Y., which showed in tabu­ lar forn1 the six children of Seymour Fitch and Elizabeth Hoyt, with their children. That simple record has been grad­ ually elaborated. The greatest single c~ntribution was made by Elizabeth (More) Cumming, late of Deposit, N. Y., who in 1934 put into my hands the material about the family of her grand­ mother, Elizabeth Betts (Fitch) Alverson. That material has been used as she furnished it, ,vith a few later additions. Others who have been helpful by providing family records in written form are: Miss Susan E. Wakeman, Brooklyn, N.

    Thinking Like a Floodplain: Water, Work, and Time in the Connecticut River Valley, 1790-1870 By (c) 2016 Jared S. Taber Submitted to the graduate degree program in History and the Graduate Faculty of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy. ________________________________ Chairperson Sara M. Gregg ________________________________ Gregory T. Cushman ________________________________ Edmund P. Russell ________________________________ Robert J. Gamble ________________________________ Peggy A. Schultz ________________________________ Dorothy M. Daley Date Defended: 28 April 2016 The Dissertation Committee for Jared S. Taber certifies that this is the approved version of the following dissertation: Thinking Like a Floodplain: Water, Work, and Time in the Nineteenth Century Connecticut River Valley ________________________________ Chairperson Sara M. Gregg Date approved: 28 April 2016 ii Abstract Residents of the nineteenth-century Connecticut River Valley learned the character of the river, and water more broadly, through their labor. Whether they encountered water in the process of farming, shipping, industrial production, or land reclamation, it challenged them to understand its power as both an object outside their control and a tool that facilitated their work. This awareness of water's autonomy and agency necessitated attention to how water's flow varied across timescales ranging from seasons, through historical precedents in working with water, and into the geological processes whereby the river shaped the contours of the Connecticut River floodplain and the valley as a whole. Communities mobilized this knowledge when explaining the limitations that ought to circumscribe novel water uses and trying to maintain the river's status as a common tool shared among diverse bodies of users.
