who came to Indiana along this southern route, can actually be traced to the Mid-Atlantic region. The early Indiana settlers that came from the upland South should not be associated with the plantation culture of the lowland South (Clifton 1977:158-61). In southeastern and east central

Indiana, several different ethnic enclaves developed. Most notably, German Catholics and Quakers came to the area in sizable numbers. (Nation 2005:14-17).

Almost all these early settlers came to farm. Census statistics from 1820 to 1850 indicate that in some counties over 97 percent of the workforce engaged in agricultural activities (USBC 1820-1850). This did not come easy. To early settlers like John

Huddleston, the initial cost of land would have been only a portion of the expense for the first year. The land would need cleared, structures built, sod busted and mouths fed.

Often times early frontier farmers would not see a profit for several years (Nation 2005).

Atack and Bateman (1987) perform a cost analysis to determine the advantage of investing in a frontier Midwestern farm in the early 19th century verses buying an established farm further east. They conclude that the cost to maintain a farm increased in areas of higher population density at a greater rate than production outputs. Simply put, no advantage exists in maintaining a large farm in densely populated areas in the eastern states. Land was much more expensive in the eastern, more densely populated states compared to the sparsely populated western frontier. Consequently, a farm of equal acreage would increase in value the further east it was located. Because of this, eastern farms were more prone to specialize in commodities other than grains which could be produced on a larger scale and at a cheaper price further west (Danhof 1941:319, Ankli

1969). Recently, Gibbs et al.(2009) have examined the transformation of the dairy

70 industry from primarily a household production model to a mass produced factory system in the 1860s. A noticeable change from sheep and grain agriculture to dairy specialization in Chenango County, New York impacted the 19th century farmsteads.

This evidence reiterates the advantages of operating a grain and livestock farm, such as the corn/swine production prevalent to Indiana, in larger farms located further west geographically.

However, establishing the farmstead was just the tip of the iceberg. Success was difficult, and by deciding to engage in surplus agricultural production, several risks were at stake. The Huddleston family and their farming neighbors were beholden to not only mother nature but also world markets. A tradition of surplus corn production became the way of life for many Hoosiers, and the Huddlestons were no different. Although most

Hoosier farmers were engaged in surplus production of agricultural commodities, they did not want to run the risk of having to buy back from a merchant at an inflated price

(Nation 2005:105). Therefore, one major advantage to hog and corn farming was a steady source of food for the farmer‘s family (Nation 2005:78).

Corn Laws

When the Importation Act of 1846 repealed the Corn Laws, grain tariffs were lifted leaving markets wide open to American products (Pickering and Tyrell 2000).

Imports of corn to Britain and other European countries steadily increased from 1850 through 1880 (USBC 1850-1880). Cereal prices continued to increase until they begin to stabilize in the 1870s. Corn prices began to fall as increased productivity and westward expansion increased output capability. Farm mechanization and infrastructure

71 improvements allowed for increased productivity. However, they did not increase the average yield per acre (Aldridge et al 1986; Jurgenheimer 1985). Because of this many farmers with small amounts of land had no advantage to invest in machinery. Neither machinery nor intense labor was required in corn production (Nation2005:105).

However, when prices began to fall, increased acreage and productivity was required to maintain an equal economic status relative to the previous decade.

The second half of the 19th shows a more rapid increase in labor wage than in the cost of land (Van Zanden 1991:215-16). This created a situation in which productivity and efficiency was of primary concern. Early in the 19th century, even when surplus agricultural production was the goal, no great advantage was attached to efficiency.

Unlike southern cash crops, and even wheat, corn could be harvested at any time without intense labor. Many farmers did not need to hire much additional labor than what their family could provide (Nation 2005:96-109). However, improved infrastructure and farm implements placed a premium on efficiency and spurred the movement of farmland westward. William Parker states:

With or without new agricultural technology the westward movement of

agriculture would have taken place. That it occurred at the speed it did in the

presence of commercialization and with the release of labor that allowed

industrialization to proceed in mid-America was due to the technical

environment (1988:125).

Due in part to rising labor costs, increasingly large, and efficiently operated farms in the west, cereal prices peaked at the mid-century mark and began to steadily

72 decline after 1870. Severe economic crisis in the early 1890s created a volatile commodities market. The economic Panic of 1890 and Depression of 1893, caused by high unemployment, excessive railroad and mining speculation, stagnate and flooded world commodities markets, and widespread farm mortgage indebtedness resulted in falling grain prices (Whitten 2001). In 1896, for example the price of most cereals was less than half of what it had been in 1870 (Van Zanden 1991: 227). The price of corn fell to $0.10 a bushel in Kansas in 1889, about half the cost of production (Whitten 2001).

Many farmers tried to combat this by producing more crops; however, this only depressed the flooded markets further (Hoffman 1970; Whitten 2001).

A favorable British market near the turn of the 20th century increased demand for imports but did not match the increase in production due to expanded infrastructure and mechanization. (Fishlow 1985:396). Corn could simply be more cheaply and efficiently produced, and in larger quantities than it had a half century before. To make matters worse for farmers like the Huddleston family, the cost of farming tripled between the years 1867 in 1914, although output increased six fold. (Parker 1988:126). Because land was cheaper than labor, many of these lands were worked ―extensively rather than intensively‖ (Atack and Bateman 1987:217). Fluctuating yields per acre, with a larger total production at a lower cost was the result (Atack and Bateman 1987:217). However, the final decades of the 19th century also witnessed an increased demand for livestock products. Therefore, Hoosier farmers that were engaged in corn and swine farming could meet the challenges of falling grain prices by supplementing their income with hogs (Van

Zanden 1991:228). Figures 5.10, 5.11, 5.12, and 5.13 present the price, production, and yield of corn from 1866-1940 in the United States.

73

J.R. Elliott‘s, American Farms, published in 1890, contextualizes this perspective.

This first-hand account of the dire situation among American farmers near the turn of the

20th century suggests numerous difficulties and hardships for owner operated farmsteads.

Elliot compares the wages of a farm laborer to the earnings of a farm owner. He comes to the bleak conclusion that in 1890 it was far less worrisome and more worthwhile to work on a farm rather than own a farm. Elliott then states: ―the value of farm land has seldom been lower in the last 30 years than now‖ (1890:3). Census data reveals that 60% of the nation's wealth was possessed by farmers in 1850. This total fell to 53% in 1860, and by 1890 had fallen to 35% (Elliot 1890:37). Between 1909 and 1914 known as the

―parity years‖ farm prices rose slightly compared to other segments of the economy

(Young 2000:91). However, as the Great Depression worsened, farmers began to suffer badly. Congress enacted the Agricultural Adjustment Act in 1933, which formed the modern foundation of United States farm policy (Council for Agricultural Science and

Technology 1992). However, this act came only a year before the Huddleston farmstead was sold and was therefore ineffective in helping the family retain their ancestral home.

Therefore, the overall relative trend of farming in Indiana has followed: a period of establishment (statehood-1840), followed by a steady increase in production and value

(1841 through 1875), followed by a three decade decrease in relative value (1876-1908), punctuated by a rise and a leveling-off (1909-1914), and concluding in a downward direction into the 1930‘s.

This trend of fluctuating economic markets was very prevalent in the 19th century. Global and local economies exhibited cyclicity over time. These were seen in boom and bust cycles. (Kondratieff 1979). Economic expansion and contraction

74 generally operated on about a 50 year cycle in 19th century, called Kondratieff waves, or

K-waves (Pruden 1978:63-70; Kondratieff 1979; Groover 2003:11) Solomou (1986:165-

169) debated the precision of the Kondratieff wave model. He agreed that the world economies of the 19th century were quite volatile and fluctuated in a cyclical fashion.

However, he stated that evidence suggests that differential growth rates in world economies were base on waves of less irregularity and greater amplitude than the K-wave

(Solomou 1986:169). Nevertheless, the K-wave model provides a general representation of the trajectory of 19th century macroeconomic fluctuation (see Figure 5.1). These macroeconomic cycles definitely influenced the Huddleston families on the farm. Some early households benefited from favorable while others suffered from weak economic conditions

Census statistics from the 19th century were consulted in the hopes of identifying farming trends and locating main areas of surplus agricultural commodities production throughout the United States in the 19th century. This information established core/periphery regions and relationships throughout the United States during this time period. Changes in the locality of core/periphery areas through time are particularly interesting, anthropologically speaking because it helps to indicate the likelihood of culture change. Therefore, the follow section uses census figures to establish this relationship and demonstrate this point.

Agricultural Geography

Identifying national and regional trends provides a barometer from which to

75

FIGURE 5.1. Kondratieff wave (Pruden 1978:65).

75

76 measure local or community level adherence or deviation. Moreover, the Huddleston household was then compared to the local sample in order to gauge their level of compliance to the community trend. The following section identifies major areas of surplus agricultural commodities. Using agricultural geography to identify the production history of a region enables the reconstruction of land use. Diachronic land use trends can be identified on the regional level. Therefore, local or community level of compliance or deviation can be determined. Therefore, a world systems approach is an ideal perspective. As previously mentioned, this is useful when establishing core/periphery relationships. Sampling of census data reveals regions throughout the country which are most heavily engaged in farming.

Census mapping is a useful method for quickly identifying major areas of production. First, the states ranking in the top ten (10) for a category were segregated. In this case, the top corn producing states were considered. Then, these ten were divided in half: 1) top tier and 2) second tier states. Table 5.1 presents this data. Next, these results were plotted on a map of the United States. Top tier states and second tier states were then shaded with different colors. This process was repeated for each decade. Regions of the country which specialize in specific commodities can be easily identified this way.

From a world systems perspective, core/periphery regions emerge. Not only does this enable identification of core/periphery areas, but it also is able to track changing core/periphery/semi-periphery relationships though time.

Census mapping revealed that Indiana was a major producer of corn in the United

States during the 19th century. However, as indicated by Figures 5.2-5.6, this method is

At this point, terms should be defined to eliminate confusion. In world systems theory, as previously mentioned, one of the major tenants is a three tiered system consisting of the core, semi-periphery, and the periphery (Wallerstein 1979:70). Within this historical system, core areas change, although the characteristics of core areas persist through time. Domination of global commerce, channeling of extracted commodities, and regulation of economy‘s and commodity values define core areas. Periphery areas are it generally synonymous with frontier areas and extractive activities (So 1990;

Gosden 2003:12-17). For example in the 19th century in the Midwestern United States, extractive activities included the fur trade, followed by logging industries, followed by aggressive surplus agricultural production (Groover 2003:12). Therefore, referring to these areas of intense surplus agricultural as ―core‖ regions of production should be avoided. Although these regions may be the nucleus of production, by definition they are not ―core‖ areas, but rather periphery areas because they aggressively engage in extractive activities and industries.

