Tise (1975–81), William S. Price Jr. (1981–95), and Jeffrey J. Crow (1995–2012). Over the years they had collaborated on nu- merous conferences and symposiums charting North Carolina’s vast history. In 1979 Crow and Tise coedited essays from one of those conferences titled Writing North Carolina History (University of North Carolina Press). That book provided the first comprehensive view of North Carolina’s historical literature. In the intervening years, however, the growth and expansion of works on the state’s history have gone far beyond the benchmark established in 1979. The three colleagues believed it was time for a new assessment that reflected the diverse studies appearing annually in books, journals, and in- creasingly on the Internet. One symposium could not encompass the broad new historical litera- ture that has appeared since the 1970s. The three collaborators determined to hold four conferences across the state to attract as many participants as possible. With a small planning grant from the North Carolina Humanities Council, the three collaborators invited six other scholars of North Carolina history to meet in the fall of 2010 and to help identify principal themes and subjects for consideration. The historical community in North Carolina and across the nation re- sponded enthusiastically to the plans for the conferences. Many historians living and working outside the state had used North Carolina’s extraordi- nary research facilities to research and write books, articles, and essays that focused on North Carolina’s experience as the locus for their explorations. Despite limited budgets, six state universities stepped forward to host and underwrite the conferences. The inaugural conference, titled “The First North Carolina,” took place at East Carolina University in February 2012. The second conference, titled “The Old North State,” was held on the cam- puses of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and North Caro- lina Central University in October 2012. The University of North Carolina at Asheville and Western Carolina University jointly hosted the third confer- ence, titled “The Cultural Roots of North Carolina,” which met in Asheville in November 2012. The fourth and final conference, “The Tar Heel State,” re- ix ceived a warm welcome from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro in February– March 2013. In the end, forty- five scholars made resentationsp at the four conferences. In addition, the Historical Society of North Carolina, the North Carolina Literary and Historical Association, and the then Office of Archives and History in the North Carolina Department of Cultural Re- sources provided critical financial and logistical support for the conferences. From the beginning the three organizers planned to produce a book that would grow out of the numerous presentations. But the organizers were also determined that the eventual book would in no way have the characteristics of published proceedings. Rather, they hoped to identify topics and themes that emerged from conference deliberations that might become components of a new narrative of North Carolina’s history. Fortunately the conferences were filled with persuasive presentations and lively discussions, proving that the North Carolina story was ripe for a thorough retelling. Narrowing the many stimulating ideas that the conferences produced and organizing them into a manageable set of essays proved challenging. All who attended the conferences recognized that the vibrant scholarship of the past four decades offered an opportunity to rethink North Carolina history, to develop new themes and tropes, to depart from past verities, and to chart an outline for a new narrative history.

  • Beacons of the Coast
    National Seashore National Park Service Cape Lookout U.S. Department of the Inerior Beacons of the Coast Over a century ago, mariners travelling along the Atlantic coast encountered dangerous shoals and treacherous storms. Their guides were the beacons of light produced by lighthouses which helped mariners navigate the perilous coastline. For mariners traveling along the North Carolina coast, seven lighthouse beacons were constructed to guide them through an area known as the “Graveyard of the Atlantic.” Hundreds of shipwrecks occurred due to the dangers of this area. Today, the ships traveling the coast use modern tools such as radar and sonar. The beacons continue to operate, standing as a reminder of the hardships encountered by our ancestors to help settle the country. These seven lighthouses found on the North Carolina coast stand as pieces of our past. CURRITUCK BEACH LIGHTHOUSE This lighthouse was constructed from 1874 - 1875, and it lit the last dark spot on the Carolina coast between the Cape Fear lighthouse in Virginia and Bodie Island. The red brick lighthouse rises 158 feet above sea level. Unlike many other lighthouses that received distinctive day marks, Currituck was not painted. But its red brick is unique on the Carolina coast. It has a short light signal: 5 seconds on, 15 seconds off. There is a Fresnel lens still working in the lighthouse and it is activated from dusk to dawn. Currituck Lighthouse is open 10-6 daily from Easter to Thanksgiving weekend. You can walk to the top of the lighthouse. BODIE ISLAND LIGHTHOUSE This was the third lighthouse to be built on Bodie Island (pronounced “body”) and was constructed in the early 1870’s.

