  • Downton Abbey and the Northwest Ordinance
    Downton Abbey and the Northwest Ordinance Viewers of the popular British series Downton Abbey may recall the initial episode that set in motion all the frantic efforts to keep the estate in the family and have a suitable marriage for the aloof but beautiful Mary Crawley. The lovely Mary was pledged to marry her cousin Patrick but all the plans for this arranged nuptial were drowned along with the Titanic upon which Patrick had been aboard. Not only were Mary’s marital hopes dashed, but the future of Downton Abbey suddenly became uncertain since the Laws of Primogeniture and Entail complicated inheritance details of property owning families that had no sons. Here’s a quick review of these laws: Primogeniture ensured that the eldest son in a family inherited the largest portion of his father’s property upon the father’s death. The practice of entail, guaranteeing that a landed estate remain in the hands of only one male heir, was frequently practiced in conjunction with primogeniture. When there was no son to inherit the property, it was to go to the closest male relative. These laws existed in Europe for many years and was a sure recruitment tool for the church and the military as a place for those younger sons. Since Lord Grantham was blessed with three daughters and no male heirs, the title and the property would no longer remain in the hands of the immediate family. Conveniently for the plot, the distant cousin, handsome Matthew Crawley, was brought in and, after the usual ups and downs of soap operas, fell in love and married Mary.

    Dedication of Wayne-Logstown Monument 239 Dedication of the Wayne-Logstown Monument at Legionville, Pa. The monument, erected by the Pennsylvania Historical Commission to mark the site of the ancient Indian village of Logstown and the army cantonment where during the win- ter of 1792-3 Gen. Anthony Wayne drilled his famous "Le- gion," was dedicated on Saturday afternoon, June 22nd, 1918. The ceremony took place in the meadow beside the memorial on the Lincoln Highway several hundred yards north of Legionville Station on the Pittsburgh Fort Wayne and Chicago Railroad. The sky was overcast throughout the day and a chilly rain driven by a raw wind swept across the plateau where about 100 devoted patriots gathered at the roadside to honor the memory of American pioneers whose deeds had made this ground historic. But the rain did not interrupt the proceedings nor dampen the ardor of the spec- tators, and despite the inclement weather the program was carried out as originally planned. The monument has been placed on the northeast corner of the ground occupied by Wayne's army cantonment. It is of rough-hewn granite about eight feet high and contains two keystone-shaped bronze tablets-one bearing an in- scription telling of the location of Wayne's camp and the other sets forth briefly the story of the Indian settlement at Logstown. The site of the ancient village where Conrad Weiser, George Washington and other early travelers in this region held their conferences with the red men was sev- eral hundred yards south of the location of the monument.

On April 30, 1803 France and the United States signed the Louisiana Purchase Treaty, causing the Louisiana Territory to transfer from French to United States control for the price of fifteen million dollars.1 The territorial acquisition was agreed upon by Napoleon Bonaparte, First Consul of the Republic of France, and Robert R. Livingston and James Monroe, both of whom were acting on behalf of the United States. Monroe and Livingston only negotiated for New Orleans and the mouth of the Mississippi, but Napoleon in regard to the territory said “I renounce Louisiana.

Janicki aster model maker Andrew S. Janicki lives in Georgetown, Pennsylvania, and is a member of the International Guild of Miniature Artisans. Although his interest in Mmodel making goes back as long as he can remember, most of his model building skills were perfected on a large train display in his parents’ basement. In his adult years, he served in the U. S. Air Force and worked as a draftsman and industrial model builder for an engineering firm. Always a lover of history and historic places, Janicki has visited every state in the Union as well as 15 foreign countries. For the past several years he has been a re-enactor with the Legion of the United States, which, under the leadership Gen. “Mad” Anthony Wayne, camped at Legionville, now in Baden, before the “Battle of Fallen Timbers” (see page 2 of this newsletter). Janicki is pictured at right in a Legionnaire’s uniform; his model of Legionville will be on display in Sewickley Valley Historical Society headquarters. In 2000 and 2003, Mr. Janicki helped Beaver County put together the program to welcome the Eastern Legacy of the Lewis & Clark Journey. In May 2004, he participated in the Discovery Corps II Expedition from Wood River, Illinois, to Camp Ike Skelton National Guard Training Center in Missouri, portraying Pennsylvania native Private Patrick Gass, the member of the Corps of Discovery who outlived all the others.

  • Yellowstone: an Overview No Matter How Many Times One May Visit Yellowstone National Park, the Scenery of This Place Is Always New and Different
    Yellowstone: An Overview No matter how many times one may visit Yellowstone National Park, the scenery of this place is always new and different. My last photo program of Yellowstone was in 1998. That program can be found on acuri.net ‐ USA ‐ Wyoming (see in sources). This photo program series was taken between August and September 2019. There are five entrances to the park. The only two entrances that are open year‐round are North and Northeast. The other entrances are open to over‐the‐snow vehicles. They are closed to wheeled vehicles from November through mid‐April. Fees into the park are based on various categories. It covers 3,472 square miles and was established on March 1, 1872. Ninety‐six percent of the park is in Wyoming, three percent in Montana and one percent in Idaho. This photo program series on Yellowstone National Park includes nine subject titles. They are Artist Point, Canyon Visitor Education Center, Lamar Valley, Lake Hotel, Mammoth Hot Springs, Midway Geyser Basin, Norris Geyser Basin and Old Faithful. How Yellowstone got its name: "The park is located at the headwaters of the Yellowstone River, from which it takes its name. In the eighteenth century, French Trappers named the river "Roche Jaune," which is probably a translation of the Minnetaree name "Mi tsi a‐da‐zi" (Rock Yellow River). Later, American trappers rendered the French name in English as "Yellow Stone." Although it is commonly believed that the river was named for the yellow rocks seen in the Grand Canyon of the Yellowstone, the Native American name source is not clear." <nps.gov> Famous names and topics to further your learning more about Yellowstone are: "Tribal oral histories indicate more extensive use during the Little Ice Age.

  • Reader's Guide to the Mountain Men of the American West
    Reader©s Guide to the Mountain Men of the American West Antoine Clement, by Alfred Jacob Miller Compiled by Stuart Wier October 25, 2010 This is a guide to the best books about the mountain men of the American west which I know about. Anyone can find a book here to suit them: casual readers, students, enthusiasts, reenactors, and historians. I include a few less distinguished books, too, when they are the only thing about a topic. For some fifteen years -- roughly speaking, 1823 to 1838 and beyond -- the western U.S. was the domain of the mountain men, fur trappers who spent years traveling and living in the wilderness. Long before wagon trains, settlers, gold rushes, cavalry, Indian wars, cowboys, wild west towns, or railroads, mountain men were the first from the U.S. to see the Rocky Mountains and the lands from the plains to the Pacific. Their life was highly free and adventuresome, and often dangerous and short, lived in a shining wilderness. Where to begin? Many books, many choices. For a readable and short introduction try Give Your Heart to the Hawks by Winfred Blevins. For detailed histories try A Life Wild and Perilous by Robert M. Utley or the classic history Across the Wide Missouri by Bernard DeVoto. Or try some of the best biographies, such as Westering Man The Life of Joseph Walker by Bil Gilbert and Jedediah Smith and the Opening of the West by Dale L. Morgan. For adventures or "camp fire tales" try the personal journals and narratives written by some of the mountain men themselves.
