Historic BIENNIAL REPORT OF THE DIVISION OF ARCHIVES AND HISTORY

July 1, 1994-June 30, 1996

Jeffrey J. Crow, Director

During the biennium the Division of Archives and History experienced two epochal changes. First, William S. Price Jr., director for fourteen years and an employee of the division for twenty-four, retired on June 30, 1995. Second, the North Carolina Museum of History became an independent division within the

Department of Cultural Resources, effective February 1, 1996.

Those two changes set off a series of transitions that will continue well into the future. In the first instance, Jeffrey J. Crow, administrator of the Historical

Publications Section, became acting director on July 1, 1995. Upon the recommendation of the North Carolina Historical Commission, Secretary Betty Ray McCain appointed him permanent director on November 1.

In the second instance, Secretary McCain and Deputy Secretary Elizabeth F. Buford planned carefully for the structural changes that would occur within the Department of Cultural Resources with the separation of the North Caro- lina Museum of History from the Division of Archives and History. Secretary McCain appointed an internal committee to study how to effect the separation and to report to the North Carolina Historical Commission. At its November 1995 meeting, the commission agreed to assume oversight of the Museum of History Division in addition to the Division of Archives and History. Sub- sequent to that meeting, Deputy Secretary Buford appointed a Collections Management Policy Team to study the disposition of the thousands of artifacts physically divided between the Museum of History and the Historic Sites Section. Jeffrey J. Crow, James C. McNutt, director of the Museum of History, and James R. McPherson, administrator of the Historic Sites Section, served as cochairs of the team. At the end of the biennium the group was approaching consensus on how to manage the department’s historic artifacts.

One other consequence of the museum’s separation should be noted. For the first time since the Hall of History under Fred A. Olds came under the purview of the North Carolina Historical Commission in 1914, this biennial report will not include a report or appendixes from the Museum of History.

Another part of the division’s program that saw fundamental changes was the Historic Sites Section. Initiatives from the General Assembly resulted in two written reports about the feasibility of making the Newbold-White House and the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse part of the state historic sites system. The North Carolina Historical Commission rejected the Newbold-White House but accepted the courthouse, which officially became part of the Historic Edenton State Historic Site. Meanwhile, by legislative action the Elizabeth II was transferred from the Historic Sites Section to the Roanoke Island Commission, an autonomous agency within the Department of Cultural Resources.

Across the division new publications attested to the professionalism, talent, and depth of research that take place routinely in every section. Sherman’s March Forty-sixth Biennial Report

through North Carolina: A Chronology prepared by the Research , Branch in response to the controversy swirling around a proposed Union monument at Bentonville Battleground State Historic Site, was published by the Historical Publications Section. It immediately became a best seller, but it could not begin to compete with the long-awaited State Troops and Volunteers: A Photographic Record of North Carolina’s Civil War Soldiers, by Greg Mast. That volume alone lifted the Historical Publications Section to new levels of receipts. The section also issued a new volume in the Colonial Records series, the second volume of Zebulon B. Vance papers, a history of Onslow County, and a guide to state agency records, prepared by the State Archives and funded by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission. The Archaeology and Historic Preservation Section issued Legacy: A Preservation Guide into the Twenty-first Century.

The Archives and Records Section also underwent significant change. Be- cause of reductions in personnel in state government, the section combined three branches into two. It also hosted the highly successful annual meeting of the National Association of Government Archives and Records Administrators in July 1995. Potentially the greatest change for the section came in the guise of Senate Bill 426 during the 1995 session of the General Assembly. That bill required the division to devise indexing standards for databases throughout state and local government. Under the leadership of Larry G. Misenheimer, deputy director, the division had the guidelines in place by the end of the biennium.

Computerization remains one of the division’s principal challenges. To prepare for the division’s increased presence on the Internet, a so-called Web Commit- tee (World Wide Web) was formed. A North Carolina archaeology home page was one of the first attempts to announce the division’s services on the Internet. National Register sites also were digitized and entered in the Geographic Informa- tion System. In the coming years, the division will continue to communicate more and more information and services through the Internet.

Both the State Capitol/Visitor Services Section and Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens observed milestones. Restoration of the Senate chamber in the State Capitol was completed, and work began on restoration of the House chamber. In particular, Secretary McCain deserves credit for her vigorous efforts in obtaining repair and renovation moneys for both the State Capitol and other state historic sites. The Tryon Palace Commission celebrated its fiftieth anniversary in October 1995 in grand style. One of the most notable acquisitions at Tryon Palace during the biennium was Margaret Wake Tryon’s 1788 mourning ring.

Space remains a key concern throughout the division. Some relief may be in sight, however. Through the timely actions of Deputy Secretary Buford and the Office of State Archaeology, the division received an ISTEA (Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act) grant from the North Carolina Department of Transportation to establish a long-needed archaeology lab. Plans calling for the long-overdue renovation of the Archives and History/State Library Building will provide additional archival storage in the basement and larger facilities for researchers in the State Archives. At the close of the biennium the division was close to acquiring from the federal government the Oteen Center in Asheville. Once the site of the Western Office, the Oteen Center will be renovated as a regional records center and become once again the home of the Western Office. Still, the need for a

2 Director’s Report

new State Records Center is critical. Essentially, the division is out of space in which to store current and semicurrent state records.

The past two years have been extraordinarily busy ones for the division. The demands on staff for services both within and outside of government continue to expand without surcease. During the biennium the division administered five million dollars in grants to local historical groups and government agencies. It also processed sixty proposals for highway historical markers and accepted twenty- three. In September 1995 the division hosted a World War II symposium that was well received. Intragovernmental initiatives for performance budgeting, total quality management, and computerized finding aids absorbed much time and energy.

For more than nine decades the division has met such challenges with professionalism, dedication, and integrity. Even without the Museum of History, the division remains the largest state historical agency in the nation. In the opinion of many, it also remains the best.

3 ARCHAEOLOGY AND HISTORIC PRESERVATION SECTION

David Brook, Administrator

Solid growth in the delivery of services by the Archaeology and Historic Preservation Section marked the 1994-1996 biennium. The staff performed a total of nearly 21,000 preservation services for individuals, businesses, organizations, and governmental agencies. Expansion in outreach^over the last biennium was especially visible in the section’s Survey and Planning Branch, with a 98.6 percent increase to 578 field visits to historic properties and an approximately 64 percent increase to 7,700 responses to public requests. Similarly, the 3,481 consultations spread among all the twenty-three counties served by the Eastern Office in Greenville represented a 115 percent leap in services from the last biennium.

Staff public education services reached new heights through publications

with (1) the inauguration of The Preservation Commission Reporter , a bimonthly newsletter for local preservation commissions; (2) the completion of the A Guide to

the Historic Architecture of Eastern North Carolina , the first of a three-volume guide to the state’s architecture scheduled for publication by the University of North Carolina Press; (3) the publication of the Handbook for North Carolina Historic Preservation Commissions, cosponsored with Preservation North Caro- lina; and (4) the preparation of county fact sheets outlining the activity of the section on the local level.

Future prospects of improved and expanded archaeological research and curation services were boosted by an award from the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) of a major Intermodal Surface Transportation Effi- ciency Act (ISTEA) grant. Funds from the grant will be used for the renovation of the Old Textbook Warehouse on Lane Street in Raleigh for an archaeological research center. The section also made important strides in expanding protection for cultural resources in government planning by the concluding programmatic agreements on land-treatment activities by the Natural Resources Conservation Service (formerly the U.S. Soil Conservation Service) and on rehabilitation projects funded by the Federal Highway Administration thorough ISTEA. Moreover, in the spring of 1996 the state Historic Preservation Office (HPO) undertook a pathbreak- ing study of the state’s African American crossroads communities and hamlets. The study was funded by NCDOT and will help to guide future highway planning.

Milestones included the resignation of William S. Price Jr., division director and state historic preservation officer (SHPO) effective June 30, 1995; Dr. Price served with distinction as SHPO for fourteen years—the longest in the history of the program. He was succeeded as SHPO by Jeffrey J. Crow upon his appointment as division director effective November 1, 1995. Public support for the section’s programs visibly increased in the biennium by the formation of a grass-roots (albeit informal) network of friends of the State Historic Preservation Office. Leading that effort was Robert E. Stipe of Chapel Hill, former division director and SHPO.

Federal and State Grants Programs

Federal. The North Carolina share of the federal Historic Preservation Fund (HPF) decreased slightly from $1,369,282 in the previous two-year period to —

Archaeology and Historic Preservation

$1,364,632 in 1994-1996. From these funds, a total of $260,200, or 19 percent, in matching subgrants was awarded to 46 projects. HPF grant funds reserved for Certified Local Governments (CLGs) accounted for 27 projects, representing 59 percent of the total number of subgrants and 54 percent of the amount of grant funds awarded. (A list of HPF grants can be found in appendix 7.)

State. In 1994 and 1995 the legislature awarded the Division of Archives and History a total of $5 million in special appropriations for the purpose of promoting local and regional history. The HPO played an important role in the review of more than 800 applications submitted. Approximately two-thirds of the division’s funding was designated for historic preservation projects.

Certified Local Government (CLG) Program

Two new localities—the village of Clemmons and the city of High Point were certified during the biennium, bringing the total number of active Certified Local Governments (CLGs) to 34. (A map and list of CLGs can be found in appendix 8.) Lloyd Childers, CLG coordinator, conducted 76 consultations with local governments and revised the booklet Guidelines for North Carolina’s Certified Local Government Program. She also edited ten issues of the Preservation Com- Reporter a quarterly newsletter for historic preservation mission , commissions, including CLGs.

Environmental Review (ER)

Approximately 6,140 requests for review and comment were processed under Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act, North Carolina General Statute 121- 12(a), and North Carolina Executive Order XVI. Under the leadership of ER coordinator Renee Gledhill-Earley, thirty-six Memorandums of Agreement (MOA) and four Programmatic Agreements (PA) were negotiated and signed. Most MOAs were for individual house demolitions in low-income neighborhoods and replacement of obsolete bridges. In addition to the four regular PAs, the Historic Preservation Office entered into statewide agreements with the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s Natural Resources Conservation Service for land treatment projects and the Federal Highway Administration and the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT) to address archaeological issues related to four-lane highways at new locations. The new process legitimized an alternative approach to NHPA’s Section 106 process, which should aid all parties in the performance and review of highway-related archaeology surveys. The Army Corps of Engineers agreed to allow the Department of Cultural Resources to rehabilitate the Mason House at Jordan Lake in Chatham County. Under G.S. 121- 12(a), the Division of Archives and History and the Division of the Museum of History entered into an MOA for the treatment of three houses and archaeological remains that will be affected by improvements at Arsenal Park in Fayetteville. The abandonment and demolition of public schools remained a concern, and efforts to cooperate with the Department of Public Instruction were instituted.

Environmental review staff participated in workshops covering topics as varied as affordable housing and lead-based paint. Sondra Ward, administrative assistant, fully automated the environmental review tracking process and log. All National Register sites were digitized and entered into the statewide Geographic

5 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

Information System maintained by the Center for Geographic Information and Analysis.

During April and May 1996 the HPO identified traditional African American crossroads communities and hamlets statewide. The project was funded by NCDOT, which faces environmental justice issues when road projects affect historic minority communities whose resources do not meet the criteria for National Register eligibility and are not protected by historic preservation rules and regulations. Tracey Brown, an intern from the University of North Carolina at Greens- boro, contacted local historians, planners, and preservationists in each of the one hundred counties to develop a map of traditional communities and prepare a report on her findings. An outgrowth of the project are plans to consider developing an African American task force on historic preservation in the coming year.

Statewide Historic Preservation Planning

In 1995 the culmination of five years of staff effort and citizen involvement resulted in the publication of Legacy: A Preservation Guide into the Twenty-First Century. Having been approved by the North Carolina Historical Commission and the National Park Service, Legacy is a comprehensive historic preservation plan for the state and constitutes official state policy for historic preservation. Continu- ing public involvement and allowance for program adjustments are built into the state preservation plan.

Research and Public Education

Research historian Michael Southern was guest speaker on North Carolina architecture and historic preservation topics at North Carolina State University, Meredith College, the Museum of History, and at preservation seminars in Hillsborough and Beaufort. He continued to develop computer database systems for rosters and indexes used by the section. Chief among the information publications he spearheaded was a complete series of county fact sheets outlining activity by the section. Mr. Southern also assisted staff in computer setups, training, and troubleshooting. With Catherine Bishir, he completed production of the manuscript, maps, and photographs of A Guide to the Historic Architecture of Eastern

North Carolina , which the University of North Carolina Press is scheduled to publish in October 1996. At two Tryon Palace symposiums, section administrator David Brook presented papers on the links between the state’s early preservation movement and the restoration of Tryon Palace. ARCHAEOLOGY BRANCH (OFFICE OF STATE ARCHAEOLOGY)

Land Archaeology

Lane Street Archaeology Facility. Steve Claggett, state archaeologist, prepared a successful funding and development plan that, with the support of NCDOT’s Program Planning Branch and the office of the secretary of the Depart- ment of Cultural Resources, secured a major Intermodel Surface Transportation Enhancements Act (ISTEA) matching grant for renovations of the Lane Street

6 Archaeology and Historic Preservation

archaeology facility. OSA is presently working with the department’s Capital Projects Unit and the design consultant on projected plans to complete the renovations in mid- 1997.

Records Management. A new “team approach” to processing paper and computerized site records, technical reports, and map information has been led by Dolores Hall. CGIA, through NCDOT, funded a technician position to help with the task. Moreover, Susan Myers reorganized the OSA survey report library. North Carolina Archaeology Home Page. Mark Mathis created the North Carolina Archaeology World Wide Web home page as a joint effort among OSA, the North Carolina Archaeological Society, and the professional North Carolina Archaeological Council.

Bethabara and the El Salvador. John Clauser, historic archaeologist, spent two months in the fall of 1994 studying the remains of the eighteenth-century brewer’s house and distillery at Historic Bethabara in Winston-Salem. Through late 1994 and early 1995, Richard Lawrence, head of the Underwater Archaeology Unit, Steve Claggett, and David Brook worked closely with special assistant attorney general Charlie Murray to resolve conflicting claims concerning investigations of the 1750 Spanish shipwreck El Salvador. New rivalries among potential salvors emerged in 1996 and may ultimately require resolution through the courts.

The Fox Site, Macon County. David Moore assisted two contract archaeologists with excavations at the Macon County Industrial Park complex. They worked with a combined paid and volunteer crew to document a thousand-year-old village site with human burials. The undertaking grew from a straightforward field project into a major political controversy for the OSA. The main point of contention was the treatment of human burials at the Fox site. The dispute was resolved through an agreement among the Commission of Indian Affairs, the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, and the Macon County Commission for the repatriation and reburial of multiple human remains from the Fox site.

Site Inventory and Review. Program statistics for the biennium include 2,022 archaeological sites added to the state inventory (of which 53 percent were recorded during compliance surveys) and 4,861 ER projects evaluated (up 12.5 percent from last period, which was 30 percent higher than the 1992-1994 biennium). A total of

26,674 terrestrial archaeology site records are in the OSA inventory as of July 1, 1996 (a 7 percent increase in the last eighteen months).

Field Projects. Archaeology field studies totaled 341 and included site inspec- tions for ER or grant projects, plus in-depth investigations related to protection of human burial sites. They included the salvage of a prehistoric ossuary in Currituck County (the West site, 31Ck22) and recovery of an eighteenth-century grave under a city sidewalk adjacent to St. James Episcopal Church—the latter project instigated at the request of the Wilmington police department.

Technical Assistance. Technical assistance was provided in 239 instances to citizens and agencies, including the NCDOT, the Tennessee Valley Authority, the National Park Service, the Eastern Band ofCherokee Indians, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, the Division of State Parks and Recreation, the U.S. Navy and Army (especially Fort Bragg), and the state’s Global TransPark Authority. OSA also worked closely with the federal Indian Gaming Commission on a new casino in

7 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

Cherokee (which, like the Macon County situation, involves construction impacts to human burials). Grants. HPF-funded grants included work at the Thomas Day House and archaeological surveys in Orange County and along the Pungo, Swannanoa, and upper Catawba Rivers and Contentnea Creek. Additional grant-supported archaeology was conducted at the African American Moravian St. Phillip’s Church in Old Salem, and at the Bechtler’s Mint and Nelson Mounds sites in western North Carolina.

Public Involvement. Lectures, site tours, and classroom presentations were provided by staff archaeologists in 341 instances and reached more than 4,400 people. The annual state fair exhibit, sponsored jointly with the North Carolina Archaeological Society, provided more than 30,000 citizens with information on North Carolina archaeology. Public volunteer efforts continued strong, for a total of 6,340 hours of donated labor. Dee Nelms oversaw staff involvement with the state fair and planning for the spring 1996 North Carolina Archaeological Society meeting at Town Creek Indian Mound State Historic Site—a very successful first attempt at a joint meeting with the Archaeological Society of South Carolina.

Staff presented or published papers on topics ranging from “Shell Middens on the Central North Carolina Coast” (by Mark Mathis, at the twenty-seventh Algonkian Conference in Chapel Hill) to "The Management of Archaeological Site Files in North Carolina" (by Dolores Hall and Almeta Rowland, in a National Park Service publication). OSA staff made presentations to national meetings of the Society for American Archaeology, the Society for Historical Archaeology, the Conference on Underwater Archaeology, and, locally, for the North Carolina Archaeological Society and the North Carolina Maritime History Conference. OSA also instigated an extensive program of outreach to Randolph Community College (Asheboro) through a technical advisory committee for development of a historic preservation curriculum, which now involves all branches of the Historic Preser- vation Office.

A series of educational workshops with the Commission of Indian Affairs was held in early 1996, along with several training workshops for NCDOT staff and consultants. The state archaeologist, on behalf of Secretary McCain, made a keynote address at the annual North Carolina Indian Unity Conference.

National Register of Historic Places. Nominations included the Alexander Hogan Plantation in Duke Forest (Orange County). Other NRHP work involved compilation of data for a multi-site Uwharrie Lakes archaeological district and transfer of all NR-listed, study-list, and Determination of Eligibility sites to the state’s GIS map system.

Underwater Archaeology

Underwater archaeological survey activities included 75 field projects, which resulted in the documentation of 42 new sites. The Underwater Archaeology Unit (UAU) conducted several cooperative projects with students and staff from East Carolina University’s Program in Maritime History and Nautical Archaeology. Those projects included investigation and documentation of the remains of Shell Castle, a Federal-period trading center located on a small island near Ocracoke

8 Archaeology and Historic Preservation

Inlet; and of the Confederate gunboat Curlew in Croatan Sound. During the summers of 1994 and 1995 the UAU and a group from ECU conducted an extensive survey and documentation project of Civil War shipwrecks offshore of Fort Fisher. Participants in the project prepared detailed site maps of the blockade-runners Arabian Stormy Petrel, and Condor, the Union gunboat Aster, the U.S. Army troop , transport Flambeau-, and a shipwreck previously identified as the powder vessel USS Louisiana but now thought to be the steam packet Twilight (lost in 1865). The National Park Service’s American Battlefield Protection Program provided funding for the project. The UAU assisted members of Surface Interval Diving Company and the National Park Service in recovering a large anchor from the wreck of the Olive Thurlow in Cape Lookout Bight. The anchor is currently undergoing conservation treatment at the unit’s Fort Fisher Preservation Laboratory and will eventually be placed on display near the lighthouse at Cape Lookout. Unit staff were involved in the investigation and management of several terrestrial sites in the Lower Cape Fear area, including the colonial plantation of Sedgeley Abbey near Carolina Beach and Confederate earthworks on Virginia Creek in Pender County and in Carolina Beach. In November 1994 the Naval Historical Center awarded the UAU a grant in the amount of $32,000 to prepare a management plan for U.S. Navy shipwrecks in North Carolina waters. The unit hired Claude Jackson to undertake the study.

