  • Bibliography of North Carolina Underwater Archaeology
    i BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH CAROLINA UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY Compiled by Barbara Lynn Brooks, Ann M. Merriman, Madeline P. Spencer, and Mark Wilde-Ramsing Underwater Archaeology Branch North Carolina Division of Archives and History April 2009 ii FOREWARD In the forty-five years since the salvage of the Modern Greece, an event that marks the beginning of underwater archaeology in North Carolina, there has been a steady growth in efforts to document the state’s maritime history through underwater research. Nearly two dozen professionals and technicians are now employed at the North Carolina Underwater Archaeology Branch (N.C. UAB), the North Carolina Maritime Museum (NCMM), the Wilmington District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), and East Carolina University’s (ECU) Program in Maritime Studies. Several North Carolina companies are currently involved in conducting underwater archaeological surveys, site assessments, and excavations for environmental review purposes and a number of individuals and groups are conducting ship search and recovery operations under the UAB permit system. The results of these activities can be found in the pages that follow. They contain report references for all projects involving the location and documentation of physical remains pertaining to cultural activities within North Carolina waters. Each reference is organized by the location within which the reported investigation took place. The Bibliography is divided into two geographical sections: Region and Body of Water. The Region section encompasses studies that are non-specific and cover broad areas or areas lying outside the state's three-mile limit, for example Cape Hatteras Area. The Body of Water section contains references organized by defined geographic areas.

C. 27602 BOGGAN-HAMMOND HOUSE DEDICATED May 9 was the date of the dedication of the Boggan-Hammond House in Wadesboro and of the Cedar Creek Meeting House in Lilesville. The resto­ rations have been continuing projects of the Anson County Historical Society. Dr. H. G. Jones was the main speaker for the dedication ceremonies; Mr. Linn D.

  • Abstract Postmortem Archaeology: Reinterpreting Salvaged Sites Using the CSS Neuse As a Case Study by Chelsea Hauck April 2016 Director: Dr
    Abstract Postmortem Archaeology: Reinterpreting Salvaged Sites using the CSS Neuse as a Case Study By Chelsea Hauck April 2016 Director: Dr. Bradley Rodgers Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies Traditionally, salvaged wreck sites are disregarded by academia because contextual data are lost without detailed measured site maps. When these sites are ignored, the information that can be gained from individual artifacts and the collection as a whole is lost. Archaeologists have attempted to recreate salvaged sites to rediscover that contextual information. This thesis will examine a new set of methods called “postmortem” archaeology which will be applied to the American Civil War wreck of the CSS Neuse, which is the largest single collection of artifacts from a Confederate vessel. There are four issues affecting contextual data that have arisen since the salvage of the CSS Neuse wreck site: 1) how the ship was scuttled, 2) contamination by additional artifacts during excavation, 3) looting of artifacts during excavation, and 4) the timeline of the removal of the cannons. These four issues will serve as examples of broader problems that affect salvaged sites and possible methodologies that can be used to recreate the site. The “postmortem” methodology used to study the CSS Neuse can then be broadened and applied to other salvaged sites.

  • Governors' Papers
    Governors’ Papers 1 R. Gregg Cherry GOVERNOR ROBERT GREGG CHERRY, 1944-1949, n.d. Arrangement: By record series or subject, then chronological. Reprocessed by: James Mark Valsame Finding aid by W. F. Burton, January 8, 1949 Digitized by: James Mark Valsame Date: May 31, 2012 Robert Gregg Cherry (October 17, 1891 – June 25, 1957), Post-World War II governor of North Carolina and speaker and long-time member of the North Carolina House of Representatives, was born at Catawba Junction, near York, SC, to Chancellor Lafayette and Hattie Davis Cherry. His mother died when Cherry was one year old and his father, a farmer and Confederate veteran, six years later. Cherry was sent to Gastonia, just across the state line, to live with his maternal grandfather, pioneer Gastonian Isaac N. Davis, and his uncle, Henry M. Lineberger. Cherry attended the public schools of Gastonia and then was graduated from Trinity College in 1912. He completed a law degree at Trinity College in 1914, winning the Judge Walter Clark prize as the highest ranking student in the graduating class. Returning to Gastonia, he established a law practice with Alfred Lee Bulwinkle, long-time friend and future congressman from the area. When the United States entered World War I in 1917, Cherry delighted in organizing among men in the Gastonia area a machine gun troop of the First North Carolina Cavalry, which he trained and commanded during service overseas. He always took great pride in having developed a group of local men into a fighting cadre. His interest in the military continued after the war, and he maintained membership in the National Guard until 1924.

