  • Anthracite and the Irish: Extricating the Irish Immigrant Mining Community from the Molly Maguire Myth, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, 1850-1879
    ABSTRACT Title of Thesis: Anthracite and the Irish: Extricating the Irish Immigrant Mining Community from the Molly Maguire Myth, Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania, 1850-1879 William Francis Byron, Master of Arts, 1996 Thesis directed by: Peter H. Argersinger, Professor, History The Molly Maguires were a reputed secret society of Irish immigrant mine workers who allegedly terrorized the anthracite coal fields of Pennsylvania from the Civil War until twenty men convicted as Molly Maguires were hanged in the late 1870s. The sensational nature of the Molly trials and executions has spawned a myth concerning the Molly Maguires which has clouded historical understanding of the episode. One of the unfortunate results of the Molly Maguire myth is that the legacy of the nineteenth-century anthracite Irish mining community has been inextricably and wrongly tied to the legacy of the alleged criminal activities of the Molly Maguires. The thesis seeks to draw a portrait of the Irish mining community of one anthracite county, Schuylkill, with as much depth as possible. The thesis first details Irish demographics and culture within Schuylkill County and proceeds to follow the Irish community through the years of the first regional mine workers' union to the destruction of UMBC the union as a consequence of the bitter ''Long Strike" of 1875 . The thesis demonstrates that negative expectations of the Irish conditioned negative perceptions by Schuylkill County's native population. The mass executions of the alleged Molly Maguires were only possible because of the deep anti-Irish sentiment that existed in Schuylkill among the non Irish, from Anglo-Protestant mine bosses to the large Welsh immigrant mining community.

  • ^Morton Tmctmichael's North ^American
    ^Morton tMctMichael's North ^American N November, 1846, Morton McMichael began a connection with the Philadelphia 'North American which lasted for more than I three decades. In the course of time this journal came to be known as "McMichaePs North ^American" much in the same fashion as its contemporaries referred to "Greeley's Tribune" McMichael's fame as a journalist was never as great as that of Greeley or James Gordon Bennett in New York, Joseph Gales in Washington, Samuel Bowles in Springfield, or even his fellow Philadelphians, George W. Childs, William Swain, and A. K. McClure. Nevertheless, a fellow editor described him as "the Master of Philadelphia journalism," and an authoritative chronicler of Philadelphia history deemed him "one of the ablest and most useful journalists which the city has pro- duced."1 It was McMichaePs fate to become one of what Allan Nevins has called "secondary and tertiary personages . whose labors were the main elements of progress." His statue, which adorns a hilltop near the entrance to Philadelphia's Fairmount Park with the in- scription, "Morton McMichael, A Beloved Citizen of Philadelphia," has failed to rescue him from the relative historical obscurity to which the passage of time has relegated him. He was one of those individuals who busied himself with behind-the-scenes activity which looked toward furthering the commercial and industrial interests of his adopted city and state,2 and as the publisher of an important commercial journal in one of the nation's leading marts, he occupied a vitally strategic post in the innermost councils of those shaping public policies.