More than one thousand New Hanover County middle-school students participated in the UAU’s educational outreach program “Hidden beneath the Waves.” Two kits are now in use, each of which provides video presentations, historical research exercises, quiz games, replica artifacts, and a four-foot scale model of a wreck lying on the bottom of the Cape Fear River.

At the 1995 Conference on Underwater Archaeology (CUA) in Washington, D.C., unit staff presented a symposium and workshop, and at the 1996 CUA in Cincinnati staff hosted a symposium, organized and co-directed a public session, and presented papers. Staff members presented a paper on North Carolina’s underwater archaeological education program at the 1994 Southeastern Archaeol- ogy Conference in Lexington, Kentucky. In March 1995 the unit hosted a meeting of the North American Society of Oceanic History, which was held in Wilmington. In addition, unit staff made 177 presentations to various school, civic, and professional groups. The UAU continued to maintain the underwater archaeology exhibit building, which received 74,945 visitors during the two-year period.

In August 1994, with the assistance of an Army National Guard helicopter, members of the UAU placed an underwater plaque on the USS Huron Historic Shipwreck Preserve. Working in cooperation with the town of Carolina Beach and the Federal Point Historic Preservation Society, unit staff constructed an octagonal gazebo at Carolina Beach. The town provided funds for the gazebo.

The efforts of volunteers, who contributed 2,252 hours of their time, greatly assisted the UAU staff. Included in this group is Dr. William Sleight, who completed ten years of volunteer service in September 1995 and continues to assist the UAU on a regular basis.

9 Through the use of federal and state historic preservation tax credits, combined with federal low-income housing credits, the owner of the 1922 Colonial Lodge (top) in Warrenton rehabilitated the building into housing for the elderly. Members of the staff of the Archaeology and Historic Preservation Section are responsible for reviewing applications for such tax credits. The Savage-Combs House (center ) in Edgecombe County was a local consultation project of the section during the biennium. The Pinehurst Hotel (bottom) stands amid the Pinehurst Historic District; during the biennium the National Park Service designated the district a National Historic Landmark. The section consulted with officials of the town of Pinehurst and the NPS to help effect the prestigious designation. Archaeology and Historic Preservation

RESTORATION BRANCH Highlights of projects that were completed or which had major work accomplished during the biennium are as follows:

Northeastern Region. Roof repairs were completed in 1995 at the Adkin High School Gymnasium in Kinston, Lenoir County. Structural repairs were made to the Beaufort Train Depot in Beaufort, Carteret County (1995), and a new red tile roof was installed on the building in the spring of 1996. Design guidelines for the Beaufort Historic District were completed in the fall of 1995 and adopted by the Beaufort Historic Preservation Commission in the spring of 1996. A brick and wrought-iron fence was constructed around the perimeter of the Bennett Cemetery in Bayboro, Pamlico County, in 1995. A conditions-assessment report on the Cedar Grove Cemetery in New Bern, Craven County, was completed in the fall of 1995. An architectural study of the Masonic Theatre in New Bern was prepared in 1994, and additional work including exterior painting, roof repairs, and electrical work was undertaken during 1995 and 1996. The Singleton Primitive Baptist Church in Washington, Beaufort County, was moved to its new site in 1994 and received a new roof in 1995.

In 1995 local authorities hired a restoration architect to compile a historic- structures report and oversee restoration work at the Cupola House in Edenton, Chowan County. A new HVAC system was installed, and masonry restoration work on the chimneys and foundation was completed. A historic finishes analysis of the interior of the Barker House in Edenton, Chowan County, was completed in April 1996. Stabilization and “mothballing” of the Buckland Plantation in Buckland, Gates County, was completed in September 1994. A new roof was installed on the auditorium at the former Murfreesboro High School in Murfreesboro, Hertford County, in 1995, and a new HVAC system was installed in the auditorium. Two chimney stacks at Hope Plantation near Windsor in Bertie County that were destroyed in the winter of 1993 were rebuilt in the spring of 1995.

The first phase of the life safety improvements at Lake Mattamuskeet Lodge in Hyde County was completed in 1995. A new reproduction lantern handrail was fabricated and installed on the Ocracoke Lighthouse in Hyde County in September 1995. The restoration of entrances at the Old Martin County Courthouse in Williamston was completed in July 1994, and a new roof was installed on the building in the spring of 1996. Masonry restoration work at the Roanoke Canal Arts Center in Roanoke Rapids, Halifax County, was completed in 1995. A record- photography project at the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse in Edenton was undertaken in 1994. A historic structures report on the Walter Reed house in Murfreesboro, Hertford County, was completed in 1995, as was the first phase of interior renovation work. The exterior painting of the Whalehead Club in Corolla, Dare County, was completed in 1994, and the exterior doors were restored in the spring of 1996.

Southeastern Region. The rehabilitation of a house at the Country Doctor Museum in Bailey, Nash County, was completed in 1995 and will be used for educational and support facilities. Repair and replacement of windows at the Giblem Lodge in Wilmington, New Hanover County, was completed in 1994, and the first phase of interior work, which included the completion of the first floor and structural work on the second floor, was completed in 1995. The Nash County

11 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

Cultural Center (formerly a church) in Nashville was dedicated in July 1995 following extensive renovation.

Southern Piedmont Region. Architectural plans for the rehabilitation of the Fair Barn at the Pinehurst Harness Track in Moore County were completed in 1995. Repair and replacement of the roof at the Olive Branch Lodge in Rowland, Robeson County, was completed in 1995. Repairs were made to the Shaw House in Southern Pines, Moore County, in 1995, and the Auman log corn crib was acquired and moved to the site in the spring of 1996.

Northern Piedmont Region. Repair and restoration of some of the grave markers in the Chapel Hill Cemetery were completed in the spring of 1996. Masonry repairs to the front wall of the Thomas Day House (Union Tavern) in Milton, Caswell County, were undertaken, and the replacement of the interior structural system was completed in June 1996. The exterior of the Jacob Holt House was repainted in the spring of 1996. The reconstruction of the original double-tier front porch and the reroofing of the Calvin Jones House in Wake Forest, Wake County, were completed in the spring of 1996. In 1995 the first floor of the Mordecai House in Raleigh, Wake County, was made accessible to the disabled. The restoration of the Laurel Root Gazebo at the William A. Moore House in Mount Airy, Surry County, was completed in 1995, and water run-off systems were improved and repairs were made to the sill of the house. Restoration of the stonework on the House of Memory at Oakwood Cemetery in Raleigh, Wake County, was completed in 1994. The first phase of structural repairs at Yates Mill in Wake County was completed in 1995.

Western Region. A feasibility study and conceptual plans for the North Colony Building at the Broughton Hospital Museum were completed in 1995. Restoration work on the facade and the north gable end, as well as on the two-story porch at the William Deavor House in Pisgah Forest, Transylvania County, was completed in 1996. A feasibility study for the rehabilitation of the Perkins House in Morgan- ton, Burke County, was completed in 1994. The restoration of the dome and roof structure of the Jackson County Courthouse in Sylva was completed in the fall of 1995. The restoration of the kitchen wing at the Johnson Farm in Hendersonville, Henderson County, was completed in the spring of 1996, and the restoration of the granary was completed in the early summer of 1996. Foundation and framing repairs at the John Wesley McElroy House in Yancey County were completed in the summer of 1996. Many of the 113 state restoration grant recipients requested and received technical services offered by the restoration specialists and consulting architect. Technical information was given 553 times to project architects, contractors, and local preservation groups. State grant-in-aid projects and CLG and non-CLG grant projects were monitored one or more times for a total of 643 times. (For a complete listing of grant projects, see appendix 11.)

On 111 occasions the Restoration Branch staff reviewed plans and specifications for 60 state-owned properties listed on the National Register under G.S. 121- 12(a); the branch provided technical services for 108 properties 429 times. Many of the state-owned building projects required a considerable amount of staff time. Examples include the State Capitol, the Heck-Andrews House, the Old Education Building, the Spencer Shops Roundhouse at the North Carolina Trans-

12 Archaeology and Historic Preservation

portation Museum in Spencer, and the Tryon Palace complex in New Bern. Plans and specifications for 202 environmental review projects were reviewed 304 times, and technical information was provided for 252 projects a total of 611 times.

Two hundred five Tax Reform Act (TRA) applications were reviewed during the two-year period, representing an anticipated expenditure by the owners of $38,993,791. This was an increase from 177 projects reported last period, although there was a drop from the anticipated expenditure of $51,701,753 reported last period. (For a complete listing of Tax Reform Act projects, see appendix 12.) The National Park Service reviewed 205 applications, with 198 approved, 4 denied, and 3 returned. Information and application packets were sent to 508 owners and/or developers of historic properties in 78 counties during the period. The consulting architect, Tim Simmons, provided assistance and/or reviewed 44 historic properties subject to the Americans with Disabilities Act accessibility guidelines.

Local consultation services for municipal and county government agencies and for private individuals continued to be a popular main work item for the branch staff. Technical advice was provided a total of 8,838 times for all projects in 99 out of 100 counties—an increase from 6,898 projects during the last biennium. Major local projects included the B. F. Grady School in Duplin County; Beverly Hall in Edenton, Chowan County; St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Bath, Beaufort County; the Alamance County Courthouse in Graham; and the Lowndes House (Flat Rock Playhouse) in Flat Rock, Henderson County. The Restoration Branch staff also advised a number of Main Street towns throughout the state.

During the biennium the Restoration Branch staff gave 64 talks and slide lectures, conducted 7 workshops on historic preservation tax credits, coordinated 3 masonry workshops, helped to coordinate a workshop on historic paint finishes, and participated in a preservation-related activity for children at the North Carolina Museum of History in Raleigh. SURVEY AND PLANNING BRANCH

Publications, preservation planning projects, presentations, and workshops head the list of highlights of Survey and Planning Branch activities during the 1994-1996 biennium. The Handbook for Historic Preservation Commissions in North Carolina a special joint project of State , the Historic Preservation Office and Preservation North Carolina, was published in the fall of 1994 under the guidance of preservation planner Melinda Wall. Early in 1995 the revised edition of North Carolina Historic Preservation Office Survey Manual: Practical Advice for Record-

ing Historic Structures , by senior architectural historian and survey coordinator Catherine Bishir and former survey coordinator Ruth Little, was completed and printed. With staff guidance, three architectural survey publications resulting from surveys previously supervised by the branch were issued: Greensboro: An Archi- tectural Record , by Marvin A. Brown; The History & Architecture of Lee County, North Carolina, by J. Daniel Pezzoni; and The Historic Architecture of Wake

County, North Carolina , by Kelly A. Lally. The latter book won the Society of Architectural Historians’ 1996 Antoinette Forrester Downing Award for excellence in published architectural surveys.

In addition to the preservation commissions handbook, several preservation planning projects supervised by branch staff were completed. These included

13 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

preparation of design guidelines for the town of Beaufort and Wake County and the substantial revision and reissuance of the late 1970s publication Conservation and Historic Preservation Easements. Also with staff guidance, case studies of rural properties in Craven, Currituck, and Orange Counties were undertaken for a publication sponsored by the Albemarle-Pamlico Estuarine Study on open space design guidelines. Numerous outreach programs conducted by the branch during the biennium included staff presentations at regional and national conferences. At an April 1995 Chicago conference on preserving the recent past, branch supervisor Claudia Brown presented a paper titled “Preserving the Suburbs: Back to the Future?” which appeared in the conference publication Preserving the Recent Past. At an October 1995 Washington, D.C., workshop on applying National Register criteria for evaluation, environmental review specialist Debra Bevin led a session on evaluating highway projects in rural areas. Senior architectural historian and survey coordinator Catherine Bishir presented a paper titled “Guardians of a Glorious Past: Preservation and Political Power in North Carolina, 1890-1910” at a September 1995 seminar on historic preservation at the University of Virginia, as well as at a conference on southern landscapes sponsored by the National Park Service and the Center for the Study of the American South and held in Oxford, Mississippi, in April 1996. Preservation planner Melinda Coleman coordinated and played a primary role in two statewide conferences for local commission members and staff. Numer- ous other workshops conducted by the branch during the biennium included a survey and National Register workshop for consultants and staff. Branch staff also helped fulfill the state Historic Preservation Office’s role as cosponsor of Preserva- tion North Carolina’s 1994 and 1995 annual conferences by working with other branches to coordinate all of the conference tracks and deliver many of the presentations.

With no substantial changes in federal funding for the Survey and Planning grant program, survey activity continued through the biennium at the pace established early in the 1980s, increasing the total number of the state’s compre- hensively surveyed counties to 57. Seven major survey projects in municipalities were completed. The survey and National Register program generated 1,034 rolls of photographic film and 6,089 photographic prints for National Register nominations and publications, processed by staff photographer Bill Garrett and accessioned by photography clerk Chandrea Burch. Twenty-six thousand eight hundred twenty-five negatives were accessioned in the State Archives. To facilitate use of survey data, staff continued the task of producing computerized county indexes of the approximately 70,000 survey files maintained by the branch, with indexes created for 19 counties: Beaufort, Bladen, Brunswick, Camden, Carteret, Catawba, Chowan, Craven, Currituck, Dare, Gates, Halifax, Hertford, Onslow, Pamlico, Pasquotank, Pender, Perquimans, and Washington.

National Register activity produced 73 new listings, including 14 historic districts, representing 36 counties. Multiple property nominations were submitted for Duplin County, for early modem architecture in Raleigh associated with the faculty of the North Carolina State University School of Design, and for historically and architecturally significant churches and church-related cemeteries in

14 Archaeology and Historic Preservation

Lincolnton. Also during the period, the federal Landmark Advisory Committee approved for National Historic Landmark designation Pinehurst Historic District in Moore County and Bentonville Battleground in Johnston County. Two hundred and three properties and districts were added to the study list during the eight meetings of the North Carolina National Register Advisory Committee held during the biennium.

National Register listings declined approximately 27 percent from the last biennium’s total of 93. This was despite an increase in staff National Register activity. This phenomenon can be attributed to a rise in the number of complex and time-consuming nominations, such those as for cemeteries and rural districts. Moreover, the ratio of property-owner or “novice” nomination preparations (compared to those prepared professionally) increased sharply, requiring more staff attention. During the biennium the cost of private- sector consultants may have topped the upper price limit of what property owners were willing to pay.

Melinda Coleman, preservation planner, continued to advise the 73 local historic preservation commissions active in North Carolina, including one new local historic preservation commission established in Waynesville during the biennium. She reviewed and commented on 88 local designation reports, attended public hearings, and conducted individual workshops for local commissions. She also reviewed 51 applications for historic designation under the state building code.

Branch staff provided 122 lectures and public meetings on aspects of North Carolina architectural history and the state’s preservation programs. Staff conducted 578 field visits to historic properties (an increase of 98.6 percent from the previous biennium) and provided more than 7,700 consultations in response to public requests for information and assistance relating to historic properties and their preservation (an increase of approximately 64 percent). Staff also reviewed 73 Part 1 applications for certification of buildings as historic under the federal historic preservation investment tax credit program.

EASTERN OFFICE

During the biennium the Eastern Office handled requests from all 23 counties in the eastern region. A dramatic increase in the number of preservation or restoration consultations occurred—from 1,620 in the 1992-1994 reporting period to 3,481. The number of site visits likewise rose—from 575 to 887—largely as the result of an increase in restoration projects funded through the state grants program. The number of public programs and lectures fell slightly from 81 to 67.

For the first time in the Eastern Office, the 23-county region was divided into assigned counties for each specialist in order to facilitate rapid response to public requests. The size of the division staff and the range of available services increased in 1994 when two new positions assigned to the Archives and Records Section were located in the Humber House. David Mitchell was transferred from the central office in Raleigh to assume the position of records management analyst, and Billy Allen was hired as a field microfilm technician. The Eastern Office now represents the Archaeology and Historic Preservation Section, the Historic Sites Section, and the Archives and Records Section.

15 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

County survey projects and National Register nominations constituted the bulk of work accomplished through assistance from federal grant moneys. The Lenoir County survey was completed and is being prepared for publication. Other survey projects in the eastern region included documentation of an African Ameri- can neighborhood in the town of Beaufort and reconnaissance surveys of Tyrrell and Northampton Counties sponsored by the Chapel Hill-based Conservation Fund.

National Register of Historic Places district nominations during the period ranged from the small agricultural village of Harrellsville in Hertford County to Weldon (Halifax County), the nineteenth-century transportation hub of northeastern North Carolina. In addition to districts, numerous individual sites were nominated, illustrating the range of historic property types found in the Coastal Plain—from the ca. 1935 Sunny Side Oyster Bar in Wilhamston (Martin County), one of the state’s most venerable eateries, to Hicks Field, a 1939 Works Progress Administration baseball facility located in Edenton (Chowan County).

Eastern Office staff worked on several projects with classes in the Public History and Interior Design Departments at East Carolina University (ECU), including plans for the restoration for St. Thomas Episcopal Church in Bath and the adaptive rehabilitation of the former Turnage Theater in Washington, both in Beaufort County. In addition, members of the staff supervised five student interns from ECU working for course credit and practical experience in projects ranging from documenting the African American Ware Creek Rosenwald School (Beaufort County) to mapping landscape features at Cedar Grove Cemetery in New Bern (Craven County). Staff continued to develop special projects such as the survey of the town of Jackson (Northampton County) in conjunction with a countywide reconnaissance survey and the documentation and disassembly of the antebellum Purvis Slave Quarters in rural Martin County for relocation to the North Carolina Museum of History.

16 ARCHIVES AND RECORDS SECTION

David J. Olson, State Archivist and Records Administrator

This biennium has been one of change and challenge for the Archives and Records Section. For the first time since 1981 the section underwent a major reorganization. On May 1, 1995, the agency encompassed but two branches as the former Technical Services Branch was officially absorbed into the two larger branches—Archival Services and Records Services. This streamlining of the section was the result of more than a year and one-half of study by the state archivist and a committee of representatives from all areas of the operation. This report will reflect those changes, and there will no longer be a Technical Services Branch report.

Challenges to the program came from various sources and reflect the rapidly changing world that records administration has become. The first one came in the form of various threats to the preservation of the section’s holdings. In April 1995 and in May 1996 events that can accurately be termed near-disasters transpired. The first one was the failure of the building’s heat, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system during a time of unseasonably hot weather. While efforts were made to keep the collection as cool as possible, temperatures soared into the eighties in the stacks, and consequently a serious outbreak of mold occurred in the collection. Then, a little more than a year later, rainstorms occurred in the midst of a roofing project on our building and resulted in leaks that again threatened the collection. The quick reaction of the Department of Cultural Resources led to inmate assistance in the clean-up and the use of a commercial recovery company to regulate the humidity in the building. As a result, in the second situation the kind of mold outbreak that occurred in the 1995 event was averted. However, those events taken together are a sobering reminder that the maintenance of basic environmental conditions for the section’s collection is a never-ending challenge. We have attempted to meet that challenge more effectively through an energetic preservation task force made up of several professional staff members from the section. Major initiatives have been launched to better protect the collection. They include programs for emergency preparedness and some designed to ensure the permanency of the microfilm in our security vault. At the end of the biennium James Reilly, a national expert on image permanence, conducted a study of the section’s microfilm programs. He indicated full support for our techniques and suggested improvements to avoid deterioration of our microfilm through redox degradation.

