Index (1983-1994) INDEX (1983-1994) THE HISTORIC NEW ORLEANS COLLECTION NEWSLETTER/QUARTERLY In January 1983 the inaugural issue of the Historic New Orleans Collection Newsletter - a quarterly designed to highlight the activities and holdings of the Collection - appeared. Some features of the first issue - "From the Director," "Acquisitions," and "Staff News"-have continued in every subsequent issue. Other recurring articles have been "Historic New Orleans," "Preservation," and "Focus," highlight­ ing important items from the permanent collection. The second through the seventh issues introduced friends of the Collection to the board of directors and to the duties and personnel of the Collection's several departments, while the first "Profile," an interview with the director emeritus Boyd Cruise in winter 1983 began an occasional and continuing series. By winter 1992, the publication had emerged as a significant journal of historical record and a strong contribution to the mission of the Collection. Changing its name to the Historic New Orleans Quarterly merely reflected the recognition of these happy realities. The Quarterly traces is own history to May 1982, when Stanton M. Frazar, then director of the Collection, named Patricia Brady to create a publications department responsible for books, catalogues, and ephemeral publications. Dr. Brady and Gail Larsen Peterkin coedited the newsletter until 1984, when Ms. Peterkin left the Collection to write her dissertation. Her successor, Louise C. Hoffman, recently began her second decade as coeditor. Originally designed by Michael Ledet, the Newsletter/Quarterly has maintained a consistent overall format, with subtle changes through the years. Caledonia, the original type used for body text was changed in spring 1988 to Century, and in spring 1991 to Garamond. The original paper stock, Curtis Linen, was changed to Karma in spring 1990 to facilitate increased use of color illustrations. All issues contain 16 pages, except autumn 1983, which was expanded to 20 pages to accommodate an unusual amount of copy. Originally printed in two colors, the newsletter debuted in four-color process for the sum­ mer 1991 issue honoring the reopening of the renovated history galleries. The Quarterly was freshened by Michael Ledet in winter 1993 and, since then, has been printed in process color. Few institutional newsletters warrant a published index, but the Historic New Orleans Collection Quarterly has fulfilled its founders' hopes. To be sure, the Quarterly acquaints friends and supporters with activities and programs at the Collection and constitutes an informal chronicle of the institution and its people. Good scholarship and high editorial standards have created a store of accurate information about New Orleans in demand by ever increasing numbers of researchers. Gratitude for this valuable resource rightly belongs to the editors and the Quarterljs many contributing authors. Just as the curators, librari­ ans, and archivists welcome visitors to the Collection's reading rooms and galleries, so now does this useful index welcome researchers to the pages of the Historic New Orleans Collection Quarterly. Jon Kukla Director This subject index includes feature articles, staff profiles, exhibitions, and acquisitions found in the Historic New Orleans Collection Newsletter/Quarterly. Not included in this index are news items of an ephemeral nature, staff news, "From the Director" columns, and announcements of THNOC publica­ tions. While photographs and illustrations are not specifically indexed, they can be found under the perti­ nent name or subject. To find artworks or books, look under the author's or artist's name. Only newspapers, magazines, and other works without authors are indexed by tide. To find names of collections, papers, businesses, or foundations named for persons, look under the last name of the person. For example, Ochsner (Dr. Alton) Papers. For general information about New Orleans or Louisiana, look under these subject headings. However, most specific information will be found under the subject or person's name.

  • John T. Adams
    John T. Adams John T. Adams, 84, of Cross Plains TX, passed away Tuesday 5/3/11 at home with his wife and sister with him. He was born in Midland, TX on 4/6/27 to John Elkins Adams and Elna Enyart Adams. They moved to Colorado City shortly after his birth, where he spent his childhood and teen years, graduating from Colorado High School in 1944. Johnny, as he was known to family and friends, eagerly joined the Navy immediately upon graduation, and served in the Pacific theater, mainly on the island of Guam. At the war’s end, he returned to Colorado City, and worked for the Post Office, and shortly thereafter became engaged to his lifelong love, Bettye Sue Vaught. They were married on 12/24/47, and embarked on a remarkable 63 year journey together. He went to work for Shell Pipe Line Corp. as a pipeliner in 1950, in Wink, TX. He and Bettye Sue drove into town in a brand new Ford Crestliner that remains in the family to this day. Their career with Shell took them to several locales, in West Texas and South Louisiana, offering the opportunity to experience varied cultures and lifestyles. He retired from Shell in 1984, as District Superintendant, in Midland, TX. In 1953, after the birth of their first son, Tommy, they purchased acreage in Callahan Co., near Cross Plains, TX. In partnership with his sister Elizabeth and her husband Pat Shield. They farmed, ran cows on the place, and fell in love with the area, their neighbors, and people of Cross Plains.
