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! !

One’s first impression may be of size and distance—broad valleys rimmed by mountain ranges, with a huge sky arching over all. However, a closer look reveals that, beneath the broad brush strokes, this is a land of astonishing variety. For example, it is comprised of several kinds of desert, year-round flowing streams, and sky island mountain ranges.

  • The Story of a Community
    LIVINGSTON The Story of a Community ! Written by Workers of the WPA Writers' Program of the Works Projects Administration in the State of New Jersey ! Revised by the Livingston Bicentennial Historical Committee " American Guide Series ! Sponsored by the Township of Livingston 1939 & 2013 4th Revised Edition ! Acknowledgements ! This book is essentially a cooperative product of the people of Livingston Township, the former 1939 New Jersey Writers' Project and the Livingston Bicentennial Historical Committee in 2013. Every person approached by staff and committee members was glad to relate what he/she remembered, to show the documents and mementoes he/she owned, to suggest others who might supply information. It is obviously impossible to list all those who assisted in producing this book. The first edition was completed with the help of the members of the 125th Anniversary Committee: Freeman Harrison, chairman, who was unfailingly generous with his time and advice during the course of the work; Mrs. Lillias Cook; Miss Martha E. Devey, then township librarian; Leon O. Fisher, then superintendent of schools; Edward Gaulkin, then township recorder; the Reverend N. Lester Lawrence, then pastor, Livingston Baptist Church; and George B. Schulte. The first edition of the book was written by Richard A. Shafter from research material gathered by Miss Gertrude Tubby, Mrs. Katherine D. Hill and Fred Holden of the Essex County Unit of the Writers' Project. The first edition manuscript was edited for publication by Benjamin Goldenberg, supervising editor. The photographs were taken by Nathaniel Rubel, and the first edition was designed by Samuel Epstein, then Assistant State Supervisor.