In addition, preservation of some of the section’s greatest treasures was facilitated by a grant to the Friends of the Archives, the section’s support organization, and as a result the Carolina Charter, the George Washington letter of 1790 (welcoming North Carolina into the United States upon the state’s ratification of the Constitution), and Col. Isaac Avery’s famous "letter from the dead" all received special attention so that they might continue to inspire North Carolinians of the future.

The 1995 General Assembly passed the first major revision of the state’s public records law in many years. Known as Senate Bill 426, the legislation Forty-sixth Biennial Report

provides for better tools for accessing state information in a computer environment and also provides for quicker access to all government records and generally a lower fee for copying of such records. Much effort has transpired from both the section and the division to explain the provisions of this new legislation to our stakeholders throughout the state.

Perhaps the highlight of the biennium was the meeting of the National Association of Government Archives and Records Administrators (NAGARA) in Raleigh in July 1995. More than three hundred of our colleagues from throughout the nation came to Raleigh for the meeting. The entire staff of the section worked nonstop to make it one of the most successful NAGARA meetings ever. From all accounts it was a signal success.

The State Historical Records Advisory Board was very active during the biennium, and projects in the planning stage since 1993 came to fruition, among them receipt of a major grant for the advancement of archival training and to aid meritorious small projects through regrants of federal moneys. In addition, the National Historical Publications and Records Commission assisted our program by providing a grant that enabled the section to publish a well-received guide to state agency records. The publication resulted not only from the grant assistance, but also from an incredible amount of work from the staff of the Archival Services Branch.

The Friends of the Archives began additional fund raising for the support of our program. The development of a “Heritage Fund” will allow the State Archives to purchase needed materials that occasionally become available on the manuscript market. Along with the grant program discussed above, this has been a good biennium for the Friends. In spite of all of our challenges, it has been a good biennium for the section as well.

ARCHIVAL SERVICES BRANCH

This biennium brought notable changes and accomplishments to the branch. The organizational structure was altered, three new positions were funded, awards for outstanding service were received, several outreach and education initiatives were accomplished, progress in records preservation was made, significant publications were produced, and important strides in automation were achieved. Many of these accomplishments were made possible through the acquisition of grant funding and through the support of the Friends of the Archives and other organizations.

A major highlight of this reporting period was the completion of a National Historical Publications and Records Commission grant in the amount of $50,024, originally awarded in 1992, which enabled the branch to produce a comprehensive guide to state agency records in Archives’ custody. Following more than three years of effort, the Guide to Research Materials in the North Carolina State Archives: State Agency Records was published in November 1995. The guide (885 pages) consists of 185 agency histories, 2,974 series descriptions, and an index. In addition, as a direct result of the project, the Archives now has a USMARC conversion program for the Manuscript and Archives Reference System (MARS), an updated subject thesaurus and materials thesaurus, and an authority file for state agency names that is compatible with national standards.

18 Archives and Records

Also in the realm of grant-related work, the State Archives was selected to participate in a multi-institutional and international research project. In Novem- ber 1995 the Research Libraries Group (RLG) chose the Archives as one of seven institutions (others were the Harvard University Law Library, the New York Public Library, the New York University Law Library, Princeton University Libraries, the University of Leeds [United Kingdom], and the University of Penn- sylvania Law Library) to create a digital research collection pertaining to relation- ships within and outside marriage in the United States and the United Kingdom from 1815 to 1914. The goal is to bring together diverse source material from both sides of the Atlantic to create an on-line virtual collection of laws, court cases, petitions, pamphlets, and so on, with links from finding aids to images of actual documents and/or “live” texts of documents. The collection will be available world- wide through the Research Libraries Information Network (RLIN). The project will continue for two years and is the first attempt to digitize part of the Archives’ holdings.

Other accomplishments in the area of information management included developing an Archival Services’ home page on the division’s server in the spring of 1996, purchasing and implementing use of the AIIMS software module for Search Room registration, automating the branch’s bookkeeping system, installing a multiplexer to improve the use of computers at the Old State Records Center, and obtaining a laptop computer for use by the correspondence archivist in replying to written requests for information directly from the Archives’ stacks. Internet access to MARS, while available at the start of the biennium, was unavailable at the time of this report because of problems involving security and multi-user overload. It is hoped that an impending changeover to a new departmental mainframe will restore that access. An Internet mail address on the division’s server was created for the correspondence archivist and registrar, and a policy for answering e-mail inquiries was developed. In addition, the branch’s computers were wired for eventual connection to the division’s local area network.

The branch continued to benefit directly from the generous support of the Friends of the Archives. On December 28, 1995, as a result of its successful grant application, the Friends received $35,000 from the state’s local historical organizations grant program. Most of that money ($30,000) will be used to purchase electronic document imaging equipment and to provide conservation treatment for records in archival custody. The remaining portion will be used for purchasing collections for the Archives.

Other projects, activities, and acquisitions made possible by support from the Friends of the Archives included the workshop “Beyond the Basics II: Selected Records and Research Tools in the North Carolina State Archives,” held Septem- ber 24, 1994; an Institute for Advanced Research, held June 1-3, 1995; the acquisition of a variety of valuable original prints and maps; the purchase of important documents, including the Felix J. Williams Civil War letters and a Reconstruction- era letter dealing with the removal of Confederate graves from the National Cemetery in Raleigh; and the acquisition of an 1840s image of John W. Ellis. The Friends also underwrote several internships during the period.

Several other organizations contributed to the support of the branch. The Captain Samuel A. Ashe Chapter of the United Daughters of the Confederacy

19 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

purchased for the Archives a reprint of Walter Clark’s Histories of the Several Regiments and Battalions from North Carolina in the Great War, 1861-’65, as well as copies of microfilm from the National Archives that contain assorted records relating to Confederate service. The Kellenberger Historical Foundation funded a grant to purchase a previously unknown letter written by Gov. Arthur Dobbs in New Bern to the earl of Halifax on June 1, 1757. The Private Henry L. Wyatt Camp of the Sons of Confederate Veterans and the Colonel Robert F. Webb and Lieuten- ant Wilson Bailey Chapters of the Military Order of the Stars and Bars paid for the publication ofNorth Carolina Petitions for Presidential Pardon 1865-1868 (An Index).

Outreach was an integral component of branch operations during the biennium. Two successful workshops, as mentioned above, were carried out, as well as numerous tours of the branch. Archival Services staff performed diligently and dependably in helping host the annual meeting of the National Association of Archives and Records Administrators (NAGARA) held July 26-29, 1995. In addition to hosting the annual meeting, branch personnel compiled and edited the 1993 and 1994 NAGARA Statistical Reports for State Records Management and Ar- chives programs. The archivist supervisor, the information management archivist, the branch supervisor, the conservator, and the private collections archivist continued to teach graduate students in the public history program at North Carolina State University. The branch supervisor and the iconographic archivist participated in a public service broadcast by the Agency for Public Telecommunications on March 28, 1996. That call-in television program, titled “State to State,” dealt with the mission of the Division of Archives and History and the State Archives in particular.

Reorganization of the Archives and Records Section from three to two branches increased the number of personnel working in Archival Services by five employees. The conservation laboratory, the description component of the Secre- tary of State land grant records project, and the Photographic Services Subunit (all formerly part of the Technical Services Branch) were transferred to Archival

Services effective May 1, 1995.

In other areas relating to staff changes, the 1994 session of the General Assembly funded two new archivist Is and one new processing assistant IV to assist with requests for defunct post-secondary school and entitlement records. The legislature also directed that the branch’s two security officer positions be redefined to exclude law enforcement certification as a job requirement. The positions were reclassified as processing assistant IVs effective July 1, 1994. Internal promotions and outside employment opportunities also wrought some important staff changes, especially in the Reference Unit, during the spring of 1996. At the end of the biennium the branch was comprised of thirty-five employees. Personnel in the branch included: 1 branch supervisor, 1 archivist supervisor, 6 archivist Ills, 7 archivist IIs, 10 archivist Is (including one part-time position), 4 processing assistant IVs (including 1 part-time position), 1 office assistant IV, 1 office assistant III, 1 data control clerk IV, 1 conservation assistant, and 2 photographer IIs (including 1 photographer assigned from the Survey and Planning Branch).

Despite the alterations in branch configuration and staff, branch personnel worked well together to make progress in several areas. Two successful inventories

20 Archives and Records

of holdings were completed in January of each year. The findings of these inventories and work on the state agency guide project resulted in 927 cubic feet of records being deaccessioned with the approval of the North Carolina Historical Commis- sion in May 1995. In the fall of each biennial year several senior staff members helped review applications for the State Grants Program administered by the department. The North Carolina Genealogical Society presented an award for outstanding service to the Search Room staff in October 1994. In April 1995, when the HVAC system malfunctioned, staff worked diligently and effectively to maintain preservation of the records. Gov. James B. Hunt Jr. presented the branch supervisor the Order of the Longleaf Pine for helping to coordinate preservation efforts; the award recognizes outstanding public service to the state of North Carolina. Operating through June 1995, a “mold patrol” directed by the branch’s conservator was especially effective in finding outbreaks of mold in the records for treatment and removal. In May 1996 the staff again acted quickly and efficaciously when leaks caused by roof repairs threatened the records. Because of these efforts, and the hiring of a commercial firm to dry damp walls, no water damage to records occurred and no mold growth on the records was discovered.

Reference activities continued apace during this biennium. A total of 31,522 researchers visited the Search Room between July 1, 1994, and June 30, 1996. They used 70,276 reels of microfilm and 80,883 bound volumes, individual items, or Fibredex boxes of records. Inquiries by telephone for the period totaled 7,314 calls, and the correspondence archivist and other reference staff handled 29,147. The number of transcripts produced for the public remained high, with 4,874 requests handled, and the number of veterans’ records provided was 213. Receipts collected this biennium totaled $315,582.56, an 11 percent increase over the previous two- year period. Future receipts—and researchers—will benefit from the acquisition of another reader/printer obtained for the microfilm room during this reporting period.

Although considerable effort was focused on the state agency guide project, arrangement and description work moved ahead as well. A total of 397 cubic feet of state agency records was completed for the Utilities Commission, Chief Clerk’s Office, Case Files, 1891-1948; the Department of Natural Resources and Commu- nity Development, Elevated Map Files, 1975-1985; and the Department ofAdmini- stration, State Construction Office, Construction Contracts, 1920-1984. Ongoing projects include the Supreme Court, Original Cases, 1930-1939; the State Highway Commission, Blue Ridge Parkway, Residue (Claim) Files, 1935- 1970s; and oversight of the project to microfilm and describe in MARS the Secretary of State land grant records, ca. 1720-1950. From the Governor’s Office nearly 330 cubic feet of records were transferred, nearly 240 cubic feet of records were arranged and described, and requests for information on unworked governor’s records more than doubled since the last biennium, totaling 3,039 over the last two years. Arrange- ment and description work completed included: Gov. James G. Martin’s General Correspondence, 1987; Gov. James B. Hunt Jr.’s and Gov. James G. Martin’s Appointments to Boards and Commissions, 1980-1992; Governor Martin’s General Counsel and Legal Counsel Files, 1985-1992; and the files of the Housing Commis- sion, 1980-1986. (A list of all state agency records accessioned during the biennium, including records of the Governor’s Office, may be found in appendix 15, item 1.)

21 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

County records for twenty counties were arranged and described and transferred for use by researchers in the Search Room. They totaled forty-four volumes, 532 Fibredex boxes, and one manuscript box, most of which were for Chatham, Guilford, Henderson, Jones, Mecklenburg, Wake, and Wayne Counties and the town of New Bern. Thirty-nine folders and eleven volumes from Beaufort, Bun- combe, Camden, Caswell, Craven, Johnston, and Wayne Counties were received, described, and accessioned from other than official sources (CRX). The total number arranged and described was 210 cubic feet. (For a list of county and municipal records accessioned, see appendix 15, items 2 and 3.)

The Local Records Subunit worked throughout this two-year period on the eleventh edition of the guide to county records, which is scheduled for printing in the fall of 1996. This forthcoming edition will enumerate new material found in previously described records and additional county records accessioned since 1988.

In the domain of private collections, much effort was devoted to appraisal work, acquisition negotiations, agency history research, and reorganization of the Secretary of State records. Among the forty-seven collections or additions arranged and described were the Mary Eliza Elliott Papers, the Fort Caswell Papers, the John Green Hall Family Papers, the Samuel F. Patterson Papers, the William S. Price Jr. Papers, the Smith-Alford Papers, the William McCoy Stubbs Family Papers, the Daniel Ransome Taylor Papers, and additions to the Robert L. McMil- lan Papers, the Romulus A. Nunn Papers, the James H. Pou Papers, the Alfred M. Scales Papers, and the Lura Self Tally Papers. Fourteen finding aids were completed during the biennium, including those for the Julia Cooper Papers, the Garrison Family Memoir, the John Green Hall Rice Plantation Book, the Ivey Family Papers, the Irwin Kremen Exhibition Catalogs, the Mervin Lane Manu- scripts, the Martha Eleanor Moseley Collection, the Levi Woodbury Piggott Papers, the Raleigh Building and Loan Association Account Books, the Richardson Family Papers, the Fumifold M. Simmons Papers, the Sutton Family Papers, the Evelyn Whitlow Papers, and the Felix J. Williams Papers. (A list of private collections accessioned is found in appendix 15, items 16 and 17.)

Arrangement and Description archivists worked and described a total of 900

cubic feet of records between July 1, 1994, and June 30, 1996. During the period the unit responded to a total of 3,821 reference requests.

Interns and volunteers continued to be a mainstay during the reporting period. Twenty-four volunteers contributed 3,541 hours. Microfilmers from the Genealogical Society of Utah contributed the bulk of these hours, as did Dr. Thornton Mitchell, who "retired" as a volunteer at the end of the biennium. Fourteen interns also assisted with various projects, coming to the branch from area colleges and universities (Appalachian State University, Campbell Univer- sity, Duke University, Meredith College, North Carolina State University, Peace College, Salem College, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) through programs provided by state government, the Institute of Government, or their own institutions. Projects assigned to interns included entering data into MARS, arranging and describing records, indexing records, working collections in the Non-textual Materials Unit, and providing support for the state agency and county records guide projects.

The Non-textual Materials Unit was strengthened by the addition of the photography laboratory as a subunit, bringing the total number to four full-time employees and one part-time employee. Work completed this period included transferring H. Lee Waters’s motion picture films of North Carolina towns to videotape, acquiring additional negatives from the Raleigh News and Observer newspaper through 1989, and preparing a hard-copy index to the Conservation and Development, Travel and Tourism Collection, 1937-1949. Progress continued on duplicating the deteriorating Albert Barden Collection acetate negatives and researching and identifying North Carolina’s photographers from 1842 to 1941. A new record player, an additional 35 mm camera, and two file cabinets to house negatives were purchased for the unit as well. There were 6,966 reference requests and 27,062 photographic replications prepared during this biennium. (A list of non-textual materials accessioned this biennium is found in appendix 15, item 14.)

Production in the Photographic Services Subunit, including Survey and Planning Branch work, required the development of 1,356 rolls and 4,110 sheets of black-and-white film and the duplication of 23,806 prints. Laboratory staff sent out fourteen rolls of film for color processing, provided 488 color prints, and completed 4,880 slide duplicates. On-location photographic assignments for the two-year period continued steady at ninety-three. Archival copy negatives produced from the Albert Barden Collection and other collections totaled 507, and the number of negatives added to the branch’s files was 2,575. In the conservation laboratory—a most welcome addition to the branch this biennium—items were treated in the following manner: 153,149 deacidified, 11,501 repaired, 10,118 encapsulated, 6,123 cleaned, and 4,672 brushed for mold. A database to track items treated by the laboratory was developed during this period. Two new pieces of equipment were purchased to facilitate the construction of phased boxes to protect records in Archives’ custody.

In the bailiwick of special projects, there were 870 requests for information from the Cemetery Survey project. The number of completed counties increased by two to seventeen. Requests for information concerning the Biographical Directory of the General Assembly project continued steady, totaling 142. Questionnaires sent to sixty-four new legislators had a 50 percent response rate. Research requests increased slightly from the last biennium to 310. The number of maps arranged and described totaled 167, and 213 new reference books were processed. (A list of maps accessioned during the past two years is found in appendix 15, item 10.) New databases were created to handle many aspects of the aforementioned projects.

The section’s reorganization provided a full-time data control clerk to support branch and information management computer operations. The Secretary of State Land Grant Records Project progressed during the period: entry of data for all Tennessee land grant records, in addition to those for Alamance through Johnston Counties, was completed. In addition, microfiche indexes of the Tennessee land grants were developed during the reporting period. The Confederate pension applications project was completed, providing 40,886 additions to MARS. At the close of the biennium the total number of entries in MARS was 287,930, despite the necessary rebuilding of indexes that resulted from weather-related electrical failures and surges that beset the State Archives in May 1996.

Archives and Records

Throughout the biennium the branch’s staff continued to make significant strides in preserving and making available North Carolina’s documentary heritage. Provided with adequate support to carry out the mission of the State Archives under General Statutes 121 and 132, Archival Services will deal effectively with the challenges presented by rapidly evolving records technology, the severe shortage of stack space, and marginal environmental conditions for records storage caused by aging facilities and HVAC systems. Initiatives are under way to redress those problems and, it is hoped, will come to fruition within the next biennium.

RECORDS SERVICES BRANCH

Sectionwide initiatives in the areas of planning, reorganization, staff reas- signment, electronic records issues, records preservation efforts, and attempts to acquire additional space for records storage required significant amounts of staff time during the biennium. In addition, the branch continued its responsibilities in providing a full range of records management services to state and local government agencies and the university system. Among the functions performed by branch staff are inventorying and scheduling public records for permanent retention or ultimate disposal; providing micrographic services in such areas as source document, security, and preservation microfilming, processing and quality control testing, and consultation and technical assistance; providing for the secure storage of semiactive noncurrent records of governmental agencies; and offering advice and assistance to public officials throughout the state regarding efficient records management practices and records-keeping responsibilities.

Reminiscent of problems related to wet records at the close of the last biennium, torrential rains in late August 1995 caused the backup of a drain outside the State Records Center and a resulting wetting of a group of records stored on two lower levels of the building. With assistance from several Archival Services employees, Records Services staff separated, interleaved, rehoused, and dried files. Ultimately only one file suffered significant permanent damage.

Advances continued in the branch on the fronts of technology, staff training, and professional activities. The branch as a whole made a major breakthrough in the technology arena through the purchase of a number of personal computers and printers during the biennium, and many staff also gained access to electronic mail carried through the Internet. Substantial funds were spent in computer training for staff, including not only courses in word processing but also in the use of more sophisticated software. As the biennium closed, wiring and hardware were in place to give staff access to the World Wide Web and to a local area network. In the next biennium staff will investigate and implement new technologies for such functions as publicizing the work of the branch, communicating more effectively with public officials throughout the state, and streamlining records scheduling processes.

