    Route 66 in Oklahoma: a Historic Context Review

    Route 66 in Oklahoma: A Historic Context Review A Perspective on Topics and Sources for Archives Collections and Oral History Studies This document suggests topics and ideas for additional research along Oklahoma’s portion of Route 66. Primarily, the review is intended to assist researchers collecting information about Route 66 by collecting oral histories and organizing research projects. This outline may also be used to encourage the preservation of archival materials and artifacts. The topical headings are random in order. I. Waterways crossing or near Route 66 A. The waterways that crossed or came very near the roadway including bridges, ferries, low water crossing, and other roadway features that are related to waterways. Waterways were the most important landmark for early native travelers and for early explorers. The same waterways continue to be important for the obstacles for the original and later roadways. 1. Neosho/Grand River 2. Grand River 3. Verdigris River 4. Arkansas River 5. Deep Fork River (Canadian River) 6. North Canadian River (Now the Oklahoma River as of 2006) 7. South Canadian River (Sometimes just called the Canadian River) 8. Red River 9. Deep Fork Creek in Oklahoma City 10. Cat and Dog Creeks in Claremore Waterways may be researched at the Oklahoma Department of Transportation or the Corps of Engineers office. The Works Progress Administration Federal Writers Project papers are available at the Oklahoma Historical Society and may offer additional insight into the changes in Oklahoma waterways. II.

    Transcripts of Letters in Maine Voices from the Civil War

    Transcripts of letters in Maine Voices from the Civil War The following documents have been transcribed as closely as possible to the way that they were written. Misspelled words, length of line, creative use of grammar follow the usage in the documents. Text in [brackets] are inserted or inferred by the transcriber. If they are accompanied by a question mark, it represents the transcribers best guess at the text. Most of the documents are from Maine State Museum (MSM) collections. The MSM number is our accession number. Items from other institutions are located at the end of the document. Those institutions include the Maine State Archives and the National Archives. More information about Maine State Archives documents can be found by searching their website using the writer’s name: http://www.maine.gov/sos/arc/sesquicent/civilwarwk.shtml Samuel Cony to Mrs. Elizabeth B. Leppien MSM 00.38.3 STATE OF MAINE EXECUTIVE DEPARTMENT, Augusta, December 12, 1865. MRS. ELIZABETH B. LEPPIEN: Madam,—Your note of the 9th instant, announcing your pur- pose to present to the State of Maine the sword of your son, Lieut. Col. George F. Leppien, of the 1st Maine Light Artillery, is received. Be pleased to acdept my thanks in behalf of the Stte therefor. This sword, when received, shall be placed in the archives of the State, and preserved as a memento of that gallant young man who sacrificed his life upon the alter of his country. Col. Leppien, was neither a son or citizen of the State, except by adoption, but we nevertheless feel that he belongs to Maine, whose commission he bore with high honor to himself and to her.

    Source Labels - Slavery and Maine

    Source Labels - Slavery and Maine- Source 1- Document Runaway Advertisements Boston News-Letter, December 10, 1705. P.4 Boston News-Letter, April 22, 1706. P.4 Images from: https://stirlingcentrescottishstudies.wordpress.com/2015/10/01/john-campbell-and-the- runaway-slave-advertisement These two newspaper clippings are from the advertisement section in a 1705 edition of the Boston News-Letter. The first tells the public to be on the lookout for two missing people who were traveling together. Peter was an enslaved black man whose master was “William Pepperil” (his name seems to be misspelled) and Issaac Pummatick was a Native American who was in the British military or navy. They somehow came together and escaped in 1705. Another newspaper clipping over a year a later says that both men were caught and returned to their “owner.” They made it all the way from Kittery in the Province of Maine to South Carolina before they were caught. Isaac Pummatick may have been Wabanaki, though the clipping doesn’t provide his tribal identity. It may seem strange that he was running away, since he was not enslaved. It seems like he ran away from either the British navy or military (“Her Majesties Service”). In 1705, “Her Majesty” was England’s Queen Anne. Men were sometimes conscripted, meaning they were forced to fight for England whether they wanted to or not. It is interesting that the men ran south, instead of north, where later generations of enslaved people would seek freedom. Southern plantations and farms were especially known for their brutal treatment.

    Vol. 44, No. 8 Published monthly by the Oklahoma Historical Society, serving since 1893 August 2013 “History through Music” at the Oklahoma History Center On Thursday, August 29, the Oklahoma History Center will host Dr. Harold Al- dridge and Dorothy Ellis, aka “Miss Blues,” for an educational and entertaining performance on the development of Blues music. This edition of the Oklahoma Historical Society’s “History through Music” program will examine the develop- ment and appreciation of the Blues music genre from its roots in nineteenth century slavery to its popularity in the twentieth century. Doors will open at 6 p.m. and the program will start at 7 p.m. Oklahoma Historical Society members can RSVP and receive free seats. Nonmembers interested in attending must pur- chase an OHS family membership at half price, $25, or any of our other membership levels at regular price, and then will be able to RSVP for up to two seats. Dr. Aldridge and Miss Blues will lecture and perform on the roots of different Blues styles. During the program scholars also will discuss how the unique settlement of the Sooner state mixed different cultures and music, creating its own distinctive sounds and musicians. During the presentation both musicians will explain the roles that secular and gospel music had in these communities. Born and raised in the all-black town of Taft, Oklahoma, Dr. Harold Aldridge learned to play the guitar from the town’s older musi- cians. He will perform and give the history of the differing styles of Blues, including how regional sounds emerged.

Unfortunately, preservation programs are out of the reach of many institutions because of funding, training, and resource issues. Over the past decade, the Oklahoma Department of Libraries, the Oklahoma Historical Records Advisory Board, and the Oklahoma Museums Association have worked together to develop programs and services that help organizations address preservation planning, environmental control and proper storage, care and handling of materials, disaster planning, conservation reformatting, and security. In addition to preservation issues, the organizations have also provided programs on building organizational capacity, strengthening boards, and connecting with the community. Evaluation reports on these activities indicate a high level of satisfaction with the programs and services; however, there continues to be an unmet need for “one-on-one” interaction and expanded delivery methods, i.e., distance learning. Key Recommendations for Further Consideration: Below is a summary of key recommendations related to training and programming. The Work Group should review each recommendation, respond to the questions, contribute additional information, and identify action steps to move the recommendation forward.
