Monitor, the iron-clad which successfully bested the Confederate ironclad Merrimack at the Battle of Hampton Roads, VA on March 9, 1862. The Monitor, designed by the famous Swedish-born inventor, John Ericsson, was completed in a record 100 days at Greenpoint, Long Island as a counter measure to the rising might of the Confederate Navy. The vessel sank off Cape Hatteras, NC in a storm Dec. 31, 1862, while being towed to Beaufort, NC, to join the blockade of the Confederacy. Since the day of its loss, it had been the subject of much speculation, as to its whereabouts. Ten years ago the Monitor was located, lying on the ocean floor near the Cape.

  • Notre Dame Athletics Department
    NOTRE DAME WELCOME TO NOTRE DAME The interior of the golden-domed Main Building on the Notre Dame campus was closed for the 1997-99 academic years as it underwent a renovation. The facility was rededicated in ceremonies in August of ’99. It also underwent a $5 million exterior renovation, which included the cleaning and repair of the 4.2 million bricks of the facility, in 1996. The University of Notre Dame decided, however, was precisely the type of institution Notre Dame would become. How could this small Midwestern school without endowment and without ranks of well-to-do alumni hope to compete with firmly established private universities and public-sup- ported state institutions? As in Sorin’s day, the fact that the University pursued this lofty and ambitious vision of its future was testimony to the faith of its leaders — leaders such as Father John Zahm, C.S.C. As Schlereth describes it: “Zahm… envisioned Notre Dame as potentially ‘the intellectual center of the American West’; an institu- tion with large undergraduate, graduate, and profes- sional schools equipped with laboratories, libraries, and research facilities; Notre Dame should strive to become the University that its charter claimed it was.” Zahm was not without evidence to support his faith in Notre Dame’s potential. On this campus in 1899, Jerome Green, a young Notre Dame scientist, became Notre Dame’s founding can perhaps best be charac- University’s academic offerings.

  • Remarks on the History of Hudson County in Relation to Old Bergen Church and Its Community
    Remarks on the History of Hudson County in Relation to Old Bergen Church and its Community Presented by Bob Murgittroyd (historian) during the program “Slice of History”(part of Old Bergen Church’s 350 th Anniversary celebration) on May 14, 2010 at the Brennan Courthouse, Jersey City, NJ Settlement of Bergen Tonight’s alloted time does not permit a lengthy re-telling of the history of our area but I have been asked to offer glimpses of the history of Hudson County during the 350 years of its existence. Today it is hard to imagine Hudson County as the edge of the American frontier, but from the time Henry Hudson sailed into the New York Bay in 1609 until the founding of the Town of Bergen in 1660, that is exactly what is was. During those 51 years settlers to the area experienced both the rewards and perils of living in a wildness area filled with rich natural resources and a native people whose cultural would often clash with their own. Almost immediately upon Hudson’s return to the Netherlands the prosperous merchants who had financed his voyage of discovery sought to exploit their investment in the area then named New Amsterdam. One commodity found by Hudson’s travels seemed to offer the best chance for immediate financial reward, the pelts of American beaver which were then so highly prized in Europe. For the next twelve years parties of men were sent to the area to establish small trading posts to barter with the natives for the valuable beaver skins.

Quarstein when he presents on a commander who saved a single-turreted Passaic-class monitor in the Union Navy during the American Civil War from sinking. Once Commander John Lorimer Worden had recovered from wounds received during the Battle of Hampton Roads, he was detailed to command the Passaic- class monitor USS Montauk. The Montauk survived the same storm that sank the ironclad USS Monitor. Worden and his ship arrived in Port Royal Sound, South Carolina. Admiral Du Pont ordered Worden to bombard Fort McAllister, Georgia. This mission was to test the striking power of XV- inch Dahlgren guns against earthworks, as well as to understand these new ironclads’ shot-proof abilities. On February 28, 1863, Worden was able to destroy the former commerce raider CSS Nashville (Rattlesnake). However, while heading back down the Ogeechee River, Montauk struck a torpedo. Only Worden’s quick actions saved the ship from sinking. 100 Museum Drive, 757-596-2222. Click here for more information.
