  • Lustron Corporation Steel Houses Peter Lobner, 15 June 2020 The
    Lustron Corporation steel houses Peter Lobner, 15 June 2020 The Lustron Corporation was formed in 1947 by Carl Strandlund, in collaboration with Chicago Vitreous Enamel Corporation, to mass- produce steel-constructed housing after World War II (WW II). The name “Lustron” refers to the factory-applied, lustrous, permanent porcelain enamel finish on all steel components. Lustron received an initial $15,500,000 loan from the Reconstruction Finance Corporation (RFC) to mass-produce steel pre-fabricated houses in a former Curtiss-Wright aircraft factory in Columbus, OH, with more than 1,000,000 square feet of manufacturing floor space. After WW II, steel was a rationed material controlled by the Department of Commerce. There was only a limited allocation for “non-essential” use, such as manufacturing pre-fabricated homes, and Lustron received a large share of that allocation. The only 2-bedroom Lustron “Esquire” prototype model. It was built in Hinsdale, IL. Source: http://instanthouse.blogspot.com 1 Lustron homes were FHA approved and financed. The customer could choose from three production models, Winchester, Newport and Meadowbrook, which could be ordered with 2- or 3-bedroom floor plans. The Winchester could be ordered in “Standard” or “Deluxe” finish. Representative Lustron floor plans. Source: Screenshot from video, “The History of the Lustron House,” Raleigh Historic Development Commission All houses came standard with porcelain enamel-coated steel exterior panels available in four colors: surf blue, maize yellow, desert tan, and dove gray. The houses also had an enamel-coated steel shingle roof, enamel-coated steel interior wall panels most often in a standard light grey color, metal ceiling tiles, interior pocket doors, metal cabinets, and service and storage areas.

MALLETT Maine Crusades and Crusaders, 1830-1850 Soon after John Winthrop disembarked from the Arbella in 1630, he expressed the desire to see the Massachusetts Bay Colony build a city upon a hill that would promote the greater glory of God, and serve as a model for all mankind. Emphasizing as it would the sovereignty of God and a pious approach to community problems, this transplanted religious group was envisioned as develop­ ing an unprecedented sobriety of manners and purity o f morals. Some two hundred years later, it was obvious that Winthrop’s hopes had been somewhat excessive, but some descendants of the early Massachusetts settlers showed the same burning desire to know the will o f God as had the early colonists. The main difference was that in the nineteenth century the moral and religious zeal of the Puritans frequently took the form o f social reform and utopianism.

  • Abel Fowler 1 Was Born in Rhode Island, USA in About 1781
    Over 200 years of the Fowler Family: The Fowlers, Eddys, Gridleys, Parrishes, etcetera This document is part of the story about the Fowler family of Gratiot and Isabella Counties in central Michigan and their roots in America. Another portion of the story involves the ancestors of Nellie Pearl Brooks (1873-1960), wife of Anson James Fowler and daughter of Elisha Hall Brooks (1818-1891) and Laura Jane Bartlett Brooks (1830-1908). We have broken this branch off into its own document which you can find at http://MelissaCravenFowler.com [choose “Tom’s Ancestry” tab]. You will also find other materials there, such as descendent charts. This story is about the Fowler family of Gratiot and Isabella Counties of central Michigan. It began with the “innocent” question, asked in 2005: “Who was the first Fowler of our line in North America?” Family lore passed down to us states that “Fowler brothers” escaped England for the New World for political reasons. This sounds a lot like the genealogical “fairy tale” which many families have in their oral histories: the quintessential “three brothers” story. In truth, many of those stories are true, as people tended to come to America in groups -- and many in family groups. So far, however, we have not been able to corroborate this in our case, mostly because we do not yet know who our Fowler immigrant-ancestor was! A family story that a Fowler initially was part of the Wells-Fargo stagecoach line has largely been disproved 1, as has the story’s variation that one of the Fowler brothers changed his name to Fargo and was the multiple-great-grandfather of the founder of the stagecoach line.
