DOHERTY, JR. N THE FALL OF 1940 a young South Carolinian with a brand- new doctor’s degree in history from the University of North Carolina appeared among the new faculty members at the Uni- versity of Florida in Gainesville. Rembert Wallace Patrick had begun his long and warm association with Florida, its people, and its history. In the small, north Florida college town the youthful historian energetically devoted himself to his work and soon won the devoted following of students and the affection and respect of his colleagues. Though he was a practical, down-to-earth man, he quickly revealed a dry, often irreverent sense of humor. De- spite his newness to the University of Florida, young Professor Patrick was not an inexperienced teacher. He came to Gainesville from Meredith College in North Carolina where he had taught history while completing his Ph.D. degree. Earlier he had been employed for several years in the public schools of South Carolina. Born in Columbia, South Carolina, on June 9, 1909, Rembert Patrick was raised in that state and educated in its public schools. Following the remarriage of his widowed mother, how- ever, he moved with his mother to Poughkeepsie, New York, while in high school and graduated there in 1926 from the Oakwood School. Returning south to North Carolina, he enrolled at Guilford College and received his bachelor’s degree in 1930. After a brief stint as a stock clerk in New York City where, by his own account, he worked in the “china (not expensive) department of the S. S. Kresge Company, he accepted appoint- ment to the staff of the high school in North, South Carolina. There he taught mathematics and doubled as football coach. 1 The young scholar spent the 1933-1934 academic year in Chapel Hill, winning his master’s degree in history from the Uni- versity of North Carolina. He also won the favor of a Connec- ticut Yankee, Eleanor Grace Bangs, whom he had met while 1. “Rembert W. Patrick,” an autobiographical outline in the files of Department of History, University of Florida. The author is indebted to Mrs. Rembert W. Patrick and Rembert W. Patrick, Jr., for aid and advice in the preparation of this article. [ 305 ] 306 FLORIDA HISTORICAL QUARTERLY both worked at a summer resort during their undergraduate days, and in December 1933, they were married. Returning in the same year to North High School, he served for two years as its principal. Following the bent of his intellectual interests, however, he resumed his graduate study in Chapel Hill in 1936 and in 1940 earned his Ph.D. degree in American history un- der the direction of Fletcher M. Green. In the fall of that year, “Pat” and “Egie” with their first-born son, Rembert, Jr., arrived in Gainesville, Florida, counting themselves fortunate that he had received an appointment as assistant professor of social sciences at the University of Florida. Though young Professor Patrick’s appointment for the first ten years of his association with the university was in the department of social sciences, he taught history courses as well as the general education social sciences course, a fairly common procedure at the University of Florida. In 1941, the family was enlarged with the arrival of a daughter, Sharon, and in 1943 the younger son, John, was born. Rembert Patrick showed early promise as a publishing schol- ar. In 1941 his doctoral dissertation, “Jefferson Davis and His Cabinet,” won an award from the United Daughters of the Con- federacy, and upon its publication in 1944 it received the Bohnenberger Award as that year’s best book by a southern- born author. In 1962 it was added to the permanent library of the White House. In Florida, he realized that there was no read- ily-available state history of reliable quality, and arrangements soon developed for a brief volume, Florida Under Five Flags, to be published as the first venture of a new University of Florida Press. 2 As this work progressed, James Miller Leake, head profes- sor of history and political science, entrusted to Professor Patrick a course in Florida history which Leake had initiated. In the course of his work, the South Carolinian quickly discovered that the resources for research in Florida history were scarce and dif- ficult of access. As a matter of fact, the best collection of materials was a private one assembled by P. K. Yonge, longtime member and chairman of the university system’s Board of Control, and his son Julien in Pensacola. As Rembert Patrick pursued this research, he and Julien Yonge became fast friends, and their re- lationship was an

    1 CENTER FOR FLORIDA HISTORY ORAL HISTORY PROGRAM INTERVIEW WITH: HOMER HOOKS INTERVIEWER: JAMES M. DENHAM PLACE: LAKELAND, FLORIDA DATE: JULY 29, 2003 M= JAMES M. DENHAM (Mike) H= HOMER HOOKS M: Today we are interviewing Mr. Homer Hooks and we are going to talk today about the legacy of Lawton Chiles and hopefully follow this up with future discussions of Mr. Hooks’ business career and career in politics. Good morning Mr. Hooks. H: Good morning, Mike. M: As I mentioned, we, really, in the future want to talk about your service in World War II and also your business career, but today we would like to focus on your memories of Lawton Chiles. Even so, can you tell us a little bit about where you were born as well as giving us a brief biographical sketch? H: Yes, Mike. I was born in Columbia, South Carolina, on January 10, 1921. My family moved to Lake County actually in Florida when I was a child. I was 4 or 5 years old, I guess. We lived in Clermont in south Lake County. My grandfather was a pioneer. He platted the town of Clermont. The rest of the family also lived north of Clermont in the Leesburg area, but we considered ourselves pioneer Florida residents. Those were the days in 1926, ‘27 and ‘28 days and so forth. I grew up in Clermont - grammar school and high school and then immediately went to the University of Florida in 1939 and graduated in 1943, as some people have said, when the earth’s crust was still cooling, so long ago.

