Caraher ©2009 History at the University of North Dakota An Introduction The plan for each department to write a departmental history first emerged in conjunction with the Centennial Celebration at the University of North Dakota. The result was a series of departmental histories which ranged widely in quality and length. The Department of History, however, did not produce a formal history at that time. It may have been that the production of a volume celebrating the 100th Anniversary of the University occupied their collective efforts. 1 While work began on such a publication, it never advanced beyond a rather ramshackle document without any author listed and entitled: A Centennial Newsletter.2 When President Charles Kupchella requested that departments and divisions bring their histories up to date in the run-up to the 125th Anniversary of the founding of the University, I undertook to write a basic history of the department from the first historian on campus until today.

  • Civil War Laundresses in the Field, Camp and Hospital
    1 The following article is copyrighted and may not be copied in any form, either printed or electronic, without the written permission of the author. TUBS AND SUDS: CIVIL WAR LAUNDRESSES IN THE FIELD, CAMP AND HOSPITAL Virginia Mescher © 2013 Author’s Note: Portions of this article previously appeared as “Under the Canopy of Heaven: Military Laundresses in the Civil War” in The Journal of Women’s Civil War History: From the Home Front to the Front Lines, Vol. 1, edited by Eileen Conklin and available from Thomas Publications, Gettysburg, PA. This version of “Tubs and Suds: Civil War Laundresses in the Field, Camp and Hospital,” appeared in the August and September 2003 issues of the Camp Chase Gazette. INTRODUCTION Throughout the years of civil war reenacting, there have been numerous debates on the appropriateness of a laundress impression at reenactments or living history events. There is a great deal of primary documentation indicating that laundresses were widely used by the military in garrisons, camps, and hospitals, and there are instances where women were present in the field and involved in battles but they were usually nurses. There is some documentation that supports the presence of laundresses at military events but with the caveat that the findings of this article should not be used as a vehicle to justify that every woman at an event should portray a laundress nor that an abundance of women can justify their presence in the military camp — especially a campaign camp — by claiming to be laundresses. In optimum conditions, there were four laundresses allowed per company of one hundred or fewer men, so there would been a limited number of laundresses present at any one time.

While the most advanced technological means to photograph and reproduce this document have been used, the quality is heavily dependent upon the quality of die original submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help you understand markings or patterns which may appear on this reproduction. 1.The sign or "target" for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is "Missing Page(s)". If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting thru an image and duplicating adjacent pages to insure you complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a large round black mark, it is an indication that the photographer suspected that the copy may have moved during exposure and thus cause a blurred image.

    “THIS IS THE POINT ON WHICH THE WHOLE MATTER HINGES”: LOCATING BLACK VOICES IN CIVIL WAR PRISONS Caroline Wood Newhall A thesis submitted to the faculty at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Department of History. Chapel Hill 2016 Approved by: William Fitzhugh Brundage William Barney Joseph G. Glatthaar ©2016 Caroline Wood Newhall ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Caroline Wood Newhall: “This Is The Point On Which The Whole Matter Hinges”: Locating Black Voices IN Civil War Prisons (Under the direction of William Fitzhugh Brundage) The story of military prisons during the Civil War is both tragic and incomplete. While a number of historians have done significant work in analyzing and revising the narratives surrounding military prisons and POWs, in depth examinations conducted from the “bottom up” have only just begun to appear in Civil War prison historiography. As a result, black POWs are largely deemphasized as participants in the conflict, consigned to a passive role as catalysts for political sparring between Union and Confederate officials. However, black POWs were active participants in resisting capture and enslavement, and vocalized their treatment in various mediums, particularly through pension file affidavits. Placing these sources in conversation with white POW narratives and various officials’ discussions of prisoner policy, it is clear that prisons played a far more significant role in the conflict than is currently acknowledged, and black POWs’ experiences were tragically emblematic of the Confederacy’s consistent use of racial violence and subjugation to maintain its existence as a white supremacist power.
