  • JAMES LOGAN the Political Career of a Colonial Scholar
    JAMES LOGAN The Political Career of a Colonial Scholar By E. GORDON ALDERFER* A CROSS Sixth Street facing the shaded lawn of Independence Square in Philadelphia, on the plot now hidden by the pomp- ous facade of The Curtis Publishing Company, once stood a curious little building that could with some justice lay claim to being the birthplace of the classic spirit of early America. Just as the State House across the way symbolizes the birth of independ- ence and revolutionary idealism, the first public home of the Loganian Library could represent (were it still standing) the balanced, serene, inquiring type of mind so largely responsible for nurturing the civilization of the colonies. The Loganian, the first free public library in America outside of Boston and by some odds the greatest collection for public use in the colonial era, was the creation of James Logan, occasionally reputed to have been the most learned man in the colonies during the first half of the eighteenth century. Logan journeyed to Amer- ica with William Penn in 1699 as Penn's secretary, and became in effect the resident head of the province. Two years later, when Penn left his province never to return, Logan was commissioned Secretary of the Province and Commissioner of Property. He was soon installed as Clerk of the Provincial Council and became its most influential member in spite of his youthfulness. Even- tually, in 1731, Logan became Chief Justice of Pennsylvania, and, five years later, as President of the Provincial Council, he assumed *Dr. E.

  • The Battles of Germantown: Public History and Preservation in America’S Most Historic Neighborhood During the Twentieth Century
    The Battles of Germantown: Public History and Preservation in America’s Most Historic Neighborhood During the Twentieth Century Dissertation Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By David W. Young Graduate Program in History The Ohio State University 2009 Dissertation Committee: Steven Conn, Advisor Saul Cornell David Steigerwald Copyright by David W. Young 2009 Abstract This dissertation examines how public history and historic preservation have changed during the twentieth century by examining the Germantown neighborhood of Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Founded in 1683, Germantown is one of America’s most historic neighborhoods, with resonant landmarks related to the nation’s political, military, industrial, and cultural history. Efforts to preserve the historic sites of the neighborhood have resulted in the presence of fourteen historic sites and house museums, including sites owned by the National Park Service, the National Trust for Historic Preservation, and the City of Philadelphia. Germantown is also a neighborhood where many of the ills that came to beset many American cities in the twentieth century are easy to spot. The 2000 census showed that one quarter of its citizens live at or below the poverty line. Germantown High School recently made national headlines when students there attacked a popular teacher, causing severe injuries. Many businesses and landmark buildings now stand shuttered in community that no longer can draw on the manufacturing or retail economy it once did. Germantown’s twentieth century has seen remarkably creative approaches to contemporary problems using historic preservation at their core.

  • The ^Penn Collection
    The ^Penn Collection A young man, William Penn fell heir to the papers of his distinguished father, Admiral Sir William Penn. This collec- A tion, the foundation of the family archives, Penn carefully preserved. To it he added records of his own, which, with the passage of time, constituted a large accumulation. Just before his second visit to his colony, Penn sought to put the most pertinent of his American papers in order. James Logan, his new secretary, and Mark Swanner, a clerk, assisted in the prepara- tion of an index entitled "An Alphabetical Catalogue of Pennsylvania Letters, Papers and Affairs, 1699." Opposite a letter and a number in this index was entered the identifying endorsement docketed on the original manuscript, and, to correspond with this entry, the letter and number in the index was added to the endorsement on the origi- nal document. When completed, the index filled a volume of about one hundred pages.1 Although this effort showed order and neatness, William Penn's papers were carelessly kept in the years that followed. The Penn family made a number of moves; Penn was incapacitated and died after a long illness; from time to time, business agents pawed through the collection. Very likely, many manuscripts were taken away for special purposes and never returned. During this period, the papers were in the custody of Penn's wife; after her death in 1726, they passed to her eldest son, John Penn, the principal proprietor of Pennsylvania. In Philadelphia, there was another collection of Penn deeds, real estate maps, political papers, and correspondence.

