  • A Roxbury Review: Conglomerates of Greater Boston
    C2-1 A ROXBURY REVIEW by Margaret D. Thompson, Department of Geosciences, Wellesley College Anne M. Grunow, Byrd Polar Research Center, Ohio State University INTRODUCTION Conglomerate throughout the Boston Basin in eastern Massachusetts (Fig. 1) has long been called after the Roxbury district of Boston (early references in Holmes, 1859 and Shaler, 1869) and subdivided into three members typified by strata in the encircling communities of Brookline, Dorchester and the Squantum section of Quincy, MA (Emerson, 1917). NEIGC field trips, beginning with one led by W.O. Crosby in 1905, and also GSA-related field trips have provided regular opportunities for generations of geologists to debate the depositional settings of all of these rocks, particularly the possible glacial origin of the Squantum "Tillite". It appears, however, that none of these outings has ever included a stop in Roxbury itself (Table I and lettered localities in Fig. 1). A main purpose of this trip will be to visit the nominal Roxbury type locality in a section of the historic quarries where recent re-development includes the newly opened Puddingstone Park. Other stops will permit comparison of type Roxbury Conglomerate with other rocks traditionally assigned to this formation and highlight geochronological and paleomagnetic data bearing on the ages of these units.

In his seventies he began his memoir to tell his children of "God's remarkable providences . in bringing me to this land." A devout man, he interprets the lack of food for his body as part of God's providing food for the soul, in this case the souls of the Puritans as they created their religious haven. thought good, my dear children, to leave with you some account of God’s remarkable providences to me, in bringing me into this land and placing me here among his dear servants and in his house, who I am most unworthy of the least of his mercies. The Scripture requireth us to tell God’s wondrous works to our children, that they may tell them to their children, that God may have glory throughout all ages. Amen. I was born in England, in Sallcom, in Devonshire, in the year of our Lord 1609. My father was a man fearing God, and in good esteem among God’s faithful servants. His outward estate was not great, I think not above £80 per annum.1 We were five brethren (of which I was the youngest) and two sisters.

    Boston Harbor Islands Partnership Meeting Minutes Hale & Dorr, 60 State Street, 26th Floor June 15, 2004, 3:00 PM – 4:45 PM Attendees: Joe Ferrino and Bill Hale—Boston Harbor Islands Advisory Council; Cathy Douglas Stone and Andrea d’Amato—City of Boston, Department of Environmental Services; Maynard Goldman and Tom Powers—Island Alliance; Marianne Connolly for Fred Laskey—Massachusetts Water Resources Authority (MWRA); George Price and Terry Savage—National Park Service (NPS). Cathy Douglas Stone, Vice-chair, called the meeting to order. A motion was made to approve the minutes of the meeting held on May 18, 2004. The motion was unanimously approved. Opening Comments Maynard Goldman enthusiastically introduced Tom Powers, the new President of Island Alliance. Tom said that this was his first official day in the position and that he was looking forward to working with everyone. Peddocks Island Doug Welch, Island Alliance, reported that the team continues to work with the Massachusetts Historical Commission as they investigate geology and potential groundwater sources on the island. Drilling is expected to commence next week. Doug said that they submitted a grant to the Amelia Peabody Foundation for $1M to rehabilitate the chapel on the island. Based on previous successes with the foundation and a letter written by John F. Kennedy supporting the restoration of the chapel, they are hopeful that it is a compelling project. Doug said that the asbestos remediation of the guardhouse will begin this summer. Bargmann Hendrie & Archetype is managing the project which is funded by the NPS and Duke Energy remediation monies. This will be a very visible project; informational signs will be placed on the island to educate visitors about the work.

The 19th Century was a period of growth for this part of Boston which counted 150 cargo schooners entering her harbor each week. Main cargo items were lumber and coal. Authorities decided that a lifesaving station was needed at some point north of Scituate Harbor. Hull is renowned for its intense nor’easter storms and was the perfect location. Brave men who signed on for this rescue station's intense duty roster were hardy souls with the courage to clamber into a surf boat, plunge the vessel into rough seas and head out to rescue sailors being dashed against jagged rocks. The narrow, one-mile wide inlet is guarded by the 'twin sentries’, a lighthouse and the Hull Lifesaving Station.
