The Annals of Iowa for Their Critiques
The Annals of Volume 66, Numbers 3 & 4 Iowa Summer/Fall 2007 A QUARTERLY JOURNAL OF HISTORY In This Issue J. L. ANDERSON analyzes the letters written between Civil War soldiers and their farm wives on the home front. In those letters, absent husbands provided advice, but the wives became managers and diplomats who negotiated relationships with kin and neighbors to provision and shelter their families and to preserve their farms. J. L. Anderson is assistant professor of history and assistant director of the Center for Public History at the University of West Georgia. DAVID BRODNAX SR. provides the first detailed description of the role of Iowa’s African American regiment, the 60th United States Colored Infantry, in the American Civil War and in the struggle for black suffrage after the war. David Brodnax Sr. is associate professor of history at Trinity Christian College in Palos Heights, Illinois. TIMOTHY B. SMITH describes David B. Henderson’s role in securing legislation to preserve Civil War battlefields during the golden age of battlefield preservation in the 1890s. Timothy B. Smith, a veteran of the National Park Service, now teaches at the University of Tennessee at Martin. Front Cover Milton Howard (seated, left) was born in Muscatine County in 1845, kidnapped along with his family in 1852, and sold into slavery in the South. After escaping from his Alabama master during the Civil War, he made his way north and later fought for three years in the 60th U.S. Colored Infantry. For more on Iowa’s African American regiment in the Civil War, see David Brodnax Sr.’s article in this issue. -

Uptown Girl: the Andresen Flats and the West End by Marion Meginnis
Uptown Girl: The Andresen Flats and the West End By Marion Meginnis Spring 2015 HP613 Urban History Goucher College M.H.P Program Consistent with the Goucher College Academic Honor Code, I hereby affirm that this paper is my own work, that there was no collaboration between myself and any other person in the preparation of this paper (I.B.1), and that all work of others incorporated herein is acknowledged as to author and source by either notation or commentary (I.B.2). _____________ (signature) ___________ (date) The Andresen Flats The Andresen Flats and its neighborhood are tied to the lives of Davenport, Iowa’s earliest German settlers, people who chose Davenport as a place of political refuge and who gave and demanded much of their new community. At times, their heritage and beliefs would place them on a collision course with fellow citizens with different but equally deeply felt beliefs. The conflicts played out against the backdrop of national events occurring less than a hundred years after the city’s founding and just a few years after the Andresen was built. The changes that followed and the shift in how Davenporters lived in their city forever altered the course of the neighborhood, the building, and the citizens who peopled both. Built by German immigrant H. H. Andresen in 1900, the Flats dominates its corner at Western Avenue and West 3rd Street in downtown Davenport. The city is located at one of the points where the Mississippi River’s flow is diverted from its north/south orientation to run west. -

Buffalo Bill Museum
June, July, August, 2015 www.leclairechamber.com Buffalo Bill Museum – Suiter Family Chris Craft Boat Installation With legendary local banker and river enthusiast Glen Suiter’s passing in May of 2013, the Suiter family has decided to honor Glen and his passion for boating, the Mississippi River, and the rich history that the LeClaire Buffalo Bill Museum in Le- Claire, Iowa offers visitors. The Suiter Family has generously donated Glen’s historical, artisan Chris Craft wooden boat for display at the museum to add to their growing collection of fascinating cultural artifacts. The artisan (Pre-War) 1939 Chris Craft Utility Series 15.5’ Runabout was built to fare the lakes and rivers of a nation moving up stream. Chris Smith, founder of the company that would one day bear his name, started his business with the vision of building a boat that was as versatile and reliable as the public demanded it. Originally intended for hunters and fishermen, the Chris Craft line soon expanded eventually earning it the distinction as the largest mahogany boat manufacturer in the world. With the United States recovering from the pains of the Great De- pression, Chris Craft built the Utility Series to be both practical and affordable. During the years of World War II, Navy sailors became familiar with Chris Craft designs as the company produced more than 10,000 wooden landing craft for WWII vessels to aid in the war effort. The boat donated to the Buffalo Bill Museum in LeClaire, Glen Suiter Iowa by the Suiter family is a fully restored example of the Ameri- can craftsmanship that to this day sets a Chris Craft apart. -

Marion Meginnis HP 601 December 3, 2014 Term Paper Intent and Outcome: a River Town Retrieves Its Past in 1979, Davenport
Marion Meginnis HP 601 December 3, 2014 Term Paper Intent and Outcome: A River Town Retrieves Its Past In 1979, Davenport began a massive multiple listing effort to nominate properties to the National Register. For Iowa, the effort was unprecedented; it was the first such nomination to be approved by the state and its scope was larger than that of any other Iowa municipality.1 When completed in the 1980’s, more than half of all Iowa National Register properties were located in Davenport.2 In many cities across America, the 1966 passage of the National Historic Preservation Act, the development of state historic preservation offices and enthusiasm for local history surrounding the nation’s Bicentennial celebration triggered local preservation efforts like Davenport’s. Other factors impacting cities and society in the 1970s and 1980s were also in play--a shrinking downtown and move to the suburbs, new voices in the political arena, aggressive transportation planning and dramatic shifts in the area’s economy-- that helped and hindered historic preservation in the old town by the Mississippi. For those whose lives were touched by the effort in Davenport as activists, politicians, business people, journalists, or citizens, what occurred…or is remembered today…varies over the two decades being explored. Davenport is a Mississippi River town platted in 1836 by French/Native American trader Antoine LeClaire. Its geography confuses the unfamiliar since it is sited at one of the few places where the great river flows west. So what would be “west” for most Mississippi River towns is Davenport’s “north.” Any discussion of the city must include a mention of its Iowa and Illinois sister cities.