  • The Archaeology of North Carolina: Three Archaeological Symposia
    The following chapter is from: The Archaeology of North Carolina: Three Archaeological Symposia Charles R. Ewen – Co-Editor Thomas R. Whyte – Co-Editor R. P. Stephen Davis, Jr. – Co-Editor North Carolina Archaeological Council Publication Number 30 2011 Available online at: http://www.rla.unc.edu/NCAC/Publications/NCAC30/index.html FORTY YEARS BENEATH THE WAVES: UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY IN NORTH CAROLINA Richard W. Lawrence Over the past forty-five years, North Carolina‘s underwater archaeology program has undergone dramatic growth. For its first decade the program consisted of one or two staff members operating a modest preservation laboratory on the grounds of the Fort Fisher State Historic Site. By 2006, the state‘s Underwater Archaeology Branch (UAB) boasted a ten-person permanent staff located at three separate facilities in eastern North Carolina. The growth of the program has been an evolutionary process. Like its natural counterpart, that process has progressed in fits and starts largely influenced by external events. Some of the program‘s turning points include the salvage of artifacts from sunken Civil War blockade- runners in the 1960s, the discovery of the USS Monitor off Cape Hatteras in 1973, integration into the state‘s archaeology and historic preservation program in the 1980s, and, most recently, the 1996 discovery of a shipwreck at Beaufort Inlet believed to be the pirate Blackbeard‘s flagship, Queen Anne’s Revenge. At each of these junctures increased levels of interest from the public, the media, and administrators in Raleigh allowed the UAB to expand its capabilities and the scope of its mission. WEIGHING ANCHOR – 1962 TO 1972 The Blockade-Runner Modern Greece North Carolina‘s initial involvement with historic shipwrecks came about quite by chance.

  • 3000 Inactive Hazardous Sites
    Report to the North Carolina General Assembly on the Division of Waste Management’s Inactive Hazardous Sites Program North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Division of Waste Management http://deq.nc.gov/about/divisions/waste-management/superfund- section/inactive-hazardous-sites-program October 2016 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY The N.C. General Assembly created the Inactive Hazardous Sites Program in the Department of Environment and Natural Resources’ (DENR) Division of Waste Management (DWM) to identify, investigate and clean up properties contaminated with hazardous substances. The program also manages the assessment and cleanup of old pre-regulatory landfill sites that have environmental contamination and that predate modern landfill standards designed to prevent contamination. This report satisfies the requirements, set out in G.S. 130A-310.10, for an annual report to the General Assembly. A total of 3,112 chemical spill or disposal sites and old, unlined dumps or landfills (pre- regulatory) have been cataloged. Of this number 2,548 still require work to address public health or environmental hazards. Of the 2,548 remaining open cases, 669 are old, unlined landfills that predate solid and hazardous waste permitting laws. By state law, approximately 45 percent of the proceeds of a statewide solid waste disposal tax is directed to address contamination at these pre-regulatory landfills. DWM has established contracts with private firms to assess and remediate the pre- regulatory landfill sites. DWM has started a pilot study of an alternative privatized method of state-funded assessment and remediation of four pre-1983 landfills, to evaluate ways to improve efficiency and reduce cost.
