Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities Records Addition, 1950-2007 State of Tennessee Department of State Tennessee State Library and Archives ASSOCIATION FOR THE PRESERVATION OF TENNESSEE ANTIQUITIES RECORDS ADDITION, 1950-2007 COLLECTION SUMMARY Creator: Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities Inclusive Dates: 1950-2007, bulk 1980-2007 Scope & Content: The Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities Records Addition spans the period 1950-2007. The collection focuses on the day-to-day operations of the association and its chapters. It consists primarily of chapter dues records, chapter treasurer reports, correspondence, the Endowment Fund Committee records, financial reports, fund requests, lists of chapter officers and members, board meeting minutes, newsletters, newspaper clippings, and photographs. Physical Description/Extent: 17.5 cubic feet Accession/Record Group Number: Ac. no. 2010-013 Language: English Permanent Location: IV-M-4-6 Repository: Tennessee State Library and Archives, 403 Seventh Avenue North, Nashville, Tennessee, 37243-0312 Administrative/Biographical History Thirty Nashville women founded the Association for the Preservation of Tennessee Antiquities (APTA) in 1951 to "acquire, restore, and preserve Tennessee's historic buildings and landmarks." On November 8, 1951, approximately one hundred charter members attended the first official APTA meeting at the Noel Hotel in Nashville where they heard an address by Dr. Robert H. White and elected Mrs. Allan Van Ness as the first president. A chartered nonprofit Tennessee corporation, APTA "promotes and encourages active participation in the preservation of Tennessee's rich historic, cultural, architectural, and archaeological heritage through restoration, education, advocacy, and statewide cooperation." A statewide board of directors governs the association and chapter presidents serve ex officio on the board. In 1982, APTA established an endowment fund to provide grants to chapters for restoration work and educational programs. An independent board of trustees administers the fund. An APTA Board of Trust must approve new chapters when real property is involved and must also approve the purchase or sale of real property. Membership in APTA is open to anyone interested in preserving Tennessee's cultural heritage. Membership may be through a local chapter or directly with APTA headquarters in Nashville. APTA membership fees support historic preservation and entitle members to free admission at all APTA sites, a newsletter, APTA-sponsored tours, and an annual membership meeting at Belle Meade Plantation in Nashville. Membership through a local chapter brings additional benefits established by that chapter. The APTA sites are: Belle Meade Plantation (1807), which serves as statewide APTA headquarters, administered by the Nashville Chapter; The Athenaeum Rectory (1835) in Columbia, Maury County Chapter; Buchanan Log House (1800-1810), Donelson- Hermitage Chapter; Ramsey House Plantation (1795-97), Knoxville Chapter; Glenmore Mansion (1868-69), Glenmore Chapter, Jefferson City; Crockett Tavern Museum (1796, authentic log cabin replica), Hamblen County Chapter, Morristown; Fort Blount (1796, proposed reconstruction), Fort Blount Chapter, Gainesboro; Rachel K. Burrow Museum (1905), Historic Post Office (1900) and Log Cabin, Arlington Chapter; The Pillars (1826- 29) and Little Courthouse (1824), Hardeman County Chapter, Bolivar; Hannum-Wirt- Rhea House (1832), Somerville, Fayette County Chapter; and Woodruff-Fontaine House (1870) and Lee House (1871), Memphis Chapter. Four other chapters in Bedford, Hawkins, Rutherford, and Sullivan Counties promote local heritage programs in their communities but do not currently maintain sites. A board of directors with the responsibility for preserving, maintaining, and interpreting each site governs each APTA chapter. Volunteers and employed staff members mount seasonal exhibits and hold fund-raising events. Chapters provide numerous educational programs designed to reach people of all ages and cultural backgrounds to help them learn more about the way their ancestors lived.

