  • Joshua Barney —
    HISTORICAL SOCIETY NOTES AND DOCUMENTS THE DEATH AND INTERMENT OF JOSHUA BARNEY Rebecca Hoskins CC* IVHESE bones live in the patriotic affection of the American X people. Clothed in the image of God, and animated with the spirit of their departed heroes, they were the public property of the nation." lThus spoke William McCandless on May 12, 1848, as he gave the funeral oration upon the removal to Allegheny Cemetery of the body of Commodore Joshua Barney, renowned naval hero of the American Revolution. Few residents of Pittsburgh are aware that their city is the last resting place of Joshua Barney, a colorful naval officer of the Revolu- tionary War. Barney, whose portrait hangs in Independence Hall in Philadelphia, had several links with the state of Pennsylvania and, although they are far from the sea, it is fitting that his bones rest inPittsburgh. This article willhighlight Barney's career as itpertains to this state and area, and detail the circumstances surrounding his death and burial in Pittsburgh. Barney's naval career was varied and interesting. Born in Maryland in 1759, he followed his boyhood obsession with the sea and was commissioned a navy lieutenant in 1776. He was twice captured by the British and served a year in an English prison but escaped back to America. He served with distinction in the navy until 1784 when he left voluntarily after a dispute over his rank. For the next ten years he engaged in commercial ventures, until in 1794 he bought an estate inKentucky. Barney then entered the merchant service and sailed as a privateer until 1796 when he was appointed a commander in the French navy.

  • The USS Arizona Memorial
    National Park Service Teaching with Historic Places U.S. Department of the Interior Remembering Pearl Harbor: The USS Arizona Memorial Remembering Pearl Harbor: The USS Arizona Memorial (National Park Service Photo by Jayme Pastoric) Today the battle-scarred, submerged remains of the battleship USS Arizona rest on the silt of Pearl Harbor, just as they settled on December 7, 1941. The ship was one of many casualties from the deadly attack by the Japanese on a quiet Sunday that President Franklin Roosevelt called "a date which will live in infamy." The Arizona's burning bridge and listing mast and superstructure were photographed in the aftermath of the Japanese attack, and news of her sinking was emblazoned on the front page of newspapers across the land. The photograph symbolized the destruction of the United States Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor and the start of a war that was to take many thousands of American lives. Indelibly impressed into the national memory, the image could be recalled by most Americans when they heard the battle cry, "Remember Pearl Harbor." More than a million people visit the USS Arizona Memorial each year. They file quietly through the building and toss flower wreaths and leis into the water. They watch the iridescent slick of oil that still leaks, a drop at a time, from ruptured bunkers after more than 50 years at the bottom of the sea, and they read the names of the dead carved in marble on the Memorial's walls.

Other Broadsides 17 Maps 18 Newspapers 18 Periodicals 19 Photos and Illustrations 19 Genealogy 21 Histories of the War of 1812 23 Maryland in the War of 1812 25 This document serves as a guide to the Maryland Center for History and Culture’s library items and archival collections related to the War of 1812. It includes manuscript collections (MS), vertical files (VF), published works, maps, prints, and photographs that may support research on the military, political, civilian, social, and economic dimensions of the war, including the United States’ relations with France and Great Britain in the decade preceding the conflict. The bulk of the manuscript material relates to military operations in the Chesapeake Bay region, Maryland politics, Baltimore- based privateers, and the impact of economic sanctions and the British blockade of the Bay (1813-1814) on Maryland merchants. Many manuscript collections, however, may support research on other theaters of the war and include correspondence between Marylanders and military and political leaders from other regions. Although this inventory includes the most significant manuscript collections and published works related to the War of 1812, it is not comprehensive. Library and archival staff are continually identifying relevant sources in MCHC’s holdings and acquiring new sources that will be added to this inventory. Accordingly, researchers should use this guide as a starting point in their research and a supplement to thorough searches in MCHC’s online library catalog.
