  • SEAFARING WOMEN: an Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships
    SEAFARING WOMEN: An Investigation of Material Culture for Potential Archaeological Diagnostics of Women on Nineteenth-Century Sailing Ships by R. Laurel Seaborn April, 2014 Director of Thesis/Dissertation: Dr. Lynn Harris Major Department: Department of History, Program in Maritime Studies ABSTRACT During the 19th century, women went to sea on sailing ships. Wives and family accompanied captains on their voyages from New England. They wrote journals and letters that detailed their life on board, adventures in foreign ports, and feelings of separation from family left behind. Although the women kept separate from the sailors as class and social status dictated, they contributed as nannies, nurses and navigators when required. Examination of the historical documents, ship cabin plans, and photos of those interiors, as well as looking at surviving ships, such as the whaleship Charles W. Morgan, provided evidence of the objects women brought and used on board. The investigation from a gendered perspective of the extant material culture, and shipwreck site reports laid the groundwork for finding potential archaeological diagnostics of women living on board.

  • RACING SCHOONERS and AMERICA's CUP DREAMS. In
    RACING SCHOONERS AND AMERICA’S CUP DREAMS. In 1851 this schooner sailed from New York to partake in yacht racing at Cowes. She was aptly named the “America”. She was not made to feel particularly welcome in the Solent, partly because she was syndicate owned, unheard of in Britain where racing yachts were owned by one person, preferably Royal, titled or definitely a “gentleman”, and partly because Americans were viewed with some suspicion at the time, and not considered as gentlemen. Subsequently the “America” was barred from entering most of the races. She was, however allowed to race around the Island for the 100 guinea Queen’s Cup which she won, beating the entire fleet of the cream of British racing yachts into the bargain. Yacht racing rules were of a more casual nature in those days, and subsequently a tad ambiguous, so that the win did not go without a few comments about sportsmanship and a certain ill-feeling which set the tone for all subsequent races for this cup. Here is the cup she won, a rather brash, but valuable silver trophy by Garrards of London. This the syndicate took back to the New York Yacht Club, renamed it the “America’s Cup”, and by deed of gift offered it for international competition. Then nothing happened for the next nineteen years, partly due to civil war in the USA, and partly due to international indifference. Meanwhile in England a new face had burst upon the yachting scene in the late 1860s. This was James Lloyd Ashbury, the son of John Ashbury, a self- made man who had built up from a two man wheelwright shop the largest railway manufacturing business in the UK, producing rolling stock, iron bridges, turn-tables and other railway equipment in his factory at Openshaw in Manchester employing over two thousand men.

  • Control and Competition: the Architecture of Boathouse Row
    Control and Competition: The Architecture of Boathouse Row WENTY-FIRST-CENTURY PHILADELPHIANS know Boathouse Row as the idiosyncratic collection of boathouses that dot the shoreline Tof the Schuylkill River (fig. 1). But the unique architectural character and definition of the row is no accident of history; rather, it is the result of one of the earliest attempts to exert municipal control over private structures, initiated in response to a confluence of cultural and his- toric trends sweeping through Philadelphia and parts of America in the late nineteenth century. This paper investigates how the architecture of Boathouse Row developed in three distinct phases: first, under city ordi- nances influenced by prominent individuals who oversaw the founding and growth of Fairmount Park; then, as an aesthetic competition developed between the boat clubs within the constraints determined by the city; and finally as municipal control over the design of the boathouses declined as the Fairmount Park Commission shifted its attention elsewhere and as prominent architects took the stage and a rise of architectural eclecticism led to a profusion of new styles. The boathouses are located in Fairmount Park, founded in 1855.
