  • Mccorkle PLACE
    CHAPTER EIGHT: McCORKLE PLACE McCorkle Place is said to be the most densely memorialized piece of real estate in North Carolina.501 On the University’s symbolic front lawn, there are almost a dozen monuments and memorials fundamental to the University’s lore and traditions, but only two monuments within the space have determined the role of McCorkle Place as a space for racial justice movements.502 The Unsung Founders Memorial and the University’s Confederate Monument were erected on the oldest quad of the campus almost a century apart for dramatically different memorial purposes. The former honors the enslaved and freed Black persons who “helped build” the University, while the latter commemorated, until its toppling in August 2018, “the sons of the University who entered the war of 1861-65.”503 Separated by only a few dozen yards, the physical distinctions between the two monuments were, before the Confederate Monument was toppled, quite striking.

    ABSTRACT HARRIS, GEOFFREY SHIELDS. Toward a New Whig Interpretation of History: Common Schools in Burke County, North Carolina, from 1853 to 1861. (Under the direction of Dr. James Crisp.) This thesis will examine both the history and historiography of the common school movement in western North Carolina in the last decades of the antebellum period. In particular, it will focus on common schools in Burke County during the years of school board chairman James Avery’s tenure (1853-1861). The attendance records James Avery kept during his tenure as chairman of the county board of common schools (now located in his personal papers at the Southern Historical Collection) provide a wealth of previously unexamined data relating to the operation of common schools at the county level. A detailed examination of these records yields new insights into common schools in antebellum North Carolina. These insights have both specific and general application. First, and most specifically, an analysis of Avery’s records fills a historical gap in our understanding of common schools in Burke County (a county whose official antebellum records on education have largely been destroyed). Second, and more generally, it provides a reliable measure of popular support for and participation in an institution that historians have alternately described as a tool of elite social control and an expression of yeoman democracy. By shifting the focus of the common school narrative from the state superintendent’s office to the county level, this study challenges several entrenched features of North Carolina common school historiography and provides a new window into the rhetoric and reality of class and sectional identity in antebellum North Carolina.

    Governors’ Papers Alfred M. Scales Page One GOVERNOR ALFRED M. SCALES, n.d., 1885-1889 Arrangement: By record series, then chronological Reprocessed by: James Mark Valsame Date: July 12, 2004 Alfred Moore Scales (November 26, 1827-February 9, 1892), lawyer, legislator, congressman, soldier, governor, and banker, was born in Reidsville, Rockingham County. His parents were Robert H. Scales and Jane W. Bethel Scales. His grandfather Nathaniel Scales was a longtime representative to the North Carolina House of Commons from Rockingham County. Scales attended the Caldwell Institute, a preparatory school for boys in Greensboro. In 1845 he entered the University of North Carolina, where he studied law but never completed work for a degree. The university awarded him an honorary LL.D in 1889. After leaving school Scales read law under Judge William H. Battle, and was admitted to the bar in 1852. In the same year he was solicitor for Rockingham County. After serving in the House of Commons in 1852 and 1856-57, Scales, a Democrat, was elected to the Thirty-fifth Congress (March 4, 1857- March 3, 1859). Following this term in office, Scales represented North Carolina as a presidential elector on the Democratic ticket of John C. Breckinridge and Joseph Lane. With the secession of North Carolina from the Union on May 20, 1861, Scales volunteered for Confederate military service. Enlisting as a private in Company H (the Rockingham Guards), Thirteenth Regiment of the North Carolina State Troops on April 30, 1861, he was elected captain of the company on the same date. On October 12, 1861 he was promoted to colonel of the Thirteenth Regiment, succeeding fellow North Carolinian William Dorsey Pender of Edgecombe County.
