The interviewee is David Carliner and the interviewer is Charles Reischel. The interview took place on August 27, 1997. Mr. Reischel: I thought I’d start at the beginning with the fact that you are a local product. You were born here. Mr. Carliner: Washington, D.C., Sibley Hospital when it was on North Capitol Street. I tell people I woke up and I came out of my mother’s stomach and looked at the Capitol and screamed. Mr. Reischel: But you moved to Virginia at some point. Mr. Carliner: Well, not really. My father was in the grocery business and his style of business was to buy a grocery store and buy the real estate and stay in the grocery store for a couple of years and then sell the business and keep the real estate. So his income was built up by moving around owning different pieces of property which he rented and sold. My family lived in a number of different places in Washington, but it wasn’t until I was in my last year of high school, when I was about 16 years old, that my family moved to Arlington, Virginia. Mr. Reischel: So you went to D.C. schools? Mr. Carliner: I went to D.C. schools. I went to McKinley High School. This is not part of my legal history, but McKinley High School was my neighborhood school. My family lived on Bladensburg Road near South Dakota Avenue, so when I was going to McKinley High School – it being a vocational school in the neighborhood – I could take any courses that I 1 wanted. I was not destined to be a carpenter, a cabinetmaker or tinkerer; I took academic courses. In my last year of high school my family moved to Arlington, Virginia, in Clarendon, until the school told me I was no longer in the neighborhood and that if I wanted to continue to go to McKinley I had to take a vocational course. So like any red-blooded American boy I said, “I want to take automobile repair shop.” They said, “No, you can’t take that unless you take iron forge and eight other courses.” Mr. Reischel: They had prerequisites to automobile repair? Mr. Carliner: Yes, for automobile repair. They would have to let me stay in high school for four more years to take automobile repair shop. I didn’t want to do that. So I asked if I could I take some other vocational course. They said, “Yes, which one?” I said, “What about cooking?” They said, “Yes, you can take cooking if you can get three other guys to sit around the kitchen stove with you.” So I got three other guys. The four of us sat around the kitchen stove and I was able to take cooking in high school. I was the first class at McKinley of boys that ever took cooking. It came to be very useful, as a matter of fact, because I learned how to read recipes, and I know how to cook. It was fortunate that when my wife died several years ago that I was able to do my own cooking. I didn’t do much cooking when she was living. Mr. Reischel: The four of you were the only guys in the cooking class? Mr. Carliner: They didn’t want to have a boy sitting next to girls around a kitchen stove. They weren’t quite that integrated. Anyway, the point of this is I didn’t move into Virginia, but my family did when I was 16 years old and then subsequently I finished school in Washington. At one stage my family moved out to Silver Spring, but I was no longer really living with them. I was going to college at the University of Virginia in Charlottesville, but my 2 domicile was Silver Spring, off Dale Drive.

  • The Education and Training of Gentry Sons in Early Modern England
    Working Papers No. 128/09 The Education and Training of Gentry Sons in Early-Modern England . Patrick Wallis & Cliff Webb © Patrick Wallis, LSE Cliff Webb, Independent Scholar November 2009 Department of Economic History London School of Economics Houghton Street London, WC2A 2AE Tel: +44 (0) 20 7955 7860 Fax: +44 (0) 20 7955 7730 The Education and Training of Gentry Sons in Early-Modern England* Patrick Wallis and Cliff Webb Abstract: This paper explores the education and training received by the sons of the English gentry in the late sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Using information from the herald’s visitations of four counties, it offers quantitative evidence of the proportion of gentry children who entered university, spent time at one of the inns of court or became apprentices in London. We show that over the period there was little change in the educational destinations of gentry sons: university and apprenticeship absorbed roughly equal proportions; the inns of court slightly less. We also show that a son’s position in the birth order had a very strong influence on the kind of education he received. Eldest sons were much more likely to go to university or one of the inns of court. Younger sons were much more likely to become apprentices in London – as we show, trade clearly was an acceptable career for the gentry. There is little sign of a change in the status of different educational choices in this period. Our findings confirm some traditional assumptions about the importance of birth order and normative expectations in determining the life-courses of gentry children in the seventeenth century: historians should not over-state the autonomy of elite children in deciding their futures.

    Advocates for Harvard ROTC . Telephone: (978) 443-9532 11 Munnings Drive Email: [email protected] Sudbury, Mass. 01776 16 May 2017 From: Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) To: Advocates for Harvard ROTC Subject: All other military veterans among Harvard alumni (H-1894 to H-1926) Harvard graduates have a long proud history of serving as warriors in the United States military. Based on hard data from the Harvard Alumni Association, 11,319 Harvard alumni were on active duty during WWI. The purpose of developing the subject is to reinforce the general awareness that freedom is not free. Harvard undergraduates in particular as well as others should be aware and appreciate that many Harvard alumni before them paid a price in time, blood and restricted earning for our national security and liberty. Such military veterans at one point of their life wrote a blank check made payable to the USA for an amount up to and including their own life. All gave some and some gave all. If you have a Harvard alumnus relative from the above classes that is a military veteran, please send your military focused biographic write up and photo (if available) to Captain Paul E. Mawn USN (Ret.) at the above e-mail address. Please use a similar format as in the below entries. 1. HARVARD COLLEGE by CLASS 1894 Private Charles Francis Malley Royal Canadian Army (42nd Highlanders, 76th Canadian Infantry) [Died on active duty] Charles was born in Milton (MA) in 1872 to parents who had both emigrated from Ireland.

Information Leaflet No. 21 Titles – A Primer The Peerage – There are five grades of the peerage: 1) Duke, 2) Marquess, 3) Earl, 4) Viscount and 5) Baron (England, GB, UK)/Lord of Parliament (Scotland). Over the centuries, certain customs and traditions have been established regarding styles and forms of address; they follow below: a. Duke & Duchess: Formal style: "The Most Noble the Duke of (title); although this is now very rare; the style is more usually, “His Grace the Duke of (Hamilton), and his address is, "Your Grace" or simply, "Duke” or “Duchess.” The eldest son uses one of his father's subsidiary titles as a courtesy. Younger sons use "Lord" followed by their first name (e.g., Lord David Scott); daughters are "Lady" followed by their first name (e.g., Lady Christina Hamilton); in conversation, they would be addressed as Lord David or Lady Christina. The same rules apply to eldest son's sons and daughters. The wife of a younger son uses”Lady” prior to her husbands name, (e.g. Lady David Scot) b. Marquess & Marchioness: Formal style: "The Most Honourable the Marquess/Marchioness (of) (title)" and address is "My Lord" or e.g., "Lord “Bute.” Other rules are the same as dukes. The eldest son, by courtesy, uses one of his father’s subsidiary titles. Wives of younger sons as for Dukes. c. Earl & Countess: Formal style: "The Right Honourable the Earl/Countess (of) (title)” and address style is the same as for a marquess. The eldest son uses one of his father's subsidiary titles as a courtesy.