    Volume 38 Issue 3 Be always sure you are right, then April 2020 Go Ahead! ND KIN OF DAVID CROCKETT Crockett Family Reunion 2020 GO AHEAD DIRECT DESCENDANTS A Greeneville, Tennessee From the President Tim Massey Crockett Family and Friends I don’t think I need to tell you that we are in uncertain waters. If you recall the story of David crossing the flooded Obed River in chest-deep water feeling for the foot log to cross the river itself with his foot, well that is how I feel now. COVID-19 has affected everything from getting the newsletter out, to our t-shirt design, to are we going to be able to have the 2020 reunion at all. As it stands right now, the reunion is on as planned. States are planning to start returning to normalcy in May. Time will be the only measure we have to see if this thing passes as hoped. Your officers and board of directors have kept careful watch on the situation and feel at this time we can proceed with the reunion as planned. However, we will not put our family and friends in harms-way. If there is any question or doubts, the reunion will be rescheduled or moved to a later, safer time. As of right now, like you, I cannot predict the future. We do not want to compro- mise the heath and safety of our members, or the quality of the reunion experi- ence. With that said, the t-shirt design will incorporate the Crockett image on the front cover of this issue.

  • Morristown Walking and Driving Tour
    TOUR OVERVIEW This tour was developed as a collaboration between the Center for Historic Preservation at Middle Tennessee State University and the Crossroads Downtown Partnership of Morristown. It is designed in two parts: core sites of downtown Morristown, including a walking tour of the central business district, comprising the first part, and a second part that takes travelers to other parts of Hamblen County along the Andrew Johnson Highway corridor. Special thanks to the Rose Center for the Arts, which provided the historic images from the Noe Collection. HISTORY OF MORRISTOWN At one time, downtown Morristown looked much like any other Main Street in Tennessee, with department stores, dry goods stores, a bank, and various offices. a few hundred yards to the west of the modern commercial core, the current downtown area once served as a watering hole for nearby farms. Turkey Creek, which now runs under 148 W Main St, provided a locus around which a community formed in the mid-19th century. Turkey Creek’s significance derived in part from its proximity to the junction of two major transportation routes: the “Buffalo Trail,” which ran north-south (now Cumberland Street), and the “Great Road” running east-west (now Main Street). Both roads long predated the settlement but became central to its growth over the course of the 19th century. The Buffalo Trail probably originated as an animal path leading to salt licks along the Clinch River, while the Great Road, a stage road connecting Knoxville to Abingdon, Virginia, may have begun as a path used by native peoples prior to colonization.

  • Producers Talk Crockett Tourism
    Producers talk Crockett tourism Posted on Thursday, July 12, 2012 at 10:59 am Todd Morgan, director of the Crossroads Downtown Partnership, Sally Baker, site director of the Crockett Tavern Museum, Gary Foreman and Carolyn Raine-Foreman, Native Sun Productions and Lila Wilson, director of tourism for the Morristown Area Chamber of Commerce, met Wednesday in downtown Morristown to tour its historic architecture and talk about the Foremans’ potential work with Morristown on several projects. Twin passions for downtown revitalization and Davy Crockett history brought husband wife team Gary Foreman and Carolyn Raine-Foreman, independent producers who have created documentaries for the History Channel, to downtown Morristown Wednesday. Raine-Foreman explained that they have several projects in the works that involve Morristown, including the creation of the Crockett Heritage Trail and other potential tie-ins their production company, Native Sun Productions could offer toward Morristown’s downtown revitalization. The pair is working with the History Channel and the state of Tennessee on the Crockett Heritage Trail, which would connect Crockett historical sites in Tennessee in a trail that would lead tourists from one to the next. Three sites are already on board, Raine-Foreman said, Morristown’s Crockett Tavern Museum, the Davy Crockett birthplace and the East Tennessee Historical Society museum in Knoxville. Others have shown interest. She said there are at least 20 Crockett sites in Tennessee, but likely more. She wants them all to be connected. If the interest exists, they’re also hoping to connect with Crockett sites in other states, trailing his journey from Washington D.C.