Branch staff conducted 107 training workshops for state agency employees in Raleigh and state and local government and university system employees in locations across the state. Among the subjects of these training sessions were files and filing, micrographics, and records management principles and procedures. Because of the popularity of the workshops held at the State Records Center, an additional day of training was added in June 1996 to accommodate interested state employees.

25 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

The proliferation of scanning systems, computers, and electronic formats has not, as predicted, lowered the amount of paper records created, filed, and stored by public agencies. In fact, predictions of the “paperless office” have been replaced with the reality of growing paper files across government offices. Other factors such as court orders also have forced agencies to keep records series long past the date of scheduled destruction. In addition, a number of county officials have requested that records scheduled for permanent preservation be transferred to the custody of the Division of Archives and History. Those factors, coupled with the critical shortage of space at the State Records Center, gave impetus to a variety of efforts to secure additional space within Wake County and in other parts of the state for the storage of inactive public records. At the biennium’s close, none of the actions had provided needed relief; however, pending final approval was an agreement with the federal government for the transfer to the state of the former nurses’ dormitory at the Veterans Administration Hospital at Oteen, near Asheville. The Division ofArchives and History would renovate that facility and use it as a western regional records center. Even if that plan comes to fruition, however, it will not alleviate the pressing need for a new, modern records center facility in Wake County.

The severe space shortage just described, the continuing proliferation of paper records, and the growing challenge of managing electronic records were important issues during the biennium for the State and University Records and Records Center Unit. Staff continued to provide records storage and retrieval, records management scheduling and related services, advice and assistance regarding records technologies, and training through workshops for state agencies and the University of North Carolina system institutions of higher education. Staff also participated, under leadership at both the division and section levels, in the formulation of policies and procedures to govern the creation, use, and preservation of electronic records and to meet the challenge created by an amended G.S. 132 for wider public access to all public records in North Carolina in both paper and electronic formats. Those activities occurred despite turnover or loss affecting seven of the unit’s positions.

Delays occasioned by the need to transfer records to a newly acquired storage annex during the previous biennium and by difficulties in obtaining consistent vendor service for the removal of records scheduled for destruction contributed to the significant backlog of records awaiting pickup and transfer from state agencies. This problem, a chronic one for several years, reached an acute phase in June 1995 when nearly 9,800 cubic feet of records were stacked up in various state agencies awaiting transfer to the State Records Center. Through the more consistent removal of records scheduled for destruction by a new recycling vendor and by a maximum effort of the State Records Center Subunit staff, this backlog was reduced to about 900 cubic feet by January 1996. At the end of the biennium the backlog totaled 1,207 cubic feet.

During the biennium State Records Center staff transferred from state agencies a total of 41,580 cubic feet of records for storage, a figure that includes the greatest such volume for one year in the history of the branch. Nearly three-quarters of the biennial total (30,590 cubic feet) was transferred in the second year of the reporting period. Another 5,963 cubic feet of records were moved back to agencies from the Records Center, chiefly to those which have their own storage

26 Archives and Records

facilities. A total of 35,240 cubic feet of records was destroyed (also a record total for this category), and 79 cubic feet were transferred to the Archives. Some 43,491 requests for file retrievals were received, resulting in 52,784 searches for records; 50,732 records were refiled; and total reference services numbered 103,516. The Records Center served a total of 4,957 visitors during the biennium including agency personnel retrieving agency records, state and county government staff delivering records for storage and microfilming, and Department of Revenue staff assigned to servicing of individual income tax and other revenue records. The work on new, updated, or amended records retention and disposition schedules for state agencies resulted in the addition or revision of 3,740 records series. In the same category for schedules within the institutions of the University of North Carolina system, 10,588 records series were added or revised; most of those schedules and records series came from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, which continued to implement a records management program funded originally by the National Historical Publications and Records Commission. Indi- vidual records analysts held 582 consultations on records schedules and related issues with state agency records officers and staff; eighteen consultations were held with records officers from colleges and universities in the University of North Carolina system.

The SDIR (Scheduled Disposition of Inactive Records) Program continues to encourage accountability for the timely transfer or destruction of records by state agencies, to monitor those activities within state agencies, and to report on those dispositions and the resulting cost savings to officials in state government. During the biennium, state agencies transferred to the Records Center or destroyed on-site nearly 51,000 cubic feet of records, freeing costly office space of noncurrent records, with equivalent cost savings of $1,591,305—calculated only in terms of new filing cabinets that did not have to be purchased.

The Local Records and Imaging Unit saw the greatest changes in terms of structure and staffing during the biennium. Two significant changes were the restructuring of local records field services following the addition of two positions and the merging of all imaging functions of the Archives and Records Section into a single subunit. During the short session of 1994, the General Assembly appropriated funds for two new positions: a records management analyst II and a processing assistant IV (field microfilmer). The new positions were assigned to the Eastern Office of the Division of Archives and History in Greenville to serve public officials in the eastern portion of the state and to complement the work of a similar component in the division’s Western Office in Asheville. Also included in this appropriation were desperately needed travel funds, which have allowed field microfilmers from each of the field offices and, to a lesser degree, from the Raleigh office to work in local offices for much of the year, providing critical security microfilming services. The funds also have enabled records management analysts to provide on-site records management consultation visits and training workshops to public officials throughout the state. The May 1995 sectionwide reorganization added several major components to the imaging functions of the branch, including the traditional laboratory duties of microfilm processing, duplication, and quality control testing; the North Carolina Newspaper Project; and preservation microfilming initiatives. The consolidation of those imaging functions has made possible the cross-training of staff in diverse micrographics operations and has facilitated

27 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

increased emphasis on strict quality control procedures and testing. The changes relating to personnel and function necessitated the restructuring of the unit into two separate subunits—one responsible for local records operations and the other for all imaging functions. Because of the loss of a state agency analyst position, one of the records management analysts in the former Local Records Unit transferred to the State and University Records and Records Center Unit to coordinate state and university records scheduling functions.

The Local Records and Imaging Unit’s program of microfilming photocopies of real estate conveyances has resulted in a backlog that will take some effort to eliminate. The backlog, totaling more than twelve hundred real estate conveyance volumes at the end of the biennium, is the result ofthe success of a program initially implemented (because of a lack of travel funds) to send field staff to individual counties to film those important records. At the present time, approximately fifty registers of deeds send copies of those records to be microfilmed for security. Despite the recent reallocation of a former Records Center Unit staff position to the Local Records Imaging Subunit, it has been difficult to reduce the number of records awaiting filming.

Environmental problems continue in the microfilm vault, and analysis of the microfilm stored there indicates that the less than ideal conditions over the past two and one-half decades have contributed and will continue to contribute to film degradation. Particularly disturbing is the deterioration of the older acetate-base film, which must be copied onto more stable polyester-base film stock before the chemical breakdown of the film makes copying impossible. Although research shows that the deterioration of acetate-base films is inevitable, colder, more stable environmental conditions can delay this process. Micrographics consultant James Reilly’s recommendations concerning the need for a major recopying and film-ton- ing program will be implemented in the next biennium to the extent that resources in terms of staff and supplies are available. Contributing to these problems is the aging humidity, ventilation, and air conditioning system that has experienced several major breakdowns during the biennium. Stopgap measures, including replacement of various system parts, as well as the use of a commercial dehumidi- fier, have been utilized to maintain adequate environmental readings, but a new, upgraded system for the security microfilm vault is required to bring to accepted national standards the facility’s environmental conditions for the storage of microforms of enduring value.

Completion of microfilm projects was of prime importance during the past two years. The Imaging Subunit filmed 3,147 reels of 16mm microfilm (4,106,191 images) and 245 reels of 35mm microfilm (143,186 images) of state agency records; 1,027 reels of 16mm microfilm (1,944,195 images) and 261 reels of 35mm microfilm (52,281 images) of county records; and 319 volumes of municipal records on 94 reels of 16mm microfilm and 13 reels of 35mm microfilm (7,894 images). Finally, staff filmed 205 volumes of church records on 9 reels of 16mm (9,434 images) and 37 reels of 35mm microfilm (27,722 images). The unit inspected, labeled, listed, and filed in the security vault 11,540 reels of state, county, municipal, and church film and produced 39,636 aperture cards for state and local agencies.

The branch continues to provide security storage of microfilmed records created in local offices. There were 6,252 reels of microfilm received from clerks of

28 Archives and Records

superior court throughout the state under the auspices of the Judicial Department Act of 1965. The number of reels received from registers of deeds totaled 4,111 reels, and 921 reels were received from other local officials for security storage. Under the auspices of a second three-year grant (1994-1996) from the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), the agency continued participation in a joint effort with the North Carolina State Library as part of the United States Newspaper Program. Since 1991 staff have performed cataloging, fieldwork, and preservation microfilming of the state’s newspapers. Microfilming totals for the North Carolina Newspaper Project rose again this reporting period with the filming of more than 996,000 pages of original newspapers, resulting in 520,625 images on 779 reels of film. Late in the biennium, despite concerns over continued federal funding to granting agencies such as NEH, staff submitted a grant proposal requesting continued funding of the project through April 1999; it may be the spring of 1997 before final word is received concerning the proposal.

One of the important components of the section’s 1995 reorganization was the allocation of one staff position to the preservation microfilming of collections held by the State Archives. Among the records filmed were the McAllister Family Papers, the James Vann Comer Collection, records from the Colonial Governors’ Papers, a selection of marriage records that will be used in conjunction with the agency’s participation in the Research Library Group’s records digitization project and grant, and records from the Secretary of State Land Grant series. During the period, project staff arranged and filmed more than 29,000 folders of Secretary of State Land Grant records; in November 1994 staff reached the 100,000-record mark in this long-term project to arrange, film, and describe that important series. During the period, land grant records from Dobbs, Duplin, Durham, Edgecombe, Forsyth, Franklin, Gaston, Gates, Glasgow, Graham, Granville, Greene, Guilford, Halifax, Harnett, Haywood, Henderson, Hertford, Hoke, Hyde, Iredell, and Jack- son Counties were preserved on film.

Microfilm services for the section and other agencies remained fairly stable; the duplication and processing of microfilm totaled 26,358 reels of film consisting of 9,129 silver negatives, 1,738 silver duplicates, and 15,491 diazo duplicates. In addition, staff performed 4,295 quality control tests to evaluate microfilm density, resolution, and residual hypo; 568 of those procedures were for other units and institutions.

Challenges continue to face the branch in the areas of adequate space for the storage of records; preservation concerns about the storage of permanently valuable microforms; significant backlogs of state and local records needing reformat- ting; advances in technology, particularly as it applies to the creation, management, and preservation of electronic records; and the need to train staff to meet the challenges of changing technologies. In addition, the cut by approximately 10 percent this biennium of already inadequate supply funds threatens the branch’s ability to perform critical functions. Despite those concerns, the Records Services Section continues to provide assistance to public officials and citizens in the promotion and preservation of the state’s documentary heritage, the safeguard- ing of legal rights and obligations, and the efficient management of its public records.

29 HISTORIC SITES SECTION

James R. McPherson, Administrator

During the biennium, visitation amounted to 1,662,872 persons, an increase of 27,788 over the previous reporting period and a new all-time biennial record. The first year was exceptional at 889,570 guests, in itself a trend-setting pace, and sites recorded 773,302 visitors in the second year. The latter figure would have been greater but for an estimated loss of 84,000 because of the closing of the North Carolina Transportation Museum at Spencer Shops for several months of restoration and transfer of the Elizabeth II to another agency.

The period was one of progress at a number of sites and for the section as a whole. In 1995 the program celebrated its fortieth anniversary as a state entity and part of the Division of Archives and History with several special activities, including a reception in the State Capitol, a traveling exhibit, a birthday party with a proclamation by Gov. James B. Hunt Jr., and a major presence at the North Carolina State Fair. Emery Advertising of Raleigh presented a much-needed permanent graphic identity package for the sites to begin using in time for the anniversary.

Historic sites received some four million dollars in state repair and renovation funds, thanks in large part to the active support of Secretary of Cultural Resources Betty Ray McCain and Deputy Secretary Elizabeth F. Buford, and by the end of the period more than seventy long-awaited projects, such as vital roof repairs at seven sites, were under way throughout the state. Another long-pending project that came to completion was the 3,000-foot stone seaside revetment at Fort Fisher, funded by state and federal dollars. The 1767 Chowan County Courthouse, a National Historic Landmark, became part of the renamed Historic Edenton site. The section played a key role in the founding of the North Carolina Civil War Tourism Council, which among other actions held two major public conferences on Civil War history and heritage travel. The Polk Memorial celebrated the year-long bicentennial of the birth of James K. Polk in a well-received series of popular and scholarly programs. Other notable events were the publication of major works on sites by outside scholars Joffre Coe on Town Creek and Mark Bradley on Benton- ville, the 130th anniversary of the battle at Bentonville, the start of construction at the Wolfe visitor center, and completion of wayside displays and a shelter at Brunswick Town.

The North Carolina Transportation Museum at Spencer, arguably the largest venture ever undertaken by the section, continued to be a focus of activity. Directed by assistant administrator Rob Boyette, multifaceted work at and for the museum progressed toward opening of the greatly improved and expanded facilities in fall 1996. Cooperation among the nonprofit North Carolina Transportation History Corporation, other private donors, the Departments of Cultural Resources and Transportation, and the General Assembly made possible the successful matching and use of $4.5 million in federal funds. The site received $1.6 million of the aforementioned repair and renovation funds, as well as a half-dozen new positions in preparation for its expansion. Contractors completed restoration of the Bob Julian Roundhouse. Other volunteers, consultants, and staff substantially Historic Sites

finished planning and production of exhibits and audiovisual programs for the building, restoration of some two dozen major pieces of railroad rolling stock (such as locomotives), research on Spencer Shops and the rolling stock, refurbishing of the existing museum, and renovation of outside areas of the rail shops.

Overall visitation at the sites exceeded 1.6 million for the second biennium in a row, and more than an additional one million citizens were exposed to the sites at various shows and conventions at which staff presented historical programs and hosted exhibits. Some 6,725 organized school groups (up 10 percent from the previous biennium) visited the sites and counted 216,532 students among them (up

1 1 percent). Site personnel made off-site presentations at schools before another 62,860 students and teachers. More than 70,000 people in general groups came to the sites, and off-site programs for general audiences reached more than 135,000 listeners (up 131 percent). More than 1.06 million people attended various shows and conventions at which sites had exhibits.

More than 6,800 people (up 24 percent) volunteered at the sites, donating nearly 133,000 hours (up 31 percent) of service. To duplicate that amount of service with full-time staff would have required in excess of thirty people. Court-ordered community service and inmate hours amounted to another 18,630 hours, the equivalent of more than four full-time positions. Bentonville and the Transporta- tion Museum had by far the most volunteer help, while the latter facility and Town Creek Indian Mound made the greatest use of inmates. Required community service proved especially valuable at Historic Bath and Reed Gold Mine.

Results in visitation at individual sites were mixed compared to 1992-1994, with gains at a majority of sites exceeding declines at a few sites—even in light of losses resulting from construction at the Transportation Museum. Fort Fisher, as expected, retained its first place (332,565 visitors) during the biennium. Elizabeth II was second with 174,680 guests, and the Transportation Museum maintained its third position (144,631). Reed Gold Mine (106,109) was fourth, Town Creek Indian Mound (92,221) rose to fifth, and Bentonville Battleground (72,340) occupied the sixth position. More than 45 percent of all visitors attended the first four sites. Among sites with significantly increased visitation during the period were Horne Creek Farm (up 71 percent with the leading increase for the second biennium in a row), Bentonville (up 54 percent, largely the result of a commemoration of the 130th anniversary of the battle), Brown Memorial (33 percent), House in the Horseshoe (29 percent), Somerset Place (23 percent), and Town Creek Indian Mound (18 percent). The last two sites also had substantial gains in 1992-1994. Sites with more modest increases or attendance nearly the same as in the previous period included Alamance Battleground, Aycock Birthplace, Historic Bath, CSS Neuse, Duke Homestead, Fort Dobbs, Fort Fisher, Historic Edenton, Historic Halifax, Iredell House, Polk Memorial, Reed Gold Mine, Vance Birthplace, and Wolfe Memorial.

Sites and support groups garnered more than $1.1 million in grants and cash gifts, as well as in-kind contributions valued at $161,450. The Department of Cultural Resources, through its special local historical awards, was a major benefactor of sites’ support groups, which themselves aided the sites. Other major cash donors included the J. Havens Charitable Trust, $5,000; the Mid-East Com- mission, $8,500; the Natural Heritage Trust Fund (two awards), $54,100; Johnston

31 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

County, $5,000; the Johnston County Tourism Authority, $50,000; the American Battlefield Protection Program (two awards), $48,651; Dibrell Brothers, $5,000; the U.S. Small Business Administration, $16,000; Norfolk Southern Corporation (three awards), $85,000; the Kenan Foundation, $50,000; Rowan County (three awards), $90,000; the city of Salisbury, $5,000; Central Carolina Bank (two awards), $10,000; Phillip Morris (two awards), $20,000; Security Capital, $5,000; Duke Power Company (three awards), $21,000; Clifford Peeler, $10,000; Ralph Bostian, $5,000; the Mary Duke Biddle Foundation, $5,000; and Albert Michel, $40,000. The major in-kind contribution was twenty-two acres of land adjacent to the CSS Neuse, given by William Evans and appraised at $153,800. Among artifact gifts were an apple cider press, a secretary, a mahogany banquet table, a high chair, a forging machine, and a brake test stand.

The section endured various budget cuts and increasing vandalism during the period and attempted to mitigate the latter situation with more alarms and vigilance. The General Assembly transferred administration of the Elizabeth II to the Roanoke Island Commission, an independent agency under the Department of Cultural Resources, after awarding the site five million dollars for various capital improvements. In Edenton the Northeastern Historic Places Office, part of Historic Sites since 1978, closed in early 1995 when funding for the office coordinator was eliminated from the budget.

Each home office staff member (and many field employees as well) functioned both as part of a branch and team and in appropriate administrative, supervisory, or technical capacities, serving the various sites and the overall program. Enumer- ated below are representative duties of the administrator and staff of the Raleigh office who served under his guidance. Individuals are cited within the organizational scheme; team and branch leaders performed a variety of planning, supervisory, and budgetary functions for their entities in addition to highlights mentioned below.

Following discussion of the home office, this report summarizes selected activities at the various sites, general direction of which falls under the Operations Team. Staff members from several sites and the home office frequently participated in the completion of projects at particular sites, with the Transportation Museum being a prominent example of such cooperation during the period.

ADMINISTRATION

The administrator coordinated and oversaw all internal and external activities of the agency, including communications with news media, the legislature, other governmental bodies and officials, site support groups, and various private organizations and citizens. His internal responsibilities included general direction and in some cases detailed supervision of personnel, budget, operations, training, interpretation, site development, and archaeology. He gave special attention to liaison with legislators, budget requests and reductions, promotion of the historic sites program and its fortieth anniversary, the Elizabeth II, funding Fort Fisher’s revetment, creation of the Civil War Tourism Council, and a ten-year plan for the section. He was active nationally and regionally in the American Association for State and Local History. The administrative assistant aided the administrator, coordinated personnel matters for the section, and oversaw secretarial activities.

