Box 2096 Norfolk, VA 2350 1 PREPAREDRX Tidewater Atlantic Research, Inc. P. 0. Box 2494 Washington, North Carolina 27889 PROJECTD~RE~TOR: Gordon P. Watts, Jr. AUT~RS: Gordon Watts Roderick Mather Raymond Tubby During the excavation of a ferry docking facility on the Southern Branch of the Elizabeth River in downtown Portsmouth, Virginia, the remains of a wooden vessel were discovered. Construction crews uncovered two sections of the vessel approximately 20-25 ft. below the gound surface. As construction of the ferry facility necessitated removal of the wreck, Ham- p ton Roads Transit contracted with Tidewater Atlantic Research, I nc. (TAR), of Washington, North Carolina, to develop a measured ~lanof the surviving vessel remains prior to their removal and document each significant element of the structure after removal. The archaeo- logical documentation carried out by TAR was designed to meet the provisions of Section 106 of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966, as amended through 1992 (36 CFR 800, Protection of Historic Proper+ties) and the Abandoned Shipwreck Act of 1987 (Abandoned Ship- wreck Act Guidelines, National Park Service, Federal Register, Vol. 55, No. 3, December 4, 1990, pages 50 1 16-50 145). Results of the investigation mitigate construction related im- pacts to the resource by preserving the detailed architectural and construction-record associated with the surviving hull structure. Architectural and construction details suggest that the vessel was built and sank during the late eighteenth or early nineteenth century, probably during the Revolutionary War or perhaps the War of 18 12. Unique construction features and unusual material suggest that the vessel was built locally for a limited purpose such as privateering, smuggling, or serving as an ersatz fire ship.

  • The Lake George Bateaux
    THE LAKE GEORGE BATEAUX: BRITISH COLONIAL UTILITY CRAFT IN THE FRENCH AND INDIAN WAR A Thesis by NATHAN A. GALLAGHER Submitted to the Office of Graduate and Professional Studies of Texas A&M University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARTS Chair of Committee, Donny L. Hamilton Committee Members, Kevin J. Crisman James C. Bradford Dead of Department, Cynthia Werner May 2015 Major Subject: Anthropology Copyright 2015 Nathan A. Gallagher ABSTRACT Bateaux were a key utility craft in military operations in the colonies of North America. Their size, durability, and ease of construction made them ideal for moving troops and supplies over the lakes and rivers of New York, New England and New France. General descriptions of bateaux are found in the historical record, but the archaeological record shows that they took several distinct forms between their advent in the late seventeenth century and the nineteenth century. This often causes confusion when bateaux are discussed by historians. This thesis provides a construction analysis of the remains of British colonial bateaux used during the French and Indian War. Comparison of these remains, which were recovered from Lake George and stored at the New York State Museum, provides a snapshot of British military bateau construction during the mid-eighteenth century. The examples and reconstruction of the Lake George bateaux presented in this paper show that the craft were built from a very simple design, but still required some expertise to achieve the level of craftsmanship in boatbuilding that is seen in the final result. Although these bateaux were hastily and lightly constructed, they were sturdy enough to survive the lakes and rivers they were expected to traverse.

  • Bibliography of North Carolina Underwater Archaeology
    i BIBLIOGRAPHY OF NORTH CAROLINA UNDERWATER ARCHAEOLOGY Compiled by Barbara Lynn Brooks, Ann M. Merriman, Madeline P. Spencer, and Mark Wilde-Ramsing Underwater Archaeology Branch North Carolina Division of Archives and History April 2009 ii FOREWARD In the forty-five years since the salvage of the Modern Greece, an event that marks the beginning of underwater archaeology in North Carolina, there has been a steady growth in efforts to document the state’s maritime history through underwater research. Nearly two dozen professionals and technicians are now employed at the North Carolina Underwater Archaeology Branch (N.C. UAB), the North Carolina Maritime Museum (NCMM), the Wilmington District U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (COE), and East Carolina University’s (ECU) Program in Maritime Studies. Several North Carolina companies are currently involved in conducting underwater archaeological surveys, site assessments, and excavations for environmental review purposes and a number of individuals and groups are conducting ship search and recovery operations under the UAB permit system. The results of these activities can be found in the pages that follow. They contain report references for all projects involving the location and documentation of physical remains pertaining to cultural activities within North Carolina waters. Each reference is organized by the location within which the reported investigation took place. The Bibliography is divided into two geographical sections: Region and Body of Water. The Region section encompasses studies that are non-specific and cover broad areas or areas lying outside the state's three-mile limit, for example Cape Hatteras Area. The Body of Water section contains references organized by defined geographic areas.

