  • Memorial to Charles C. Doll 1898-1990 ROLFE STANLEY and BARRY DOOLAN Burlington, Vermont
    Memorial to Charles C. Doll 1898-1990 ROLFE STANLEY and BARRY DOOLAN Burlington, Vermont Charles G. Doll passed away on March 12,1990, thus end­ ing a long and productive career as State Geologist for Vermont and as a well-known professor at the University of Vermont. Born in Providence, Rhode Island, on Au­ gust 22,1898, he was educated at Brown University where he received a Ph.B. in 1924 and an M.A. in geology in 1926. Two major events occurred in the fall of 1927: Charles Doll joined the faculty of the University of Ver­ mont as an instructor, and a massive flood devastated much of Vermont. “Charlie” often joked about his early welcome to the Green Mountain State. He remained on the faculty of the University of Vermont until his retirement as Professor and Chair in 1964, an administrative responsibil­ ity that he assumed in 1946. During his tenure at the uni­ versity, the department grew to three members and offered an undergraduate major and a master of science program. From his first entry into Vermont, the varied topography and fascinating geology were a central love of his professional life. In 1930 and 1931 “Mr. Doll and Mr. Carleton,” both instructors at the university, were inspired by Professor Buchanan to complete the northern extension of the Long Trail in the Jay Peak region of the Green Mountains. In the following years Charlie worked for the Vermont Geological Survey, publishing many of his findings in the Biennial Reports. Chief among these was his work in the Vermont copper belt in Strafford and his discovery of Paleozoic fossils in eastern Vermont.

  • Ownership History of the Mount Washington Summit1
    STATE OF NEW HAMPSHIRE Inter-Department Communication DATE: July 23, 2018 FROM: K. Allen Brooks AT (OFFICE) Department of Justice Senior Assistant Attorney General Environmental Protection Bureau SUBJECT: Ownership of Mount Washington Summit TO: The Mount Washington Commission ____________________________________ Ownership History of the Mount Washington Summit1 The ownership history of the summit of Mount Washington is interwoven with that of Sargent’s Purchase, Thompson and Meserve’s Purchase, and numerous other early grants and conveyances in what is now Coos County. Throughout these areas, there has never been a shortage of controversy. Confusion over what is now called Sargent’s Purchase began as far back as 1786 when the Legislature appointed McMillan Bucknam to sell certain state lands. Bucknam conveyed land described as being southwest of Roger’s Location, Treadwell’s Location, and Wentworth’s 1 The following history draws extensively from several N.H. Supreme Court opinions (formerly called the Superior Court of Judicature of New Hampshire) and to a lesser extent from various deeds and third-party information, specifically – Wells v. Jackson Iron Mfg. Co., 44 N.H. 61 (1862); Wells v. Jackson Iron Mfg. Co., 47 N.H. 235 (1866); Wells v. Jackson Iron Mfg. Co., 48 N.H. 491 (1869); Wells v.

MARciN* THE SCENEt Long before remembered time, ice fields blanketed central India, discharging floes into a sea covering the Plains of Punjab. The Argentine Pampas lay frozen and still beneath a crush of ice. Ice sheets were carving their presence into the highest mountains of Hawaii and New Guinea. On the western land mass, ice gutted what was, in pre-glacial time, a stream valley near the northeastern shore. In this alien epoch, when woolly mammoth and caribou roamed the North American tundra, the ice began to melt. Receding glaciers left an inland lake where the primeval stream valley had been. For a time the waters of the lake reposed in bo- real calm, until, with the melting of the polar cap, the level of the great salt ocean rose to the level of the lake.

It is a relatively sparsely populated region compared to adjacent regions, and is characterized by hills and mountains, a mostly Ecoregions of New England forested land cover, nutrient-poor frigid and cryic soils (mostly Spodosols), and numerous high-gradient streams and glacial lakes. Forest vegetation is somewhat transitional between the boreal regions to the north in Canada and the broadleaf deciduous forests to the south. Typical forest types include northern hardwoods (maple-beech-birch), northern hardwoods/spruce, and northeastern spruce-fir forests. Recreation, tourism, and forestry are primary land uses. Farm-to-forest conversion began in the 19th century and continues today.