32 Historic Sites

The section secretary provided secretarial support in the home office, supervised temporary workers, processed travel documentation, and served as assistant editor of the monthly Staff Bulletin.

Management Services Branch The branch head gave administrative and financial management expertise as budget officer for the section, with an annual operating budget of some five million dollars. She coordinated the final work and closing of the Northeastern Historic Places Office and served on numerous sectional and external groups and committees.

INTERPRETATIONS TEAM

The assistant administrator and chiefofinterpretation coordinated, directed, and reviewed all interpretive team work across the state, led sectional ten-year planning, and served on a planning group for Ice Plant Island and the Elizabeth

II. After guiding a task force that coordinated efforts at the Transportation Museum, he became acting director of the museum and devoted countless hours to successfully overseeing all aspects of the venture, as well as the duties of state, contractual, and volunteer personnel working on the complex project. He also was president of the North Carolina Museums Council (NCMC) and state representative for the Southeastern Museums Council (SEMC).

Archaeology Branch

The branch identified, interpreted, and protected archaeological resources with sixty survey/testing projects, excavations, monitoring projects, and inspec- tions at various sites. Field projects included excavation of five slave buildings at Somerset Place and of the blacksmith shop at Reed Gold Mine, testing and excavation at Town Creek, and clearance at the Transportation Museum. The branch processed twenty-five collections of new artifacts, conserved hundreds of existing section artifacts (many for Spencer’s roundhouse), and consulted with or provided identification for more than one hundred individuals or other agencies. Members of the staff spoke to school classes, civic groups, and national meetings and aided special projects at various sites.

Collections Branch

A new registrar, who transferred from the North Carolina Museum of History, augmented the branch. Conservation (some of it contractual) was completed on five pieces offurniture from Historic Edenton, various pieces from Canary Cottage at Brown Memorial, and items from Spencer. Staff served on departmental committees charged with selecting new software and standardizing procedures for collections management, updated CUMAS records for several sites, prepared a strategic plan for collections management at Duke Homestead, helped two sites obtain grants, and gave leadership to NCMC and SEMC. The branch selected artifacts for proposed exhibits at Fort Fisher and Vance and spent much time working on exhibits and rolling stock for the roundhouse at the Transportation Museum.

33 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

Design and Production Branch

Roundhouse exhibits in Spencer occupied most branch time. Working with contractors, the staff coordinated the project from design through fabrication with installation about to begin. Staffprovided research, editing, and graphics; produced three videos and two audio shows; and furnished artifacts. The designer made smaller exhibits for Polk Memorial, Somerset Place, Town Creek, and House in the Horseshoe. Other branch projects involved an audiovisual program for Historic Bath; videos on the North Carolina Awards and other topics; exhibits design work for Halifax, Vance Birthplace, and Wolfe Memorial; and ten reprinted brochures and two calendars of events.

Education Branch

The branch developed three in-service training workshops and presented them four times; an assessment of training needs was also under way. Staff completed a two-year visitor survey project at all sites and were active in the Visitor Studies Association. The branch produced workshops and a handbook on standards for visitor services; coordinated two series of history bowls; began a committee on costume standards, for which two sites produced approved plans for historic costuming; and prepared an exhibit on costumes for Halifax. The branch head became a state-certified public manager, chaired the professional development committee of NCMC, and was active in various professional societies.

Research and Planning Branch

For the Transportation Museum, the staff coordinated research on rolling stock, organized writing by outside authors and edited two new books (forthcoming in late 1996), and edited text for exhibits and other publications. For Brown Memorial the staff greatly condensed, submitted, and resubmitted to the Univer- sity of North Carolina Press a manuscript on C. H. Brown and her school. The minority specialist led a group seeking to improve attendance at the memorial, wrote a grant for the effort, and with consultants produced the best summer special event held there in many years. The staff studied African Americans at Fort Fisher, analyzed minority interpretation at seven sites, served on the Polk Bicentennial and divisional World War II symposium committees, and produced newsletters and other section writings.

OPERATIONS TEAM

The operations team supervised and supported all daily operations, as well as capital improvements and repairs at sites across the state. The chief and operations specialist handled permanent and temporary personnel, purchased and distributed supplies and equipment, and processed site reports and budgetary matters. The team continued to oversee performance evaluations for more than one hundred employees. The task became more difficult with loss of the specialist’s position to budgetary restraints, and the management services branch took on some of the specialist’s duties. The team secretary supported the chief and gave particular attention to purchasing, data entry, and budgetary management.

34 Historic Sites

Architecture Branch

This branch was created to offset loss of the former Property Development Branch to departmental duties. The restoration specialist became branch head. The new branch received a second position, an architectural specialist, to help handle greatly increased funding for repairs and renovations. That unprecedented funding led to the creation of two temporary positions and to the start of nearly one hundred construction projects during the biennium. The projects ranged from renovations of visitor centers to roof and masonry repairs and even to complete restorations of buildings. The branch managed capital improvements, repairs, and renovations; gave technical support to the section’s exhibits designer in developing construction documents; and trained docents in architectural styles.

Crafts Services Branch

Traveling technicians performed preventive and emergency maintenance at various sites and made repairs involving carpentry, plumbing, mechanical systems, painting, and electrical services. The craftsmen worked throughout the state, often in conjunction with other branches and site staffs. The branch also worked at Spencer and undertook some construction projects in-house in coordination with the Architecture Branch. ALAMANCE BATTLEGROUND

Visitation continued to increase, and the site received a special state grant to repair damage to statues and pave the parking lot. The site received free publicity from a program aired on C-Span, a national cable television channel, and cosponsored the winning state history bowl team in 1995. Planning began for renovation of the visitor center. The UNC Center for Public Television produced a historical drama, filmed in large part at Alamance and Tryon Palace, about the Regulators. The program was telecast throughout the state several times in 1996. That same year the site hosted its most successful spring event to date with an original drama about the Regulation and a reenactment, both produced by volunteers. The staff began a Teacher Appreciation Day event with nearby attractions.

BENNETT PLACE

Along with representatives of other historic places, the staff took part in formation of the North Carolina Civil War Tourism Council; and the manager became a director of that body. The council held two annual conferences and printed a color brochure that described various Civil War heritage tourism driving tours. The site received a cash donation and collection of Civil War books for the site library and a diorama. The staff added cavalry and naval interpretation to its fall programs, held history bowl contests, and hosted a well-received lecture by Mark Bradley, author of a new book on the Civil War. Workers renovated the reconstructed Bennett kitchen.

BENTONVILLE BATTLEGROUND

The program for the 130th anniversary of the battle in March 1995 attracted some twenty-five thousand spectators. At about the same time, the Bentonville

35 During the biennium the Historic Sites Section adopted a new logo ( top left) to denote its official correspondence, signage, and publications. In March 1995 the section commemorated the 130th anniversary of the Battle of Bentonville by mounting a special reenactment of aspects of the engagement; shown at top right are authentically costumed reenactors encamped in front of the Harper House. In October 1995 the section celebrated its fortieth anniversary. Gov. James B. Hunt Jr. and Secretary of Cultural Resources Betty Ray McCain (left center) gathered with other dignitaries at the State Capitol to cut a birthday cake in honor of the event. Throughout 1995 the section commemorated the bicentennial of the birth of Pres. James K Polk. Shown at right center is the Polk Memorial in Pineville during the commemoration. Notable improvements to Brunswick Town during the biennium included this new shelter and rest area ( bottom left). In May 1996 the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse ( bottom right) officially became part of “Historic Edenton,” a newly expanded state historic site comprised of several noteworthy buildings in the town. Historic Sites

Battleground Historical Association and the state Natural Heritage Trust Fund helped the site acquire 3.69 historic acres. Author Mark Bradley completed his long-awaited, very detailed history of the battle, Last Stand in the Carolinas ( 1996), after years of research and dozens of visits to the area. The site and the association received four more grants of significance, enabling the acquisition of additional historic acreage. The site also achieved National Historic Landmark status, thanks in large part to outstanding effort by the site manager and staff. Robbers struck the newly noted site three times, but most of the artifacts were recovered. BRUNSWICK TOWN The section completed and dedicated a handsome wooden shelter (with benches, a water fountain, and displays) and several dozen wayside exhibits that describe colonial and Civil War happenings at the site. The staff held its first Civil War special events, part of efforts to interpret Fort Anderson as well as colonial Brunswick. Another new event was an arts and crafts show assisted by the support group. In mid- 1995 the site received a four-passenger vehicle to haul handicapped guests around the acreage. All old underground tanks were removed, and the Forest Service did a controlled burn at the site. The manager completed the state public manager program. The support group funded writing and publishing of a brief history of the site.

CSS NEUSE AND GOVERNOR RICHARD CASWELL MEMORIAL

The staff began a number of major efforts to enhance the future of the site. Among them was rebirth of the site support group. Staff also wrote a successful grant for a study of conservation needs for the Neuse and received an assessment of the vessel. Engineering studies resulted in a recommendation for a $2.5 million enclosed shelter for the hull. William Evans gave the site some twenty-two acres of adjacent land. The staff worked on temporary exhibits, refurbished the Caswell building, and loaned artifacts to a San Diego museum. Research at the National Archives yielded substantial new data on the civilian and military crews of the Neuse. Workers installed new heating and air conditioning systems in the visitor center.

CHARLES B. AYCOCK BIRTHPLACE

In December 1994 the site officially opened a new addition to the visitor center, which provides an auditorium, an improved sales area, and other space. The site won a joint grant from the Division of Travel and Tourism to enhance publicity in conjunction with two other area sites; among products of the award were a public service ad via radio and a workshop for teachers. The Aycock staff held numerous living history programs and a volunteer appreciation picnic. Dr. Oliver Orr, principal biographer of Aycock, spoke at the birthplace. A new agricultural employee joined the staff and began work to enhance farm interpretation. The staff hosted a number of training programs and workshops for the site and section.

CHARLOTTE HAWKINS BROWN MEMORIAL

The Charlotte Hawkins Brown Foundation received in special grants from the Department of Cultural Resources fifty-five thousand dollars for furnishing Canary Cottage and ninety-five thousand dollars for marketing the site. At the end of the biennium, part of Dr. Brown’s furniture had been restored and placed in the cottage, which opened for tours. The second grant enabled an improved June festival, supported from the home office, to help raise visitation substantially in the fourth quarter of the period. In 1995 the site had a new special event for schoolchildren, “It’s About Time,” at which sixteen sites showed the diversity of the section’s program. Besides special events, the site gained attendance from more school and out-of-state visitors. DUKE HOMESTEAD

The site presented numerous special events, opened a new exhibit on vending machines, rotated artifacts and updated the main exhibits, and acquired a golf cart for the convenience ofhandicapped visitors. Workers renovated the packhouse, and R. J. Reynolds Tobacco Company and the Tobacco History Corporation provided a new, full-color brochure. With help from the North Carolina Humanities Council, the homestead held a temporary exhibit and symposium on rural African American yards and gardens. The staff also went on the Internet, completed a museum assessment survey, implemented a strategic collection plan, organized the large artifact storage area, and held an exhibition of watercolors by Bob Blake. The physical plant received various repairs.

ELIZABETH II

The staff performed annual ship repairs and haul-out, and the vessel sailed to Engelhard for a festival. The Elizabeth II had not sailed to another port in four years. New programs at the site included Coastal Heritage Days and a series of sea music concerts. On December 15, 1995, state officials removed the Elizabeth II from Historic Sites, ending a tenure begun and nurtured since before 1984 with America’s Four Hundredth Anniversary, and transferred administration of the ship and related shore facilities on Ice Plant Island at Manteo to the Roanoke Island Commission.

FORT DOBBS Among summer programs at Fort Dobbs were the sixteenth and seventeenth annual Cub Scout Day Camps. The staff also held its Colonial Living Day events, with one of them boasting eight demonstrations of period crafts and skills. Various section committees met at the fort, including the costume and regional management teams. The staff took part in joint programs with other museums, continued a regional history bowl, and prepared a draft costume proposal after considerable research efforts. Planning began for miscellaneous capital improvements.

FORT FISHER

In the last half of 1995 Misener Construction Company of Florida essentially completed the long awaited 3,000-foot stone revetment along the beach to protect

38 Historic Sites

the site from erosion. Final landscaping and amenities were finished in 1996, during which the structure successfully withstood the forces of Hurricane Bertha. The staff held anniversary programs in January each year, with the event of 1995 being an unusual night spectacle with a mock skirmish. A contractor used a National Park Service grant to develop a plan for new exhibits. Among other improvements at the site were a new roof on the visitor center and telecommunications equipment. The site received a new historical marker honoring Maj. Gen. W. H. C. Whiting, CSA, a key figure in the defense of the lower Cape Fear area. The site began use of inmate labor.

HISTORIC BATH

The Historic Bath Commission continued to support the site and received more than forty thousand dollars for site projects. Among them was a new orientation video, Bath, The First Town , jointly produced by the commission and the section with new projection and sound equipment to replace a film dating to 1970. A grant from the Department of Cultural Resources enabled the commission to print 172,000 color brochures for the site. Improvements to the physical plant included relocation of a historic smokehouse to the Van Der Deer House property and repairs or replacement of roof, paint, and climate control systems at several buildings. Colonial Homes magazine published a lengthy article on the site.

HISTORIC EDENTON

The site, formerly known as the Iredell House, and several local organizations benefited from various grants for preservation: fifty thousand dollars from the state for work on the Barker House, which began in 1995; ninety thousand dollars for repairs to the Cupola House; and funds for the James Iredell Association to purchase three vacant lots near the Iredell House. Staff development included new research on a variety of topics. The Iredell House held its first history bowl contest. The staff hosted and attended numerous workshops and staff development activities and began plans for new thematic tours of the expanded and renamed historic site. After months of study and negotiations, the 1767 Chowan County Courthouse became part of the site. As noted above, the Northeastern Historic Places Office in Edenton was closed in 1995.

HISTORIC HALIFAX

Halifax successfully negotiated a period of difficult transition with an energetic new manager but lost a key position because of budgetary restraints. An outside professional assessed the site and concluded that the staff was productive but too small. Yet the staff achieved much during the biennium, hosting the site’s best-attended Halifax Day and completing the first renovation of a major exhibit in the visitor center since 1976. The Historic Halifax Restoration Association financed Halifax Day and bought paint for historic buildings. The revitalized Historic Halifax Garden Club planted a period herb garden at Eagle Tavern. Maintenance projects included the painting of several buildings, plaster repairs, and roof work. Volunteers and inmate labor helped fill gaps, and innovative promotion led to new and significant gains in visitation in the closing six months.

Forty-sixth Biennial Report

HORNE CREEK LIVING HISTORICAL FARM Architects completed design work, and contractors began restoration of the farmhouse, the principal historic building on the site. The state paved the access road to the site, and the farm received a federal grant in the amount of sixteen thousand dollars (matched by the support group) for beautification of the entrance. State budget difficulties in 1995 resulted in a 50 percent cut in permanent staff, but fortunately that problem proved to be temporary. Restored to normal level, the staff produced a five-year development plan, revised the reconstructed dryhouse, completed a furnishings plan for the farmhouse, obtained new animals, and began plans for restoration of the double-crib log barn. Members of the Hauser family made available additional historic photographs. Visitation grew substantially.

HOUSE IN THE HORSESHOE

In October 1994 the site held a service to honor the late Mrs. Elizabeth Ives, a founder and perennial supporter, and planted a crepe myrtle in her memory. Staff produced a full costume proposal after substantial research. The plan was the first to obtain final section approval, and the staff began producing new costumes. Various buildings received considerable maintenance. Workers also did research and planning for a wayside exhibit to be funded by a special state grant to the support group. The site gained publicity from magazines, newspapers, radio, and television. With staff help a new Applebee’s restaurant in Aberdeen installed a permanent exhibit on the site.

JAMES K. POLK MEMORIAL

A year-long commemoration of the bicentennial of President Polk’s birth in 1795 occupied much of the period. Bicentennial events in Pineville, Charlotte, Chapel Hill, and Raleigh included a costumed President Polk, who appeared at many functions ranging from baseball games to historical occasions; a traveling exhibit; special souvenirs; corporate contributors; art and essay contests; a bus

tour; much publicity; a dinner/lecture; a symposium; a Polk family reunion; and !

several site special events. The staff also took part in two history bowls, built a i ramp for use by physically impaired visitors, and transformed the interior of the packhouse into an interpretive center. The staff also began costume research and training for new part-time interpreters. Technicians put the site film Who is Polk on video for wider distribution.

NORTH CAROLINA TRANSPORTATION MUSEUM (SPENCER SHOPS)

In addition to the physical improvements detailed above, the museum continued regular operations for most of the period, with record attendance in 1994- 1995. Among special activities were two national meetings (of the Southern

Railway Historical Association and the National Railway Historical Society); a host I of varied centennial programs; the passing of the Olympic torch past the site; and a model train exhibit, which attracted eight thousand visitors. At least 156 newspaper articles, besides other electronic media pieces, mentioned the museum. Much work continued with volunteers and the Transportation History Corporation

i Historic Sites

in implementing all parts of the new museum. The Barber Junction Depot was renovated as a new visitor reception center with a large new parking lot.

REED GOLD MINE

Section craftsmen repaired the stamp mill, placing the original wooden bull wheel in the museum. Site staff built new reproduction cradle and log rockers for use in demonstrations and made numerous repairs on the visitor center, residence, and other facilities. Work continued on a “talking rocks” trail to explain geology around Lower Hill with placement of most of the rocks. Staff planned a reconstructed blacksmith shop and stabilization of the mine’s engine shaft, refurbished several exhibits in the visitor center, began research on costumes, reenacted the discovery of the Shinn Nugget in 1896, completed a video promoting the site, and acquired a new space helmet and two North Carolina gold coins (purchased by Gold History Corporation) for the museum.

SOMERSET PLACE

The staff prepared a formal tour script and training program for guides. Among other improvements were a new furnace and pipes, a completed on-site study and report on a design for a restored formal garden, painting of the exteriors of outbuildings and the interior of the Collins Mansion, and production of several new exhibits and brochures. Contractors transcribed the Faunsdale Plantation Papers, reproduced portraits of Collins family members for the house, and removed a ring of trees to restore the border of the east lawn. Staff also sewed reproduction drapes and sheers for the mansion and restored the fence around the owners’ compound. Inmates reopened historic ditches near archaeological excavations. The Somerset Place Foundation funded several of those undertakings. THOMAS WOLFE MEMORIAL Along with Vance Birthplace, the memorial received the designation “Cul- tural Treasure” from the Year of the Mountains Commission. A volunteer program, begun with five members, expanded during the period. The long-planned visitor center project reached the construction stage, and by the end of the biennium the new facility was almost complete on the lot behind the Wolfe house. The section and site staff began revising exhibit plans to fit the proposed displays inside the structure. Site staff began a textile conservation program, worked with the Thomas Wolfe Society, held two Thomas Wolfe Festivals, and produced a draft of a new biography of the author. Section workers made various repairs to the house.

