  • The Principal Indian Towns of Western Pennsylvania C
    The Principal Indian Towns of Western Pennsylvania C. Hale Sipe One cannot travel far in Western Pennsylvania with- out passing the sites of Indian towns, Delaware, Shawnee and Seneca mostly, or being reminded of the Pennsylvania Indians by the beautiful names they gave to the mountains, streams and valleys where they roamed. In a future paper the writer will set forth the meaning of the names which the Indians gave to the mountains, valleys and streams of Western Pennsylvania; but the present paper is con- fined to a brief description of the principal Indian towns in the western part of the state. The writer has arranged these Indian towns in alphabetical order, as follows: Allaquippa's Town* This town, named for the Seneca, Queen Allaquippa, stood at the mouth of Chartier's Creek, where McKees Rocks now stands. In the Pennsylvania, Colonial Records, this stream is sometimes called "Allaquippa's River". The name "Allaquippa" means, as nearly as can be determined, "a hat", being likely a corruption of "alloquepi". This In- dian "Queen", who was visited by such noted characters as Conrad Weiser, Celoron and George Washington, had var- ious residences in the vicinity of the "Forks of the Ohio". In fact, there is good reason for thinking that at one time she lived right at the "Forks". When Washington met her while returning from his mission to the French, she was living where McKeesport now stands, having moved up from the Ohio to get farther away from the French. After Washington's surrender at Fort Necessity, July 4th, 1754, she and the other Indian inhabitants of the Ohio Val- ley friendly to the English, were taken to Aughwick, now Shirleysburg, where they were fed by the Colonial Author- ities of Pennsylvania.

This PDF provides paragraph numbers as well as page numbers for citation purposes. ISSN: 1949-9833 JHNA 7:2 (Summer 2015) 1 COLLECTING OLD MASTERS FOR NEW YORK: HENRY GURDON MARQUAND AND THE METROPOLITAN MUSEUM OF ART Esmée Quodbach The subject of this article is the collector Henry Gurdon Marquand (1819–1902), banker and railroad financier, and a noted member of the burgeoning class of newly prosperous business magnates of Gilded Age New York. An exception- ally civic-minded patron, Marquand set out in the early 1880s to assemble a group of first-class Old Master paintings for the Metropolitan Museum of Art. This paper explores Marquand’s acquisitions, especially the Flemish and Dutch paintings he bought. Focusing on Marquand’s 1889 gift of thirty-seven Old Masters to the museum—the first gift of its kind—this paper also considers Marquand’s aspirations, not only as a major private collector but especially as a leading donor to the institution, whose second president he became in 1889.

  • Lake Erie Watershed (Great Lakes Basin) Character Statement
    Lake Erie Watershed (Great Lakes Basin) Character Statement Lake Erie is the fourth largest of the Great Lakes in terms of water surface area (9,910 square miles) but the smallest by volume, containing only about 3% of the Great Lakes water. Lake Superior has over 50%, Lake Michigan has 21%, Lake Huron has 16%, and Lake Ontario has 9%. Water from the other Great Lakes reaches Lake Erie through the Detroit River and continues on to Lake Ontario through the Niagara River and Welland Canal. The total watershed is 30,140 square miles with only 511 square miles in Pennsylvania. Geology All of the Great Lakes experienced glaciation several times throughout the past. The force and power of these events led to the physical characteristics of the lakes including Lake Erie’s depth and size. Such events also defined the area’s geology and topography thus determining the groundwater resources. In PA, the Lake Erie watershed lies within two physiographic provinces. The area adjacent to the lake is located in the Eastern Lake Section of the Central Lowland Province and is situated over shale, sedimentary and sandstone bedrock. The upland area of the watershed is located in the Glaciated Pittsburgh Plateaus Section of the Appalachian Plateau Province. These provinces within the watershed are separated by an erosional scarp (a steep slope or cliff found at the margin of a flat or gently sloping area usually against the dip of the rocks) that is three to four miles from the lake and oriented in a southwest to northeast direction. Aquifers in both provinces benefit tremendously from the deposition of glacial drift – unconsolidated material from past glaciers.
