Thanks, everyone, for a job well done. AITACKS on the COLORS Confederate Records Crumble Away From The Confederate Gazette, John Perry, Editor Southern culture has be en bes iege d on many fronts in recen t years, but the b i gg e s t loser may well be the records of the Confederate government. The r ecords, which include payrolls, hospital records, prlson r e c o r d s, governmental correspondence, bills passed by the Confederate Congress, and the all important Confederate Army muster rolls, are simply being allowed to decay . Over 5,730 cubic feet of Confederate records are held hostage in the National Archives destined to eventually fade completely away. After the Confederate government fell, the official Confederate Government records, that had been well maintained by Inspector Adjutant Ge~~ral Samuel COOPER, passed into the hands of Federal forces . Initially, each document was stamped, "Rebel Archives," and they were held in the War Department in Washington, D. C. Today the records are kept i n the National Archives' central facility on Pennsylvania Avenue in Washington . The records are badly deteriorating a c c o r ding to va r i ous Archives' personnell. Archivist Dr. Michael MEI R stated, "They're going to seed quickly." The r ecords are be i ng kept in stacks o f ordinary cardboard boxe s with no precautions be i ng taken to preserve them. There are two main r easons why the records are in such a s t a t e . Part of the problem is the document s thems elves . Th e Confederacy suffered through ma n y shortages and one major shortage wa s paper . Toward the end of the war, paper was virtually not available. Southern newspapers had to resorst to printing issues on the backs of wallpaper . The Confederate government used captured Union paper or made its own lesser grade paper. Ink was also very scarce. Many different g enerals had their own recipe for making ink to do thei r required p aper work. Ink was often made from ingredients such as vinegar a nd pine bark. The other problem is a political one. The National Archives is the official depository of all documents relating to American history, from 1776, to the recent Gulf War . Federal agencies, from the Department of Agriculture to the Veterans Admi nistration and commissions of all k i nd s , annually deposit approximately 4 billion documents. With limited air c onditioned and climate control space , each a gency and commi s s i on lobbies for its d ocuments to be preserved. Unfortunately, ther e is no acative Confederate Government t o lobby f or proper c are of its documents. As put by archivist Bill LIND, "There's nobody to speak for the dead .. .. My ancestors were Ya n k e e s , but I t h i n k it's a crime that those reco r ds (Confederate) are sitting t h e r e wi t h nobody to defend t h em, I. LIND said. Perhaps o f all the records that are decaying, the greatest l oss will be muster rolls o f the Confederate Army. There are literally hundreds of thousands of muster rolls wher Confederate commanders kept tabs on companies and regiments . The rolls were drawn up every two months and recorded were the names of those active, those that were sick, absent or injured, the condition of the company's supplies, arms, and discipline and even battles, skirmishes, and marches . "They (muster rolls) are an absolute irreplaceable resource," according to Robert KRICK, chief historian at the Fredericksburg and Spotsylvania National Military Park. Without these records, serious research cannot be done. "They are an invaluable piece of our historical heritage," KRICK said. Unfortunately, the Archives does not have any plans to even microfilm the documents . Pointing out budgetary constraints, the Archives claims it does not have the funds to either film or preserve the documents . Las t year, however, the Archives did find the funds to preserve the muster rolls of the 54th Massachusetts, the black regiment fictionalized in the movie "Glory." In the sterile atmosphere of the Archives preservation lab the 54th's records were painstakingly restored, microfilmed and then encapsulated in plastic film to last forever . Unfortunately, the Confederate records are today not "politically correct" and continue to rot away to nothing in ordinary cardboard boxes in the Archives basement. A new state of the art Archives II building, with all the correct climate controls, has been constructed in College Park, Maryland. Again, without political clout, Confederate records will not be moved. What will be moved? Among other records, the valuable memoirs of the now defunct Federal Supply Service, which handled important janitorial matters for the Federal government. What can be done? It will probably require Congressional action to appropriate the necessary funds to preserve our heritage. Write your Congressional representatives before it is too late! !

15 THE SANBORN MAPS An Excellent Reference by Reuben Feuge

A map can become an important tool whether modeling the proto­ type, or researching the past. The Sanborn maps were started by D.A. SANBORN, a civil engineer, when asked to conduct a survey for the Aetna Insurance Company. Mr. SANBORN was so impressed that, in 1876, he founded the Sanborn Map and PUblishing Co., LTD. In 1902, it was incorporated into its present form, the Sanborn Map Co., Inc.

These maps have become important reference material for various government agencies, private companies, and the public utili­ ties. Since they were originally prepared for the insurance rating services, they contain information such as water lines, hydrant locations, and " ot h e r information needed for the insur­ ance rating. In addition, structures, streets, and rail lines are shown. Most of the mapping was started in the early 1890s and the company claims that any town with over 1,000 inhabi­ tants has been mapped.