TOWN CREEK INDIAN MOUND

In December 1995 the site held a well-attended reception for Dr. Joffre L. Coe of Chapel Hill to mark publication of his Town Creek Indian Mound: A Native

American Legacy , which summarizes four decades of his archaeological research at Town Creek. The book has sold very well. Contractors completed repairs and renovation of the visitor center. Section staff and others continued work on repairing the burial hut and planning for new exhibits in the structure; the repairs involved considerable preparation by section archaeologists. Other improvements

41 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

included a water line to the ceremonial center and a pole fence along the top of the riverbank. The Archaeological Societies of North and South Carolina held a joint meeting at the site. Staff presented several workshops in the learning center and hosted two Native American heritage festivals.

ZEBULON B. VANCE BIRTHPLACE

Contractors completed long-awaited accessibility improvements in support of the Americans with Disabilities Act. Among the changes were a paved parking lot and drive at the visitor center, accessible rest rooms and new office space, a new picnic shelter with parking facilities for the physically impaired, revised walkways, and a new maintenance building. Two special events were canceled in late 1995 while those improvements were being made. The staff held a book-signing program to mark publication of the second volume of the division’s Papers ofZebulon Baird Vance. The site sponsored two regional history bowls, Pioneer Living Days, and other events.

42 HISTORICAL PUBLICATIONS SECTION

Joe A. Mobley, Administrator

During the 1994-1996 biennium the Historical Publications Section experienced a record level of sales. Receipts totaled $427,051. This figure surpassed by $88,734 the old record of $338,317 established in the 1992-1994 biennium. In the first fiscal year of the present reporting period receipts totaled $175,625. In the second year receipts soared to $251,426. The current certified budget for sales of publications is $177,327 per fiscal year. The extraordinary receipts for the latter half of the present biennium can be attributed in large measure to the success of State Troops and Volunteers: A Photographic Record ofNorth Carolina’s Civil War Soldiers, by Greg Mast. This large, well-illustrated book, priced at fifty dollars, sold one thousand copies in less than three months and underwent a second printing, which was accomplished in time to tap the Christmas trade.

In this biennium the section distributed 97,636 publications as follows: Documentary volumes 1,696 Governors’ documentaries 81 Fifty-year Review index 17 Ten-year Review index 24 Carolina Comments index 29 Books and pamphlets 55,880 Circulars 29 Charts and maps 1,977 Free material 33,969 Biennial reports 128 Back issues of Review 904 Back issues of Carolina Comments 330 Posters 268

The efforts of marketing specialist Frances Kunstling and the industrious work by the front office staff—Trudy Rayfield (supervisor), Loretta Hines, and Sandra Hall—contributed significantly to the section’s successful sales. Ms. Kunst- ling compiled the publications catalog, staffed exhibits, prepared press releases, and promoted titles. Ms. Rayfield and her staff accounted for the inventory and prepared a number of financial and budgetary reports and requests. They dealt with the general public, booksellers, authors, and members of the Advisory Edito- rial Committee. They typed manuscripts, logged in articles and book reviews, printed flyers and ads, and processed thousands of orders and pieces of mail. After twenty years of conscientious service, former front office supervisor Henri T.

Dawkins retired effective March 1, 1996. She was replaced by Ms. Rayfield. In addition to her duties with the Historical Publications Section, Ms. Dawkins served as assistant secretary-treasurer of the North Carolina Literary and Historical Association.

Eight issues of the North Carolina Historical Review (William A. Owens Jr., editor) were published during the biennium. The subscription level fluctuated from ,

Among a variety of noteworthy titles issued by the Historical Publications Section during the biennium were Onslow County: A BriefHistory by Alan D. Watson; a revised edition of Society in Colonial North Carolina, also by Alan D. Watson; and Sherman’s March through North Carolina: A Chronology, by Wilson Angley, Jerry L. Cross, and Michael Hill. The North Carolina Historical Review continued to enhance its reputation for high scholarship and reader interest throughout the period. Front covers of these publications appear above. Historical Publications

1,391 in July 1994 to 1,414 in January 1995. Currently, it remains steady at 1,392. The section published twelve issues of Carolina Comments (Robert M. Topkins, editor), which were mailed to approximately the same number of subscribers. The editors of the Review received 45 articles for consideration during the reporting period. Of these, 22 were accepted and 23 rejected. This represents a slight drop from the 48 articles submitted in the previous biennium. Presently, the Review has an article backlog of about six months. As a result of the skill and commitment of editor William Owens, the Review has regained the desktop publishing capabilities that it lost when former editor Kathleen B. Wyche resigned in January 1995 to take a position as head of the publications program of the North Carolina Museum of History. Mr. Owens replaced her at the Review in the following month. Substantial savings in production costs have been achieved by using the desktop publishing program Ventura to typeset the Review.

NEW PUBLICATIONS During the 1994-1996 biennium the Historical Publications Section issued eight new titles. Records of the Executive Council, 1755-1775, volume 9 of the Colonial Records of North Carolina [Second Series], edited by Robert J. Cain, appeared in November 1994. Volume 2:1863 of The Papers of Zebulon Baird Vance, edited by Joe A. Mobley, arrived in May 1995. The section published Alan D. Watson’s Onslow County: A BriefHistory in July 1995. It became the fourteenth volume in the county history series. Issued in January 1996 was Sherman’s March through North Carolina: A Chronology, by Wilson Angley, Jerry L. Cross, and Michael Hill. That book quickly sold out and was reprinted. A revised edition of Society in Colonial North Carolina, by Alan D. Watson, was published in April 1996 and continues to enjoy good sales. In conjunction with the Archives and Records Section, Historical Publications published in late 1995 a Guide to State Agency Records in the North Carolina State Archives. The office also compiled, edited, and published the Forty-fifth Biennial Report of the North Carolina Divi-

sion ofArchives and History: July 1, 1992-June 30, 1994. In addition to the above new titles, the section issued fifteen reprints and two annual catalogs. (For a complete list of reprints, see appendix 24, part A.)

Throughout the past two fiscal years, Historical Publications editors have demonstrated diligence and dispatch in completing tasks and have made significant strides in long-term projects. As head of the General Publications Branch, Robert M. Topkins has edited and seen through press a number of titles and continues work on several others, as well as serving as editor of Carolina Com- ments and of the division’s biennial reports. As an editor with that branch, William Lang Baradell has edited and seen through press Onslow County and Society in Colonial North Carolina. He presently is at work on volume 2 of The Papers ofDavid Settle Reid, which is slated for delivery to the printer in this fiscal year. Jan- Michael Poff, editor of the Governors Papers, has completed work on volume 2 of Addresses and Public Papers ofJames Grubbs Martin, Governor ofNorth Carolina and now labors on volume 3 ofAddresses and Public Papers ofJames Baxter Hunt Jr., Governor of North Carolina. Editor Lisa D. Bailey contributed her thorough proofreading skills to numerous manuscripts and proofs throughout the section and remains an indispensable component of Historical Publications’ operations.

45 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

The newest addition to the staff of editors, Donna Kelly, formerly of the State Archives, joined the section in February 1996 and has made considerable progress on volume 2 of The Papers ofJames Iredell. In addition to her duties with the section, she has accepted the editorship of the Friends of the Archives newsletter.

COLONIAL RECORDS BRANCH

In the Colonial Records Branch, supervisor Robert J. Cain completed final review and annotation of the documents for volume 10 of The Colonial Records of North Carolina [Second Series]. He also prepared finding aids to the Scottish Records Collection, continued preparation and entry into MARS of expanded descriptions of British Records, and continued locating documents for the Arthur Dobbs and Regulator volumes. Dr. Cain was ably assisted by editor Susan Trimble, who completed final corrections of Church of England documents, proofread those materials for volume 10, and entered all of that volume into the Ventura desktop publishing program. Ms. Trimble continued to process Regulator and Dobbs documents and began learning the NLCindex program in preparation for indexing volume 10. Trudy Rayfield, word processor, left the branch when she became supervisor of the section’s front office in March 1996. She was replaced as word processor by Leigh Anna Lawing Thrower, who has proved herself to be a valuable member of the program by her accurate transcriptions, research, verifications, and acquired working knowledge of Ventura and NLCindex. Editor William A. Owens left the branch in February 1995 to assume the editorship of the North Carolina Historical Review. As a result of financial cutbacks throughout state government, the Colonial Records Branch lost the editorial position previously occupied by Mr. Owens.

CIVIL WAR ROSTER BRANCH

In the Civil War Roster Branch, work proceeded on volume 14 of North Carolina Troops: A Roster. To date, Weymouth T. Jordan Jr., compiler and head of the roster project, has completed a 178-page history of the 58th Regiment; is now writing a history of the 60th Regiment; and has researched and reviewed materials from various sources pertaining to the 57th-58th and 60-61st Regiments. He has been assisted by editor Matthew Brown in researching, gathering, and organizing information. Mr. Brown also has begun an index for volume 14. Mr. Jordan has introduced desktop publishing into his operation by learning the Ventura program in a five-week self-training exercise and, using that program, has typeset in-house a 114-page roster for the 57th Regiment. During the reporting period, Mr. Jordan also published two articles on the Civil War in the North Carolina Historical Review.

ADVISORY EDITORIAL COMMITTEE

Dr. Glenda E. Gilmore of Yale University accepted appointment to a five-

year term on the Advisory Editorial Committee on July 1, 1995. She replaced Dr. Sally McMillen of Davidson College. Dr. William A. Link of the University ofNorth Carolina at Greensboro was appointed to a similar term, effective July 1, 1996. He replaced Dr. Robert M. Calhoon, also of UNC-G.

46 Historical Publications

OTHER ACTIVITIES During the recent biennium, the Historical Publications Section has made a concerted effort to update its equipment and improve it efficiency by incorporating computer technology into both its publishing operations and its accounting and inventory system. Three members of the staff—Mr. Owens, Ms. Rayfield, and Ms. Trimble (who also serves as the section’s representative on the division’s Internet committee and has tirelessly worked to place the section’s program online)—have attended training sessions on the operation of the Ventura desktop publishing program. That program will allow the section to typeset its publications in-house and deliver a PostScript file directly to a printer, thereby eliminating a step in the publishing process. The result is a large savings in time and money. Already, the North Carolina Historical Review is being published using the Ventura program, and the Colonial Records project and the Civil War Roster project have introduced Ventura into their production. The ultimate goal of the section is to have all its publishing operations performed using the Ventura program. The section is also in the process of adopting the computer indexing program NLCindex, which saves additional time and expense. A number of projects have been completed utilizing NLCindex.

In the past fiscal year, the section purchased two new computers for its front office. Under the capable supervision of Ms. Rayfield, the staff has made tremen- dous progress in updating and streamlining its inventory and accounting system by placing it firmly on an electronic, readily accessible basis. Ms. Rayfield, Ms. Hines, and Ms. Hall have undertaken at the State Personnel and Development Center the training necessary to effect the transition from a “paper system.” Ms. Hall also has begun rudimentary desktop publishing, and a large role for her in that aspect of operations is projected for the future.

The Historical Publications Section was fortunate that at the end of the past fiscal year the Office of State Budget granted permission for the section to use $58,517 in surplus receipts to publish reprints. In many past years the denial of that permission has deprived the section of funds that would have made it possible to keep popular titles in print, help pay for expensive new works, and generate additional future revenue.

47 STATE CAPITOL/VISITOR SERVICES SECTION

Samuel P. Townsend, Administrator

The demand for overall services of the section grew by an average of more than 20 percent during the biennium. That growth was reflected by increases in visitation to the State Capitol, the Executive Mansion, and the Capital Area Visitor Center and by increases in customized scheduling and agenda preparation services provided to school classes and other tour groups. Non-group visitation to the Visitor Center showed interesting trends: the number of foreign visitors doubled, the number of visitors from North Carolina (excluding Raleigh) quadrupled, and the number of visitors from Raleigh tripled. Owing to the lack of staff and funding to meet increased demands, more than 30,000 non-group visitors per year could not be offered guided tours of the Capitol or brochures. Moreover, appropriate outreach programs could not be offered to 3,000 visiting school groups annually or to 4,000 fourth- and eighth-grade classes annually that could not visit.

During its 1994 short session the legislature created the Capitol Preservation Commission (House Bill 1774) to be responsible for the care and administration of the State Capitol. Gov. James B. Hunt Jr. appointed John L. Sanders of Chapel Hill as his designee on the commission and as its chairman. Section staff provided extensive administrative support to the commission, which met three times in early 1995. The commission’s most significant activities were (1) the execution of separate two-year agreements with the Department of Cultural Resources, the Depart- ment of Administration, and the State Capitol Foundation to continue their respective services to the Capitol, and (2) the planning of requests to the General Assembly for capital improvements funds for the Capitol and for an operating budget for the commission. The 1995 General Assembly, by way of House Bill 230, Part 12, repealed the Capitol Preservation Commission and reenacted North Carolina General Statute 121-9 as it existed prior to creation of the commission. Thus, custody of the public areas of the first floor and all of the upper floors of the Capitol was returned to the Department of Cultural Resources.

In August 1995 Secretary of Cultural Resources Betty Ray McCain asked the people who had served on the Capitol Preservation Commission to serve as members of a new group created within the Division of Archives and History and known as the State Capitol Advisory Committee (SCAC). Secretary McCain named John L. Sanders as chairman of the committee. The SCAC met twice and began to develop its role as an advisory and advocacy group for the restoration and preservation of the Capitol—with emphasis on helping the department obtain legislative funding for the Capitol.

Secretary McCain procured from the Office of State Budget and Management renovation and repair funds to be used to clean the Capitol’s exterior, to repaint exterior woodwork, and to repair leaks in the gutters and flat portions of the Capitol’s copper roof. Preliminary planning for that work began.

Phase I of the Capitol Interior Finishes Restoration, involving the return of the senate chamber to its original color scheme, was completed; Yelverton Archi- tects of Charlotte was the architect. Late in the biennium the State Construction State Capitol/Vistors Services

Office hired Stephens & Francis Architects of New Bern as the architect for phase

II.

The State Capitol Foundation revised its charter, bylaws, and organizational structure. This enabled the nonprofit support organization to conduct its business more effectively and to create its statewide membership arm, the State Capitol Society. The society began intensive planning for launching a membership campaign.

CAPITAL AREA VISITOR CENTER

The 1994 short session of the legislature appropriated $430,000 to the Department of Administration for advance planning for a proposed new visitor center to be located on the block immediately northeast of Union (Capitol) Square. NBBJ Architects of Research Triangle Park was chosen as architect of record. The staff provided information on center programs and operations to NBBJ and the State Construction Office. NBBJ proposed basic concepts for the new center, including (1) having two levels of underground parking beneath it and most of the remainder of the block, (2) development of the entire block (except for the privately owned Marshall Haywood House and lot) as a ceremonial park, (3) having bus-un- loading facilities off street at the center, and (4) having the center located on either the Blount Street or Edenton Street side of the block. The staff recommended the Edenton Street location as the most efficient and most aesthetically pleasing site. Additional funds are needed for preparing a bid package for the project and for construction. The governor and the Capital Planning Commission have shown considerable enthusiasm for this project, but no announcement has been made as to when the additional needed moneys will be requested from the legislature.

The staff sought and obtained private funds to refurnish the center’s parlor. Acquisition of furniture and accessories for the parlor proved to have a positive effect on visitors, as did the addition of a display case for the sale of hand-painted Executive Mansion roof slate fragments removed from the 1891 roof during the 1994 and 1995 repairs. The wall display cases located in the library were redesigned to create a more inviting and informative exhibit area. Staff members from the Museum of History, the Museum of Natural Sciences, the State Capitol, the Ex- ecutive Mansion, and Mordecai Historic Park designed and installed in the display cases exhibits about their respective sites. An important visitor services improvement was the donation and installation of an outside directional sign by the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau. That sign is mounted on the outside wall of the south porch, providing visitor information, especially for people arriving at the center when it is closed. The visitor center is currently conferring with the North Carolina Association of Interior Designers on plans to showcase the center in the near future.

Staff involvement at the Executive Mansion increased as the first lady made more time slots available for routine public tours, scheduled more special tours, and established summer tours and summer open house for state employees. Docent training manuals were upgraded using Executive Mansion Fine Arts Committee funding, and docents were required to complete a special training session. Docents participated in five educational trips, focusing on art and history, with particular

emphasis on furniture and the decorative arts. Included were trips to Savannah, Philadelphia, Boston, the Hudson River valley, and Wilmington, North Carolina. The Department of Cultural Resources data processing manager developed and installed a computerized scheduling program for the center. This system is designed to give the Museum of History and the Capitol on-line access to schedule information. The opening of the new Museum of History with its changing exhibits and fluctuating tour hours increased the complexity of the scheduling process.

As visitation increased, there was greater reliance on volunteers and interns at the center. Volunteers donated 1,743 hours in assisting the staff with greeting the growing number of non-group visitors. Five interns assisted during the period.

Isaac Hunter Awards, given annually to people who have gone above and beyond the call of duty in the field of visitor services, were presented to retired center receptionist Ann Sawyer and to Executive Mansion docent Frances Emory. A center volunteer, Nancy Keppler, won the Retired Senior Volunteer Program Award.

Interaction of the center staff with the community included working coopera- tively with the Greater Raleigh Convention and Visitors Bureau and the Raleigh Downtown Association and serving on the planning committees of the 1994 Visitors Studies Conference, the Southeastern Museums Conference 1997 annual meeting, and the annual Raleigh First Night New Year’s Eve event. Center staff members gave lectures to various organizations, assisted with the Raleigh Landmarks Tour, and sold tickets for the Oakwood Christmas Tour. The center continues to be a home base for Volksmarch International.

STATE CAPITOL BRANCH

Attendance at the annual State Capitol July Fourth celebrations has more than doubled since July 1993. Approximately twenty-five thousand people visited the two celebrations during this biennium. The events were held on Union (Capitol) Square and featured historical reenactments and demonstrations and performances of traditional music and dance. Staffofthe Historic Sites Section participated by giving demonstrations of quill pen writing, spinning, tobacco grading, candle making, basketry, and an exhibition of antique toys and vehicles. Reenactors depicted Revolutionary troops, Confederate and Union troops, Confederate-era

women’s fashions and home life, and World War II troops. Members of the Edenton I State Capitol/Vistors Services

Tea Party Chapter of the DAR served tea and described the role of women during the Revolutionary period. A costumed Uncle Sam added to the traditional patriotic atmosphere of the festivities.

Visitors enjoyed the filled-to-capacity presentations of the “War Experiences 1865” annual living history programs. The two series of programs offered during the biennium featured a weekend-long encampment. Military tents and other campsite items of the Civil War era were placed on the grounds, and costumed characters presented thirty-minute first-person presentations inside the building. Reenactors from Company I, 6th North Carolina State Troops, donned Union uniforms to portray troops of the 69th New York and to provide military drills, firing demonstrations, and sentries posted outside the Capitol. Members of the 26th North Carolina Soldiers’ Benevolent Society displayed period artifacts and fashions. Grant moneys and donations funded the purchase of period costumes, including two gentlemen’s day suits, a Union second lieutenant’s uniform, a slave’s shirt and breeches, and a morning dress and bonnet. Plans are under way to expand these popular programs.

