  • Dr. Ulysses S. Washington, Jr
    Celebrating The Life & Legacy of Dr. Ulysses S. Washington, Jr. July 16, 1920 – October 25, 2018 orn in 1920 in Dillwyn, a small, central Virginia town in Buckingham County, Dr. Ulysses Samuel Washington, Jr. developed an early appreciation for education. Most of B his childhood centered on school - whether in a four-room schoolhouse during the week or in a church building on Sunday mornings. He credited the mentoring and modeling he received from an agricultural teacher for piquing his interest in pursuing agricultural education. When “Wash,” as he was affectionately called, was not walking five miles to and from school each day, he was helping his father on the family farm and sawmill. After graduating from Carter C. Woodson High School, Dr. Washington attended St. Paul’s Normal and Industrial College in Lawrenceville, VA and later received his bachelor’s degree in agricultural education from Virginia State College (now University) in Petersburg, VA in 1942. He fulfilled his World War II military obligation with the United States Navy from 1944-1946 as a landing craft motor machinist until he was honorably discharged. Dr. Washington later attended Penn State University and Rutgers University where he earned his master’s degree in 1949. Dr. Washington came to Delaware State University (then Delaware State College) in September 1949 and began a career that would span 43 illustrious years. It was there that he met and married Ruth Helen Washington, and was blessed with the births of their two children, Diane and “Ukee.” During his tenure at Delaware State, Dr. Washington not only held the position of associate professor but also served as assistant football coach and acting head football coach.

  • GEORGE WASHINGTON's MOUNT VERNON (Slide: Aerial View) When George Washington Died in 1799, His Mount Vernon Estate Was at Its Hi
    GEORGE WASHINGTON'S MOUNT VERNON (Slide: Aerial View) When George Washington died in 1799, his Mount Vernon estate was at its highest point of development. In the 45 years since he had become master of Mount Vernon, Washington had completely transformed the small plantation he had inherited from his older half brother, Lawrence. This aerial view shows the estate as it appears today, and we believe, as it appeared during the final years of General Washington's life. Mount Vernon's preservation is the achievement of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association of the Union, which has owned the estate since 1858. Over the years, the goal of the Association has been to restore Mount Vernon to its original condition and to present it to the public. (Slide: East Front) Today our visitors see Washington/s 500 acre "Mansion House Form," the formal pleasure grounds of the 8,000 acre plantation that existed in the 18th century. The Mansion House itself, seated on a high bluff with a commanding view of the Potomac River and the Maryland shoreline beyond,is the focal point in a village-like setting of outbuildings, formal gardens and grounds .. This neat and elegant estate was the creation of George Washington, who personally designed and laid it out. (Slide: Houdon Bust) Washington is of course best remembered for his services as ~ommonder-in-Chief and president, but at Mount Vernon we celebrate -2- the memory of the Virginia farmer and family man. There are many monuments to George Washington. The visitor to Mount Vernon can discover the complex and passionate man behind the austere, remote historical figure.

  • Mount Vernon Distillery Project: of Workers and Race
    kelly UW-L Journal of Undergraduate Research XIII (2010) Mount Vernon Distillery Project: Of Workers and Race Elizabeth Kelly Faculty Sponsors: Timothy McAndrews and David Anderson, Department of Sociology and Archaeology ABSTRACT The domestic artifacts of the Mount Vernon distillery site offer data on the lives of white workers. In comparing the domestic glass and ceramic artifacts of the distillery with comparable glass and ceramic data found at the slave site House for Families, the similarities and differences between the two groups can be seen. The artifact comparison may make it possible to determine if slave workers lived at the distillery along with the white workers. The artifact comparison showed that slaves and white workers were similar in being limited by their means. The existence of slave workers living at the distillery could not be determined at this time; however, potential areas for future analysis were presented. INTRODUCTION Historical archaeology is a discipline that has seen a shift in its focus over the years. The original interest of historical archaeology lay with the leaders of America. Archaeologists and historians studied and researched primarily the men who shaped and developed America. During the Civil Rights movement and other social movements of the 60's and 70's, historical archaeologists changed their focus. While there is still a strong interest in significant historical figures, there is a strong interest in historical archaeology concerning women, children, and slaves. This grouping had previously been neglected but was now the forefront of interest. Despite this focus on the less powerful of society, I have still found there to be a significant gap in research.