  • “Jogging Along with and Without James Logan: Early Plant Science in Philadelphia”
    1 Friday, 19 September 2014, 1:30–3:00 p.m.: Panel II: “Leaves” “Jogging Along With and Without James Logan: Early Plant Science in Philadelphia” Joel T. Fry, Bartram's Garden Presented at the ― James Logan and the Networks of Atlantic Culture and Politics, 1699-1751 conference Philadelphia, PA, 18-20 September 2014 Please do not cite, quote, or circulate without written permission from the author These days, John Bartram (1699-1777) and James Logan (1674-1751) are routinely recognized as significant figures in early American science, and particularly botanic science, even if exactly what they accomplished is not so well known. Logan has been described by Brooke Hindle as “undoubtedly the most distinguished scientist in the area” and “It was in botany that James Logan made his greatest contribution to science.” 1 Raymond Stearns echoed, “Logan’s greatest contribution to science was in botany.”2 John Bartram has been repeatedly crowned as the “greatest natural botanist in the world” by Linnaeus no less, since the early 19th century, although tracing the source for that quote and claim can prove difficult.3 Certainly Logan was a great thinker and scholar, along with his significant political and social career in early Pennsylvania. Was Logan a significant botanist—maybe not? John Bartram too may not have been “the greatest natural botanist in the world,” but he was very definitely a unique genius in his own right, and almost certainly by 1750 Bartram was the best informed scientist in the Anglo-American world on the plants of eastern North America. There was a short period of active scientific collaboration in botany between Bartram and Logan, which lasted at most through the years 1736 to 1738.

  • Lancaster County: Elizabethtown Lancaster County Pennsylvania Contains the Most Concentrated Record of Native American Habitation in All of Pennsylvania
    Lancaster County: Elizabethtown Lancaster County Pennsylvania contains the most concentrated record of Native American habitation in all of Pennsylvania. Every river valley; every tributary of the Swatara, Conoy, Chickies, Conestoga, Pequea, and Octorara Creeks has evidence of human habitation prior to European contact. These tributaries empty into the Susquehanna River. Along these creeks and streams there has been continuous human settlement, flourishing agriculture, and complex trade routes expanding throughout the continent. Two tributaries run through the Elizabethtown area: The Conoy Creek and the Conewago Creek (east) both have made this location along the Susquehanna River strategic for human habitation. Two waterways converge creating Conoy Creek, named Conejoholo (Anglicized Conoy) by the Piscataway Nation (referred to as Conoy Indians) the headwaters for the first begin at a spring on the present farm of Kenneth Myer and the second waterway, Negly Run, starts at a spring on the former Leonard Negly farm. The Conewago Creek, named by the Lenape Indians means “at the rapids.” This tributary begins at Mount Gretna Heights in Lebanon County and enters the Susquehanna River at Conewago Falls across from Conewago Creek (west) which begins in Caledonia State Park in Adams County. The creek enters the Susquehanna River at York Haven in York County. Human settlement between the Conoy and Conewago Creeks along the Susquehanna River established the foundation for Elizabethtown. Measuring four hundred and sixty-five miles, the Susquehanna is the longest river on the east coast flowing from New York and Pennsylvania through Maryland into Chesapeake Bay. In 1534 French King Francis, I colonized North America establishing New France with Jacques Cartier as Viceroy in Quebec.

