  • Guide to the Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. Papers
    Guide to the Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. Papers Descriptive Summary: Creator: Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr., 1902-1993 Title: Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. Papers Dates: 1856-1956 (bulk 1927-1956) Quantity: 81.2 linear feet Abstract: Blueprints, correspondence, drawings, etching plates, news clippings, and a scrapbook related to the business dealings and genealogy of architect Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. Accession: 10-09-267 ; 267-1993 Biographical Note: Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr., the last of the locally celebrated Hutchisson architects, was born in 1902 in Mobile, Alabama. From 1926 to 1932 Hutchisson worked in the office of his father, Clarence L. Hutchisson Sr. Between 1940 and 1945, Hutchisson trained as an engineer and would serve as chief architect for the Mobile Corps of Engineers. During his career, he designed a variety of structures in the Mobile area. Like his mother, Henrietta Homer Hutchisson, he was interested in the genealogy of the Homer family and he and his mother gathered information about several of his bloodlines. Much of this genealogical correspondence took place with his cousin Annie Homer Wilson and pertains to the Homer family in Nova Scotia, Canada. Hutchisson died in December 1993. Scope and Contents: This collection contains etching plates, news clippings, a scrapbook, and the business stamp of Clarence L. Hutchisson Jr. In addition, the collection is made up of a wide selection of correspondence, both business and private, contracts, building specifications, blueprints, and other related architectural documents. Of particular importance are the 200 architectural drawings of structures designed by the Hutchissons (ca. 1908-1972). These drawings are indexed by address as well as the client's name.

  • Mobile Historical Self Guided Tour
    Welcome to the 2014 Alabama State H.O.G. Rally Ride Page! SURVEY SAYS….. 68% come to the rally for the rides and 32% come for the events. Well, 68% of you should be very pleased. The 2014 Alabama H.O.G Rally is all about the rides from 8am to 2 pm. So get ready to get your knees in the breeze! We have 3 premier long rides and 3 shorter rides with all rides back to Mobile Harley Davidson by 2 pm so you won’t miss any of the 15 minute seminars that repeat starting around noon or demonstrations that don’t begin until 3:30 pm. Following are our ride details with links to detailed information in Harley’s Ride Planner, GPS files and PDF files. If you don’t have a profile set up in Harley Ride Planner, do it to view the rides in detail. The PDF files are an overview map with simplified driving directions in a 1 page format. If you want a color printed copy please print it out before you come. B/W copies will be available while they last at registration only. All of the routes have 2 parts. This is because Google apparently doesn’t hire bikers in the map division and their software just can’t understand our way of navigation. So bookmark http://mobilehog.com/statehogrally2014.html and keep coming back as it will be continually updated right up to rally time. You can go to the end of this booklet and check the revision dates to know if you have the latest version.

  • Shawhan and Sarah Meeks: the First Four Generations
    The Descendants of Darby Shawhan and Sarah Meeks: The First Four Generations by Ronald T. Shawhan and Robert E. Francis First Generation 1. DARBY1 SHAWHAN was born 1673 in Ireland, and died 1736 in Kent Co., MD. He married SARAH MEEKS November 20, 1707 in St. Paul’s Parish, Kent Co., MD; She was the daughter or granddaughter of WALTER MEEKS and SARAH (UNKNOWN); she died 1736 in Kent Co., MD. Nothing is known about our first generation ancestor, Darby Shawhan, prior to his marriage to Sarah. It is believed that he was born in Ireland but no evidence exists to verify this (the best we can do at this juncture is go on circumstantial evidence which is fairly substantial—see article on “Historical Considerations of Darby Shawhan and Sarah Meeks” in volume two). Following is what we do know about this couple: November 20, 1707: Darby Shawhan married Sarah Meeks at the St. Paul’s Parish, Kent County, Maryland. (St. Paul’s Parish Register, Kent Co., Md. published in Wright, F. Edward. “Maryland Eastern Shore Vital Records 1648-1725.” 2nd edition. Decorah, Iowa: The Anundsen Publ. Co., 1982. p. 34). 2 Aug 1709. Darby Shawhan purchases 100 acres of a 650 acre tract known as “Shad’s Hole” from Francis Bellows and his wife Margaret. The price was 3,200 pounds of tobacco. 14 Nov 1709. Name of Darby Shehorne, Kent Co., Md. appears on the bond of Francis Collins, administrator of the estate of Edward Carroll. 27 Nov 1714. Survey 50 acres of Shad’s Hole, known as Darby’s Desire, located on north side of one of the branches of Morgan’s Creek.
