    CIVIL WAR CAMPS AT READVILLE CAMP MEIGS PLAYGROUND & FOWL MEADOW RESERVATION VoL. PRELIMINARY HISTORIC DATA COMPILATION Cant oF t Camp Meigs, READVILLE, M.VM MASS. Sr 0 47c r i )1; CULTURAL RESOURCE MANAGEMENT PROGRANI W. A. Stokinger A. K. Schroeder Captain A. A. Swanson RESERVATIONS & HISTORIC SITES METROPOLITAN DISTRICT COMMISSION 20 SOMERSET STREET BOSTON MASSACHUSETTS April 1990 ABSTRACT Camp Meigs or the Camp at Readville was the most heavily used of the approximately thirty-nine Civil War training grounds established by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts for the processing of Massachusetts Volunteer Militia (MVM) troops for induction into Federal service. Situated adjacent to the Neponset river on a site historically used for militia musters in what was the town of Dedham (now Hyde Park), a camp of rendezvous was first founded near the Readville railroad junction in July 1861 and remained in active service through early 1866. This camp supported over time the Commonwealth's primary training cantonment and a general hospital. During those Civil War years the Readville camps processed and trained at least 29,000 of the 114,000 men who served in the units raised by the Commonwealth. Thus, approximately a quarter of all men serving under Massachusetts state colors passed through Readville on their way to war. Preliminary research also indicates that of the 135 discrete, independently operating MVM organizations sanctioned and trained by the Commonwealth, Readville's graduates were allocated into at least 54 units, or forty percent of all MVM establishments, comprising: Nineteen of the Commonwealth's sixty-six camp trained MVM Infantry regiments.

  • Derby Wharf Light Station Volume VIII, Number 7 February 2007 on the Cover: Derby Wharf Light Station Has Stood on the End of Derby Wharf Since 1871
    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Salem Maritime National Historic Site Salem, Massachusetts Pickled Fish and Salted Provisions Historical Musings from Salem Maritime NHS Derby Wharf Light Station Volume VIII, Number 7 February 2007 On the cover: Derby Wharf Light Station has stood on the end of Derby Wharf since 1871. 2 Pickled Fish and Salted Provisions Guardian of the (not very) Deep Salem Maritime National Historic Site includes the Derby Wharf Light Station, a white, twelve by twelve foot square brick structure with a roof deck about fourteen feet above ground level surmounted by a black iron and brass cupola (lantern). Powered by solar energy, the lantern currently houses a 300 candle-power bulb inside a 155 millimeter plastic optic lens twenty-two feet above the water. The National Park Service acquired title to the building from the Coast Guard in 1979. In a cooperative venture, the Friends of Salem Maritime, a local volunteer organization, and the National Park Service restored the structure to serviceable condition in 1983, and the lamp was re-lighted on October 4, 1983. Lighting Derby Wharf On July 15, 1870 the US Congress authorized an appropriation of $30,000 to include the con- struction of a light station at the tip of Derby Wharf as part of a larger plan to “establish three lights to mark the main channel leading into this anchorage, with the view to its becom- ing a harbor of refuge which may be safely entered at any time.”1 Replacing a light suspended from the old 1812 Derby Wharf Corporation warehouse at that location, the new tower guided shipping into the South River channel passing between Derby Wharf and the Naumkeag Steam Cotton Company mills to the Derby Street waterfront.