Smith 2 To my mother, who generated my fascination for all things historical 3 ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to thank Jon Sensbach and Jessica Harland-Jacobs for their patience and edification throughout the entire writing process. I would also like to thank Ida Altman, Jack Davis, and Richmond Brown for holding my feet to the path and making me a better historian. I owe a special debt to Jim Cusack, John Nemmers, and the rest of the staff at the P.K. Yonge Library of Florida History and Special Collections at the University of Florida for introducing me to this topic and allowing me the freedom to haunt their facilities and guide me through so many stages of my research. I would be sorely remiss if I did not thank Steve Noll for his efforts in promoting the University of Florida’s history honors program, Phi Alpha Theta; without which I may never have met Jim Cusick. Most recently I have been humbled by the outpouring of appreciation and friendship from the wonderful people of St. Augustine, Florida, particularly the National Association of Colonial Dames, the ladies of the Women’s Exchange, and my colleagues at the St. Augustine Lighthouse and Museum and the First America Foundation, who have all become cherished advocates of this project.

  • The Church Militant: the American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92
    The Church Militant: The American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92 Peter W. Walker Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2016 © 2016 Peter Walker All rights reserved ABSTRACT The Church Militant: The American Loyalist Clergy and the Making of the British Counterrevolution, 1701-92 Peter W. Walker This dissertation is a study of the loyalist Church of England clergy in the American Revolution. By reconstructing the experience and identity of this largely-misunderstood group, it sheds light on the relationship between church and empire, the role of religious pluralism and toleration in the American Revolution, the dynamics of loyalist politics, and the religious impact of the American Revolution on Britain. It is based primarily on the loyalist clergy’s own correspondence and writings, the records of the American Loyalist Claims Commission, and the archives of the SPG (the Church of England’s missionary arm). The study focuses on the New England and Mid-Atlantic colonies, where Anglicans formed a religious minority and where their clergy were overwhelmingly loyalist. It begins with the founding of the SPG in 1701 and its first forays into America. It then examines the state of religious pluralism and toleration in New England, the polarising contest over the proposed creation of an American bishop after the Seven Years’ War, and the role of the loyalist clergy in the Revolutionary War itself, focusing particularly on conflicts occasioned by the Anglican liturgy and Book of Common Prayer.

  • The Shadow of Napoleon Upon Lee at Gettysburg
    Papers of the 2017 Gettysburg National Military Park Seminar The Shadow of Napoleon upon Lee at Gettysburg Charles Teague Every general commanding an army hopes to win the next battle. Some will dream that they might accomplish a decisive victory, and in this Robert E. Lee was no different. By the late spring of 1863 he already had notable successes in battlefield trials. But now, over two years into a devastating war, he was looking to destroy the military force that would again oppose him, thereby assuring an end to the war to the benefit of the Confederate States of America. In the late spring of 1863 he embarked upon an audacious plan that necessitated a huge vulnerability: uncovering the capital city of Richmond. His speculation, which proved prescient, was that the Union army that lay between the two capitals would be directed to pursue and block him as he advanced north Robert E. Lee, 1865 (LOC) of the Potomac River. He would thereby draw it out of entrenched defensive positions held along the Rappahannock River and into the open, stretched out by marching. He expected that force to risk a battle against his Army of Northern Virginia, one that could bring a Federal defeat such that the cities of Philadelphia, Baltimore, or Washington might succumb, morale in the North to continue the war would plummet, and the South could achieve its true independence. One of Lee’s major generals would later explain that Lee told him in the march to battle of his goal to destroy the Union army.

  • Black-Indian Interaction in Spanish Florida
    DOCUMEPT RESUME ED 320 845 SO 030 009 AUTHOR Landers, Jane TITLE Black/Indian Interaction in SpanishFlorida. PUB DATE 24 Mar 90 NOTE 25p.; Paper presented at the AnnualMeeting of the Organization of American Historians(Washington, DC, March 24, 1990). PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) --Historical Materials (060) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *American Indian History; *Black History; *Colonial History (United States); Higher Education; *Indigenous Populations; Secondary Education; *Slavery; State History IDENTIFIERS *Florida ABSTRACT The history of the lives of non-white peoples in the United States largely has been neglected although the Spanish bureaucrats kept meticulous records of the Spanish Mission period in Florida. These records represent an important source for the cultural history of these groups and offer new perspectives on the tri-racial nature of frontier society. Africans as well as Indians played significant roles in Spain's settlement of the Americas. On arrival in Florida the Africans ran away from the," captors to Indian villages. The Spanish, perceiving an alliance of non-white groups, sought to separate them, and passed special legislation forbidding living or trading between the two groups. There were continuous episodes of violence by the Indians who resisted Spanish labor and tribute demands, efforts to convert them, and changes in their social practices. Villages were reduced to mission sites where they could more readily supply the Spaniards with food and labor. Indian and black surrogates were used to fight the English and helped build the massive stone fort at St. Augustine. The end of the Spanish Mission system came with the war of 1700, English forces from the Carolinas raided mission sites killing thousands of Indians and taking many into slavery.

He is survived by his sister, Madge Lane Cooke. Cooke was born in Baltimore, Maryland, July 20, 1887. He was a bachelor. He received the degree of Bachelor of Arts from Johns Hopkins University in 1908 and Ph.D. (in geology) in 1912. From 1911 to 1912 he was a Fellow at the university. In July 1910, while a grad­ uate student, he received an appointment as Junior Geologist for summer work in the U.S. Geological Survey, beginning his long career in that organization. In the U.S. Geological Survey, he was Assistant Geologist, 1913 to 1917; Paleontologist, 1917 to 1919; Associate Geologist, 1919 to 1920; Geologist, 1920 to 1928; Scientist, 1928 to 1941; Senior Scientist, 1941 to 1951; andGeologist-Stratigrapher-Paleontologist, 1952 to 1956.

He was geologist in the Dominican Republic for the Geological Survey in 1919 and worked for the Tropical Oil Company, Colombia, South America, in 1920. After completing his 40 years of service in the U.S. Geological Survey, Cooke retired on November 30,1956. Also in 1956 he received the Meritorious Service Award of the Interior Department in recognition of his outstanding service.
