  • Thomas Wilson Dorr of Rhode Island
    GOVERNOR THOMAS WILSON DORR OF RHODE ISLAND 1711 Joseph Dorr graduated from Harvard College. He would become a minister at Mendon. By 1828, ten young men of this name “Dorr” would graduate from that institution (plus, four from other institutions). Presumable these were all descendants of the Edward Dorr, who perhaps had settled at Roxbury and founded a family in the 1680s after coming down to the Boston area from Pemaquid in Maine, where he had sworn fidelity during 1674. When not more than 5 or 6 years old, presumably in about this timeframe, Benjamin Franklin saw a moose wandering down the city street. A bagatelle he would author on November 10th, 1779, “The Whistle,” describes how delighted he had been in tootling on a whistle he had purchased — and then how crestfallen he was upon learning that for the price paid, he might have obtained four such toys. John Comer (3) attended school in Boston, his teacher being Ames Angier. HDT WHAT? INDEX GOVERNOR THOMAS DORR THE “DORR WAR” 1805 November 5, Tuesday: Wilson Flagg was born in Beverly, Massachusetts. His father was a grammar-school teacher and musical leader. He would be educated at Phillips Andover Academy and go on to Harvard College. He would be described as “a man of small size and light weight, not robust, ... a regular walker for pleasure of physical profit.” Thomas Wilson Dorr was born in Providence, Rhode Island, son of a wealthy businessman. The family was distinguished because his grandfather Ebenezer had been one of Paul Revere’s riding companions on that famous patriotic act of 1775.1 Gramps 1.

  • Rhode Island's Dorr Rebellion and Bay State Politics, 1842-1843 by Erik
    108 Historical Journal of Massachusetts • Summer 2011 Attorney Thomas W. Dorr (1805-54) 109 “Let the People Remember!”: Rhode Island’s Dorr Rebellion and Bay State Politics, 1842-1843 ERIK J. CHAPUT Editor’s Introduction: In 1842 a group of Rhode Island reformers took up arms in order to remove the state’s archaic form of government. The origins of the brief, but tumultuous, insurrection lay deep in Rhode Island history. The results, however, deeply impacted politics in Massachusetts. Beginning in 1776, all of the original thirteen colonies, except Connecticut and Rhode Island, wrote new constitutions and set up representative governments. The spark that led Providence attorney Thomas Wilson Dorr (1805- 54) to move from a war of words to the field of battle involved the continued reliance on the 1663 colonial charter as the state’s governing document. As John Quincy Adams noted in his diary on May 10, 1842, Dorr had taken steps to “achieve a revolution in government” because Rhode Island still “adhered” to the charter.1 Rhode Island’s colonial charter, which was still used as the state’s governing document as late as 1842, contained no amendment procedure and restricted suffrage to landowners possessing $134 of real estate. Because of the property qualification for voting, most of the populations of the growing commercial and manufacturing districts were disenfranchised. Indeed, only 40% of the state’s white male population was eligible to vote by 1840.

    “The Dupes of Hope Forever:” The Loco-Foco or Equal Rights Movement, 1820s-1870s by Anthony Comegna BA, Shippensburg University, 2010 MA, University of Pittsburgh, 2012 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P.

While historians have assumed that the Loco-Foco movement ended with the existence of the original third party in New York (1836-7), I pursue their philosophy and activism throughout the time and space of the late antebellum period. Loco-Focoism can be characterized as radical classical liberalism, including commitments to natural and equal rights, individualism, private property, laissez-faire, democratic republicanism, and, often, antislavery. Self-avowed and influential Loco-Focos included Herman Melville, Nathaniel Hawthorne, Walt Whitman, and countless other important figures in antebellum thought, culture, and politics ranging across the continent from New England and the northern border to the Pacific frontier zone and even the increasingly proslavery, anti-locofoco South.

Rhode Island’s School Funding Challenges in Historical Context Daniel W. Morton-Bentley* INTRODUCTION A new federal lawsuit, A.C. v. Raimondo, alleges that Rhode Islanders have a constitutional right to a basic level of education.1 While the specific claim in that lawsuit is novel, its approach is not. Beginning in the 1970s, education advocates filed numerous federal lawsuits alleging that state funding mechanisms for local school districts violated students’ constitutional rights to education and equal protection.2 When the United States Supreme Court rejected these arguments in the 1973 case of San Antonio Independent School District v. Rodriguez, advocates presented their arguments to state courts, alleging similar violations based on state constitutional provisions.3 Rhode Island’s funding system was challenged in the 1995 case of City of Pawtucket v.