  • When We Were Young: the American Philosophical Society in the 18Th Century1
    When We Were Young: The American Philosophical Society in the 18th Century1 GARY B. NASH Distinguished Research Professor University of California, Los Angeles n 2018 the American Philosophical Society celebrated its 275th anniversary, though in truth, 1743 is a shadowy date. Some think Ithe APS began in 1727, when Benjamin Franklin, at age 21—having resided in Philadelphia for less than two years since he first arrived in late 1723—convened his famous Junto of leather apron men (Figure 1). Drawing up rules for this private self-improvement group, 12 in number and limited to that size, he tasked “every Member in his Turn” to produce “one or more Queries . to be discuss’d by the Company.’’2 Among the founding group, four were from Samuel Keimer’s print shop (Franklin, Hugh Meredith, Stephen Potts, and George Webb) while the others were shoemakers (John Jones and William Parsons); a surveyor (Nicholas Scull); a scrivener (Joseph Breitnall); a carpenter (William Coleman); an ironmaker (Robert Grace); a glass maker (Thomas Godfrey); and a cabinet maker (William Mangrudge). It was a noble start, indeed an astounding venture, ushered into the world by such a youth striving to implant himself in a young river port, where Quaker merchants and landowners of growing wealth held sway.3 The APS website today claims our Society as an “offshoot” of 1 Read 26 April 2018. My thanks to the anonymous reviewers for their comments and suggestions for this paper. 2 The editors of the comprehensive edition of the Papers of Benjamin Franklin aver that Franklin had been influenced by Boston’s venerable Cotton Mather’s Essays to Do Good (1710), which proposed voluntary groups to encourage morality and religion.

  • Courts of Pennsylvania in the Eighteenth Century Prior to the Revolution
    THE COURTS OF PENNSYLVANIA IN THE EIGHTEENTH CENTURY PRIOR TO THE REVOLUTION. In 1701 William Penn was called back to England to defend his proprietorship. Before his departure a general revision of the earlier legislation was undertaken at the sessions of the assembly held at New Castle in 1700 a td at Philadelphia in 1701. The acts there passed, one lhun- dred and fourteen in number, seem, in a sense, to have -been regarded as, supplying the previous legislation and were passed with the expectation of being presented to the privy council for approval, as required by the charter. In fact, when the board of trade inquired of Penn, on his return, as to whether the laws received from him were a complete body of all the laws of the province, he replied that he believed they were the present body of laws, and it will be noticed that the digests of the eighteenth century begin their compilations with the.Acts of 17oo.1 Among these acts was one of October 28, 1701, entitled "An Act for Establishing Courts of Judicature in this Prov- ince and Counties Annexed." 2 Its origin was as follows: Edward Shippen, for the two previous years chief justice of the provincial court, and John Guest, the then chief justice, both members of the council, brought into the assembly on October 7th, a bill for establishing the courts, which was "unanimously rejected." Some few days after, David Lloyd, who was not then a member of either council 6r house, proposed a bill which was voted to be adopted with amendments, and Richard Hallowell and Isaac Norris were appointed a committee to draw up the bill, with the amendments.

  • The Accompanying Letter from James Logan To
    The accompanying letter from James Logan to William Penn is among a collection of valuable manu­ scripts recently presented to Haverford College by the Misses Howland, of Wifrnington, Delaware, themselves descended from the writer.1 James Logan, the famous Secretary for William Penn in Pennsylvania (b. Oct. 2Oth, 1674 ; d. Oct. 3ist, 1751), the writer, refers to the many privateers and pirates then infesting Delaware Bay and the coasts of New Jersey and Maryland. He alludes in strong terms to the perfidy of Philip Ford and his family, who, as agent for Penn, had defrauded him of so much of his income. Edward Shippen, who is named, was the Mayor of Philadelphia, whose daughter married Thomas Story, and died after a short married life without having accompanied him to England. Correspondence shows that James Logan was also a suitor for her hand at one time, but the slight coolness that fell between the two Quaker rivals did not last long, and James Logan married Sarah Read. " D.LI." is David Lloyd, described as the " Quaker Boss,"2 in the politics of Pennsylvania. He was a violent opponent of the government, and a demagogue in plain clothes. It will be noticed that James Logan is in favour of William Penn's resigning the government to the Crown. This was a measure not carried out for some years, and in fact only about to be accomplished at the time of the first paralytic stroke of the Founder in 1712. Logan's conclusion, " that a due administration of Government (especially in a time of war) under an English Constitution, is irreconcileable with our [Quaker] principles," is an 1 These papers are to be called, in memory of their mother, " The Gulielma M.
