Toth L Introduction and immigration are two important and intertwined phenomena in Pennsylvania's history from 1870 to INDUSTRIALIZATIONWorld War II.The rapid growth of mining, iron and steel pro- duction, manufacturing, and railroads during this period drew millions of immigrants. In turn, the immigrants had a significant effect on their towns and cities. The largest non-English-speaking— groups to jointhe industrial work force — the Italians and Poles have been the sub- jects of considerable scholarly attention. 1 Relatively little, however, has been published about many of the smaller but still significant groups that took part in the "new immigration/' New Castle's Syrian community is one such smaller group. 2 In a general sense, it is typical of other Arabic-speaking immigrant com- munities which settled inAmerican industrial centers around the turn of the century — Lawrence, Fall River, and Springfield, Mass.; Provi- Writer and editor Anthony B.

    A snapshot of Pittsburgh LOOKING BACK at 1816 from 19 16 By Aaron O’Data and Carrie Hadley Learn More Online 44 WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA HISTORY SUMMER 2016 | The 200th anniversary of Pittsburgh’s incorporation explained “This morning about sunrise, we left Pittsburgh with all the joy of a bird which escapes from its cage. ‘From the tumult, and smoke of the city set free,’ we were ferried over the Monongahela, with elated spirits.” “[John Byrne] at his Umbrella Manufactory, Fourth, Between Market and Ferry Streets. Just received and for sale at his Oyster House, a few kegs of the most excellent Spiced Oysters [but] continues to make and repair Umbrellas and Parasols in the newest manner.” ~ both from Pittsburgh in 1816, published 1916 1 These two spirited, offbeat quotes are a tiny but entertaining window into the world of Pittsburgh in 1816, the year of its official incorporation as a city. In 1916, Pittsburghers saw fit to mark the centennial of the incorporation by gathering small sketches about the city for a book, Pittsburgh in 1816. The slim volume was compiled by unknown authors from the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh, and is structured like a written photo album, with snapshots of information to “interest the Pittsburgher of 1916 chiefly because the parts and pieces of which it is made were written by men who were living here or passed this way in 1816.”2 To mark the bicentennial of the incorporation of Pittsburgh, it is fitting to look back on both the city’s founding and its centennial year.

  • SLAVERY in WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA Edward M. Burns
    204 Slavery in Western Pennsylvania SLAVERY IN WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA * Edward M. Burns Every person reasonably well acquainted with the his- tory of our commonwealth knows that slavery existed for a time in Eastern Pennsylvania. But the average Western Pennsylvanian of Scotch-Irish antecedents rather fondly cherishes the opinion that his forbears were endowed with such high moral senses that they proscribed the institution from the first. Evidence is not lacking, however, to indi- cate that the western part of the state had its share of hu- man chattels. According to the census of 1790 there were 3,737 slaves inPennsylvania, and 878 of these were listed in the counties of Westmoreland, Fayette, Washington, Alle- gheny, and Bedford, the only counties that had been erected in Western Pennsylvania by 1790. (1) The fact that slavery had reached its zenith in Eastern Pennsylvania about twenty years before made little difference because of the wide disparity in population of the two sections. By way of illustration, at the time of the first census, in Western Pennsylvania the number of slaves was one to every eighty- seven of the population, whereas in Eastern Pennsylvania the ratio was roughly one slave to every four hundred inhab- itants. In 1780, largely through the instrumentality of George Bryan, the Pennsylvania legislature enacted a law providing for the gradual abolition of slavery in the state and also for the registration of slaves owned by the resi- dents of the several counties (2). Included among the slave- holders in Westmoreland County who registered their hu- man property pursuant to the requirements of this act were four clergymen.

