  • An Early History of Simpson County, Mississippi by Bee King
    An Early History of Simpson County, Mississippi by Bee King Compiled by Frances B. Krechel AFFECTIONATELY DEDICATED TO: Mrs. L. H. Holyfield (Beulah Boggan) (Electronic version prepared by NP Computers for Mendenhall Public Library, Lu Ann Bailey Librarian) Due to her life-long (b. 1893) interest, and being a native Mississippian, Miss Beulah has gathered together many historical articles and books, and it is basically from this remarkable and vast collection that the enclosed material has been taken, her love of Mississippi history proved to be contagious. So it is with deep appreciation and a sincere “Thank You” for the special help and encouragement, that another chapter has been added to the extensive recording of the state’s heritage. Miss Beulah has also meticulously and lovingly chronicled the names and dates of her Boggan and related families and it is through this mutual family connection that the compiler became interested in the events concerning the early days. All of the stories have been selected from a series of articles written by the late Bee King, who was a well- known lawyer, historian and writer. The Simpson County News began running the series in their weekly newspaper in 1937 and continued until 1948. Mr. King’s writings are a graphic presentation of the life and times of early Simpson County. He interviewed the elderly citizens through out the area and uniquely recorded for posterity the experiences of the people in day to day living. The picture shows Mr. King in his office when he was Mayor of Mendenhall, the county seat of Simpson County.

  • Tennessee Reference Stream Morphology and Large Woody Debris Assessment
    Tennessee Reference Stream Morphology and Large Woody Debris Assessment Report and Guidebook Prepared for: Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation Prepared by: Jennings Environmental, LLC December 2017 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY This report includes reference stream morphology and large woody debris data collected throughout Tennessee in 2015-2017. Hydraulic geometry data are presented as regional curves for Ecoregions 66, 67, 68/69, 71, and 65/74 to support stream assessment and restoration planning. Morphology relationships describe bankfull channel dimensions, pattern, and profile measurements in relation to channel-forming discharge and watershed drainage area. Large woody debris (LWD) data collected at reference streams serve as an indicator of natural stream conditions in forested floodplains. These databases and relationships are valuable for assessing disturbed streams to evaluate degree of departure from equilibrium, selecting and planning restoration projects to improve natural stream functions, and monitoring changes in stream conditions in undisturbed and restored stream systems. These databases should be supplemented with additional information collected during site assessment and restoration planning to improve understanding of local stream conditions throughout Tennessee. The morphology data collection included 114 undisturbed streams ranging in width from 3 to 132 feet with watershed drainage areas ranging from 0.02 to 117 square miles. Wherever available, United States Geological Survey (USGS) gage station sites were surveyed to provide long-term hydrologic information close to the reference stream. Bankfull stage indicators at a USGS gage provided the opportunity to quantify the channel-forming discharge and exceedance probability of this flow event. For reference streams with no gages, natural equilibrium stream segments with clearly identifiable incipient-floodplain bankfull stage indicators were surveyed to determine morphology parameters.

The Appalachian Regional Commission (ARC) is a regional economic development agency that represents a partnership of federal, state, and local government. Established by an act of Congress in 1965, ARC is composed of the governors of the 13 Appalachian states and a federal co-chair, who is appointed by the president. ARC funds projects that address the four goals identified in the Commission's strategic plan: 1. Increase job opportunities and per capita income in Appalachia to reach parity with the nation. 2. Strengthen the capacity of the people of Appalachia to compete in the global economy. 3. Develop and improve Appalachia's infrastructure to make the Region economically competitive. 4. Build the Appalachian Development Highway System to reduce Appalachia's isolation. www.arc.gov The National Endowment for the Arts was established by Congress in 1965 as an independent agency of the federal government. To date, the NEA has awarded more than $4 billion to support artistic excellence, creativity, and innovation for the benefit of individuals and communities. The NEA extends its work through partnerships with state arts agencies, local leaders, other federal agencies, and the philanthropic sector.

  • Wickliffe Mounds History
    One of the early published articles about the Wickliffe Mounds excavation was entitled: KENTUCKY'S "ANCIENT BURIED CITY" by T. M. N. Lewis and appeared in the Wisconsin Archeologist Volume 13 No. 2 pages 25-31 (1934). Lewis, a World War I Navy veteran and Princeton graduate, had witnessed the Wickliffe excavation in progress and his job was to restore most of the broken pottery found in the mounds [P8]. The excerpt in the following paragraphs from Lewis’s article gives his first hand insight into what was revealed in the Temple Mound “A” excavation. The written publicity, flier and brochure, interpreting the new Wickliffe excavations were jointly authored by Thomas M. N. Lewis and Fain W. King. Both Lewis, in the Wisconsin Archeologist, and King, in the Tenn. Academy of Science (IX No1. 8-17), separately authored journal articles published in 1934 about the Wickliffe excavations. Thomas McDowell Nelson Lewis in late 1933 was hired by William S. Webb to be the field supervisor of the archaeological reservoir, Norris Basin projects, for the Tennessee Valley Authority in Tennessee, see Grit-Tempered: Early Women Archaeologists in the Southeastern United States (2001) by Nancy Marie White (Ed.), Lynne P. Sullivan (Ed.), Rochelle A. Marrinan (Ed.). When that field work was completed Lewis was hired (September 1934) as Associate Professor in archaeology at the University of Tennessee charged with supervising the archaeological work in that state until his retirement in 1961. The few words in brackets and the photo numbers were added by the author. The introduction of the Wickliffe site and the detailed description of the Temple Mound remain in Lewis’s own words and give insight into how the direct historical approach, using ethno historical accounts, were used in the archaeological interpretations of Wickliffe.

And I worked two years in Boston, Massachusetts. And I worked 18 months in Texas. But other than that I've been here as a citizen of this area. And, I have been employed here at the Coahoma Community College for most of my adult life. I am now 73 years old and retired. 3 Atandi Anyona: How did you end up in the teaching profession here? Charles Reid: After finishing college and getting into the military I just decided I just wanted to come back and give something back to my community.
