Railway Employee Records for Colorado Volume Iii
RAILWAY EMPLOYEE RECORDS FOR COLORADO VOLUME III By Gerald E. Sherard (2005) When Denver’s Union Station opened in 1881, it saw 88 trains a day during its gold-rush peak. When passenger trains were a popular way to travel, Union Station regularly saw sixty to eighty daily arrivals and departures and as many as a million passengers a year. Many freight trains also passed through the area. In the early 1900s, there were 2.25 million railroad workers in America. After World War II the popularity and frequency of train travel began to wane. The first railroad line to be completed in Colorado was in 1871 and was the Denver and Rio Grande Railroad line between Denver and Colorado Springs. A question we often hear is: “My father used to work for the railroad. How can I get information on Him?” Most railroad historical societies have no records on employees. Most employment records are owned today by the surviving railroad companies and the Railroad Retirement Board. For example, most such records for the Union Pacific Railroad are in storage in Hutchinson, Kansas salt mines, off limits to all but the lawyers. The Union Pacific currently declines to help with former employee genealogy requests. However, if you are looking for railroad employee records for early Colorado railroads, you may have some success. The Colorado Railroad Museum Library currently has 11,368 employee personnel records. These Colorado employee records are primarily for the following railroads which are not longer operating. Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad (AT&SF) Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railroad employee records of employment are recorded in a bound ledger book (record number 736) and box numbers 766 and 1287 for the years 1883 through 1939 for the joint line from Denver to Pueblo. -

Inauguration and Images of Kingship in England, France and the Empire C.1050-C.1250
Christus Regnat: Inauguration and Images of Kingship in England, France and the Empire c.1050-c.1250 Johanna Mary Olivia Dale Submitted for examination for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of History November 2013 This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived there from must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. Abstract This thesis challenges the traditional paradigm, which assumes that the period c.1050-c.1250 saw a move away from the ‘biblical’ or ‘liturgical’ kingship of the early Middle Ages towards ‘administrative’ or ‘law-centred’ interpretations of rulership. By taking an interdisciplinary and transnational approach, and by bringing together types of source material that have traditionally been studied in isolation, a continued flourishing of Christ-centred kingship in the twelfth and early thirteenth centuries is exposed. In demonstrating that Christological understandings of royal power were not incompatible with bureaucratic development, the shared liturgically inspired vocabulary deployed by monarchs in the three realms is made manifest. The practice of monarchical inauguration forms the focal point of the thesis, which is structured around three different types of source material: liturgical texts, narrative accounts and charters. Rather than attempting to trace the development of this ritual, an approach that has been taken many times before, this thesis is concerned with how royal inauguration was understood by contemporaries. Key insights include the importance of considering queens in the construction of images of royalty, the continued significance of unction despite papal attempts to lower the status of royal anointing, and the depth of symbolism inherent in the act of coronation, which enables a reinterpretation of this part of the inauguration rite. -
Guest of the Emperor
GUEST OF THE EMPEROR K. C. Emerson 1977 GUEST 0F THE EMPER0R by K. C. Emerson 560 Boulder Drive Sanibel Island, Florida 33957 Fourth Printing, 1987 Copyright 1977, Kary Cadmus Emerson Electronic copy by RCD 2002 by permission PREFACE After my return to the United States in the fall of 1945, my parents and others urged me to record my experiences in the Orient before and during World War II. In 1970 I wrote about my experiences from the fall of 1942 until mid September 1945. At that time I could not write about my earlier experiences because my notes covering that period had been misplaced. Recently I found the remainder of my notes while emptying an old foot locker for my son. The job has now been completed. My delay in beginning this task probably reflects the fact that I did not want to do it until time had mellowed my interpretation of these experiences. Just as in combat, time alters what one cares to relate to those who were not there, and it moderates interpretation of the more severe situations. Some people experienced worse conditions than I, and of course, some had better conditions. However, I have chosen to discuss typical incidents, with emphasis on the ordinary events and without many of the unpleasant details. Five notebooks of notes which I took in prison camp and my memory were the principal sources of the material recorded. The National Archives, the US Army Photographic Library, and friends who also survived were consulted to verify my recollec- tions. In addition to my family, L. -

[Tape Pauses] …interviewing Ann Jacobson. Ann, would you like to tell us your name at birth? My real name was Anni Ernestine Reisner. Oh, my gosh! You will have to spell that. A-N-N-I. My maiden name … I had two first names. Anni Ernestine and Reisner. R-E-I- S-N-E-R. And where were you born? I was born in Berlin, Germany. And when? April 25th, 1926. I’ve had some people who wouldn’t give me a… [laughing] Who wouldn’t tell you, huh? I’m very proud of it. [laughing] And were you born in a hospital or at home? I think I was born in the hospital and I was the second child to be born. My father had been married and his first wife died in 1918 in that big flu epidemic. And he was a widower for about five years, then he met my mother. And they got married and my mother had a baby that was a blue baby. In those days they couldn’t do much with that. She died. And then a year later, almost, I was born. And then three years later my brother, younger brother, was born. -
