Alton H. Blackington Photograph Collection Finding
Special Collections and University Archives : University Libraries Alton H. Blackington Photograph Collection 1898-1943 15 boxes (4 linear ft.) Call no.: PH 061 Collection overview A native of Rockland, Maine, Alton H. "Blackie" Blackington (1893-1963) was a writer, photojournalist, and radio personality associated with New England "lore and legend." After returning from naval service in the First World War, Blackington joined the staff of the Boston Herald, covering a range of current events, but becoming well known for his human interest features on New England people and customs. He was successful enough by the mid-1920s to establish his own photo service, and although his work remained centered on New England and was based in Boston, he photographed and handled images from across the country. Capitalizing on the trove of New England stories he accumulated as a photojournalist, Blackington became a popular lecturer and from 1933-1953, a radio and later television host on the NBC network, Yankee Yarns, which yielded the books Yankee Yarns (1954) and More Yankee Yarns (1956). This collection of glass plate negatives was purchased by Robb Sagendorf of Yankee Publishing around the time of Blackington's death. Reflecting Blackington's photojournalistic interests, the collection covers a terrain stretching from news of public officials and civic events to local personalities, but the heart of the collection is the dozens of images of typically eccentric New England characters and human interest stories. Most of the images were taken by Blackington on 4x5" dry plate negatives, however many of the later images are made on flexible acetate stock and the collection includes several images by other (unidentified) photographers distributed by the Blackington News Service. -

Then There Was The Adventure The Story of Alexander Ware 1789-1836 Edward J. Lanham Then There Was The Adventure The Story of Alexander Ware 1789-1836 Introduction “The story of America is of settlers following the sun westward to new opportunities.” Georgia---Mid April, 2013 As spring drifted into summer along the Flint River, the landscape exploded across the Southland into a wreath of greenery. My field research, which I nick-named “GPS- in-hand and boots-on- the-ground”, is on hold until the leaves turn in the fall. It is now time to compile the past 6 months of research and exploration. For the past 24 years, I have lived in a small town in Fayette County, Georgia which was established in 1823 along the famous Indian trail named the “McIntosh Road.” While researching the history and route of this major trail, I eventually, as a past time, devoted 15 years to mapping that trail and others, then overlaying them on to current day topographical and road maps. I learned that the McIntosh Road was named for the Creek Indian Chief, William McIntosh, who widened a segment of a much longer existing trading route into a wagon road. Chief William McIntosh, a half breed Scot-Creek Indian, was raised by his Creek mother. As a young man, he fought with Andrew Jackson and became a brigadier general. He even dined with President Thomas Jefferson at the White House. McIntosh became a wealthy business man and owned hundreds of acres in Georgia and Alabama. His rank of both chief and brigadier general earned him an association with five presidents: Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, James Madison, James Monroe and John Quincy Adams. -

Georgia Genealogy Research Websites Note: Look for the Genweb and Genealogy Trails of the County in Which Your Ancestor Lived
Genealogy Research in Georgia Early Native Americans in Georgia Native inhabitants of the area that is now Georgia included: *The Apalachee Indians *The Cherokee Indians *The Hitchiti, Oconee and Miccosukee Indians *The Muskogee Creek Indians *The Timucua Indians *The Yamasee and Guale Indians In the late 1700’s and early 1800’s, most of these tribes were forced to cede their land to the U.S. government. The members of the tribes were “removed” to federal reservations in the western U.S. In the late 1830’s, remaining members of the Cherokee tribes were forced to move to Oklahoma in what has become known as the “Trail of Tears.” Read more information about Native Americans of Georgia: http://www.native-languages.org/georgia.htm http://www.ourgeorgiahistory.com/indians/ http://www.aboutnorthgeorgia.com/ang/American_Indians_of_Georgia Some native people remained in hiding in Georgia.

My interest in John Steinbeck’s work and its connection to lynching was sparked by a particular reading of his 1937 novel, Of Mice and Men. I say particular because I have encountered the novel many times. -
