SP 0004 Joseph E. Bishop Collection, 1920S 801 K Street NW Washington, D.C. 20001 www.DCHistory.org SPECIAL COLLECTIONS FINDING AID Title: SP 0004 Joseph E. Bishop collection, 1920s Processed Date: 1999; 2006 [Finding aid updated April 2016] Joseph E. Bishop was a well-known local photographer, having moved to Washington about 1877. At the turn of the Twentieth Century he was appointed Chief Photographer of the Army War College, and in 1905 was given charge of the Mathew Brady Collection of Civil War photographs. In 1919, the Brady Collection was transferred to the Army Signal Corps. Bishop continued to serve as Chief Photographer at the War College until his retirement in 1926. He died March 3, 1929. Scope and Content: The Joseph E. Bishop collection, 1920s, consists of 350 glass plate negatives and corresponding prints. Mr. Bishop has been identified as the photographer of the majority of the images, which are primarily streetscapes of downtown Washington, D.C. and nearby residential areas in the 1920s. The collection is primarily of Old Downtown Washington, but also includes the Georgetown, Foggy Bottom, and Southwest neighborhoods. Among the photographs not attributable to Mr. Bishop are a number of prints which are copy photographs related to the Civil War. Donor: The Bishop Collection was purchased in March 1986 through generous contributions from Mr. John T. Gibson, Mr. Henry H. Glassie, Mr. William Greer, and Mr. Gary Heurich. 1986.106 Size: 1.2 cubic ft. (three containers) Access Restrictions: The collection is open for research. Unless there is a demonstrated need to access the originals, access is provided via the print photographs. Use Restrictions: The Historical Society of Washington, D.C., believes that these images are in the public domain. For those created by Bishop, the creator died prior to 1946, making those that may not have been registered nor published, in the public 1 domain. The Civil War photos are in the public domain by virtue of date of creation, either as created prior to 1923 (for copyrighted works) or prior to 1896 (for unpublished works). Note: Ultimately is the patron's obligation to determine and satisfy copyright or other case restrictions when publishing or otherwise distributing materials found in the collections. 2 SP 004 Joseph E.

In a famous letter from Abigail to her husband on March 31, 1776, she wrote: “I long to hear that you have declared an independency. And, by the way, in the new code of laws which I suppose it will be necessary for you to make, I desire you would remember the ladies and be more generous and favorable to them than your ancestors. Do not put such unlimited power into the hands of the husbands. Remember, all men would be tyrants if they could. If particular care and attention is not paid to the ladies, we are determined to foment a rebellion, and will not hold ourselves bound by any laws in which we have no voice or representation.” Day One Walking Tour From the hotel, head south on 16th St. to Lafayette Square. The large building at H St. and Madison Place is Dolley Madison House. The stately home was built in 1820 by Congressman Richard Cutts who was married to Dolley Madison’s sister Anna.