The same census mapping analysis was performed with data at the county level for the state of Indiana. Table 5.2 presents the leading Indiana counties for corn and swine production during two decades of the mid 19th Century. Because Indiana contains over 90 counties, the counties ranking in the top twenty were used in the analysis. Top tier and second tier counties are presented in Table 5.2 alphabetically.

Figures 5.7 and 5.8 reveal that corn production is particularly concentrated in the central portion of the state. The areas including Wayne and adjacent counties, as well as those of equal latitude appear to produce to highest amount of corn during this time throughout the state. In addition, this method was successful in identifying Wayne County as a major producer of pork during the 19th Century. However, Figures 5.9 and 5.10 illustrate that the counties with the greatest number of swine were less concentrated than the top corn producing counties. This may be attributed to environmental factors such as topography and soil type. Regardless, this area of central Indiana was among the most productive corn and pork regions of the country.

In addition to agricultural census information, the USDA Economic Research

Database files were consulted to understand the changing agricultural commodities market in the 19th century. In particular, corn prices were specifically considered. As previously stated, corn prices fluctuated from year to year throughout the second half of the 19th century. Some years the price was up, some years it was down, but the overall trend is in a downward direction until just before the turn of the century. Figure 5.11 presents the average price of corn for each year starting in 1866. Figure 5.12 presents this same price data compared to total quantity produced (Bushels of Corn), and average yield (Bushels per Acre). The inverse relationship between supply (Bushels of Corn) and price is clear between approximately1875-1900. This trend happens to coincide with the middle phase of site occupation, when Henry owned the farm.

In conclusion, macroeconomic cycles were identified by reconstructing the 19 century economy. Census mapping was used to identify core/periphery areas, and also

84 tracked changing core/periphery/semi-periphery relationships though time. These macroeconomic cycles definitely influenced the Huddleston families on the farm. Some early households benefited from favorable while others suffered from weak economic conditions.

CHAPTER 6 HISTORICAL CONTEXT: RECONSTRUCTING LOCAL ECONOMIC TRENDS

Details of a diachronic economic analysis involving John Huddleston and his neighbors are presented in the following section. This analysis used longitudinal data involving 40 years of statistics compiled from the U.S. Bureau of the Census (USBC)

Agricultural schedules. Diachronic trends were examined by quantifying the results of the census analysis. To establish relative wealth, the Huddleston family was compared to the local community average. Average landholding and production values were also considered. Not only are these factors commonly accessible in the documentary record, but they also are an excellent indicator of relative socioeconomic class in the study community (Groover 2003:85).

Methods

The first step in the agricultural census analysis was to locate the household on the enumeration sheet for each census year. These are located on microfilm at the

Indiana State Archives. The results were transcribed onto a data table. Next, 30 individuals were selected (15 listed immediately before and after) for the comparative data set (Groover 2003:86; Blanch 2007). Neighbors are often next to one another on the enumeration sheets, due to the order in which they were enumerated. Therefore, local and small-scale level trends were examined by using this type of sampling method.

92

Consequently, all comparative data was transcribed as well. The average land holdings, production amounts, and associated values were then determined. The average amounts as determined by arithmetic mean and standard deviation were calculated and then used for comparison. In doing so, the Huddleston household was compared to the local sample. In turn, the local sample was compared to state and national trends. Average production quantities were also used to identify primary commodities, or the farm products in which the majority of the sample was most aggressively engaged.

Several different categories from the census sheets were combined to determine wealth value. In 1850, the amounts for these categories were added to determine total wealth value: cash value of farm, value of farming implements, value of livestock, and value of animals slaughtered. In the 1860 census, the same categories were used, however, additional categories included: value of orchard products, value of home manufacturers, and value of market gardens. These additional categories were not present on the 1850 census. Likewise, the category, value of forest products, appears in

1870 and after, but not before. At any rate, these categories were added to determine the total wealth value of each member of the sample. Once a wealth value was determined for each individual, a local average was figured.

In addition to analyzing wealth data in relationship to that arithmetic mean and standard deviation, the sample was divided into wealth groups. Determining these groups consisted of plotting the wealth value totals on a scatter plot and then spatially identifying reasonable clusters. Likewise, the sample was examined to determine average landholdings and production quantities. Disproportionately large amounts of certain products identify primary commodities. Average production values of primary

93 commodities are also used to compare the sample through time. In addition, changes in average farm acreage among the sample can be compared to county, state, and national averages to evaluate compliance.

Wealth

To establish relative wealth status, the Huddleston family was compared to the local community average. Average landholding and production values of Wayne County, the state of Indiana, and the nation were also considered. These factors are commonly accessible in the documentary record and serve as an excellent indicator of relative socioeconomic class (Groover 2003). As previously mentioned, secondary source information states that Indiana farmers were heavily engaged in corn and swine production at surplus levels. The analysis of farmers from Jackson Township, Wayne

County, Indiana determines these farmers level of concurrence to this stated local trend.

The relative wealth status of the Huddleston household was evaluated in two ways: averaging and grouping. After determining total wealth value, the sample was divided into Upper, Middle, and Lower wealth groups. The Upper wealth group contains those households that are the wealthiest. The Lower group represents the least wealthy farms.

Results

In the 1850 census, the Upper Group contained those farmers who reported values between $ 3,000 and $8,000. Next, the Middle Group consisted of farmer who reported values between $1,000 and $ 3,000 . Lastly, farmers reporting values of less than $ 1,000 were placed in the Lower Group. The Upper Group has 6 members, or 20% of the sample, and comprises 66% of the total wealth. 8 members of the sample are placed in

94 the Middle Group, or 27% of the sample. The Middle Group accounts for 26% of the total wealth. The Lower Group contains 16 members, 53% of the total sample. The

Lower Group comprises 8% of the total wealth. According to the previously mentioned criteria, the Huddleston household would be placed in the Upper Group, with a total wealth value of $4,500.

In the 1850 census, the sample of Jackson Township farmers had a mean wealth value of $1,589 with a standard deviation of $2,154. Farms with a wealth value between

$1,588 and $0 are in first standard deviation below the mean. Those households with a wealth value between $1,590 and $3,742 are in the first standard deviation above the mean. Wealth value amounts between $3,743 and $5,867 represent the households that are two standard deviations above the mean. Therefore, with a wealth value of $4,500 in the 1850 census, the Huddleston household is in the second standard deviation above the mean in 1850. This distribution is presented in Figures 6.1 and 6.3.

In the 1860 census, the Upper Group contained those farmers who reported values between $13,000 and $6,000. Next, the Middle Group consisted of farmer who reported values between $6,000 and $2,000. Lastly, farmers reporting values of less than $2,000 were placed in the Lower Group. The Upper Group had 9 members, or 30% of the sample, and comprises 60% of the total wealth. 12 members or 40% of the sample are placed in the Middle Group. The Middle Group accounted for 33 % of the total wealth.

The Lower Group contains 9 members or 30% of the total sample and had only 7% of the total wealth. According to the previously mentioned criteria, the Huddleston household would be placed in the Upper Group, with a total wealth value of $6,812.

In the 1860 census, the sample of Jackson Township farmers had a mean wealth value of $4,652 with a standard deviation of $3,538. Farms with a wealth value between

$4,651 and $1,113 are in first standard deviation below the mean. Those households with a wealth value between $8,190 and $4,653are in the first standard deviation above the mean. Wealth value amounts between $1,112 and $0 represent the households that are two standard deviations below the mean. Wealth value amounts between $11,729 and

$8,191are households two standard deviations above the mean. Therefore, with a wealth value of $6,812 in the 1860 census, the Huddleston household is in the first standard deviation above the mean. This distribution is presented in Figures 6.2 and 6.3.

In the 1870 census, the Upper Group contained those farmers who reported values between $25,000 and $10,000. Next, the Middle Group consists of farmers who report values between $9,999 and $5,000. Lastly, farmers reporting values of less than $5,000 were placed in the Lower Group. The Upper Group has 9 members, or 30% of the sample, and comprises 61% of the total wealth. 6 members or 20% of the sample are placed in the Middle Group. The Middle Group accounts for 19% of the total wealth.

The Lower Group contains 15 members, 50% of the total sample. The Lower Group comprises 20% of the total wealth. According to the previously mentioned criteria, the

Huddleston household would be placed in the Middle Group, with a total wealth value of

$5,995.

Wealth value amounts between $19,847 and $13,787 were two standard deviations above the mean. Therefore, with a wealth value of $5,995 in the 1870 census, the Huddleston household is in the first standard deviation below the mean. This distribution is presented in Figures 6.4 and 6.6.

In the 1880 census, the Upper Group contained those farmers who reported values between $18,000 and $8,000. Next, the Middle Group consisted of farmers who report values between $7,999 and $4,000. Lastly, farmers reporting values of less than $3,999 were placed in the Lower Group. The Upper Group had six members, or 20% of the total sample, and comprises 44% of the total wealth. 11 members, or 40% of the sample were placed in the Middle Group which accounts for 37.5% of the total wealth. The Lower

Group contained 13 members, 43% of the total sample and only18.5% of the total wealth.

In the 1880 census, the sample of Jackson Township farmers had a mean wealth value of $ 6,065with a standard deviation of $4,319. Farms with a wealth value between

$6,064 and $1,746 are in first standard deviation below the mean. Those households with a wealth value between $6,066 and $10,384 are in the first standard deviation above the mean. Wealth value amounts between $14,704 and $10,885 represent households two standard deviations above the mean. Wealth value less than $1,785 represent households two standard deviations below the mean. This distribution is presented in

Discussion

The Jackson Township sample exhibited a noticeable trend regarding total wealth value. The average reported dollar amount of the farms in the sample continually increased from 1850 to 1870. The average total wealth value then decreased from 1870 to 1880. This reduction did not decrease the value to a level below that of 1860, however. Examining the trend of the total wealth value of the sample from the perspective of the least profitable farms revealed an optimistic trend. The amount which represented the first standard deviation below the mean continued to increase from 1850 to 1880. This amount increased from $0 in 1850, to $ 1,113 in 1860, to $1,664 in 1870, to $1,746 in 1880. In addition, the amount of the total wealth controlled by the Upper

Group remained disproportionate throughout the four decades. However, the level of this disparity fluctuated through time. In the first three decades of the study, the Upper wealth group accounted for 60% or more of the total wealth. However, according to the

1880 census that upper wealth group was responsible for only 44% of the total accumulated wealth value (see Figure 6.6).

