Benchley, Mr. John C. Phillips, Dr. Brian R. Rucker, and Dr. John J. Clune. Dr. Benchley, thank you for supporting me through the years and for being a role model. John Phillips, Arcadia Mill would not be what it is today without your dedication and hard work. I have learned so much from you and continue to do so. Dr. Rucker, thank you for your dedication to understanding Arcadia’s historical significance. My research would not be possible without your exhaustive efforts. Dr. Clune, thank you for providing your time and extensive knowledge of local history. In addition to my committee members, several people have made impacts on my life and my research. Norma Harris, I have so many fond memories and I am truly grateful for your friendship. I’d like to acknowledge and thank Jan Lloyd, Norine Carroll, and Jennifer Melcher for always making themselves available when I needed help. A very big thank you goes to Karen Mims and Cindi Jackson for always taking care of me. I’d like to thank the descendants of E. E. Simpson for their interest and involvement in Arcadia Mill. In particular, thank you to Chuck Simpson for our sporadic Arcadia chats that undoubtedly re-motivated me when I was running out of thesis steam. I’d like to thank the staff of West Florida Historic Preservation, Inc. and Arcadia Mill for giving me a professional home. I am thankful for Rob Overton’s support not only as a boss, but as someone that encouraged and supported my thesis work. Special thanks go to the Arcadia Mill staff, mainly for working hard and caring about Arcadia like I do, but also for putting up with me during my bad moods and thesis crises. Thank you to all the crew members of the Arcadia Mill Village field schools over the years and a special thank you to Lee McKenzie for braving the wilderness in 1988 to provide the basis of my research. iv Thanks to all the wonderful friends I have made throughout my journey as a graduate student especially Irina and Scott Sorset, April Holmes, Cindy Sommerkamp, Mary Furlong, Amanda Roberts-Thompson, Larry James, Roc Jarvis, Brian Mabelitini, and Sheyna Marcey. Thank you to Deb Mullins for teaching me the art of the “thesis sweatshop.” Della Scott-Ireton, thank you for your constant guidance and for being a friend and golf partner. Thank you to Greg and Amy Cook for the countless holiday parties and good friendship. Special thanks go to Bill Lees and Monica Beck for their endless friendship and for embracing me as a part of their family. I’d especially like to thank Roy Oberto for not only being my steadfast coworker, but also an amazingly supportive (and tolerant) friend. Josey Walker, words can’t describe how happy I am that you came back into my life and I look forward to what the future holds. I want to recognize and extend a very special thanks to my family who has continually supported my never-ending tenure as a college student. I’d like to dedicate this thesis to my late grandmother, Katherine Sams, for always encouraging and supporting higher education. Throughout my time as a graduate student, I have been very fortunate to encounter amazing people and opportunities, and I very much appreciate my time at UWF. v TABLE OF CONTENTS ACKNOWLEDGMENTS ............................................................................................................. iv LIST OF TABLES ....................................................................................................................... viii LIST OF FIGURES ....................................................................................................................... ix ABSTRACT ................................................................................................................................... xi CHAPTER I.

Chapelle Curator of Transportation SMITHSONIAN INSTITUTION, WASHINGTON, D.C. 1964 — Publications of the United States National Aiuseum The scholarly and scientific publications of the United States National Museum include two series, Proceedings of the United States National Museum and United States National Museum Bulletin. In these series the Museum publishes original articles and monographs dealing with the collections and work of its constituent museums—The Museum of Natural History and the Museum of History and Technology setting forth newly acquired facts in the fields of Anthropology, Biology, History, Geology, and Technology. Copies of each publication are distributed to libraries, to cultural and scientific organizations, and to specialists and others interested in the different subjects. The Proceedings, begun in 1878, are intended for the publication, in separate form, of shorter papers from the Museum of Natural History. These are gathered in volumes, octavo in size, with the publication date of each paper recorded in the table of contents of the volume. In the Bulletin series, the first of which was issued in 1875, appear longer, separate publications consisting of monographs (occasionally in several parts) and volumes in which are collected works on related subjects. Bulletins are either octavo or quarto in size, depending on the needs of the presentation. Since 1902 papers relating to the botanical collections of the Museum of Natural History have been published in the Bulletin series under the heading Contributions Jrom the United States National Herbarium, and since 1959, in Bulletins titled "Contributions from the Museum of History and Technology," have been gathered shorter papers relating to the collections and research of that Museum.

PRIZER -- Pining for Turpentine: Critical Nostalgia, Memory, and Commemorative Expression in the Wake of Industrial Decline (Under the direction of Patricia E. Sawin) The late twentieth-century decline of the turpentine industry in south Georgia and north Florida has inspired efforts on the part of former workers to memorialize their industry. Because the production of turpentine involved the tapping of pine trees for the extraction of resin or crude gum, the industry made a significant and conspicuous impact on the landscape.
