Seven National Scholarships Awarded in 2009 2009 SEVEN NATIONAL SCHOLARSHIPS DEXTER C. JAMESON AWARDED IN 2009 NATIONAL SCHOLARSHIP Seven national scholarships in the amount of $3000 each were awarded to Chi Epsilon members for 2009. These were in the name of John A. Focht, Bro. B. Austin Barry, Arthur N. L. Chiu, Joseph L. Brandes, and Dexter C. Jameson, Jr. The funds for these scholarships were made possible by the generous contributions of members of Chi Epsilon. JOHN A.

TAU BETA PI AWARDS $468,000 IN 2009- 10 SCHOLARSHIPS Tau Beta Pi recently announced that they had awarded 234 scholarships of $2000 each for the 2009-10 academic year. This includes 32 scholarships awarded to senior civil engi- neering students, 11 of which were from universities with Chi Epsilon chapters. In comparison to our Chi Epsilon schol- arship program, we awarded seven national scholarships of $3000 each and ten district scholarships at $1500 each, total- ing $36,000. Tau Beta Pi is a large honor society with 234 chapters as compared to 133 chapters in Chi Epsilon. They do provide a larger target as a goal for our scholarship program. In addition to the large scholarship program, Tau Beta Pi has a large Fellows program for graduate study. For the 2009-10 year, they have selected 30 young engineering students from among 268 applicants for graduate fellowships. Of these, 17 will receive cash stipends of $10,000 each.

However, by carrying out localised research, it appears that the two might not be so closely linked as previously thought, with discrepancies in the distribution of regionally specific names and equivalent occupational descriptions. As a result, there seems to be a need to reconsider the connection between regional lexicons and corresponding name stocks, which may have been less closely related, at a period of non-hereditary by-naming, than current knowledge suggests. 1. Surnames and dialect It has been widely recognised that the regional distribution of certain by-names and surnames,1 from the medieval period up to the present day, can represent regional distinctions in Middle English (ME) dialect lexis and phonology.

Jones, Committee Chair Mary Beth Leigh, Committee Member Roger W. Ruess, Committee Member Diane Wagner, Chair Department of Biology and Wildlife Kinchal Doerner, Dean College of Natural Science and Mathematics Michael Castellini, Interim Dean of the Graduate School Abstract In stream biofilms, autotrophs and heterotrophs are responsible for the majority of in­ stream nutrient transformations. In boreal forest catchments, discontinuous permafrost can lead to variation in nutrient and energy resources, which can control competition for nutrients between autotrophs and heterotrophs within these biofilms. I was interested in determining what resources control nutrient utilization by autotrophs and heterotrophs in headwater streams in the boreal forest of interior Alaska. I hypothesized that the outcome of competition between autotrophs and heterotrophs for inorganic nutrients would be dependent on the availability of (i) organic carbon, (ii) light, or (iii) inorganic nutrients. To measure resource limitation and competition at both patch and reach scales, I deployed nutrient diffusing substrata and conducted nutrient uptake experiments in streams along a permafrost gradient at the Caribou-Poker Creeks Research Watershed in interior Alaska. At the patch scale, autotrophs were light and nutrient limited, whereas heterotrophs were carbon and nutrient limited, and at the reach scale, light had the largest influence on nutrient uptake.

I join you in thanking your professors, advisors and family and friends for their contributions to your success. This is a time for celebration, but also for reflection on your future. I am confident that the knowledge and experience you gained as a UF student will serve you well regardless of your career or how you choose to invest your life. The university has benefited from your active engagement and contributions to your classes, programs of study and your peers, and we are grateful for your time here.

PREFACE The compiling of this family history was undertaken with the object of preserving for future generations the results of nearly twenty years' gleanings in the field of genealogical research. The work has been done during the odd moments of a very busy life. It had its inception in the endeavor to learn when and from whence came the first of mv name to New Netherland, and then to connect with this parent branch that offshoot which, after the War of the Revolution, settled in Canada,* and of which I am a scion. It has been a fascinating work and full of pleasure; the measure of success which I obtained luring me on and on, encouraged as I was, also, by the assistance of the Reverend Roswell Randall Hoes, Chaplain in the United States Navy, and himself an able genealogist, who pointed out to me where to find rich harvests of data relating to the Dutch in America. In the military field I profited much from the experience of Dr. Charles E. Godfrey in his investigations of Colonial and Revolutionary military data, and I have sought to make my work a valuable book of reference to the family and others on this particular line.