Compared to this trend, the Huddleston family farmstead both deviates from and conforms to. Specifically, the Huddleston family‘s relative wealth value declined between 1850 and 1870 when compared to the sample mean. From 1850 to 1870 the average wealth value of the Jackson Township sample steadily increased. Because these are the only three decades on which the Huddleston farmstead was listed in the agricultural census, a direct comparison was made. The Huddleston wealth value increased from $4,500 in 1850 to $6,700 in 1860. The wealth value of the Huddleston farm then declined $5,995 in 1870. This decline in wealth value from 1860 to 1870 was

104 not reflected in the Jackson Township sample, quite the contrary. Evaluating the

Huddleston family against either the mean and standard deviation or wealth group placement reveals the farmstead continually declined with regard to relative wealth value.

Although the Huddleston farmstead did not appear on the 1880 census and cannot be compared directly, by adding this year to this sample, a more clear interpretation of local economic and agricultural conditions was made. For example, the trend of prolonged average wealth value increase was reversed. The average wealth value decreased as determined by the mean. Wealth group ranges were reduced to lower amounts compared to 1870 as well. For example, the Middle wealth group, which in

1870 included wealth group totals between $5,000 and $10,000, was reduced to $4,000 to

$8,000. Therefore, the overall trend in the Jackson Township sample consists of prolonged increase in average wealth value for the first three decades, followed by a moderate decrease in 1880 (see Figure 6.7).

Landholdings

In the following section, landholdings and production commodity amounts of the

Jackson Township sample, through time are presented. A local average to which the

Huddleston household can be compared was established. In addition, the level to which this local average conforms to county, state, and national trends was examined. This analysis considered both improved and total landholdings. In the census, property was generally divided into ―Improved Acers‖ and ―Unimproved Acers‖ (USBC 1850-1880).

Therefore, both are considered and compared in this analysis. The average improved acreage consistently increased through time. For example, in 1850 the mean value of

106 improved acreage was 29.6 acres. By 1880, the average improved acres among the

Jackson Township sample increased to 62.4 acres, and had steadily increased each of the previous decades. The average among the Jackson Township sample for total acreage followed a different path of trajectory. Between the first two decades of 1850 and 1860, the average total acres increase quite substantially from 92.2 acres to 159.5 acres. The average then dropped by over 100 acres in 1870. However, this value increased in 1880 to 77.5 acres. Because the total acreage is less of a representative of farm size, the values for improved acreage should be considered as a more accurate reflection of the actual farming condition. Notice that, when based on improved acreage, a clear trend of increasing average farm size over time was recognized in the Jackson Township sample

(see Figure 6.8 and Table 6.1).

The Huddleston farm size remains above the average based on improved acreage compared to the local sample. However, the number of average total acreage by the

Jackson Township sample was greater than the Huddleston landholdings in the first two decades of the analysis. The Huddleston farm acreage remained nearly equal, at 77 and

78 acres throughout the four decades of the analysis. In the 1870, the average total acreage of the Jackson Township sample dropped below the level of the Huddleston family. In the final decade, 1880, the average total acreage of the sample was almost identical to the Huddleston‘s at 77.5 acres. The Huddleston farmstead maintains a near equal number of acres throughout the four decade analysis. The number of improved acreage the Huddleston farmstead operated increased from 57 to 77 between 1850 and

1860, and then declined back to 57 acres in 1870. Therefore, the Huddleston farmstead maintained greater than average improved acreage compared to the Jackson Township

Township sample remained greater than the Huddleston farmstead in first two decades, and then dropped below the Huddleston acreage total in the final two decades.

Perhaps the most interesting insight provided by the local Jackson Township sample, regarding average farm size, involves its divergence from the national, state, and even county averages. Figure 6.8 and Table 6.1 present the average farm size of the

Jackson Township sample compared to the Huddleston House farm. Figure 6.9 and

Table 6.2 present average farm size data for the United States, Indiana, Wayne County, and the Jackson Township sample compared to the Huddleston in the mid 19th century.

Although the national and state average farm size consistently declined throughout the four decades, the Jackson Township sample actually reflected the opposite trend. The

Jackson Township sample continually increased farm size from 1850 to 1880. In Wayne

County, based on acres of improved land in farms, the average size also increased from

1850-1870, then dropped slightly in 1880 (USBC 1850-1870,). This trend deviated from the Gibbs farmstead in East Tennessee, in which the Knox County, the District sample, and the Gibbs family land holding showed a sustained decrease in landholding throughout this time period (Groover 2003:88-90).

The noticeable deviation of the Jackson Township sample from the comparative data requires further investigation. The number of total farms continually increased throughout the 19th century, as did the total number of acres involved in farming, both

110 throughout the nation and in the state of Indiana (USBC 1840-1880; Groover 2003;

Nation 2005). However, the number of farms increased at a greater rate throughout the century than the number of total acres, thereby decreasing the overall average farm size

(on a national level, and within the vast majority of the states). The fact that the Jackson

Township sample and Wayne County, in general, did not correlate to this trend was especially curious. Two factors contribute quite significantly to this trend. First, the total number of farms was considered. Second, the total land surface devoted to farming was examined.

The local number of farms remained nearly constant from 1850 to 1870.

Remarkably, in Wayne County, the number of farms consisted of 1,934 in 1850; 1,987 in

1860; and 1,989 in 1870. In a three decade period the total number of farms increased by only 55 farms. This was less than a 3% increase over a 30 year period. However, in

1880, the total number of Wayne County farms jumps to 2,572. This represents a 30% increase in only one decade. The average farm size in Wayne County only decreased 8% over the same decade (a 6.6 acre decrease from a 79.7 acre average). The fact that such a large increase in the number of total farms caused only a slight decrease in the average acreage per farm is significant. The 1880 Agricultural Census provides statistics which compare the total acres contained within a state to the total acres farmed. Indiana ranked second to Ohio in the highest proportion of land in farms to total land surface. Of

Indiana‘s approximately 22,982,000 acres, 88.9% were being farmed in 1880 according to the census. The significant increase in the number of farms between 1870 and 1880 in

Wayne County, coupled with the lack of vast amounts of available land contributed to the decrease in average farm size on the county level.

Commodities

Figure 6.10, Figure 6.11, Table 6.4, and Table 6.5 present the diachronic distribution of commodities produced by the Huddleston family and the Jackson

Township sample. Both livestock and crop commodities were considered. Figure 6.10 compares the average (mean) livestock commodities of the Jackson Township sample to the Huddleston farmstead (J. Hudd.). Each decade is represented by a bar graph which is chromatically divided to represent individual commodities. The solid red trend line represents the mean. The dotted black line represents the Huddleston household. Figure

6.11 is structured identically only the values represent crop commodities.

Several interesting trends are noticeable when considering livestock ownership by the Jackson Township sample of the mid 19th century. First, swine was the most heavily engaged in livestock venture throughout. Second, relatively no change occurred in the decade between 1850 and 1860 regarding the sample mean. Third, a noticeable decrease in swine and especially sheep was apparent in the 1870 sample. Fourth, the number of sheep dramatically increased in the 1880 sample mean. This issue is discussed in more detail shortly. Fifth, there was little fluctuation in the number of cows throughout the entire survey. This pertained both to the Jackson Township sample mean and the

Huddleston household as well. In the 19th century, before modern refrigeration, each household usually kept a couple of cows to provide dairy products to the family (Gibb

2009:84). The fact that both the sample and the Huddleston household remained nearly constant throughout the survey (at about 2 head) confirms this notion on the local level and would suggest these were not surplus commodities.

The Huddleston farm began the decade well above mean in livestock ownership (with the exception of sheep, which the Huddlestons never owned). In the first year of the sample,

1850, the Huddleston farm owned 35 swine, double the Jackson Township sample mean.

However, by the second decade, the Huddleston farm fell below the mean, both in swine and in overall ownership. By 1870, although livestock ownership by the mean decreased, the Huddleston farmstead remained below the average, owning a very modest number of farm animals. Owning only 2 cows, 2 horses, and 5 swine, the Huddleston household was not engaged in livestock production as a major source of income, but rather kept only what the family needed for sustenance.

As mentioned earlier, the average number of sheep owned by the Jackson

Township sample dramatically increased from virtually non-existent in 1870, 0.3 head, to

10.6 head in 1880. The Huddleston family did not own sheep. Beyond the scope of this thesis, investigation into this would make for the basis of an interesting study. Both Sally

McMurry (1995) and James Gibb et al. (2009) were able to link archaeological evidence to changes in agricultural traditions. A similar research design used in this thesis would be well suited for such a project. Using the concept of medium-range time to track the overall regional trend over perhaps a century long interval, and short-range time to isolate the transition, historical context could be gained. Then sites of former farmsteads that participated in the shift to sheep raising could be archaeologically sampled. This would possibly allow for links to be made from the archaeological evidence to specific households. This would be especially effective if sites with adequate time depth before and after the transition could be located.

115

Figure 6.11 and Table 6.5 present the data totals for crop production by the

Jackson Township sample and the Huddleston farm. Corn was the major crop commodity throughout the survey. The sample mean was the least productive in the first decade of the survey, 1850. Total production nearly doubled in 1860, and then remained relatively constant in 1870, before almost doubling again in 1880. Percentages of each crop to the whole remained fairly constant; meaning no great shift from one crop preference to another was noticeable. As was the case with livestock, crop production totals increase dramatically from 1850-1880. By the 1870 census, the Huddleston farm was producing at such a low rate, it is speculated that the Huddleston household were subsistence level producers, with nearly equal amounts of wheat, corn, oats, butter, and potatoes. The trend is fairly self-evident. The average commodities produced by the

Jackson Township sample continues to increased progressively through time, both in crop and livestock commodities while the Huddleston household continually produced less with each successive decade.

In addition to Agricultural Census statistics, probate and tax receipts were obtained and transcribed. Unfortunately, Wayne County does not possess individual inventories for 19th Century residents. However, the value of the estate is totaled and that figure is reported. John Huddleston‘s probate record was filed in the sum of

$10,000.00 on Monday September 17, 1877 (Wayne County Will Book 1877). In addition, the Inventory of the Real and Personal Property of Susannah Huddleston,

Insane Person, dated and notarized April 13, 1889, was obtained courtesy of the Indiana

Historical Society. The record indicates that Susannah was owed from several

In addition to probate records, tax receipts were obtained courtesy of the Indiana

Historical Society‘s William H. Smith Memorial Library. Tax receipts belonging to the

Huddleston family are curated in the Manuscripts and Visual Collections Department

(Huddleston Family Records: 2005). The values of both personal property and real estate were recorded. This allowed for a very accurate assessment of Huddleston wealth value through time. Figure 6.12 presents a diachronic analysis of Huddleston family wealth value. As indicated in Figure 6.12, several different forms of evidence were used which include agricultural census data, tax receipts, and probate records. All sources confirm that the wealth value of the household steadily declined throughout the second half of the

19th century.

