Blake Dunnavent A fter days of tedious excursions in the miserable humidity of 1\.. Florida's Everglades, LieutenantJohn T. McLaughlin decided to return his disabled and ick to their i land base. The ailors, now several years into the Second Seminol War, had become phys ically overwhelmed by the wet condition, biting insects, and swampli£ around them. Moving through terrain typified by"continuou por­ tage over tump and cypres knee with occasional glimp es of open water," the healthier of McLaughlin' men continu d their assignment, paddling their mall canoes to search out ign of en­ emy activity. Excitement arose as three canoes were di covered con­ cealed in the undergrowth, but the force did not locate any Indians. When given orders to proceed to the coast, the men found a renewed strength as they maneuvered their own boats away from the anxiety of riverine warfare.' Lieutenant McLaughlin's experience in the final months of the Second Seminole War provide an example of th develop­ ment of a naval tactical doctrine for the operations in Florida's riv­ erine environment. Drawing upon a pects of riverine operation originated in the American Revolution (including hara sing fire, R. Blake Dunnav nt i assistant profe or of history at Lubb ck Christian niv rsity. 1.

Research Notes Admin info Download xml version print version (pdf) Read collection overview A long-time member of the English Department at the University of Albany, Barbara Rotundo was a 1942 graduate in economics at Mount Holyoke College. After the death of her husband, Joseph in 1953, Rotundo became one of the first female faculty members at Union College, and after earning a master's degree in English at Cornell University and a doctorate in American Literature from Syracuse University, she served as an associate professor of English at the University of Albany, where she founded one of the first university writing programs in the United States. Avocationally, she was a stalwart member of the Association for Gravestone Studies, helping to broaden its scope beyond its the Colonial period to include the Victorian era. Her research included the rural cemetery movement, Mount Auburn Cemetery, white bronze (zinc) markers, and ethnic folk gravestones. Her research in these fields was presented on dozens of occasions to annual meetings of AGS, the American Culture Association, and The Pioneer America Society. In 1989, after residing in Schenectady for forty-six years, she retired to Belmont, NH, where she died in December 2004. Consisting primarily of thousands of color slides (most digitized) and related research notebooks, the Rotundo collection is a major visual record of Victorian grave markers in the United States.

    THE BEVIER FAMILY THE DESCENDANTS OF LOUIS BEVIER, Patentee of New Paltz, New York Compiled by KENNETH E. HASBROUCK A revision and continuation of "The Bevier Family", by Katherine Bevier, 1916 Published by The Huguenot Historical Society, New Paltz, New York, Inc. 1970 IN APPRECIATION This book has been delayed due to the fact that a genealogist who respects the excellent results of another person's efforts in the past, tends to be hesitant in pro­ ducing a new work, which must measure up to the standards so capably followed by Miss Katherine Bevier in 1916. However, forty-four years have par -ed, and as I worked on the manuscript, it was definitely evident that a new book would be twice the size of the original "Bevier Family", and Miss Bevier had been hampered by the advent of World War I. The members of the Bevier Family have been a constant inspiration. They have been interested and most cooperative. They have shown in many ways that they wanted a new genealogy. It would be impossible to list all of the people who have contributed material for this work. In a number of instances it has been necessary to complete lines of descent that go back to the third generation. Mrs. David Koch of Terre Haute,Indiana;Mrs. Lois Pennie Knapp of Duluth, Minnesota; Miss Annette I.