  • A Contribution Towards a Vascular Flora of the Great Dismal Swamp
    - i -. A Contribution towards a Vascular Flora of the Great Dismal Swamp LYTTON J. MUSSELMAN, DANIEL L. NICKRENT, AND GERALD F. LEVY r Reprinted from RHODORA, Vol. 79, No. 818, April 1977 pages 240-268 - A CONTRIBUTION TOW ARDS A VASCULAR FLORA OF THE GREAT DISMAL SWAMP LYTTON J. MUSSELMAN, DANIELL. NICKRENT,1 AND GERALD F. LEVY This flora is an enumeration of the vascular plants growing without cultivation in the Great Dismal Swamp. It is hoped that this work will be of value to the rapidly increasing number of persons visiting the swamp, particularly since the establishment of the Dismal Swamp National Wildlife Refuge in 1973. Great pains have been taken to ensure completeness of the inventory presented here. Yet, the Dismal Swamp is difficult to botanize, and additional species will undoubtedly be added to the present list. Previous botanical work in the swamp is listed in Kirk et al. (in press). LOCATION AND EXTENT OF AREA The Great Dismal Swamp, which occupies about 104,000 ha. of North Carolina and Virginia (Figure 1), is one of the largest remaining swamp forests on the Coastal Plain. Although the swamp is considered to be centered around Lake Drummond in the Virginia cities of Suffolk and Chesapeake, it extends into the North Carolina counties of Currituck, Camden, Perquimans, Gates, and Pasquotank. Except for the western edge, which is delimited by the Suffolk Escarpment (Henry, 1970), the boundaries of the swamp are not sharply defined. TOPOGRAPHY AND DRAINAGE The Dismal Swamp is situated on a low, poorly drained flat marine terrace which ranges from 4.5 to 7 m.

  • 1Judge John Holland and the Vice- Admiralty Court of the Cape of Good Hope, 1797-1803: Some Introductory and Biographical Notes (Part 1)
    1JUDGE JOHN HOLLAND AND THE VICE- ADMIRALTY COURT OF THE CAPE OF GOOD HOPE, 1797-1803: SOME INTRODUCTORY AND BIOGRAPHICAL NOTES (PART 1) JP van Niekerk* ABSTRACT A British Vice-Admiralty Court operated at the Cape of Good Hope from 1797 until 1803. It determined both Prize causes and (a few) Instance causes. This Court, headed by a single judge, should be distinguished from the ad hoc Piracy Court, comprised of seven members of which the Admiralty judge was one, which sat twice during this period, and also from the occasional naval courts martial which were called at the Cape. The Vice-Admiralty Court’s judge, John Holland, and its main officials and practitioners were sent out from Britain. Key words: Vice-Admiralty Court; Cape of Good Hope; First British Occupation of the Cape; jurisdiction; Piracy Court; naval courts martial; Judge John Holland; other officials, practitioners and support staff of the Vice-Admiralty Court * Professor, Department of Mercantile Law, School of Law, University of South Africa.

He was the first British judicial appointment to the recently acquired settlement and was to serve as judge of the newly created Vice-Admiralty Court of the Cape of Good Hope.

  • Norfolk, Virginia
    Norfolk, Virginia Norfolk, Virginia has a long history with great historical importance. It is the city of my birth, so Norfolk, Virginia is my hometown. I remember as a young child of hearing stories about Norfolk. Today, it is certainly time to show its history and its culture in 2016. It is a city that has the second largest population in any city of Virginia. It has the largest Naval base in the world. It is found in the Elizabeth River, the Chesapeake Bay, and it surrounds the Lafayette River. To the North of Norfolk, we have Newport News, Hampton, Williamsburg, and other locations. To the east of Norfolk lies Virginia Beach. To the south of Norfolk is Chesapeake. Portsmouth and Suffolk is to the west of Norfolk too. All of these locations make up the major cities of Hampton Roads (which is the region that is found in Southeastern Virginia and Northeastern North Carolina). Norfolk is an independent city with many diverse people. It has been through economic issues, racial tensions, and educational problems. Yet, it is still in existence today. As a military oriented city, NATO people, Naval people, Army people, and other people of the military are found here. Numerous neighborhoods in Norfolk (like from Downtown to Norview, Park Place, Ocean View, Berkeley, Olde Huntersville, Park Place, Lamberts Point, Sherwood Forrest, Berkeley, Titus town, Young Park, Coleman Place, Ballentine Place, etc.) go back long decades and centuries. Today, Norfolk is growing and it was founded in 1682. It is the corporate headquarters of Norfolk Southern Railway, which is one of North America’s principal Class I railroads and Maersk Line, Limited (which manages the world’s largest fleet of U.S.

Moss, Principal Investigator Date Dovetail Cultural Resource Group This page intentionally left blank ABSTRACT Dovetail Cultural Resource Group (Dovetail) conducted a background review and windshield study associated with the preparation of a multi-phased work plan to update architectural documentation within the City of Norfolk, Virginia; the study was done between December 2019 and January 2020. The project was completed at the request of the City of Norfolk’s (the City) Department of City Planning in partnership with the Virginia Department of Historic Resources (DHR) Cost Share Survey and Planning Program (Cost Share Program). The study comprised a desktop review of past survey records, reports, and associated materials in DHR’s archives and a citywide windshield survey to identify potential areas in need of resurvey or new survey, including opportunities for thematic or resource-specific survey efforts. Particular attention was paid to resources that have reached 50 years of age since the last citywide survey conducted in 1997 by Hanbury Evans Newill Vlattas & Company (HENV), as well as resources in areas targeted for redevelopment as denoted by the Norfolk Department of Economic Development or susceptible to storm surge and sea level rise flooding as outlined by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) maps (HENV 1997).