In conclusion, a diachronic analysis of the Huddleston family wealth through time was presented. This information was obtained from primary historic documents and was used to gain insight into the relative wealth of the family. This information is used for both qualitative and quantitative purposes. When transcribed on a large enough scale, statistically valid datasets can be constructed, as was accomplished in this survey. Also, richly detailed contextual information can be obtained from these same primary documents which can be use to gain insight into household philosophy, strategy, and ideals. The results of this analysis will prove an invaluable tool from which the archaeologically recovered material culture can be interpreted. By gaining historical context pertaining to the decline in relative wealth of the Huddleston family, this information can be used better interpret the archaeological evidence.

CHAPTER 7 ARCHAEOLOGICAL ANALYSIS

The archaeological evidence from Huddleston House is described and discussed in this chapter. First, the archaeological evidence is used to reconstruct the landscape.

Architectural changes to the extant structures are also considered. Next, the field and laboratory methods are discussed. A comparative functional analysis, a ceramic description, and a time sequence analysis of the recovered artifacts are included.

Landscape Reconstruction

As previously mentioned, the Huddleston property was first purchased by John

Huddleston in 1839. It contained 77 acres of forested acres and had no structures

(Evolution of Huddleston Farmstead [EHF] n.d.). John Huddleston immediately began to alter landscape. A reconstruction of the historic landscape is presented in this section.

Archaeological and documentary evidence were used to describe the changes that took place during the Huddleston occupation. The map on Figure 7.1 illustrates the landscape at the Huddleston farmstead.

John Huddleston first built a small log house on the property in 1839. This log house was quickly disassembled, and the front hill graded. It was at this time that the first extant structure on the Huddleston farmstead was constructed, the bank barn, or yellow barn. In 1840, He began construction on the house and the several of the outbuildings

122 that would accommodate the needs of a farmstead and the National Road travelers (EHF n.d.). Approximately 100 wagons passed the Huddleston property daily and John sought to milk that proverbial cash cow.

John Huddleston used his property to invest in numerous and diverse business ventures. As previously stated, according to the 1850 agricultural census John

Huddleston had one of the most profitable farms in the Township. He also operated a store and rented travels rooms and kitchen space (EHF n.d.; Groover 2007, 2009). A campground and wagon yard was also available to the National Road travelers that passed by. Presently, several of the buildings associated with the original farmstead remain. The property contains the original federal style I house, the bank barn (or yellow barn), carriage shed (red barn), spring house and smoke house. In addition, a broom shop and recently discovered structure have been located on the landscape. Each of these buildings will be discussed.

Construction on the federal style I house was completed in 1841 (Reed 1972;

Wayne County Interim Report [WCIR] 2001:203). The bricks were fired in a kiln on the property. The house is built into the artificially graded north slope facing the National

Road. The house contains three stories, each of which serves a different purpose. The front, ground story served a public economic function. The center room of the ground floor contained the store. Flanked on both sides to the east and west were travelers‘ and quarters. These travelers‘ kitchens did not connect to the rest of the house.

The main floor above the shop consisted of four rooms. A formal parlor was situated to the extreme east side of the ground floor, a large family dining room in the center (Figure

7.4), an informal sitting room to the west, and a kitchen in the ell to the south of the

123 sitting room along the west wall of the house (see Figure 7.5). The third floor consisted of the family‘s bedrooms.

Originally a bell tower was on the kitchen ell. Also, a trap door led to stairs which entered the shop on the ground floor from the south. A center door on the north façade allowed travelers to enter the shop. This door was later removed and a window was installed in 1880 as part of a remodeling by Henry Huddleston (EHF n.d.). This is also thought to be time that the east and west kitchens were connected to the shop on the ground floor. The photograph in Figure 7.6 shows that the property was much further from the road. A two-tiered front lawn is noticeable, as well as an iron fence, sidewalk, small curb, trees, and functional shutters. Further renovation occurred to the house in

1930, when windows were added to the east and west wall of the former guest kitchens.

This was shortly after Charles died and Kenneth inherited the house (notice Figures 7.7 and 7.8).

Archaeological excavation in 1977 provided several clues which led to the ability to reconstruct the historic landscape. The excavation documented several features. South of the main house a small lean-to shelter was identified through stratigraphy and the discovery of a corner post. This structure was later reconstructed as it remains today.

The excavation in the yard south of the house also identified the remnants of a barrel- lined, buried refuse pit, an unused well, and evidence of small post holes which were used for a grape arbor in the yard south of the house. A photo from the 1890s confirms the location of the grape arbor. In addition, the 1977 excavation identified a former structure south of the yellow bank barn (Sasser 1977).

Construction of the bank barn was complete in 1839 and predates the house. The barn is approximately 50 x 30 feet. Today the original hand-hewn timbers which frame the barn remain. These beams are spectacular examples of early 19th century construction materials, many of which exceed 15 inches in width. During the 1977 excavation, a wagon and tool shed was discovered to have been attached to the south wall of the barn. However, stratigraphic evidence suggests that this structure was added to the barn after the original construction. This wagon and tool shed was 20 x 14 feet in size and accessed the 28 horse stall below through a steep staircase (see Figures 7.9 and 7.10)

After John Huddleston‘s death in 1877, Henry added the cupola to the barn and installed side vents. Sometime between the years of 1894 and 1904, dirt ramps and concrete retaining walls replaced the original log and plank ramps leading into the western entrance. In 1910 the stalls are removed while during the ownership period of Charles

Huddleston. A photograph from 1940 shows a building with a north facing gable in the area just south of the barn in the current parking area. A round metal corncrib stands next to this structure as well. This is the only known evidence of these buildings. The 1940 photo does not show the wagon and tool shed, suggesting prior removal.

West of the barn and southeast of the house is the location of the carriage house or red barn. The original structure measured 22 x 31 feet in size and contained a woodshed on the western end. In 1909 Charles Huddleston remodeled the carriage house adding 14 feet to the east. The eastern façade was reconstructed but some of the original materials were removed and replaced (EHF n.d.). In other words, the east side was taken off, then extended eastward and put back on.

Directly west of the carriage house is a reconstructed smokehouse. Years of neglect and deterioration made the structure unsafe in its original state. In 1978 with the help of funds obtained through a National Parks Service grant, the smokehouse was reconstructed. All salvageable materials were used in reconstruction. Detailed notes were taken during the deconstruction and a high level of attention was paid to ensure accurate reconstruction. The building measure approximately 10 x 20 feet in size. The family garden was located in the yard just south of the smokehouse.

To the northwest of the smokehouse and directly west of the kitchen ell of the main house is the springhouse, often called the milk house or dairy house. This structure is directly adjacent to the kitchen and was easily accessed by the residents. Also the runoff from the well would run downhill by way of a gutter system and collected in a trough along the National Road (EHF n.d.). The purpose was to provide water for the horses of the weary travelers. Hopefully, while they were stopped to rest, the travelers would purchase something from the store or stay for dinner or overnight. The wooden pump is not original, but is a historically accurate reproduction.

The springhouse contains a large eve on the gable side overhanging the pump.

The north and south walls of the porch are covered in lattice. The land west of the spring house was used as an herb garden. This is typical of a Quaker springhouse and the architectural style is similar to the spring house at Mendenhall Plantation in Guilford

County, North Carolina. Mendenhall Plantation was a non-slave operated farmstead owned by early 19th century Quakers. Currently Mendenhall Plantation functions as a museum similar to Huddleston House. The architecture at Mendenhall Plantation has been used a comparative analog to Huddleston House (Groover 2009).

Two additional structures which were present on the historic landscape, but which no longer exist will now be discussed. The first to be discussed is the broom shop, probably run by Levi Huddleston. This building is identified on the 1874 Mt. Auburn town map (Figure 7.17). This shop was located west of the house and herb garden. The second building was recently discovered through archaeological excavation. Fieldwork in

2002 (Zoll) and 2007(Groover) identified the probable location of the broom shop but failed to define the dimensions or construction date, method, or materials.

The final structure present on the historic landscape was discovered as a result of the 2007 Historical Archaeology field school at Ball State University, under the direction of Dr. Mark Groover. This building was located west of the smokehouse and south of the broom shop. The results of the previous 2002 shovel probe survey were used as a basis to begin the 2007 excavation. Although nearly1600 artifacts were recovered during the

2002 survey, no features were discovered. However, the artifact density distribution pattern strongly suggested the presence of a structure as indicated by the 2002 artifact density map created by Groover (Figure 7.18).

Objectives of 2007 Field School Excavation

The 2007 National Road Historical Archaeological Field School at Huddleston

House was helped made possible through an emersion grant from Ball State University.

It had several objectives. The primary goal of the excavation was to determine the location, dimension, and function of a former building referred to as structure 1 (Groover,

P.C.). In addition, the recovery of material culture encountered during the excavation of structure 1was of equal priority. Also, a secondary objective of the 2007 excavation was to assess the nature of the culture deposits in order to make future recommendations. All these goals were accomplished through archaeological sampling.

Field Methods

The field methods used to help locate the structure and recover artifacts began with a spatial analysis of the 2002 shovel test pit (STP) survey (Zoll 2002). The location and artifact density of each STP was quantified and used to produce the spatial artifact density distribution map. This information is presented in Figure 7.18. This spatial information was then used to determine the probable location of a structure. Then, test units were strategically placed above the areas of highest artifact concentration. Ten (10) test units were systematically excavated. The size of the test units were 3 x 3 feet (with the exception of unit 5 which measured 3 x 4 feet) and were excavated using thin levels of 0.20 feet in English engineer‘s scale. The units were excavated with trowels and the soil was screened through ¼ inch wire mesh. All cultural materials were segregated and bagged by provenience. Level depth was maintained throughout. A more detailed explanation of the excavation particulars is found in Appendix A (Technical Report).

Thin level excavation allows for time sequence analysis to be done on the artifacts contained within the unit. Time sequence analysis is a precise stratification method used in several different contexts throughout historical archaeology (Groover 1998, 2003,

2004, 2008; Blanch 2006). The particulars of time sequence analysis are discussed later in this chapter when laboratory methods are explained. However, this detailed level of analysis begins at the excavation/recovery phase. Although excavation (removal of stratigraphic layers) remains based on an arbitrary unit, the 0.2 foot interval is preferred.

This is approximately 2 3/8 inches which is about half of 10 centimeters.

Subsequent excavation discovered a fence post and foundation. The foundation measured 24 x 16 feet in size. Intact courses of brick set on the limestone foundation were encountered in the excavation. The construction materials and methods used in the structure seem to be identical to the main house suggesting a contemporaneous construction. As previously stated, more detailed excavation particulars are present in the

Technical Report in Appendix A.

Laboratory Methods

The first step in the laboratory analysis of the artifacts was to classify each artifact according to Stanley South‘s (1977) functional typology. The second step involved further classification of items within specific artifact groups. The final step was to perform a time sequence analysis on the artifacts. Therefore, initial artifact description and analysis are presented in the following section.