Locating the Sanborn maps is not difficult as many major libra­ ries carry them. Sanborn's covering the New Orleans area are at the main branch. In addition, the university libraries have copies on file; sets showing most other cities in Louisiana are also on file. Both libraries have bound volumes from various times, as well as complete sets on microfilm.

The Library of Congress carries a complete set of all the San­ born maps covering all cities in the United States. They are arranged by city and state, and located in the map reading room. There is also a book available to assist you in your re­ search: Fire Insurance Maps in the Library of Congress: Plans of North Aii1erican Cities and Towns produced by the Sanborn Map Company, 1980, pg 773 (SiN 030-004-00018-1) $29.00. This would be especially useful if you are studying various cities across the United States. Sanborn can provide you with any of their maps: -Sanborn Map Company, 629 Fifth Street, Pelham, New York, 10803 . These are black and white prints on 17"x22" paper. Scale accuracy 'is very good.

If using a bound volume, you will have the advantage of having the structures color-coded. Unfortunately, the newer maps and microfilm are not color-coded. The different colors represen­ ted the material used in the construction of the building and I have provided a chart to assist you if you are using the older bound volumes: Yellow = Wood Pink = Brick or Tile Blue = Stone, Concrete, or Concrete Block Green = Iron Brown = Adobe

Lord ASHLEY, with the aid of his secretary-John LOCKE, drafted a curious document called "The Fundamental Constitutions of Carolina." This was the longest, most fantastic and reaction­ ary of all colonial frames of government, and created a Carolina nobility:

BARON, and Lord of the Manor: Anyone who purchased 30,000 acres. CASSIQUE: Anyone who owned 1,200 acres. LANDGRAVE - a German title: Anyone who owned 20,000 acres.

The common people could elect members of a house of commons but no bill could become law unless consented to by a majority of the barons, cassiques, landgraves, and the proprietors (large extent of land with all governing powers given by a king to an individual) .

Samuel Eliot Morison, The History of the American People, Vol. 1 (New York: The New American Library, Inc., 1972) p 142. ** * **** * **** * * *** * **** * *** * * * ** * Why is Buckinghamshire like a drover's goad? Because it runs into Oxon and Herts!

Some famous men connected with "Bucks" are John NEWTON, John MILTON and Benjamin DISRAELI.

Cheltenham in G10ucestershire has (1886) a spring of saline waters and became a fashionable watering place dating from 1716. The waters were believed to help men feel hungry and strong. George III drank from these waters.

21 CONFEDERATE TRAINING CAMP IS OPEN AGAIN AFTER 7 YEARS Tangipahoa Camp Moore was closed in 1986 during The historic Camp Moore.· the budget crunch. largest Confederate training ' . BY JANET MCCONNAUGHEY .c~mp, ras reopened. .

TIle Confederacy's largest training camp-sa place where troops from three states brawled until they were sent to the front--is once more open to the public. Camp Moore is the one spot where the Confed­ erate Army tried to create a federal-style Army. Other states had several local camps each, historian Sam HYDE said. "They found it beneficial to keep the Louisiana, Mississippi and Arkansas boys separate because they tended to fight so much among themselves," he added. Between 70,000 and 80,000 raw recruits were drilled into soldiers at the camp out­ side the town ofTangipahoa, north ofHammond near the Mississippi border. "Gen. Edward D. TRACY said he needed to move the troops out of Camp Moore quickly so they could fight the Yankees before killing themselves, II Said HYDE, an assis­ tant professor at the University ofSouthwestern Louisiana. It may also have been the only camp where ranger were taught to bushwhack Union Soldiers, HYDE said. The camp was among 22 historical sites closed in September 1986 because ofstate budget problems. Some reopened. But it took the dedication oftwo men whose fathers opened the camp and its museum to get Camp Moore back open. It reopened to the public June 1, 1993. Camp Moore was founded six weeks after Louisiana's secession from the Union in January 1861. It flew the flag ofthe Independent Republic ofLouisiana- a dozen or so horizontal strips ofred, yellow and white- until the Confederacy was formed. Units which trained there included parts of the Louisiana Tigers, the Washington Artillery, the 4th Louisiana Regiment, which started with nearly 1,000 men and lost 95 of them during the war, and were merged with the l l th Louisiana Regiment after a disas­ trous battle in Franklin, Teen. The 11th was shipped off to Tennessee in a rush in 1862, 'after it led a whiskey riot that took three days to quell, HYDE said. A train loaded with whiskey had stopped near the cap, When the troops learned its cargo, they broke in and started passing the liquor around. ShreveportCL ou isiana) Times, July 19. 1993