The annual Capitol Christmas tree-lighting ceremony and open house continued to be a very popular event, with more than ten thousand people attending each year. In 1995 the tree-lighting ceremony was moved from the south to the west grounds. The Facility Management Division of the Department of Admini- stration transplanted a 25-foot eastern red cedar to the west grounds to serve as the "official" state Christmas tree and provided a new stage for use at the west entrance of the Capitol building. Each year the Raleigh Concert Band performed outside during the ceremonies, and the Raleigh Ringers performed afterward in the rotunda for the open house festivities. As usual the Raleigh Garden Club, with the assistance of Capitol staff and volunteers, decorated the rotunda, the governor’s and lieutenant governor’s offices, and the legislative chambers. The popular Twelve Days of Christmas annual musical program, featuring performances by local musical groups and individual musicians, continued to expand. Performances in 1995 filled every available hour of the midday program on weekdays, as well as additional hours on weekends. The Raleigh Junior Woman’s Club, with the assistance of the Capitol staff, obtained ornaments for the “North Carolina tree” in 1995. All one hundred county managers in the state were asked to send ornaments representing their respective counties for display on the tree. Many of the fifty-five ornaments subsequently sent received publicity in the origina- ting county as well as while hanging on the tree in the Capitol.

The contents of the display case in the west hallway were changed peri- odically, including exhibits on Thomas Day, Vietnam veterans’ memorabilia, and early toys and games (loaned by the Museum of History during the 1995 Christmas season).

Thirty volunteer docents donated more than 4,000 hours by (1) giving tours to more than 140,000 visitors; (2) working at special events, including the Raleigh Southern Women’s Show, the North Carolina State Fair, the Capitol July Fourth celebrations, the living history programs, Raleigh First Night activities held in the Capitol, the Capitol tree-lighting ceremony, and open house festivities; and (3) helping to decorate the Capitol for the Christmas holidays. Capitol docents and staff members participated in educational and professional development tours of

Interns provided valuable assistance in organizing the section’s iconographic collection and completing a comparative study of the present North Carolina General Assembly and the 1840 session. This work by interns increased the availability of photographic materials and reference data needed for further research on the functions of state government and for further development of living history presentations, guided tours, audiovisual programs, and an Internet home page for the section.

Capitol Branch staff members served on several committees, including the Interagency Marketing Council, the Civil War Tourism Council, and the planning committees for the 1994 Visitors Studies Conference held in Raleigh, the South- eastern Museums Conference 1997 annual meeting planning committee, and the annual Raleigh First Night New Year’s Eve event. Staff members also participated in various events, including the Tryon Palace Decorative Arts Symposium, the North Carolina Social Studies Conference in Greensboro, an exhibit on Greek Revival architecture at Historic Oakview County Park in Raleigh, the Raleigh Southern Women’s Show, the Interstate 77 welcome center grand opening near Charlotte, and the State Fair.

Phase I of restoration involving the senate chamber and its anterooms was completed. Ceilings of the senate’s northwest and northeast offices on the second floor were returned to their original 1840 appearances by reconstructing their decorative plaster borders. State painters finished painting the senate chamber dome, ceilings, walls, offices, galleries, and two third-floor gallery anterooms in their original color schemes. Decorative painting of doors, baseboards, and risers in the senate chamber will be completed during phase III. The chamber was reopened for public visitation in March 1995.

Phase II—which will involve restoration of the house chamber and its offices, the State Geologist’s Office, the State Library Room, the east second-to-third-floor staircase, and third-floor stair halls—began in May 1996. Movers stored house chamber furnishings at the old Farmer’s Market and moved Thomas Stilly’s 1818 portrait of George Washington to the North Carolina Museum of Art, where it was alternately stored or placed on display. The contents of the State Library Room and State Geologist’s Office were temporarily stored in the senate galleries and elsewhere in the building. Completion of phase II is projected for mid- to late 1997.

In March 1995 the researcher consulted with nationally renowned Civil War artist Mort Kunstler concerning Kunstler’s painting Winter Riders , familiarizing the artist with the appearance of the Capitol and downtown Raleigh in the 1860s. The researcher made a research trip to New York, Philadelphia, and Wash- ington D.C., in April 1995 to examine papers of the renowned architect A. J. Davis and to meet with nationally known experts on historic carpeting and lighting in order to gain additional knowledge of early Capitol furnishings. He traveled to Greenville, Mississippi, in May 1995 to have the U.S. Axminster Carpet Company reconstruct the pattern of an early carpet fragment found in mid- 1992 in the Capitol attic. The results of the computerized pattern were inconclusive. Plans are to continue to investigate the possibility that the fragment is from the early carpet used in the legislative chambers.

The researcher worked with staff of the North Carolina Arts Council to inventory the Union (Capitol) Square statuary for the Smithsonian Institution’s “SOS! North Carolina” program to identify and preserve outdoor sculpture.

The initial organizational meeting of the Governor John Motley Morehead 200th Birthday Celebration Committee was held in the house chamber of the Capitol in August 1995. While serving on the committee, the researcher coordinated a ceremony held in the Capitol rotunda on January 31, 1996, at which Gov. James B. Hunt Jr. issued a proclamation marking the two hundredth birthday year of Governor Morehead. The Capitol staff planned activities to commemorate Governor Morehead’s two hundredth birthday (July 4, 1996) at the Capitol July Fourth celebration.

The researcher presented special Capitol history lectures for the North Carolina Supreme Court Historical Society, Historic Oakview County Park, Capi- tol docents, Executive Mansion docents, the Museum of History’s “History a la Carte” series, and for classes at Wake Technical Community College, North Carolina State University, and the Duke University Continuing Education Depart- ment. He provided technical assistance to the restoration of the Old State House in Little Rock, Arkansas, and currently serves on a committee for the development of the introductory historical exhibit for the new North Carolina Museum of Natural Sciences.

STATE CAPITOL FOUNDATION

The board of directors of the State Capitol Foundation met four times during the biennium. An audit reconciled the foundation’s finances. The foundation’s total financial achievements for the period October 1, 1976, through June 30, 1996, reached a level exceeding $1.38 million. The board approved revisions to the articles of incorporation and bylaws and adopted a new master plan that describes the foundation’s purpose, goals, current resources, and plans to assist in fulfilling the needs of the Capitol.

The foundation ceremonially planted a five-foot-tall “Davie Poplar Jr.” tree on the south grounds of Union Square in October 1994 in memory of U.S. senator Sam J. Ervin Jr. The North Carolina Botanical Gardens Foundation provided the tree, grown from a seed of the renowned “Davie Poplar” in Chapel Hill.

54 State Capitol/Vistors Services

West Jefferson artist Lenore DePree donated her original oil painting Spirit of the Capitol and its copyright to the foundation. An ad hoc marketing committee, with goals to create and sell “Spirit of the Capitol” souvenirs featuring that artwork, conducted sales campaigns at such events as the Capitol July Fourth celebration, Capitol Christmas festivities, and the Raleigh Southern Women’s Show. Merchan- dise created and sold included prints, posters, T-shirts, sweatshirts, refrigerator magnets, note cards, and postcards. Proceeds from those sales are being applied to the development of the State Capitol Society (SCS), the statewide membership arm of the foundation.

In December 1995 four of the eighteen SCS district chairs participated in an installation ceremony and a brief orientation program on their duties and the goals of the SCS. The SCS committee also made plans to create membership brochures, pins, videotape programs, and other membership and educational materials. The foundation’s executive committee met and approved in general principle a document titled, “Action Plan: State Capitol Society Membership Campaign.” It also approved preliminary expenditures to activate the plan. Preparations for a membership drive kick-off proved more complicated than the foundation had anticipated, and, consequently, plans were revised to delay kick-off events until 1997.

Board members initiated several partnerships between the foundation and corporations. Ericsson Inc., a Research Triangle-based company, agreed to fund the Touch & Go computerized touch information systems at the Capitol and the visitor center until July 2000. Systel Office Automation of Fayetteville donated a fax machine and a photocopier for use by the foundation and section staff. M. J. Soffe Company, also of Fayetteville, donated printing services for the “Spirit of the Capitol” T-shirts. A Capitol docent and retiree of IBM arranged for that company to donate a computer and laser printer to the foundation.

The Department of Cultural Resources awarded the foundation a grant in the amount of eleven thousand dollars for development and expansion of the living history program.

The foundation board funded exterior paint research to be used in conjunction with planned exterior cleaning and repainting of woodwork. It also funded the restoration of several Capitol furnishing items and launched a project to restore the 1840 senate and house desks through individual desk sponsorships.

55 TRYON PALACE SECTION

Kay P. Williams, Administrator

ADMINISTRATION

The 1994-1996 biennium was, for the Tryon Palace Section, a period of assessing the achievements of the past and of planning for the future. It was a period of defining and setting policies, of a growing focus on the section’s educational mission at all levels, of preserving the site infrastructure, and of building a new technical infrastructure for the future while remaining true to the original ideals and mission of the Tryon Palace Commission.

A major achievement of the biennium was the development and adoption of a code of ethics for the site. Its intent was to set forth an acceptable standard of conduct for the Tryon Palace Commission, the directors and officers of the Tryon Palace Council of Friends, and the state employees who operate Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens regarding the management of the site. The document, which is consistent with the Code of Ethics for Museums adopted by the American Association of Museums (AAM), is being used by the AAM as a model for ethics policies for governmental properties nationwide.

Approval by the Tryon Palace Commission in April 1996 of a long-range plan for Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens was an important achievement. That document, which charts the site’s general course for the next twenty years, marked the culmination of more than two years of planning and review by staff, commission members, focus groups, and consultants. The plan reaffirms the site’s mission to tell the stories of the contributions of the people of the central North Carolina coast to the history of the state and the nation. The Douglas Complex, leased by the state of North Carolina from the Kellenberger Historical Foundation in 1994, was under renovation using private funds at the end of the biennium. Once the renovation work is completed in the summer of 1996, the conservation laboratory will move into part of the space, which will be a larger and more up-to-date facility. The added space will make possible the treatment of several objects concurrently. Facilities in the Douglas Complex are also being developed for the archives and the storage of architectural and archaeological fragments. The carpenter, painters, and mechanical maintenance units will likewise be relocated to one of the other buildings in the complex. The Tryon Palace operation became computerized during the biennium. The purchase of additional computer hardware in fiscal year 1995-1996 allows all branches on the site to be networked. An e-mail system has been installed. At the end of the biennium, access to an Internet link was being secured and a web-site page was being developed. When completed, the new system will provide a direct link with division offices in Raleigh.

An institutional milestone was reached midway through the biennium when the Tryon Palace Commission marked its fiftieth anniversary with a weekend of special events, October 20-22, 1995. The celebration began on Friday evening with a reception and dinner at the Sheraton Grand for family members of the original Tryon Palace

1945 commission, past and present commission members, and Tryon Palace friends and staff. On Saturday and Sunday eleven distinguished speakers and panelists participated in a symposium titled “Reviving North Carolina’s Past: The Preser- vation Movement in the First Half of the Twentieth Century.” A parallel program of public activities on Saturday and Sunday included an eighteenth-century circus performed by the entertainment group Historical Diversions, musical entertainment, and presentations by Tryon Palace staff on behind-the-scenes activities. During the celebration there was also free admission to the gardens and the New Bern Academy Museum. More than one thousand visitors attended the public events.

TECHNICAL SERVICES BRANCH

Preserving and renewing the infrastructure while improving the visitor experience was a major focus of activities in the Technical Services Branch during the biennium. The exterior of the John Wright Stanly House and the Visitor Center were repainted. New roofs were installed on eight structures, including the Visitor Center auditorium, the two summer houses behind the Stanly House, the Pigeon House, two sentry houses, and two necessary houses at the Palace. Funds were secured to replace the roof of the Stanly House, built in 1779. Preservation efforts continued with an ongoing maintenance program for all historic structures. Spe- cific projects included restoration of the rear portico of the Stanly House and the wooden fence at the Dixon-Stevenson House, renovation of the guides’ dressing room in the Palace cellar, and modification of the Palace Poultry House to create an office.

A significant accomplishment during the biennium resulted from a partnership involving the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT), the city of New Bern, and Tryon Palace staff. To alleviate flooding adjacent to the Visitor Center, NCDOT replaced a major storm-water drainage system on two sides of the Palace square along Eden Street and a portion of Pollock Street. As a component ofthat project, the city ofNew Bern removed the overhead transformers along Eden Street and buried the utility lines, thereby enhancing the visual quality of the adjacent streetscapes. With the installation of a new ground-level transformer to replace three large overhead PCB units, Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens completed the update of its 1960s main electrical power service for the site; the electric service is now part of the city of New Bern’s electrical loop system.

Less-visible infrastructure projects included the replacement of a thirty-six- year-old heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning system in the Visitor Center auditorium and the replacement of a thirty-three-year-old furnace in the Jones House. Seven underground oil- storage tanks around the complex were removed, and two other tanks in hard-to-reach areas were emptied and filled with inert materials. Completion of the project brought Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens into compliance with state environmental regulations.

The Technical Services Branch has responsibility for conservation of historic artifacts. Major projects during the biennium included the treatment of a mid- eighteenth-century English bureau bookcase, an early nineteenth-century ja- panned tail-case clock, an early polychromed house for a domesticated animal, two intricate eighteenth-century glass chandeliers, and two early nineteenth-century

57 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

glass-and-metal chandeliers. Collection storage was greatly improved by the addition of padding to shelves and storage units. Stored items were tagged for identification, and an inventory was entered into a computer system for collection security and tracking.

COLLECTIONS AND RESEARCH BRANCH

A major activity of the branch was the development and implementation of a collections management program that complies with standards outlined by the American Association of Museums. As part ofthe program, staffbegan an inventory and condition survey of the display collection, last undertaken in 1991. An inventory of the objects in Palace storage was also begun. Unaccessioned objects found in the collection are being catalogued and tracked. With help from the Technical Services Branch, stored objects have been rehoused to meet professional standards.

One goal for the branch was the selection of an electronic collections management program. Several data-entry software programs were investigated. The hardware was ordered at the end of the biennial period, and it is anticipated that the program will be implemented early in 1997. In preparation for the transfer of existing paper collections records to the electronic system, staff has been updating the files. Because the new program will include digitized images of collection objects, the staff is also developing a list of unphotographed objects so that a complete photographic record of collection objects can be created. A related program is under way to organize the personal files of former administrators and curators and to extract pertinent information on collection objects. Future plans include using a similar electronic system to manage archives records and library materials. The electronic systems for collections (including architectural artifacts and archaeological fragments) will make possible the closer management of objects; allow the site to serve a broader public, both general and professional; and enable the site to meet legal requirements concerning public records.

A number of important additions to the Tryon Palace collection during the biennium focused on artifacts directly associated with its mission of interpreting New Bern and coastal North Carolina history. One of the most important objects acquired was the mourning ring presented to Margaret Wake Tryon, widow of Gov. William Tryon, to commemorate his death in 1788. The ring is the only object in the collection that can be linked personally to Mrs. Tryon. Two personal letters from then Lt. Col. William Tryon to fellow officer Lieutenant Colonel Hotham, written before Tryon’s appointment as royal governor for North Carolina, were acquired at the same time from a family descendant. The letters add a human dimension to the portrait of Governor Tryon.

Another highlight of the collection acquisition program was the gift of a delftware punch bowl made in London between 1725 and 1730. An important decorative arts artifact, the punch bowl possesses added significance for the site as a historical object on two levels. It was owned by Nathaniel Rice (d. 1753), who served briefly as acting governor between the terms of Gabriel Johnston and Arthur Dobbs. William Tryon succeeded Dobbs as royal governor. Rice’s granddaughter Sarah married John Hawks, the English architect hired by Tryon to design the Palace. The bowl remained in the Rice family and was presented by a Rice descendant.

58 Tryon Palace

The collection also benefited from the gift of a group of Civil War-related documents associated with Capt. Samuel L. Sims, a member of Company G, Fifty-first New York Infantry, who was stationed in New Bern in 1862. The gift included a portrait photograph of Captain Sims, two manuscript letters written from New Bern, and a rare manuscript sketch of the fortifications at Fort Roanoke drawn by Lewis C. Tickle of Alamance County, North Carolina, in 1862. A large album of photographs taken by A. R. Rogers of Boston about 1912 adds to the understanding of New Bern and Craven County in the early twentieth century. Of special interest to Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens are photographs of the John Wright Stanly House on its original location; the images provide previously unknown visual documentation of lost outbuildings. The album was prepared for New Bern entrepreneur James A. Bryan, who owned the Stanly House at the time.

Research carried out during the biennium continued to follow the goals established by the ten-point research plan adopted by the Tryon Palace Commis- sion in 1992. Research related to the reinterpretation of Tryon Palace proceeded on several fronts. The horticulturist undertook to bring together all known information about Claude-Joseph Sauthier, the Alsatian cartographer believed to be responsible for the garden plan of Tryon Palace found in Venezuela several years ago. Subsequent research in France uncovered additional genealogical data and located a number of Sauthier documents, which were examined and photographed.

Preliminary research began in Philadelphia-area records to identify artisans and craftsmen whose services contributed to the construction or finishing of the Palace. The research historian began an extended survey of Craven County records, including a chronological index of estate files and a review of probate inventories and accounts of sales, to build a clearer picture of material culture in the late colonial and early national periods. In a parallel project, the archaeological fragments uncovered by Morley Jeffers Williams during the reconstruction of the Palace in the 1950s were cleaned and rehoused. They will play a part in the assessment of the material culture of the period.

Additional research was conducted in England to continue the long-term efforts to locate information on Palace architect John Hawks and broaden the present knowledge of Hawks’s relationship with Stiff Leadbetter, his former employer, as well as with William Tryon. Outstanding Leadbetter records relating to the construction and decoration of Shardeloes House (1758-1763) and construction of the Radcliffe Infirmary (1759-1767) at Oxford were located. Records of Leadbetter’s work at Eaton College and Syon House, where he worked with Robert Adam, have also been identified. Future research in those and other promising English collections, such as William Tryon’s banking records, will be performed by English contract researchers under the direction of the branch.

Research staff also revisited the topic of Bellair, a fine Georgian country house west of New Bern that has long been attributed to John Hawks, in the hope of determining the nature of that connection, if any. That project is still in progress. During the biennium, additional research was begun on the craftsmen involved in the construction of a number of New Bern’s pivotal Georgian town houses—among them the John Wright Stanly House and the Coor-Gaston House—to locate any

potential records or proof of the names of the artisans who built them (and who perhaps worked on the Palace as well).

The most visible of the research projects undertaken during the biennium concerns the preservation of the Robert Hay House on Eden Street. Purchased in 1994 by the Tryon Palace Council of Friends with the assistance of a grant from the Kellenberger Historical Foundation, the Hay House has proven to be one of the great relatively untouched treasures of Federal-period New Bern. Beneath a series of rarely harmful alterations and additions are layers of intact early fabric that provide a full record of the evolution of a middle-class artisan’s dwelling of the early nineteenth century.

Using the best preservation methods available, the building was documented as completely as possible. Peter B. Sandbeck prepared a detailed historic structures report that outlines the modifications made to the building over the years. Matthew J. Mosca prepared a parallel report on the history of the paints and finishes used on the exterior and interior of the house. With the decision to return the structure to its appearance for the period 1816-1850, during which the house was owned and occupied by Robert Hay and his family, all twentieth-century additions were removed, including a two-story porch across the front and a kitchen wing. Preservation work on the building is progressing cautiously.