The artifacts recovered from both the 2002 and 2007 fieldwork were classified according to South‘s (1977) functional classification typology. One exception to the classification was made. To better understand the function of all artifacts at the

Huddleston House, an energy group was created to sort artifacts used in heating such as wood, wood ash, coal, slag, as well as gas and electrical hardware and components. The results of the functional classification for the Huddleston House assemblage are presented in Table 7.1 and Figures 7.25-7.28

Despite the difference in recovery context between 2002 (shovel test pits) and

2007 (excavated units), a fairly similar functional distribution occurs. A much greater percent of energy group artifacts was recovered in 2002. Likewise, more Kitchen group artifacts were present in the 2007 sample. This may be attributed to the nature of the survey and deposits.

A much larger horizontal spatial area was assessed during the shovel test pit survey. However, a much smaller percentage of the entire area within the survey boundary was sampled compared to the excavation units in 2007. Because excavation units were placed in a small, well defined area, and measure 3 x3 feet, a much larger percent of area within the survey boundary was sampled in 2007.

148

Therefore, this larger percent of energy group artifacts present in the shovel test survey of 2002 is perfectly normal. It is very possible that items such as coal, slag, and wood ash were more indiscriminately discarded and strewn more widely across the house lot. This would result in the recovery of greater numbers of energy group artifacts in shovel test surveys, which encompass larger horizontal areas. In addition, the excavated units sampled areas directly adjacent to structure 1. Undoubtedly, this location would have a higher potential for the presence of more concentrated archaeological deposits due to its proximity to activity areas around the structure. Therefore, slight differences in the percentages of artifacts by functional groups can be explained simply by the nature and location of the recovery context.

Regardless of the recovery context, the 2002 and 2007 functional classification pie graphs presented in Figures 7.26, 7.27, and 7.28 demonstrate an overall similar pattern. A distribution in which approximately 60% of the artifacts belong to the

Architecture group, and 30% belong to the Kitchen artifact group, with the remaining

10% disproportionately divided between the energy group, 7 %, and the Bone group, 3%.

The distribution and percentage of artifacts within functional classification categories can also be used to compare the Huddleston House to other sites throughout the region and nation. A comparison can be made between the Huddleston House, the

Moore-Youse house, and the Gibbs farmstead. The results of this comparative functional analysis are presented in Figures 7.29- 7.30. The Moore-Youse house was located in

Muncie, Indiana, less than 50 miles from Huddleston House. Although the property was within the city of Muncie, evidence suggests much of the yard functioned as an urban

150 farm lot (Blanch 2006:177). The Gibbs farmstead was located in Knox County, in East

Tennessee. Several generations operated the Gibbs farmstead for well over 100 years.

As previously stated, several archaeological investigations have taken place at the Gibbs farmstead (Groover 2003). Compared to the Moore-Youse house, the Huddleston House contained a much greater percentage of Kitchen group artifacts, in spite of recovery context. Also, much more bone was present at the Moore-Youse house, a fact used to demonstrate the point made earlier regarding the function of the yard as farm lot. This large percentage of bone is evidence of onsite butchering (Blanch 2006). Compared to the Gibbs farmstead, the Huddleston House has much fewer personal items. The Gibbs assemblage contains a fair number of items in the Clothing and Activities group. Notice in Figure 7.26, these items are virtually non-existent in the Huddleston House assemblage.

Ceramic Analysis

Ceramics are one of the most frequently analyzed archaeologically recovered materials (Yensh 1991:142). Both Old World and New, the study of prehistoric and historic peoples and cultures commonly use recovered ceramic assemblages to interpret behaviors. The analysis of the Huddleston House ceramic assemblage is presented in the following sections.

Materials

The materials examined for this analysis consist of the ceramic artifacts recovered at the Huddleston House site during the 2007 Ball State University historical archaeology field school excavation. A total of 2,388 artifacts were recovered, processed, and cataloged by Ball State University students as the result of an emersion grant. The bulk of

151 the assemblage consists of architectural artifacts (n=1,312). Artifacts belong to the

Kitchen group in South‘s functional classification system (1977:95). The purpose of this analysis was to segregate the kitchen artifacts recovered in the 2007 excavation and sort the ceramics (n=488) into meaningful categories of ware type, form, and decoration to reconstruct foodways.

Methods

The methods used in this analysis consist of sorting ceramics by ware type and function.. A brief explanation of the composition and definition of the individual ware types follows. These criteria were used to identify and classify the ceramics.

Utilitarian Ceramics

Redware

Redware is so named because of the red color of the body. It is composed of mainly clay which turns red upon firing (Sutton and Arkush 2009:209). Redware was among the earliest American wares (Stelle 2001; Blanch 2006:116). Redware was commonly used as a storage vessel. It is one of the most abundant and inexpensive wares and was typically produced locally (Stelle 2001; Blanch 2006:116; Groover 2008:41). Redware is often treated on the interior surface to aid in sealing the vessel due to its porous and unvitrified nature (Groover 2008:41). The surface treatment applied to the redware recovered at the Huddleston House site are lead glazed and salt glazed finishes. Often times crazing or cracking of the glaze is observed on redware vessels.

Stoneware

Stoneware is an extremely durable ceramic which often came in the form of jugs, crocks and other utilitarian and storage related vessels (Worthy 1982; Stelle 2001; Blanch

152

2006:126). Stoneware is characterized by a thick, heavy body. It is fired at a higher temperature compared to redware (Sutton and Arkush 2009:214, Stelle 2001). Surface treatments encountered in the Huddleston House assemblage include brown Albany slip, whitish Bristol glaze, and salt glazed.

Refined Ceramics

White Bodied Ware/ Ironstone

Ironstone was a very popular ceramic tableware during the second half of the 19th century. It dominated the middle-class market and was very sturdy, hence the name

(Sutton and Arkush 2009:214, Stelle 2001). A date range of 1840 to 1885 is given to heavy-bodied ironstone (Henry and Garrow 1982:466). Improved ironstone throughout the 19th century was often advertised as being ready for ―country trade‖ and became ever-present at frontier homes (Fontana and Greenleaf 1962; Collard 1967). Heavier, undecorated ironstone began to be replaced by relatively lighter-weight and more delicately decorated ironstone between 1870 and 1880 (Majewski and O‘Brien 1987:124)

Molded relief patterns were a very popular decoration among ironstone vessels.

Ironstone was often undecorated, however, transfer printing, decal, and painted decoration types did occur especially after 1870 (Majewski and O‘Brien 1982:123).

Whiteware

Whiteware and white ironstone are very similar (Stelle 2001). The popularity of whiteware began in approximately 1820 two decades before ironstone was developed

(Sutton and Arkush 2009:213-214). Whiteware is more porous than ironstone and can be distinguished through a ―tongue test‖. The whiteware is more ―sticky‖ compared to the ironstone (Stelle 2001). Whiteware was developed early in the 19th century as potters

153 began to add cobalt oxide to pastes and glazes (Lofstrom et al. 1982). Whiteware was almost always decorated (Majewski and O‘Brien 1987:120). The decoration associated with the whiteware at the Huddleston House was underglaze transfer print, overglaze decal, and painted ceramics.

Yellow ware

Yellow ware is earthenware consisting of a cream paste. It is often treated with a clear lead or alkaline glaze (Blanch 2006:119). Yellow ware vessels often take the form of serving containers, large bowls, and tankards (Sutton and Arkush 2009:214). The yellow ware ceramic sherds recovered at Huddleston House are all undecorated.

Porcelain

Porcelain is the most valuable of all the Huddleston House ceramics. It is defined by its translucent characteristic and its vitrified nature (Stelle 2001; Sutton and Arkush

2009:218). Porcelain occurs over a large temporal expanse and therefore is not an ideal time indicator. However, it can be used as an economic indicator (Miller 1980; Blanch

2006:129). Only one, undecorated porcelain sherd was recovered at Huddleston House.

Semi-Porcelain

Semi-Porcelain is the name given to a white bodied earthernware which is similar to porcelain but is not completely translucent or vitrified. They are semivitreous, light bodied, and high quality ceramics produced in the second half of the 19th century. After the Civil War these lightweight refined semivitrious and vitreous ceramics were produced by American manufacturers and competed with British imports (Cheek et al. 1983:103;

Majewski and O‘Brien 1987:115). Molded and transfer printed, specimens were among the decorated semi-porcelain sherds recovered from Huddleston House.

154

Pealware

Pearlware is a porous, off-white earthenware which contains a chalky paste (Sutton and

Arkush 2009:231). A clear glaze was often applied. Pearlware is thinner and less durable than later whiteware or ironstone. Pearlware will often contain a bluish cast. This is due to the cobalt which was added to mimic the look of Chinese porcelain (Mankowitz

1953:4; Blanch 2006:123; Sutton and Arkush 2009:231). Pearlware is a good temporal indicator due to its relatively early introduction (1780s) and peak popularity (1820s-

1830s). Pearlware was often given to later 19th century semivitreous wares that contain a bluish tint to the bodies but not the glaze (Miller 1980:3). All of the pearlware sherds recovered at the Huddleston House site are molded, shell-edged, and contain blue transfer printing. This was a very common style of pearlware in the early 19th century (Miller

1980:18; Stelle 2001; Blanch 2006:123; Sutton and Arkush 2009:231). Porcelain, semi- porcelain, and pearlware are the most expensive ceramics in the Huddleston House assemblage and most likely represent the finest tableware.

Decorated/ Undecorated (Surface Treatment)

After sorting the ceramics according to ware type, the decoration technique used on the sherds was tabulated. The following categories were use to define the type of decoration of the refined ceramics: transfer print, decal, painted, molded/scalloped, and shell edge. In addition, the various surface treatments used to glaze the utilitarian ceramics were noted. The following surface treatments were observed: salt glaze, lead glaze, Bristol glaze, and Albany slip.

Results

The results of the sherd count are presented in Table 7.2. The associated pie graph (Figure 7.31) shows the percentage of each ceramic type. White bodied ironstone sherds constitute the highest percentage of the assemblage, followed by whiteware. Very few extravagant ceramic types are represented. As Figure 7.32 and Table 7.3 indicate, refined ceramics outnumber utilitarian vessel nearly 3:1, 354 and 134 respectively.

Oddly, among the utilitarian ceramics, this same 3:1 ratio also exist between the number of stoneware to redware sherds (Figure 7.33). Among the refined ceramics, Ironstone white bodied ware comprises nearly 60% (Figure 7.34). After segregating the ceramics into type, the refined ceramics were described according to decorative style. The utilitarian ceramics were likewise tabulated according to surface treatment. The bulk of the refined ceramics were undecorated. A ratio greater than 6:1 of undecorated (n=307) to decorated (n=46) sherds was noticed. Data pertaining to decoration is presented in

Figures 7.35 and 7.36 as well as Table 7.5.

