How Baltimore Became the New York of the South: European Immigration Between 1867-1914 and the Development of Ethnic Neighborhoods Around the Port of Baltimore
HOW BALTIMORE BECAME THE NEW YORK OF THE SOUTH: EUROPEAN IMMIGRATION BETWEEN 1867-1914 AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ETHNIC NEIGHBORHOODS AROUND THE PORT OF BALTIMORE A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of The School of Continuing Studies and of The Graduate School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Liberal Studies By Ron Cassie Georgetown University Washington, D.C. April 15, 2016 HOW BALTIMORE BECAME THE NEW YORK OF THE SOUTH: EUROPEAN IMMIGRATION BETWEEN 1867-1914 AND THE DEVELOPMENT OF ETHNIC NEIGHBORHOODS AROUND THE PORT OF BALTIMORE Ron Cassie, MA Mentor: Charles Edward Yonkers, JD ABSTRACT Located 40 miles south of the Mason-Dixon Line, Baltimore was the fourth – largest city in the U.S. and the largest in the South before the Civil War, serving as the economic hub of the Mid-Atlantic region. Although Baltimore was always home to a significant free black population, the city was centered in a largely slave-holding state. Although Maryland choose neither Union or Confederate sides during the Civil War before President Abraham Lincoln sent federal troops into Baltimore, the city’s port business in the middle of the 19th century focused on the rural exports of tobacco, cotton, grain, and flour; ship building; and the importation of sugar. Politically, economically, and culturally, Maryland was, at the time, a Southern state full of plantations from the Eastern Shore across the state’s central area around Baltimore. The city, however, was more a blend of white Southern and white Northern influences, a marginalized African-American citizenry, a significant group of German immigrants, and more recent Irish arrivals at the start of the Civil War. -