At the end of the reporting period, research aimed at developing an appropriate furnishing plan for the Hay House was also under way. Lacking a detailed inventory of the household goods for the period, the branch is assembling a prototypical pattern based on available family documents and artifacts, on contemporary inventories of Hay’s peers, and on information extracted from such public documents as tax lists and court records.

Information furnished by the East Carolina University Archaeological Field School during two summers of excavations yielded answers to a number of questions pertaining to architecture and furnishings. In 1995 members of the field school uncovered the footings of the original front porch and some early sidewalk features. They also determined that the major portion of the basement kitchen was paved with brick. The 1996 excavation revealed the footings for the rear porch and located a wide range of ceramic types, glassware, nails, and animal bones in the area of the 1816-1830 addition. The 1996 field school also excavated a Civil War- era trash pit on the Hay House site and, in a separate project, searched for the foundation of the original New Bern Academy building. The field school is one of several cooperative projects between Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens and East Carolina University.

When the house opens, visitors will be able to experience the texture of nineteenth-century life. The building will be unfurnished initially and will include only those mechanical systems (heat, light, and plumbing) that would have been available in the first half of the nineteenth century. Furnished rooms will be added incrementally, and the furnishings will be reproductions of period objects. Visitors will be encouraged to participate in a hands-on experience in the house in the manner of “living history.”

61 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

COMMUNICATIONS AND MARKETING BRANCH

A major focus of the Communications and Marketing Branch has been to develop new ways to promote Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens. One initiative was a program of cooperative advertising with a broad range of regional organizations such as other historic sites, hotels, convention and visitors bureaus, and retail stores. Full-page four-color advertisements appeared in Southern Living, Mid-Atlantic Country, State magazine, and Readers Digest, publications that reach a broad audience. Reader response has been good, while the cost of advertising has been cut dramatically.

A second marketing target is the broad area ofcultural tourism. Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens was included in the Smithsonian Study Tour and Seminar Program “Carolina Coastal Homes.” Information on the site was featured in the program catalog mailed to more than fourteen thousand Smithsonian members nationwide. The program is being offered again in April 1997. Staff of the Communications and Marketing Branch are active participants in the Museum Travel Council, a professional interest committee of the American Association of Museums that promotes cultural tourism. They also are participants in Non-Profits in Travel, a group that assists alumni groups, museums, historic sites, and cultural and scientific organizations in developing tours that include cultural sites and study tours. On the state level, Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens is co- operating in the new heritage tourism efforts of the North Carolina Travel and Tourism Division. The New Bern Academy Museum is now included in North Carolina Civil War Trails, a project spearheaded by Gordon Clapp, now the director of North Carolina Travel and Tourism.

As part of its efforts to find new ways to promote the site and to disseminate its historical message, Tryon Palace and its staff participated in the filming of a television movie. North Carolina Public Television filmed portions of “Away to Alamance: Governor Tryon and the Regulators,” the pilot for a television series on North Carolina history. The public television crew spent three days at Tryon Palace filming in the Palace, the kitchen office, the stable, and on the grounds. All branches of the section were involved with the filming, and several of the guides served as extras. The film aired throughout the state in the spring of 1996.

INTERPRETATION BRANCH

A key feature of the site’s mission statement is the emphasis on education. Service to schools was a primary focus for the Interpretation Branch during this biennium. With the development of an exciting new role-playing tour and the continuation of the well-received teacher newsletter, educators throughout the state were able to use Tryon Palace Historic Sites and Gardens as a classroom resource, as well as a field trip destination.

Following a survey of middle-school teachers and periodic meetings with a teacher advisory group, the new middle school program “Stepping into History” was developed, piloted, and added to the selection of tour offerings. (Other grade- specific programs include the “Young Sprouts” garden experience for second-graders, the “Colonial Skills” hands-on craft program for fourth-graders, and the “Who Was I?” information scavenger hunt at the New Bern Academy for grades six and

62 Tryon Palace

up.) “Stepping into History” allows each student to take on the role of one of thirteen historical characters, including the Tryons, Palace architect John Hawks, and a variety of servant roles. While visiting the Palace, students present much of the tour themselves, using role-play sheets that feature their characters’ stories, primary source information, and thinking questions. A packet of suggested pre- and post-visit activities allows the role play to carry over into the classroom for further learning.

Just as the “Stepping into History” program benefited from teacher participation during its development phase, the teacher newsletter The Living History Classroom remained relevant to classroom teachers by building on their own successes. After observing eighth-grade students from East Burke Middle School in Icard filling out trip books during their visit to Tryon Palace, staff interviewed principal Robert Patton for an article that would help other teachers create field-trip books suited to their own itineraries. A multidiscipline article combining history, horticulture, and children’s literature was inspired by a survey response from teacher Beechye Morris of West Greene Elementary School in Snow Hill, whose fifth-grade class had made comparisons with the Tryon Palace gardens after reading The Secret Garden. Such articles give The Living History Classroom the feeling of a forum in which teachers can share new approaches to teaching colonial North Carolina history and also provide useful teaching materials to schools that may or may not be able to visit Tryon Palace. The Living History Classroom is mailed twice a year to about eight hundred teachers throughout the state.

In addition to the services provided to schools, the Interpretation Branch also continued to add further opportunities for general audiences to encounter North Carolina history. A new offering developed during the biennium was a printed synopsis of the tours of the Palace and kitchen wing intended for use by the hearing impaired. It will also be available in French, German, Spanish, and Japanese as an aid for international visitors. Several popular programs were enhanced or expanded. The drama tour “Away to Alamance: Governor Tryon and the Regula- tors,” which entered its sixth season in 1996, was translated into American Sign Language and was videotaped with characters simultaneously speaking and signing. The videotape is available year-round for hearing-impaired visitors to enjoy along with their hearing companions. Developed for the Christmas candlelight tours were new characters, including a butler who explains the English custom of the Twelfth Night cake and a slave who describes the African American celebration of Jonkonnu. The addition of authentic Victorian parlor furniture to the Victorian Christmas setting and of artifacts reflecting a home-front holiday to the 1940s vignette also enhanced the interpretation of Christmas history. GARDENS BRANCH

During the biennium the Gardens Branch focused on improving the interpretive potential of the landscape. Historic plants and garden designs were researched, and appropriate plants are being introduced into each historic garden to create more accurate period effects. Heirloom vegetables have become the mainstay of the eighteenth-century kitchen garden, while research on flowers popular in the nineteenth century was employed to guide plant selections for relandscaping the Jones and Commission Houses.

63 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

In response to public requests for more educational information about the gardens, a new comprehensive garden interpretation plan was developed. The plan calls for an interpretive text-plate exhibit, plant labeling, a guided garden tour program, and a new garden brochure. The garden brochure is expected to be available in October 1996. A new metal-photo plant-labeling machine was acquired to enable the branch to begin implementing a plant-labeling program that goes beyond simple plant identification. Such efforts will help the branch take full advantage of the educational potential of the historic landscapes and provide visitors a high-quality and engaging learning experience.

As a component of site infrastructure renewal, the Gardens Branch also focused on enhancing garden maintenance and improving the quality of horticul- tural exhibits. Completed improvement projects include: renovation of the plantings around the Jones House, replacing the deteriorated tree plantings in the Gertrude Carraway Garden, adding organic matter to seasonal planting beds, removing and replacing senescent trees, and relandscaping in front of the Daves House.

Completion of drainage improvements on Eden and Pollock Streets provided an opportunity to assess the current streetscape and to investigate the development of a comprehensive plan to enhance the outer appearance of the site and to improve visitor safety. The landscape architectural firm of Hayter, Reynolds, and Jewell was hired in 1995 to develop a streetscape design plan with detailed landscape recommendations. Conceptual design options have been presented, and more detailed recommendations are being refined.

CONCLUSION

During the 1994-1996 biennium, the Tryon Palace Section regularized a number of key policies that govern the institution. With the adoption of the long-range plan, the section reaffirmed its commitment to remain true to the original ideals and mission of the Tryon Palace Commission. The new long-range plan provides guidelines for the way to reach our goal: to increase attendance and sources of funding; to preserve the site infrastructure and preserve and maintain the historic buildings, objects, and gardens; to interpret all aspects of the site through balanced, factual scholarship; and to assure the presentation of quality visitor experience into the twenty-first century.

64 WESTERN OFFICE

Ronald Holland, Regional Supervisor

Western Office staff participated in three public forums sponsored by the Governor’s Council on Travel and Tourism in Iredell, Haywood, and Watauga Counties during the last half of 1994. The gatherings were designed to solicit public comment in developing travel and tourism strategies. Staff members also served in advisory capacities with the Year of the Mountains Commission during 1995-1996. The commission, created by the governor, formulated a number of important strategies and recommendations for the future, including several dealing with the preservation and promotion of cultural resources. A video report on the commission’s work was produced for use by public and commercial television stations, schools, clubs, and other groups.

The U.S. General Services Administration in Atlanta has unofficially advised the Western Office that the Oteen Center will be transferred to the state of North Carolina. The building, which housed the Western Office for thirteen years, will serve as a regional records center facility as well as Western Office head- quarters. Considerable work needs to be done to the structure before it can be occupied. Renovations to the building are tentatively planned during the next three to five years as funding permits.

The Western Office cooperated with Mars Hill College and the U.S. Forest Service in implementing an internship designed to preserve the historic land records of the Forest Service. Two interns were funded during the summer of 1996. Members of the Western Office staff continue to participate in activities sponsored by the Appalachian Consortium, a regional educational service organization.

Jim Stevens joined the staff of the Western Office as preservation specialist in the fall of 1994, resigned in August 1995, and was replaced by Jennifer Martin. Cynthia Mclntire, field microfilmer, resigned in the fall of 1995 and was replaced by Barbara Keeter.

The following is a brief summary by program of some of the other activities of the Western Office staff during the biennium.

Archaeology and Historic Preservation

The staff archaeologist continued to maintain an active public education program. He presented forty programs to school groups and civic and historical organizations in twelve counties. In addition, he organized and hosted the second annual Summer Field Day with the Otarre Chapter of the North Carolina Archae- ological Society and helped to organize and host the annual meeting of the North Carolina Archaeological Society. He assisted the Museum of the Cherokee Indian in planning, organizing, and constructing a new outdoor exhibit of sixteenth- century buildings at the rear of the museum building in Cherokee.

The archaeologist provided technical assistance to a variety of state, local, and federal agencies, including the U.S. Forest Service; the National Park Service; the Eastern Band of the Cherokee Indians; North Carolina State Parks; the North Carolina Department of Transportation; the North Carolina Department of Envi- Forty-sixth Biennial Report

ronment, Health and Natural Resources; and the counties of Macon, Buncombe, Burke, McDowell, and Yancey. He also assisted archaeologists at Western Carolina University, Appalachian State University, the Schiele Museum of Natural His- tory, and at numerous private contracting firms.

The archaeologist made 37 site visits in 14 counties to identify and evaluate archaeological resources and saw a total of 957 projects through the environmental review process. He visited sites in 3 counties in response to North Carolina General Statute 70, the Unmarked Human Skeletal Remains Act. He directed a major salvage excavation to remove Native American human burials from a 6-acre site slated for factory construction at the Macon County Industrial Park. That project involved coordinating archaeological consultants and volunteers and benefited from more than 1,900 hours of volunteered service.

The archaeologist coauthored the following papers, which were presented at various national meetings of professional associations during the biennium: “New Evidence of Sixteenth-Century Spanish Artifacts in the Catawba River Valley”; “Connestee Chronology and Culture: New Evidence from Western North Carolina”; “The Sixteenth-Century Catawba Valley in North Carolina”; and “Native American Rock Art in Western North Carolina.”

The Western Office preservation specialist conducted 50 survey/National Register site visits and worked on 5 National Register nominations. She conducted environmental review of 342 projects, responded to 522 requests for information, and administered 7 grant projects (Rutherfordton Historic District nomination, Saluda Historic District National Register nomination, Transylvania County Sur- vey manuscript, Waynesville Survey, Cleveland County Survey, Hendersonville Survey, and West Asheville Survey). The preservation specialist conducted reconnaissance surveys in Hendersonville and Waynesville and carried out comprehensive environmental review in Henderson County for improvements to State Road 1503. The project required careful review and extensive fieldwork. She presented 16 National Register nominations and 31 study list applications at 6 meetings of the National Register Advisory Committee. She reviewed 8 Part 1 tax credit projects, along with 2 local designation reports. She also made a presentation to the Hendersonville Historic Preservation Commission; held a National Register public meeting in Saluda; and served as a member of the Griffin Awards committee and the HandMade in America committee, which offered assistance with downtown revitalization to four small western North Carolina towns.

The restoration specialist made 992 consultations in connection with preservation, restoration, and rehabilitation projects throughout the region. He monitored or provided technical assistance to ongoing federal and state grant projects 297 times. He rendered technical assistance to state-owned properties 42 times and to Section 106 environmental review projects 33 times. He made review comments relating to state-owned properties 5 times and for 27 different Section 106 projects. He conducted reviews for rehabilitation investment tax credit projects 22 times, provided technical consultations for potential and ongoing tax act projects 124 times, and made technical assistance available to local private consultations 442 times.

During the summer of 1994 the restoration specialist supervised an intern from Middle Tennessee State University’s graduate preservation program. In

Western Office

September 1994 he lectured on the role of the architect as part of a restoration project at the “Housekeeping in Context” conservation workshop in Asheville. Additional presentations included a slide lecture on the William Deavor House restoration project to the Transylvania County Historical Society; two lectures one in Mooresville and one in Asheville—dealing with lead paint in historic buildings for the Department of Environment, Health and Natural Resources as part of its continuing education course for public health officials; and a lecture on preservation principles and practices to a class in historic preservation at Western Carolina University. In addition, he assisted the staff of the Carl Sandburg National Historic Site during a two-day special planning session.

Archives and Records The archives and records analyst conducted 304 records management and micrographic consultations, including 190 site visits. He provided assistance with the establishment and/or maintenance of micrographic systems to various county and municipal offices in Alexander, Alleghany, Ashe, Avery, Buncombe, Burke, Catawba, Gaston, Haywood, Jackson, McDowell, Polk, Wilkes, and Yancey Coun- ties. The Western Office field microfilmer filmed approximately 527,000 pages of county and municipal records scheduled for permanent retention, among them records from the register of deeds offices in Jackson, Lincoln, Mecklenburg, and Polk Counties. Two notable transfers of security film were achieved when approximately 300 reels from the Avery and Wilkes County register of deeds offices were moved to a more secure location within the State Archives.

The records analyst provided assistance with records management to various county and municipal offices in Alexander, Ashe, Avery, Buncombe, Caldwell, Catawba, Cleveland, Gaston, Haywood, Henderson, Jackson, Lincoln, Polk, Rutherford, Swain, Transylvania, and Watauga Counties. He also provided assistance to the Western Piedmont Council of Government, Western Carolina Univer- sity, and the University of North Carolina at Asheville. He led workshops on records management and files and filing in Buncombe, Catawba, Cherokee, Hay- wood, Iredell, Rutherford, Watauga, Wilkes, and Yancey Counties. More than two hundred employees from county and municipal governments throughout western North Carolina attended the gatherings. The records analyst provided guidance and assistance with the arranging, describing, and/or preserving of collections under the care of the Asheville Art Museum, the Avery County Historical Society, the Black Mountain College Mu- seum, the Colburn Mineral Museum (Buncombe County), the Gastonia Archives and History Committee, Johnson Farm (Henderson County), the Mount Airy Museum of Regional History, the Swannanoa Valley Historical Museum (Bun- combe County), and the U.S. Forest Service in Asheville. Approximately 58 cubic feet of loose records and 116 bound volumes from Caldwell, Henderson, and Swain Counties were transferred to the custody of the State Archives. In addition, the analyst spoke to a group of graduate students at Western Carolina University and provided assistance to numerous individuals with archival and genealogical questions.

67 Forty-sixth Biennial Report

Historic Sites

The historic sites specialist served on special-event planning committees at the North Carolina Transportation Museum (Spencer centennial celebration), Vance Birthplace (Pioneer Living Days), and Thomas Wolfe Memorial (Thomas Wolfe Festival). He provided assistance to Western Office staff in producing an exhibit panel highlighting event demonstrations and activities. The panel was used for pre-event publicity at the Mountain State Fair in Arden and at Vance Birth- place.

The specialist also saw service as a member of the computer software selection committee, which was charged with recommending collections management software for the North Carolina Museum of History and the Historic Sites Section; the Vance exhibit committee, which was responsible for developing new exhibits for the Vance Birthplace visitor center; the North Carolina Transportation Museum traffic flow committee, which developed a plan for traffic flow in and around Barber Junction and signage for the transit paths that link Barber Junc- tion, the roundhouse, the back shop, and the flue shop; and the Junior Engineer planning committee, which is proposing a museum-based club for school-age children at the North Carolina Transportation Museum. The specialist also rendered assistance to the Thomas Wolfe Memorial exhibit committee, which examined a previous exhibit plan, discussed how to rework the design to fit the exhibit space in the new visitor center, and formulated possible floor plans and exhibit scaling.

The specialist assisted in planning, developing, and implementing the 1994 Historic Sites Visitor Survey, which was administered at eleven sites during the summer months. He developed a special guest register sheet for mail-in surveys at Fort Dobbs, Charlotte Hawkins Brown Memorial, and Aycock Birthplace. He conducted surveys at Vance Birthplace and Home Creek Farm and completed the Town Creek Indian Mound focus group study. The main objective was to identify problems relating to photographic depiction of burial remains in the museum exhibits. Three focus groups were conducted. The specialist conducted a visitor studies project at Vance Birthplace to obtain from the community, staff, and visitors opinions concerning new exhibits for the visitor center.

The specialist reworked the History Bowl Study Guide two times with additional information supplied by the curator of education and prepared camera- ready proof for the printer. He conducted History Bowl training workshops for staff members at Fort Dobbs. He participated in regional History Bowls at Fort Dobbs, Charlotte Hawkins Brown Memorial, Reed Gold Mine/Polk Memorial, and Vance Birthplace, as well as in the state championships in Raleigh. The specialist participated in the 1995 and 1996 North Carolina Social Studies Conferences in Greensboro and along with the curator of education presented a workshop during the 1995 conference. He presented to the 1995 Visitor Studies Conference in St. Paul, Minnesota, a paper titled “Front-End Evaluation at the North Carolina Transportation Museum.” The paper was based on research conducted during 1993 at the North Carolina Transportation Museum to assess public expectations concerning renovations to the roundhouse there.

The specialist presented a workshop on interpreter training five times during the period—three times at the North Carolina Transportation Museum, once at

68 Western Office

Reed Gold Mine, and once at the Johnson Farm Historic Site in Henderson County. Along with the curator of education, he presented the workshop titled “An Intro- duction to Customer Services” at the North Carolina Transportation Museum. He developed the workshop “Visitor Services and the Supervisor—Tools for Managing” to help supervisors track the visitor service standards component of employee work plans. He conducted a pilot version of the workshop at Duke Homestead and then presented it at the CSS Neuse, Reed Gold Mine, and Alamance Battleground. He presented a workshop on using North Carolina historic sites in the classroom two times at the Western North Carolina Social Studies Convention, held at the University of North Carolina at Asheville. He presented the program “Developing Standards for Visitor Services” three times for a Federation of North Carolina Historical Societies workshop—twice in Morganton and once in Hendersonville.