More information was ascertained from the sorting of the utilitarian ceramics with regard to surface treatment. As Table 7.4 shows the most prevalent surface treatment applied to the Huddleston House assemblage was Albany slip and salt glazed. In addition, nearly 3/4 of the vessel sherds are treated. This was less significant than the large number of undecorated refined ceramics compared to the undecorated ones.

Surface treatment on utilitarian ceramics serves a functional purpose, to seal the vessel.

Decoration on a refined ware on the other hand was merely for that, decoration.

In addition, a hollow ware/flat ware analysis and an examination of vessel form and function are presented in the following section. Analysis of the ceramic artifacts yielded a total of 145 indeterminate pieces that could have been either hollow or flat. Of the ceramics that could be determined, flat tableware outnumbers hollow ware 50 to 11.

Stoneware was not included in this count because all of the stoneware is believed to be hollow storage vessels of varying types. Most of the ceramics recovered in the 2007 excavation were tableware sherds. Very few pieces of redware were recovered. The recovered redware sherds were from storage rather than serving vessels.

Time Sequence Analysis

Using time sequence analysis to date archaeological sites and deposits has several advantages. To begin, it allows for a diachronic perspective. This allows for recognition of trends and patterns in the archaeological record which are simply not visible with other methods of analysis. Whereas reliance on a singular mean date essentially compresses all data, time sequence analysis allows for an artifact distribution to be calculated on a time line. Also, because of this time-depth quality, archaeological deposits can be directly linked to a particular household within the line of succession. Therefore, changes in architecture and the landscape can be matched to individual households. Different archaeological assemblages, associated with different time periods throughout the occupation can be compared (Groover 2003:202-5).

The artifacts recovered from the 2007 excavation were analyzed using time sequence analysis. First, the units were excavated in thin section levels. As previously stated, the preferred level depth interval at historic site is 0.2 feet which is approximately

161

2 3/8 inches. This was the depth interval used at the 2007 Huddleston House excavation.

Next, a mean artifact date (MAD) was calculated for each level. This step was accomplished by assigning a date, based on the mean date of manufacture, to each temporally diagnostic artifact. Mean dates used in this analysis are presented in

Appendix E. A total mean date was derived by combining the values of all the mean artifact dates within a level, multiplying by the total count for each type, and then dividing by the overall total of combined temporally diagnostic artifacts.

After the mean artifact date (MAD) was calculated for each level, the third step was to chronologically sort each level regardless of the unit from which it came. Fourth, the MAD of each level was assigned to the specific decade, for example, the 1860s,

1870s, 1880s, and so forth. Fifth, the numbers of artifacts per type within each decade level were totaled. Sixth, these decade interval results were plotted on a timeline to show artifact distribution over time.

The results of a time sequence analysis of the Huddleston House artifact assemblage are presented in the following section. Figure 7.37 presents the results of the time sequence analysis. The greatest artifact densities were deposited in the 1880s and

1890s. A large spike in the distribution curve occurred during this time period. Very low artifact densities were deposited before or after this time. Time sequence analysis distribution data for different artifact groups and items are presented in Figures 7.38 -

7.43. Therefore, the archaeological remains sampled in 2007 surrounding structure 1, appear to have been most densely deposited in the 1880s and 1890s during the occupation of Henry Huddleston.

162

Once the artifact distribution data curve is plotted, fluctuations of different artifact patterns through time can often be identified (Groover 2003). As previously mentioned, the changes along the distribution curve often correlate to documented household succession events (Groover 2003). Specifically regarding the Huddleston House assemblage, it is quite clear that the majority of the sample was deposited following

1880. This would strongly suggest that these deposits post-date the occupation of the

John Huddleston household. Because of the relatively short time interval associated with these deposits (only a couple of decades) compared to the known time depth of the

Huddleston family occupation (nearly 100 years), the deposits likely are the major result of a singular household. Figures 7.44 and 7.45 review household succession and compare the time sequence data to the household size, respectively

As shown in Figure 7.45 the early and later occupation periods are not well represented on the artifact density timeline. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the time sequence method, flat window glass and nails are considered.

Flat Glass

Randall Moir (1987) examined the importance of window glass as a temporally diagnostic artifact at 19th century sites. The overall trend of increasing window glass thickness through time occurred during the 19th century (Roenke 1978; Moir 1987:75).

Window glass thickness corresponds with specific manufacture dates. The manufacture dates corresponding to thickness measurements are presented in Appendix D. Therefore,

169 all pieces of flat glass were measured using digital calipers to determine the thickness and manufacture date.

Figure 7.46 shows the distribution of window glass based on only the quantity per manufacture year. A peak in the curve appeared from 1860-1910. All decades in a 140 year time interval were well represented, as well. No decade was extremely over represented; however several peaks along the distribution curve were noted. The first increase occurred near 1840 when the building was constructed by John Huddleston. The next increase occurred in the 1870s. This peak represents a renovation of structure 1 and coincides with the beginning of the Henry Huddleston ownership period. The final increase in window glass occurred in the late 19th to early 20th century, during the

Charles Huddleston occupation. Using time sequence analysis on window glass provided a more refined chronology and was useful in identifying the razing of structure 1

(Groover 2003). Figure 7.47 presents the time sequence analysis of window glass. The large increase in glass during the final decades of the 19th century was noted. By using the mean dates of all temporally diagnostic artifacts associated within the thin section, much more sensitive and accurate dating was possible. Recovered window glass quantity dropped dramatically after this period. Therefore, during the Charles Huddleston occupation, near the turn of the century, structure 1 was most likely razed. In conclusion, window glass was used to link household succession to construction episodes. Moreover, time sequence analysis was used to identify the likely razing of structure 1

Nails

Another example of a more refined chronology provided by time sequence analysis from the Huddleston artifacts was with nails. The 2007 excavation at

Huddleston House recovered 417 temporally identifiable nails. This analysis sorted the nails into two categories: machine cut nails and wire nails. The mean date of machine cut nails is 1860, and wire nails is 1935 (Nelson 1968: Edward and Wells 1993:17-18;

IMACS 1984; Groover 2003). Table 7.6 and Figure 7.48 present the quantity of nails per type. Wire nails outnumbered machine cut nails 264 to 153, respectively. The mean manufacture date of all combined nails equaled 1907.5. Time sequence analysis of the nails predicted construction and razing events. Time sequence analysis showed the majority of the nails were deposited between 1880 and 1900 (see Figure 7.49).

Wire nails represent 63% of the total nail assemblage and machine cut nails, 37%.

William H. Adams (2002) developed a probability curve to determine construction dates at 19th and 20th century sites based on the percentage of machine cut nails. Buildings constructed in the early decades of the 19th century used machine cut nails exclusively.

However, often times wire nails make up a significant percentage of the nail assemblage at these sites. This is the result of ―extensive repairs made to it [the building] later‖(Adams 2002:75). Adams states that reliable dates for construction and renovation are usually 15 to 20 years earlier than the dates suggested by the manufacturing curve.

This results from manufacturing dates being much earlier than the date they were deposited at a site (Adams 2002:75). According to the manufacturing curve, structure 1

on the Huddleston property, with approximately 37% machine cut nails, underwent a major construction event in approximately 1893. However, as mentioned,

15 to 20 years should be subtracted, according to Adams, for a more accurate date. This dated the renovation to between 1873 and 1878 (see Figure 7.50). This was around the time of John Huddleston‘s death, in 1877, and during a transition in the ownership of the farmstead.

Time sequence analysis of the nails provided an even more accurate prediction of the renovation and razing of structure 1. As Figure 7.49 illustrates, time sequence analysis shows the majority of the deposition occurred between 1880 and 1900. Due to the dramatic decrease in nail density within the deposits after this period, structure 1 was likely destroyed shortly after 1900.

Architectural group artifacts provided several clues to the construction, renovation, and destruction events of structure 1. Fluctuations in window glass quantities over time were used to identify construction episodes near 1840, 1870, and 1900. Adams

(2002) probability curve of cut nail percentages was used to identify a major construction event on structure 1 between 1873 and 1878. Time sequence analysis of window glass and nails strongly suggest structure 1 was razed in the first decade of the 20th century.

Charles Huddleston purchased the farmstead in 1906. Charles was likely responsible for razing structure 1.

Window glass and nails demonstrate the usefulness of time sequence analysis.

Time sequence analysis was especially useful in linking specific landscape events and archaeological assemblages to particular households throughout family succession. At

Huddleston House, time sequence analysis was used to address this research topic.

Therefore, the time sequence analysis of the artifacts proved to be an excellent tool for linking household succession to changing landscapes and material conditions.

In conclusion, functional analysis of the artifacts recovered in the 2007 excavation showed that they are mainly architectural items and kitchen artifacts. Nails and window glass constitute the bulk of the architectural items. Ceramics can be generally defined as undecorated white bodied ware and stoneware. Personal items were rarely encountered.

Based on time sequence results, maintenance decline occurred in the rear yard during the

Levi and Henry Huddleston period of site occupation. Based on the context and materials deposited around structure 1, its eventual destruction occurred in the early 20th century.

CHAPTER 8 SECONDARY ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

This chapter exams secondary levels of archaeological analysis and interpretation.

First, the results of faunal analysis are discussed. Next, flatware and hollow ware ratios are re-examined in greater detail. Comparative ceramic economic scaling, and changes in ceramic preferences through time are also discussed. Further examination into the function of structure 1 is also presented. Finally, the concept of maintenance decline is examined. The results of this further inquiry allow for optimal contextual insight.

Specific answers to the research question are confidently answered through this analysis and interpretation. In addition this secondary analysis provides rich qualitative information. This information provides ―an aesthetic appreciation of and an empathy with the human condition‖ (Deagan 1982:155). A perspective sometimes lost in ―a view stressing economic production or belief systems painted with a broad brush‖(Brandon and Barile 2004:6) rather than one focusing on ―the practical actions of daily life‖(Prader

1993:114).

The faunal remains recovered from the Huddleston House excavation of 2007 were analyzed by Dr. S. Homes Hogue, biological anthropologist at Ball State University in May, 2009. The faunal remains were first identified and then weighed. The remains

177 were then grouped by decade level according to the dates resulting from the time sequence analysis.

The results were tabulated by number and weight, and then graphed according to the percentage of that weight to the total. Each decade was considered. Table 8.1 presents the inventory of the faunal remains by provenience. The results of the identification are displayed on Table 8.2-Table 8.4, as well as Figures 8.1 and 8.2.

Domesticated mammals were classified as mostly pork, but also cattle. Wild mammals were either deer, or other identifiable wild mammal species. Chickens and domesticated turkey represent the Domesticated Aves category. Wild aves species include either wild turkey, pheasant, or quail.

