  • 2205 Oak Park Lane
    City of Santa Barbara Planning Division Memorandum MEETING DATE: July 8, 2020 TO: Historic Landmarks Commission FROM: Nicole Hernandez, City Urban Historian SUBJECT: St. Paul’s AME Church, HLC Landmark Recommendation to City Council Purpose: The purpose of this Memorandum is to provide a brief overview of the information to be presented in the attached City Landmark designation nomination: Background: In its meeting on July 11, 2018, the HLC Designation Sub-Committee directed staff to pursue the Landmark Designation of the architecturally and historically significant, African American, St. Paul’s AME Church at 502 Olive Street, that the Historic Landmarks Commission added to the Potential Historic Resource List in 1990. Nicole Hernandez, Staff Urban Historian, sent a letter to St. Paul’s AME Church on March 15, 2019, notifying the Church that the building is both architecturally and historically significant to the City of Santa Barbara and qualifies for City Landmark designation. In May of 2019, Nicole Hernandez met with the Church leadership to discuss the details of a Landmark designation. The church took the information to the larger AME District for support of the designation. Attached to this memo and nomination is the letter of support of the Landmark designation by Presiding Bishop of the Fifth District AME Church. The nomination prepared on the California State Department of Parks and Recreation Form by Robert Ooley with the assistance of Architectural Historians: Mary Louise Days, Hattie Beresford, and Mike Imwalle, with additional Support by Nicole Hernandez, Urban Historian, Anne Petersen SBTHP, and St. Paul AME Church Representatives, outlines in detail, how the church meets five of the criteria outlined in the Santa Barbara Municipal Code to qualify for Landmark designation.

  • Gazette 1905 - 1909
    Index: Middleboro Gazette 1905 - 1909 Introduction The Middleboro Gazette Index, 1905 - 1909 is a guide to the information contained within the Middleboro Gazette during the period January 1905 through December 1909. The information is as it appears in the newspaper and no attempt has been made to verify that the information given in the newspaper is accurate. The focus of the index is on the communities of Middleboro and Lakeville, Massachusetts. News from outside these geographic areas is included only if there is a direct link to these towns, i.e., Phineas T. Barnum and the Little People. Special notations are used within the index to designate editorials (e), letters (l), tables (t), photographs (p) and illustrations (i). Authors of editorials or letters are cited either within the headline or in parentheses immediately following either (e) or (l). The often informal nature of reporting presents special challenges to researchers. Additional information about specific businesses, town departments or other concerns can be located under general headines, i.e., Railroads, Streets, etc. Names are a particular challenge in a compilation of this kind. Multiple spellings, misspellings and incomplete names are just a few of the hurdles that must be overcome in order to glean every bit of information contained within the pages of the Gazette. For example, Mr. Elnathan W. Wilbur may be cited as any or all of the following: Wilbur, Elnathan W. Wilbur, Elnathan Wilbur, E.W. Wilbur, E. Wilbur (Mr) Wilbur (Captain) Mr. Wilbur’s last name may also be spelled, Wilbor, Wilber, Wilbour or Wilbur. In addition married women were also frequently cited as Mrs.

  • Reengaging Blues Narratives: Alan Lomax, Jelly Roll Morton and W.C. Handy ©
    REENGAGING BLUES NARRATIVES: ALAN LOMAX, JELLY ROLL MORTON AND W.C. HANDY By Vic Hobson A dissertation submitted to the School of Music, In partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy, University of East Anglia (March 2008) Copyright 2008 All rights reserved © This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived therefrom, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. i Acknowledgments This for me has been a voyage of discovery and I count myself fortunate to have enjoyed the process. This has been due, in no small part, to the support, help and encouragement that I have received along the way. People who, in the early days of my research, had been only names on the covers of books are now real; all have been helpful, most have been enthusiastic and some I now count as friends. The School of Music at the University of East Anglia is a small school in a rapidly expanding university which was led for many years by David Chadd who sadly died before the completion of this work. Fortunately the foundations he laid are secure and I have benefited from the knowledge and experience of all of the staff of the school, in particular my supervisor Jonathan Impett. Among Jonathan’s contributions, above and beyond the normal duties of a PhD supervisor is to have shown faith in a thesis that initially must have seemed rather unlikely.

The lead article mixes memoir with analysis of the importance of home and homeplace to people from the Appalachians, many of whom are forced to leave permanently in search of work. A second article considers the strange contrast betwecl outsiders' fascination with things Appalachian and some nativesdesire to get rid of their country accent and country ways, pointing out the difficulty for some insiders to feel comfortable inside. Contradicting the stereotype of the Appalachian hillbilly, there are profiles of Appalachian residents of Italian, Jewish, Chinese, and Filipino descent who maintained their native traditions. Other articles include selections from a new novel by Gurney Norman and from the journals of novelist Harriet Simpson Arnow, and memories of a city boy who felt superior to his country cousins. There ale also reviews of two novels about Appalachia for children, a colle7.tion of essays about urban Appalachians, Appalachian poetry, Baptist worship practices, and reviews of films about migration into and out of Appalachia and a rural North Carolina autobiography.