  • Town Development in Early Western Pennsylvania R
    Town Development in Early Western Pennsylvania R. Eugene Harper first indications of urbanization in western Pennsylvania were the appearance of town lots on the tax assessment records THEof local townships in the 1790s. The beginning of town life at very early stages in the development of a region is not surprising. It is now clear that some measure of urban development was basic to the westward movement and frontier experience from the beginning. 1 While in this early stage, the effect that towns had on the over- whelmingly agrarian society was not great; nevertheless, the process of urbanization did significantly impact the economic, political and social patterns of the region. Town lots made available an inexpensive form of land ownership that attracted a variety of people, from laboring men to speculators. A number of enterprising proprietors laid out towns at strategic loca- tions in the hope that fate and foresight would join to ensure them economic advantage. Certain millsites or river crossing points seemed automatically to draw a core of people, and alert landowners soon platted towns and began to sell lots to willingbuyers. Seats of local government had to be erected, and the choice of a particular site could be very beneficial to those who had power toinfluence the final decision. Even subsistence frontier areas had nascent mercantile net- works for which the new towns became obvious locations. Beyond these initial considerations, a small successful town attracted crafts- men and artisans. Successful mercantile activity attracted more busi- nessmen. The choice of where to locate religious, educational or in- tellectual institutions was often affected by the location of towns.

    United States Attorney David J. Hickton Western District of Pennsylvania FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE THURSDAY, MAY 29, 2014 WWW.JUSTICE.GOV/USAO/PAW Dozens Indicted on Federal Drug Charges PITTSBURGH- After a lengthy investigation into drug trafficking in Wilkinsburg, Pennsylvania, forty-four (44) people - 43 residents of Pennsylvania, and one resident of New Jersey - were indicted by a federal grand jury in Pittsburgh on charges of violating federal narcotics and firearms laws. On May 21, 2014, a federal grand jury issued one superseding indictment and five indictments, all related to one another, United States Attorney David J. Hickton announced today. “Heroin is a huge problem in Western Pennsylvania,” stated U.S. Attorney Hickton. “The prosecution of this gun-toting, drug trafficking conspiracy will disrupt a major heroin pipeline from Newark to our area. These conspirators brazenly sold their illegal drugs openly on the streets of our communities. Today they are out of business.” According to Patrick Fallon, Asst. Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation – Pittsburgh Office, “Today’s arrests are the result of a long-term, multi-agency investigation conducted by the Greater Pittsburgh Safe Streets Gang Task Force. As a result of the hard work and dedication exhibited by members of the Task Force, today we made dozens of arrests that will have a positive impact on the safety and quality of life in our local communities.

    Essay: “Trees of Western Pennsylvania” W.E. Hamilton D.Y. Sillman Penn State University This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution‐Noncommercial‐No Derivative Works 3.0 license. It may be distributed and shared, with attribution, but not altered or used commercially in any way. “Trees of Western Pennsylvania” The first Europeans to see Western Pennsylvania had to be overwhelmed by the extreme “treeness” of the place. Gigantic white pines and hemlocks, immense oaks and chestnuts, and a staggering array of maples, beech, ash, cherry, birch, poplar and more filled almost all of the physical space of this vast wilderness. The trees covered the valleys, the hillsides, and the mountain slopes. Trees grew in the wet‐muck soils of swamps and wetlands and on the bare rocks that capped the ridge tops. The trees covered the rich, fertile soils of the bottomlands and the thin, acidic soils of the mountains. It is estimated that 95% of the 29 million acres of what is now Pennsylvania was covered with forest (USDA 2004). The “Primary” Forests Few early explorers or settlers in Western Pennsylvania recorded detailed observations about the types of trees that made up the vast forests that surrounded them. Some early journals, though, along with land survey notes, land company description flyers, and saw mill records are available, though, to piece together a tentative picture of what the undisturbed forest of Western Pennsylvania looked like. In southern Pennsylvania, the ridges and valleys described by Charles Mason in his journals from the 1763 Mason and Dixon survey expedition were dense with hemlocks (which they called “spruces,” not an uncommon error of the time).
