  • This Report Describes the Research Methods and Plans, Excavations
    INTRODUCTION This report describes the research methods and plans, excavations, analyses, and results of the archaeological investigations of the Patterson Lane Site Complex, near Christiana, New Castle County, Delaware (Figure 1). The Patterson Lane Site Complex consists of three separate historic sites: the Patterson Lane Site (7NC-E-53), the William Dickson Site (7NC-E-82), and the Heisler Tenancy Site (7NC-E-83) (Figure 2 and Plate 1). Archaeological investigations were conducted on the sites within the complex as part of the cultural resources survey of the planned realignment of Delaware Route 7 around the town of Christiana, which in turn was part of a larger upgrading and realignment of Route 7 from 1-95 to U.S. 13 (see Catts et al. 1988a). Phase I survey and testing and Phase II investigations of the sites were funded by the Delaware Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration, and were undertaken to fulfill regulatory obligations under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act (amended) to evaluate the effects of the proposed relocation and realignment of Delaware Route 7 on significant, or potentially significant, cultural resources as defined by the National Register of Historic Places (36 CFR 60). The Patterson Lane excavations were conducted in the summer of 1982 by archaeologists of the Delaware Department of Transportation. Phase I and II field investigations of the Dickson and Heisler Sites were undertaken in the winter and spring of 1986 by archaeologists from the University of Delaware, 1 Center for Archaeological Research (UDCAR). Preliminary artifact cataloging and analysis was performed on the Patterson Lane Site artifact assemblage by the DelDOT archaeologists, and final artifact cataloging and analysis, and report preparation for all three sites were conducted by UDCAR in 1987.

  • National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form
    NPS Form 10-900-a OMB No. 1024-0018 (3-82) Exp. 10-31-84 United States Department of the Interior National Park Service National Register of Historic Places Inventory Nomination Form Continuation sheet_____________________Item number N-6l88 _____Page 2____ INVENTORY FORM: WHITE CLAY CREEK HUNDRED MULTIPLE RESOURCE AREA E. Justification of Boundaries; The boundaries of the nominated property coincide with the boundaries of the legal parcel. Because the property fronts on Elkton Road, is bounded on the west by Casho Mill Road, and on the north and east by modern residential development, selection of these boundaries best preserves the integrity of this historic resource. F. Significance: The Andrew Kerr House is significant as an early example of a stone dwelling in White Clay Creek Hundred, and is important in understanding the early history and development of the hundred. The Kerrs were one of the first Scotch-Irish families to settle in the western part of White Clay Creek Hundred, and were prominent members of the Head of Christiana Presbyterian Church. Therefore, this property is being nominated to the National Register on the basis of criterion C, as it embodies the distinctive characteristics of a type, period, or method of construction; and on the basis of criterion B for its association with persons significant to the local:past. Samuel Kerr, patriarch of the White Clay Creek Hundred family, came to this country from Scotland, and settled in the western portion of the hundred, southwest of the Village of Newark. It was Samuel's son, Andrew, who built this stone house in 1805 authenticated by the initials AK and 1805 in a stone under the right gable said to be the most complete stone house erected in White Clay Creek Hundred at the time.

  • Delaware Revolutionary Tax Lists from the Delaware Public Archives
    Delaware Revolutionary Tax Lists from the Delaware Public Archives Subcommittee of Revolutionary Taxes, Genealogy Committee, National Society Sons of the American Revolution John D. Sinks, Harold Ford, and Tilghman McCabe, Jr. March 17, 2016 Purpose of the Report Background. The state of Delaware first passed tax laws in 1777. There were earlier colonial laws, but of course none of them were passed to support the Revolution or to address requests of the Continental Congress. The Delaware tax lists that provide evidence of Patriotic Service for the Sons of the American Revolution must date between 1777 and 1783 inclusive. Every state tax levied by Delaware from 1777 through 1783, supported the War, including some that addressed a request of the Continental Congress. This included retiring bills of credit, an action requested several times by the Continental Congress in order to maintain the financial underpinnings of the Revolution. A colonial law authorizing counties to levy taxes to support civil functions remained in effect throughout the Revolution, so there is a need to distinguish county taxes (which do not provide evidence of Patriotic Service), from state taxes and combined county and state taxes (which do provide evidence of Patriotic Service). The Delaware Public Archives has custody of a number of Revolutionary tax records for the three counties of the state as well as county levy court records. These records include lists of assessments made from 1777 through 1783 as well as lists of delinquents for Kent County. By virtue of delinquency for a tax supporting the War, a taxpayer does not qualify for patriotic service even if the tax supporting the War was paid late.

  • Saint James' Episcopal Church Mill Creek Hundred Tercentennial
    Saint James’ Episcopal Church Mill Creek Hundred 2106 St. James Church Road Wilmington, DE 19808 Tercentennial Celebration 1714 - 2014 Saint James’ Episcopal Church Mill Creek Hundred 1714 - 2014 Foreword What follows is an account of the life of St. James’ Church in the heart of New Castle County, Delaware. Over its history, the parish has been identified as “St. James’ White Clay Creek,” “St. James’, Stanton,” “Old St. James’,” and “St. James’ Mill Creek Hundred.” That’s a lot of places and names for a congregation that for 300 years has always gathered at the same location. While there is a special place in the heart for the historic building in which we still gather, what is truly the soul of St. James’ is that for three centuries it has welcomed and nourished those who have regularly met here to worship, to learn, and to serve the surrounding community. To step inside this church is to step not into the past; rather it is to enter into an enduring journey and story that are handed down from one generation to another. It is to participate in the best of our traditions preserved not as some remembrance of an earlier age, but as witness to the ever-flowing stream of our faith in the goodness of Almighty God. We invite you to not just visit this sacred place. We invite you to sit for awhile in reflection, prayer, and gratitude for the people who have come through its doors and found themselves touched by the presence of God. Seek for yourself this “peace which passes all understanding,” and when you leave, our hope is that you will carry with you an appreciation for the life that our Creator has bestowed upon us all.