The most significant trend of the faunal analysis was a noticeable shift from both wild and domesticated faunal resources in the first two decades (1870 and 1880) to the complete absence of wild faunal remains in the 1890s. This would strongly suggest an exclusive reliance on domesticated species in the last decade of the century.

Interestingly, no transition in property ownership occurred during this time. However, this was the final decade of the Henry Huddleston occupation. Household size was relatively low. In addition, only two of nine Arms group artifacts were deposited in levels dating 1890s or later. This suggests that more hunting occurred prior to 1890. By the 1890s, Henry was becoming elderly and many of his sons had grown and moved away from the farmstead. Perhaps the residents of the Huddleston farmstead were hunting much less than had occurred in the previous decades. This would help to explain the dearth of Arms group artifacts and absence of wild faunal remains in the 1890s deposits.

178

This shift from a mixed subsistence strategy to one totally dependent on domesticated animal resources is particularly interesting considering the decade in which this shift occurred. In Chapter 6 when production commodities were discussed, it was noted that the Huddleston farm experienced a shift in production performance during the three decade survey. In the beginning of the 19th century, the Huddleston farm outperformed the average in crop production and livestock ownership. However, by the last year of the study, the Huddlesons produced an agricultural suite that was diverse, but not abundant (Figures 6.10 and 6.11). With such a small level of production, it is not likely that a surplus existed for sale to markets. The products of the farm, therefore, were most likely used solely by the household. This was a major shift in food production for the Huddleston farm. The shift from mixed, to exclusively domesticated faunal resource exploitation, was a similar trend. The agricultural census data correlates to the faunal assemblage due to the similar shift in food production and dietary preference in the final decade of the 19th century. These similar trends reinforced the validity of both data sets.

In addition, this information is extremely useful in the reconstruction of past foodways at the Huddleston House. Four independent lines of evidence are used to reconstruct the diet and dinning of the Huddleston household: agricultural census data, ceramic analysis, faunal remains, and also the landscape. The Huddleston household had a diet more diverse in meat dishes in the first half of the century. Both wild and domestic mammal species, as well as chicken and turkey were prevalent. Likewise, agricultural

products such as milk, butter, potatoes, corn, and oats were prevalent in the Huddleston diet. Because the farm was producing above average values, surplus for both the family and markets would have existed.

In the later decades, less farm surpluses and less diverse meat resources became the new trend. However, a diet with a heavy reliance on pork remained constant throughout. Wild resources supplemented the Huddleston diet in the early decades, but not in the later. Because such low agricultural surplus production occurred in the later decades of the Huddleston occupation, and overall wealth decreased through time, it is speculated that the overall diet of the Huddleston household became less diverse.

The dining habits of the Huddleston household are presented in the following section. In addition to determining the types of meals eaten by the Huddleston family, the manner in which they were prepared and served is of interest. As previously stated in

Chapter 7, a flat ware to hollow ware ratio was calculated using the ceramic sherds.

Table 8.5 and Figure 8.3 present this data. Nearly a 5:1 ratio of flatware to hollowware defines the collection.

Otto (1984) used this technique with the ceramics at Cannon‘s Point Plantation,

Georgia to study ethnicity, economic position, and status. Vessel form was used to interpret foodways. Ratios of flatware to bowl were recognized by Otto to be strongly influenced by ones social and economic status. The author found that the more affluent, the higher percentage of flat tableware (such as plates and serving platters) appeared in

183 the archaeological assemblage (Otto 1984). The reverse was also true. A disproportionate number of bowls reflected low economic status individuals. This pattern

was recognized and reflected at many other sites (Deetz 1977; Baker 1980; Smith 1983,

Groover 2003). This phenomenon has been used to correlate vessel form to economics, diet and foodways. Consumption of meals from primarily bowls suggest a diet dominated by soups and stews, while an assemblage favoring flatware vessels suggests meals were served on plates, likely consisting of portioned meals rich in meat .

Therefore, the Huddleston family probably had a diet rich in pork, corn, potatoes, milk, and bread made from wheat. Meals were likely served and consumed on flatware vessels with milk and butter from the cow to spread on the bread. The meals would have been well seasoned with the fresh herbs that were grown just outside the kitchen door in

184 the herb garden. The smell of smoked pork would fill the air coming from the smokehouse.

Ceramics have also been used to interpret wealth and expenditure as well. George

Miller (1980, 1991) introduced an economic scaling system to discern relative wealth and also intra-site expenditure rates, for example between cups, plates, and bowls. He also created a set of values for ceramics based directly from potters‘ wholesale prices of the

17th, 18th, and 19th century (1980, 1991). Yentsch (1991:143) has argued that dependence on ceramic scaling ―de-emphasizes the role of women in colonial society‖.

However, the author does admit that these analytical methods can be used to elicit information about lifestyle, consumer choice, and resource allocation (Yentsch 1991).

Amy Earl et al. (1993) modified the system created by Miller into a four tiered system. This was used by Blanch (2006:166-8) in the analysis of Moore-Youse ceramics.

Table 8.6 compares the Huddleston House to the Moore-Youse ceramics

TABLE 8.6. Economic Huddleston Huddleston Huddleston Moore- Scaling (Earl et al. 1993).

Tier 4 (transfer-printed) 4 / 4% 20 / 5.5% 24 / 5% 58 / 18%

Directly comparing the 2007 ceramic assemblage to the Moore-Youse was somewhat problematic. To begin, the midden sampled in the 2007 Huddleston excavation associated with structure 1 dated to the final decades of the 19th century. The

185 absence of transfer-printed ceramics may be the result of the midden date. Transfer prints were most commonly used from the 1820s to the 1860s (Majewski and O‘Brien

1987:141-6). After that, transfer-prints became less prevalent and were replaced by decal decorated ceramics by the early 20th century (Wegars and Carley 1982:7). The midden associated with structure 1 at the Huddleston farmstead was dated to the second half of the 19th century, after transfer-printed ceramics lost popularity. Time sequence analysis of the Moore-Youse ceramic assemblage revealed that the deposits sampled there were most densely deposited in the 1850s to the 1870s (Blanch 2006:175). In addition, both shovel test pit and unit excavation data were considered in the Moore-Youse analysis

(Blanch 2006:106-111). Therefore, the 2002 shovel test pit data was re-examined in order to provide a more complete ceramic sample and more information regarding earlier ceramics not recovered from the structure 1 midden. The ceramics from the shovel test pits had more edge decorated and molded ceramics. However, very few tier three or tier four sherds were recovered (Zoll 2002). When combined, the 2002 and 2007 ceramics showed a very different distribution than the Moore-Youse assemblage.

When comparing the combined Huddleston ceramic assemblage to the Moore-

Youse, the Huddleston ceramics were not nearly as valuable as those recovered from the

Moore-Youse excavation. By separating the Huddleston House ceramics into categories based on decoration, much information was inferred. Clear patterns such as the distinct preference for undecorated vessels emerged. This was significant because it not only begged questions related to consumer choice and resource allocation, but was also used to examine compliance and conformity to religious ideals. The Huddlestons were Quakers.

The dearth of lavishly decorated or expensive ceramics suggests that the outward

186 expression of plainness was important to maintaining their identity as Quakers.

Likewise, the frequency of ironstone, with its durable qualities, suggests that ceramics were selected and preferred according to practicality, not luxury.

Another factor to bear in mind when considering the value of the Huddleston ceramic assemblage is economics. Perhaps ideology had an important role in determining the choices the Huddleston family made concerning ceramic preference and purchase. However, practicality and frugality should not be overlooked. Market access would have made for a variety of choices. The Huddleston House is in the small town of

Mt. Auburn, but plenty of ceramics would have been available for purchase. Perceived geographic isolation is not the same as commercial isolation, (Adams 1927:3; Boorstin

1958:107; Baugher and Venables 1985:33) and therefore, it should be assumed that the

Huddleston household had a variety of ceramics from which to choose. Market access had more to do with economics and social factors than location (McCusker and Menard

1986:303). Although the ceramic assemblage shows a strong preference toward undecorated and least expensive items, it should not be directly assumed that this was due exclusively to Quaker plainness. In addition to ideology, economics should also be considered a determining factor regarding ceramic choice. Recall that the decades from which the majority of the artifacts were deposited were summarized by increased economic hardships. This was true both at the household and global scale. The

Huddleston family suffered economic decline during the final decades of the 19th century as demonstrated by agricultural census and tax records. The 1890s witnessed global economic depression with the Panic of 1890 and 1893. This brought about widespread business failure, high unemployment, strikes, and extreme financial disorder (Hoffman

187

1970; Whitten 2001). For farm families like the Huddlestons, conditions were especially difficult (Whitten 2001). Examination of the refined ceramic assemblage reflects these economic hardships.

The large frequency of ironstone in the 1870‘s and 1880‘s deposits reflects a clear preference. Ironstone was an expensive ceramic with many indexes ranking it near or equal to some transfer printed whiteware in value (Freeman 1954; Miller 1980; Cook

1982; Spencer-Wood 1984; McBride and McBride 1987). Despite having few expensively decorated items, the Huddleston family owned many high-quality items that were plain in appearance. Moreover, careful observation of the time sequence data reveals an interesting pattern with regard to the ironstone distribution. As Figure 8.4,

Figure 8.5, and Table 8.7 indicate, ironstone is the most prevalent ceramic in 1880.

However, from 1880 to 1890 the number of ironstone sherds dramatically drops.

Ironstone is replaced with whiteware as the refined ceramic tableware of choice. The decrease in ironstone deposits coincides with the decrease in Huddleston wealth in the last decades of the 19th century. This high level of congruence between the archaeological and documentary record demonstrate the importance and necessity of both. Also, the evidence strongly suggests a link between specific archaeological assemblages and household succession.

Therefore, the ability to identify the specific household most responsible for the deposition of artifacts was successful. Most successful, however, was the ability to rule out the early household as the main contributor to the archaeological deposits. The archaeological assemblage from the 2007 excavation was most likely associated with the middle phase of the Huddleston period. As previously mentioned, it was during this time

188 that the family experienced economic decline both in wealth and commodities production. A mixed subsistence strategy, in which both wild and domestic faunal resources were exploited, shifted to exclusive reliance on domestic animals. A change in ceramic preference occurred between 1880 and 1890 as well.

