  • Volunteer Manual
    Gundalow Company Volunteer Manual Updated Jan 2018 Protecting the Piscataqua Region’s Maritime Heritage and Environment through Education and Action Table of Contents Welcome Organizational Overview General Orientation The Role of Volunteers Volunteer Expectations Operations on the Gundalow Workplace Safety Youth Programs Appendix Welcome aboard! On a rainy day in June, 1982, the replica gundalow CAPTAIN EDWARD H. ADAMS was launched into the Piscataqua River while several hundred people lined the banks to watch this historic event. It took an impressive community effort to build the 70' replica on the grounds of Strawbery Banke Museum, with a group of dedicated shipwrights and volunteers led by local legendary boat builder Bud McIntosh. This event celebrated the hundreds of cargo-carrying gundalows built in the Piscataqua Region starting in 1650. At the same time, it celebrated the 20th-century creation of a unique teaching platform that travelled to Piscataqua region riverfront towns carrying a message that raised awareness of this region's maritime heritage and the environmental threats to our rivers. For just over 25 years, the ADAMS was used as a dock-side attraction so people could learn about the role of gundalows in this region’s economic development as well as hundreds of years of human impact on the estuary. When the Gundalow Company inherited the ADAMS from Strawbery Banke Museum in 2002, the opportunity to build a new gundalow that could sail with students and the public became a priority, and for the next decade, we continued the programs ion the ADAMS while pursuing the vision to build a gundalow that could be more than a dock-side attraction.

Schuler Virginia Adams, PAL Local Project Coordinator Rebecca Curran, Town Planner Local Heritage Landscape Participants Wayne Butler Rebecca Curran Bill Conly Charlie Dalferro Joseph Homan Bette Hunt Judy Jacobi John Liming Frank McIver Ed Nilsson Miller Shropshire William Woodfin May 2005 INTRODUCTION Essex County is known for its unusually rich and varied landscapes, which are represented in each of its 34 municipalities. Heritage landscapes are places that are created by human interaction with the natural environment. They are dynamic and evolving; they reflect the history of the community and provide a sense of place; they show the natural ecology that influenced land use patterns; and they often have scenic qualities. This wealth of landscapes is central to each community’s character; yet heritage landscapes are vulnerable and ever changing. For this reason it is important to take the first steps towards their preservation by identifying those landscapes that are particularly valued by the community – a favorite local farm, a distinctive neighborhood or mill village, a unique natural feature, an inland river corridor or the rocky coast. To this end, the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR) and the Essex National Heritage Commission (ENHC) have collaborated to bring the Heritage Landscape Inventory program (HLI) to communities in Essex County.

  • Fort Sewall History and Research Project
    Grants Fund Historical Research in 2020 th for 375 Anniversary of Fort Sewall in 2019 Established in 1644, 375 years ago, Marblehead’s Fort Sewall is beloved for its spectacular views over Marblehead Harbor and beyond. But, it is also rare and important as one of only a very few early coastal defensive earthwork forts from the 1600s still existing on the North American continent. This summer, preservation and site renovations to improve visitor accessibility are well underway. Approved by town-wide vote last year, the work is managed by McGinley Kalsow & Associates Inc., and is overseen by the Town’s Fort Sewall Oversight Committee. In addition to the voter-approved funding for the improvements, the preservation work is supported by $210,000 in grant awards from state agencies (the Massachusetts Cultural Council through its Cultural Facilities Fund and MassDevelopment, as well as the Massachusetts Historical Commission through its Preservation Projects Fund) as well as by generous individual donations. The donations will also support a summer Fort Ranger docent program and an endowment for ongoing fort maintenance. The Fort Sewall Oversight Committee is also pleased to announce that three grants totaling nearly $10,000 for historical research and education about the fort were awarded this year by two phil- anthropic historical organizations: the Massachusetts Society of the Cincinnati and the Massachusetts Society of Colonial Wars (with a match from the parent organization, the General Society of C. Wars). The research will result in a comprehensive report about the fort’s evolution over nearly three centuries, from its establishment in 1644 until 1922, when national U.S.
