Benjamin, Robert Gamble, applied anthropology, historic preservation, anthropology of museums, Manatee River settlement © Copyright 2008, Felicia Bianca Silpa Dedication This thesis is dedicated to all the men in my life: Daniel, Scott, Geoffrey, Marc, and Alex. Acknowledgments I acknowledge and thank my thesis committee. Dr. Brent Weisman, Dr. Kevin Yelvington, and Dr. Philip Levy made this thesis possible. In addition to the guidance, they also provided me with diverse and challenging models of anthropological studies. I thank Dr. Uzi Baram. As my undergraduate advisor, he gave me the foundation to build upon. As my friend and colleague, he was always willing to listen and discuss issues regarding anthropology as a whole and Gamble Plantation specifically. I thank Dr. Amy Reid, who listened endlessly to my brain swimming and whose advice enabled me to communicate what I wanted to achieve. I acknowledge and thank Dr. Elzie McCord, Jr. who supplied his knowledge of Florida botany and southern African American perspectives. Our many discussions allowed me to see things other than through my limited experiences. I acknowledge and thank the staff members of the Judah P. Benjamin Memorial at the Gamble Plantation Historic State Park. Former Park Supervisor, Don Bergeron, and Park Rangers Wayne Godwin, Ted Unger, and Don Dutcher were willing to share their knowledge and time with me. I thank Daniel Hughes for his untiring help. He was always there to offer advice and discussions during all stages of this thesis. His willingness to share his experiences and books was invaluable. I acknowledge Dr. Deborah Varos, Dr. Justus Doenecke, Dr. George Luer, Barbara Bardy, Dixie Schmidt, Kelly Scudder, Sherry Svekis, John Jaffer, other friends and family members who provided resources, encouragement, and were willing to read this evolving thesis. I acknowledge and thank Pearlene McCord and her family and friends who accepted me as family. They were willing to share intimate life experiences and it is from their experiences that I learned some of the differences between assimilation and accommodation. I thank members of the Anthropology Department of the University of South Florida. Last, but certainly never least, I must tell the world how much I appreciate my husband and sons for their patience and encouragement. They were there for me on days when I felt overwhelmed by the process.

  • Behind the Mansions: the Political, Economic, and Social Life of a New Bedford Neighborhood
    Behind the Mansions: The Political, Economic, and Social Life of a New Bedford Neighborhood Introduction: The Study Area and Scope This study examines the largely residential area lying immediately east of the mansions on County Street in New Bedford, Massachusetts, as it existed before the Civil War. Within the boundaries of this area—from Union Street on the north, Wing Street on the south, County Street on the west, and South Sixth Street on the east—lived wealthy white whaling and shoreside merchants as well as skilled craftspeople, shop owners, and a full range of service workers, laborers, and mariners of both Caucasian and African descent. In architectural terms the area includes Federal, Greek Revival, Gothic Revival, and some early Italianate homes ranging from high to vernacular styles. In these respects the area may be viewed as a cross-section of the city’s antebellum built environment and population. Whether the area may properly be termed a neighborhood—in the sense of being an urban subsection that people then perceived to have its own set of social connections and physical boundaries—is not possible to establish.1 Certainly Union Street, as New Bedford’s main commercial artery before the War, was a real and psychic boundary, and in this section County Street formed for all intents and purposes the western edge of the city up to the Civil War. Moreover, the area between County and South Sixth Streets was a distinctly different physical space than what existed to its east, roughly between Fifth (now Pleasant) Street and the Acushnet River waterfront.

Stewart HOWARD UNIVERSITY A CONTINGENCY THEORY PERSPECTIVE ON MANAGEMENT CONTROL SYSTEM DESIGN AMONG U.S. ANTE-BELLUM SLAVE PLANTATIONS Abstract: This paper examines the management control-system design of mid-19th century U.S. slave plantations using a contingency theory framework. Large rice plantations that relied on forced labor and tidal-flow agricultural technology were very profitable for their own- ers. This paper presents a model that links these favorable operating results to a close fit between the control-system design and three key contingent environmental variables. Absentee owners hired managers to provide on-site oversight and periodic operational reporting.

  • University of the Virgin Islands and University of Florida Collaboration: Digitization for Preservation
    University of the Virgin Islands and University of Florida collaboration: Digitization for preservation Comprehensive Bibliography of Virgin Islands Agriculture and Rural Life Publications Compiled by Suzanne Stapleton, Valrie Minson, Tim D’Annecy Marston Science Library George A. Smathers Libraries, University of Florida Gainesville, Florida November 20, 2015 This publication was made possible with financial support from Project Ceres, a collaboration of the Center for Research Libraries, the United States Agricultural Information Network and the Agriculture Network Information Collaborative. Additional acknowledgements to Hattiesha Rich, University of Florida. Introduction The nearly 1,500 items in this comprehensive bibliography reflect the rich and complex history of agriculture and rural life on the Virgin Islands. English-language publications from the mid- nineteenth century through 2015 are the primary resources included. Digital resources, including historic maps, photographs and digitized publications, are identified with their location (permanent urls) in the Digital Library of the Caribbean (dLOC), hosted by the University of Florida Digital Collection. Open access to the digital objects in this bibliography is provided, thus enhancing global scholarship of Caribbean studies. The Virgin Islands, named by Christopher Columbus, are a group of islands and islets in the Leeward Islands of the Lesser Antilles in the Caribbean. The U. S. Virgin Islands, St. Thomas, St. Croix, and St. John, lie east of Puerto Rico (Antilles or West Indies Islands, 1844). Agricultural production and trade from the tropical Caribbean islands have been important to many nations. An original colony of the united Denmark-Norway kingdom was established in the mid-1650s. Small settlements, raiding and fighting were prevalent as various peoples ruled the islands: Danish, Norwegian, Dutch, English, French, Spanish and Scottish.

The presented dissertation reflects the wealth of available information in the region. This sourcebook of the African American woman (slave and free) before the Civil War in the Savannah River Valley analyzes 177 documents relating to the woman's treatment and social conditions, social relationships, eco¬ nomic role and means of resistance. Furthermore, this re¬ search presents documents as they relate to established historical premises identified with the African American woman and recreates the humanness of her life in the idiom 1 2 of the times. Such a re-creation explores the African American woman's history in a diversity of voices, with special emphasis on her own. The African American free woman of color and the enslaved woman (in many instances) were aggressive and rebellious—destroying life, property and participating in overt rebellious acts in spite of the obstacles con¬ fronting them.