Decline was also visible on the landscape. In addition to the deteriorated condition of the smokehouse which was reconstructed in 1977, structure 1 fell into disrepair and eventually was razed. Increased density of architectural group artifacts according to time sequence analysis suggests structure 1 was razed in the late 1890s to the early 1900s. In addition, time sequence dating of the other archaeological deposits confirms that they were deposited in the later occupation periods. As previously mentioned, John Huddleston operated a store and inn for National Road travelers. In an attempt to generate business, John Huddleston would have presumably sought to keep things tidy around the farm. With frequent people in and out, and a household numbering as many as 11, it would have been more necessary to segregate waste. This is a likely reason for the absence of early phase deposits in the sample area around structure 1. As previously mentioned, the artifacts suggest that Structure 1 was probably an outdoor kitchen or was used to quarter guests. Leslie Stewart-Abernathy has written about the dual function of many outdoor kitchen s in the South. African-American slaves were often forced to use kitchens as dwellings (Stuart-Abernathy in Barlie and Brandon

2004:61) If this dual function were true of the Huddleston House structure 1, then it would help to explain the dearth of items recovered from the early phase. It is probable that travelers made a light footprint on the landscape, leaving behind little evidence of their presence. Couple this with the notion that refuse and waste was segregated to keep the area clean for guests, and the lack of dense early phase deposits becomes very reasonable.

Structure 1began to serve the needs of the household directly and exclusively as time progressed. After John died and Henry began operating the farm, he made several

191

renovations in an effort to imprint his own personality on his surroundings. In addition,

travelers and guests did not frequent the farmstead as they had done in the past.

As a result, less attention was paid to upkeep and repairs. Refuse was more

liberally strewn about, the accumulation of which resulted in the archaeological record.

In addition, Figure 8.6 is a photograph taken near the turn of the century. Notice the ivy

growing up the side of the house. The white paint has chipped away from the brick

exterior and the shutters are no long attached.

This photograph typifies the state of the farmstead during the middle and late

phases. The farm was no longer extremely profitable. Wealth, agricultural production,

and general property maintenance were declining during this time. At this same time

FIGURE 8.6. Photograph taken in the late 1890s (courtesy of Wayne County Assessor).

192 ceramic and dietary changes also occurred, according to archaeological evidences.

Therefore, Chapter 8 has combined the bulk of the research into meaningful statements about the Huddleston House throughout the nearly century long family occupation. The evidence suggests the Huddleston family experienced decline in wealth throughout the 19th century that carried over into other facets of their lives. In conclusion, this interpretation is used in Chapter 9 to readdress research questions, make recommendations, and comment on perceived contributions of this research.

193

CHAPTER 9 CONCLUSION

The research presented here attempted to answer questions pertaining to articulation of households to the larger global system, and how visible this articulation is in the archaeological record at the household level. Simply stated, John Huddleston and his heirs were indeed heavily engaged in the world economy. This level of aggressive involvement in the global economy (at least in the agricultural commodities sector) began to steadily decrease. The later generations did not sell surplus crops, and were almost completely reliant on domesticated animals for food, much of which had to be purchased.

This trend is opposite of the local sample which continued to increase in wealth and commodities production.

The Huddleston family was engaged in the production of numerous agricultural activities including corn, oats, wheat, and potatoes. Likewise, this level of production fluctuated through time, as did the design of the house lot and landscape. Furthermore, careful analysis of the artifacts provides archaeological evidence that directly links assemblages to specific households.

Using multiple spatial and temporal scales to analyze the evidence, optimal insight was gained. From a world systems perspective, core/ periphery relationships were established with Indiana operating as member of the periphery at this time, in which

194 extractive industries defined land use practices. The Huddleston family paralleled this trend. However, the level of congruence fluctuated over time. In the early phase of the

Huddleston site occupation (1840‘s-1860s), the farmstead is producing mass quantities of surplus agricultural products while ―The Jeffersonian ideal of a predominantly agrarian democracy was realized by the Hoosiers during the pre-Civil War decade‖(Carter 1946:

108). The other members of the community were producing only small quantities at this point. Curiously, when the local trend reflects greater surplus production, the Huddleston family was engaged in subsistence level agriculture. This illustrated an opposite trend than the local community. Therefore, the Huddleston family deviates significantly from the local trend.

Contributions

This thesis provides a number of positive contributions to farmstead archaeology.

Foremost, the thesis adds to the current state of knowledge pertaining to several academic subjects such as: the local economic history, agricultural trends, and artifact patterning.

In addition to academic contributions, the thesis can be used as a tool to better inform the public.

The research design outlined in this thesis lends itself to comparative analysis between other historic sites. Because of the diachronic dimension of the Huddleston farmstead, comparisons of numerous temporal associations can also be made.

Furthermore, information obtained through agricultural census, tax records, and probate information presented in this thesis can easily be used as a comparative database for further research.

195

In addition to the comparative potential, the thesis also contributes to the current state of knowledge for farmstead archaeology in the Indiana and the Midwest. Very few east-central Indiana historic farmsteads have been investigated archaeologically.

Therefore, this thesis contributes greatly to the understanding of 19th century Indiana economic trends, foodways, and life. Because the property is listed on the National

Register of Historic Places, and is maintained and managed as a museum, the thesis will contribute to public education. Thesis results and conclusions will also be forwarded to administrative officials and curators at the Huddleston farmstead. This data can then be used to more accurately inform the public.

Recommendations

Due to the sensitive nature of the cultural deposits still unexamined at Huddleston

House, future construction and landscaping should only be done after consultation with a qualified professional archaeologist. Archaeological sampling suggests more undisturbed deposits exist on the property. The role of the Huddleston House as a museum allows for protection of those cultural resources, meaning extensive excavation in the near future is neither urgent nor desired.

Due to the minimally invasive nature of pedestrian transect reconnaissance; the cultivated field directly south of the house lot should be sampled. This is the area known to be used as a wagon yard and campground for guests. Moreover, with only a modicum of ground surface visibility, the area could be relatively quickly and easily surveyed to

196 assess the presence or absence of cultural materials. In addition, the area along the railroad could be closely examined to locate foundations of former buildings.

APPENDIX A: TECHNICAL REPORT

The 2007 National Road historical archaeology field school was conducted at Huddleston House (12-Wy-10) in May and June of 2007 under the supervision of Dr. Mark Groover. The objectives of the excavation included investigating the dense midden identified in the 2002 shovel probe survey (Zoll 2002), identify the location, size, form, and function of a former outbuilding, and recover and identify related material culture encountered during excavation.

Investigating the midden feature identified during the 2002 survey was the initial step in the 2007 excavation. The location and density of each shovel probe tests was plotted on an artifact density diagram. Figure A.1 indicates a large area of high density probes. Although several shovel probes contained artifacts, the majority of high density probes were concentrated in one area. Armed with this information, the field crew strategically placed ten (10) test units.

A large dressed limestone foundation with intact bricks was discovered. The structure was referred to as Structure 1. In addition, a fence post was discovered during excavation. Therefore, the excavation results are discussed in this section.

UNIT 1: N426/W80 (SW Grid Corner Coordinate)

Level 1- Level 1 consisted of a dark brown clay loam soil of the Losantville silt loam association (LbB2). In the northwest quadrant of the unit a wood ash deposit and soil disturbance were present. Ceramics, flat glass, curved glass, brick, mortar, and bone were all recovered from Level 1. The mean artifact date of the artifacts contained within a Level 1 is 1880.

Level 2- Level 2 consisted of a dark brown clay loam soil of the Losantville silt loam association (LbB2). Slight gray soil modeling was noted. The brown clay loam is lighter in color relative to Level 1. Ceramics, flat glass, curved glass, nail, brick, and mortar were all recovered from Level 1. The mean artifact date of the artifacts contained within a Level 2 is 1888.

Level 3-The soil in Level 3 begins to change from dark brown loam to light tan clayey loam. Large architectural items such as brick fragments were especially present throughout the north half of the unit. Ceramics, curved glass, nails, flat glass, metal, mortar, and bone were also

214 recovered in level three. One sherd of blues shell edged embossed pearlware was recovered from Level 3. Limestone fragments were found at the base of level 3. The mean artifact date of the artifacts contained within Level 3 is 1888.

Feature 1: Feature 1 was located in Unit 1 and consisted of a posthole containing a wooden locust post from a former fence line. Feature 1 was located in the northwest quadrant of Unit 1, the center point of which lying approximately 1‘ south of the north wall and 0.7‘ east of the west wall. The post measured approximately .3‘ (3.5 in) in diameter. The top of the post was less than 0.1‘ below the ground surface and extended 2.3‘ into the posthole. The southern half of the posthole fill from Feature 1was excavated to a depth of 2 feet below the base of level 3. The fill excavated from the southern half of the posthole of Feature 1 was approximately 1.2‘ in diameter east to west. Among the fill in the posthole were several rocks and brick fragments. Dark brown clay loam describes the soil fill throughout the feature.

UNIT 2: N 426/ W 86 (SW Grid Corner Coordinate)

Level 1- Level 1 consisted of a dark brown clay loam soil of the Losantville silt loam association (LbB2). Pieces of mortar, a feather, coal slag, and a percussion cap were among artifacts contained within Level 1. However, an insufficient amount of time sensitive artifacts were recovered from level 1, therefore a mean artifact date was not calculated.

Level2- The dark brown clay loam described in level1continued throughout level 2. Ceramics, curved glass, flat glass, break, mortar, nails, and bone were recovered from level 2. The mean artifact date of the artifacts contained within a level 2 is 1888.

Level 3- A similar dark brown clay loam described in levels 1 and 2 was encountered in level, as well. In addition, a light tan colored clay loam subsoil was encountered in Level 3.Ceramics, flat glass, curved glass, nails, brick, mortar, and bone were all recovered from Level 3. Observed disturbances within Level 3 consist of several tree roots. The mean artifact date of the artifacts contained within a level 3 is 1889.

UNIT 3: N447/ W 89 (SW Grid Corner Coordinate)

Level 1- Level 1 consisted of a dark brown clay loam soil of the Losantville silt loam association (LbB2). The beginning and end depth of Level 1 were ground surface to 0.2 feet below ground surface, respectively. Ceramics, flat glass, brick, mortar, and several pieces of limestone foundation rubble were all recovered from Level 1. In addition, the several pieces of limestone

215 predicted the presence of probable feature. Tree roots were noted throughout, but most severe in the southeast quadrant. The mean artifact date of the artifacts contained within a Level 1 is 1895.

Level 2- The dark brown clay loam described in Level1continued throughout Level 2. The beginning and end depth of Level 2 were 0.2 feet below ground surface to 0.4 feet below ground surface, respectively.

A similar dark brown clayey loam soil was contained throughout Level 3 which was described earlier. Brick, mortar, limestone, coal, and burnt wood were contained within Level 4. Level 4 lacked time sensitive artifacts; therefore a mean artifact date was not determined.

Feature 2, Structure 1-Several large limestone foundation stones were discovered in Unit 3. Feature 2, Structure 1 consists of three (3) large limestone foundation blocks measuring: 1) 1.0‘x 0.7‘, 2) 1.1‘ x 0.6‘, and 3) 1.0‘ x 0.9‘. Several smaller pieces of limestone rubble are also present. In addition, stones of various varieties associated with the foundation are present throughout.
