  • An Oral History Interview with John Joseph Patrick and James Leo
    Sandy Hook, Gateway NRA, National Park Service An Oral History Interview with John Joseph Patrick and James Leo Mulhern Sons of Fort Hancock Pumping Station and Power Plant Chief Engineer 1908-1927 Interviewed by Elaine Harmon, NPS August 14, 1982 Transcribed by Mary Rasa, 2012 The Fort Hancock Pumping Station in 1911 when John Francis Mulhern worked there. 1 John Mulhern in ROTC uniform at Battery Arrowsmith c. 1925. Photos courtesy of Gateway NRA/NPS Editor’s notes in parenthesis ( ) EH: Today is August 14, 1982. We have the honor of having as our guest John Joseph Patrick Mulhern and James Leo Mulhern. It is August 14th and my name is Elaine Harmon. I work at the Sandy Hook Museum as Park Technician, Museum Services. JLM: I am James Leo Mulhern. I was born on Sandy Hook on January 1, 1912. At least that is what the birth certificate says although there is a bit of argument as to the exact date. The certificate was issued by a doctor at the old Post Hospital and it indicates that I was born at the Post Hospital but we believe that I was actually born in my parents’ home at Camp Low. My father at the time was an employee, a civilian employee, of the Army and he was working at the old Power Plant and Pumping Station at Camp Low. And we lived in a house immediately across the street from the plant. The number of the building I do not know but the house is still there. I was the youngest of four children and of the four I was the only one born at Sandy Hook.

  • The Worlds of the Seventeenth-Century Hudson Valley
    1 The Seventeenth-Century Empire of the Dutch Republic, c. 1590–1672 Jaap Jacobs he overseas expansion of the Dutch Republic, culminating in the “First Dutch Empire,” is a remarkable story of the quick rise to prominence of a small country in northwestern Europe. Much smaller Tin population than European rivals like Spain, England, and France, and without considerable natural resources, the Republic was able within a few decades to lay the foundation for a colonial empire of which remnants are still part of the Kingdom of the Netherlands nowadays. This First Dutch Empire, running roughly from the beginning of the seventeenth century until the early 1670s, was characterized by rapid expansion, both in the Atlantic area and in Asia. The phase that followed, the Second Dutch Empire, shows a divergence in development between the East and West. In the East, ter- ritorial expansion—often limited to trading posts, not settlement colonies— continued and trade volume increased, but in the Western theater the Dutch witnessed a contraction of territorial possessions, especially with the loss of New Netherland and Dutch Brazil. Even so, Dutch trade and shipping in the Atlantic was not solely dependent upon colonial footholds, not in the least because the Dutch began to participate in the Atlantic slave trade. This Second Dutch Empire ended in the Age of Democratic Revolutions, when upheavals in Europe and America brought an end to both the Dutch East and West India Companies and led to the loss of a number of colonies, such as South Africa, Sri Lanka, and Essequibo and Demerara on the Guyana coast.

  • Quaternary Stratigraphy of Suriname 561
    559 QUATERNARYSTRATIGRAPHY OF SURINAME The0 E. WONGl Abstract In this paper the Quatemary sediments of the Coastal Plain of Suriname are highlighted since they were recently subjected to a stratigraphical revision. The Pleistocene Coropina Formation, constituting the Old Coastal Plain, has now formally been subdivided into the Para and Lelydorp Members. The sedimentary history of these units has been well-documented in the past, relating high sea levels to inter-glacials and regressions to glacials. In the light of modem Quaternary stratigraphical considerations and the results of recent Brazilian investigations, the hitherto assumed Late Pleistocene age for the entire Coropina Formation has become questionable. Traditionally, all Holocene sediments in the Young Coastal Plain were grouped into the Demerara Formation. It is now realized that the Demerara Formation comprises widely differing lithologies which should not be grouped in one formation. Moreover, the name Demerara Formation has been associated too closely with the geomorphological unit Young Coastal Plain and with its Holocene age. Therefore it has been proposed to abandon the name Demerara and to attribute the status of formation to two of its most distinct lithologies (Mara and Coronie). Within the Coronie Formation three morphostratigraphic units (Wanica, Moleson and Comowine) represent oscillations of the sea. Part of these oscillations seems to correlate with Brazilian events but additional researchis needed. Résumé Le Quaternaire du Surinam a fait récemment l’objet d’une révision stratigraphique.La Formation COROPINA (Pléistocène) - qui constitue le soubassement de la plaine côtière “ancienne”- est subdivisée en deux membres: PARA (faciès argileux,à la base) et LELYDORP (faciès sableux, au sommet), dont évolution a été interprétée comme liée à des oscillations du niveau marin.