  • Blackbeard and Shipwrecks - Ocracock Inlet
    Blackbeard and Shipwrecks - Ocracock Inlet This image depicts part of a map called Ocacock Inlet, including the following printed notation: "A 1733 chart of Ocracoke Inlet by Edward Moseley." (Note the different spellings of the inlet's name, including today's "Ocracoke"). The inlet, an estuary situated in the Outer Banks of North Carolina, connects the Atlantic Ocean to Pamlico Sound. It also separates the islands of Portsmouth and Ocracoke. This place was the scene of a battle, in 1718, between the British Royal Navy (led by Lieutenant Robert Maynard) and Edward Teach (the pirate known as "Blackbeard"). At the end of the fighting, the pirates had lost (and Blackheard’s severed head was on the bowsprit of Maynard's ship). This map is still an important resource. It allows modern researchers to examine how the Inlet has changed during hundreds of years. It also helps to explain why there have been so many shipwrecks in the area. We learn about that from NOAA (the U.S. federal government’s National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration): Ocracoke Inlet, North Carolina, is shown on Edward Moseley's map of 1733. This map, when compared with other historic maps, enabled researchers to determine how the inlet has changed over several hundred years. Some shipwrecks are no longer in or near the present inlet. The map clearly shows the obstructions at the mouth of the inlet that caused numerous ships to run aground. In fact, there have been so many shipwrecks in this area that we now have an “Ocracoke Shipwreck Survey.” Ocean Explorer, part of NOAA’s website, tells us about the survey: An extraordinary increase in the number of identified shipwreck sites since the beginning of the Ocracoke Shipwreck Survey has led to the development of a Geographic Information System (GIS), which can provide overlays of data by location, date, ship type, and other criteria.

  • Supplemental Article to Where Is the Lost Colony?
    Challenges to living by the sea A supplement to the serial story, Where is The Lost Colony? written by Sandy Semans, editor, Outer Banks Sentinel The thin ribbon of sand that forms the chain of islands known as the Outer Banks is bounded on the east by the Atlantic Ocean and on the west by the sounds. The shapes of the islands and the inlets that run between them continue to be altered by hurricanes, nor’easters and other weather events. Inlets that often proved to be moving targets created access to the ocean and the sounds. Inlets were formed and then later filled with sand and disappeared. Maps of the coastline show many places named “New Inlet,” although currently there is no inlet there. The one exception has been Ocracoke Inlet between Ocracoke and Portsmouth islands. Marine geologists estimate that the existing inlet — with some minor changes — has been in place for at least 2500 years. During the English exploration of the 1500’s, most likely the ships came through this inlet, making it a long sail to Roanoke Island. At that time, there was a small shallow inlet between Hatteras and Ocracoke islands, but the shallow inlet probably was avoided for fear of going aground. By the early 1700s, this inlet had filled in, and the two became just one long island. But in 1846, a hurricane created two major inlets. One, now called Oregon Inlet, sliced through the sand, leaving today’s Pea Island to the south and Bodie Island to the north. And a second inlet, now known as Hatteras Inlet, once again separated Hatteras Island from Ocracoke Island.

    LAND OF THE BRIGHT LEAF: YELLOW TOBACCO, ENVIRONMENT, AND CULTURE ALONG THE BORDER OF VIRGINIA AND NORTH CAROLINA by DREW A. SWANSON (Under the Direction of Paul Sutter) ABSTRACT Bright tobacco became the staple crop along the Piedmont border of Virginia and North Carolina around 1840. Although regional farmers had long cultivated tobacco, bright tobacco was a new variety of the old staple, and its culture transformed both land and people. Bright tobacco was a product of established tobacco culture, environmental conditions, and consumer preferences. The new crop brought amazing benefits: it grew best on the poorest Piedmont soils, land unsuited to other crops, and it sold for astonishingly high prices. Bright tobacco also supported a local manufacturing industry that produced chewing tobacco and cigarettes for national and global markets. But bright tobacco eventually impoverished both land and people. The crop’s culture led to severe soil erosion, deforestation, a dependency on commercial fertilizers, overproduction, and indebtedness. Bright tobacco culture’s environmental foundations also shaped regional race relations before and after emancipation. Regional African Americans’ prospects for landownership and independent labor, and white perceptions of black land stewardship, depended to an extent on white conceptions of crop and environment. Bright tobacco’s story was ultimately a tale of the degradation of land, landowners, and labor, but the crop’s decline had its roots in regional farmers’ desires for permanence, improved agriculture, and sustainability.

Holden, editor of the powerful Raleiph, North Carolina Standard, member consecutively of four political parties, and reconstruction governor of North Carolina. Holden has been cenerallv re- garded as a politically ambitious and unscrupulous man, as well as some- thing of a traitor for his role as advocate of pence during the Civil War. Holden, trained in newspaper work from boyhood, left the Whig partv in 1843 to accept the editorship of the Standard, the Democratic partv organ in Raleigh. He rapidly built it into the larrest paper in the state and became a leader in the Democratic partv, and one of its more liberal voices. Originally a defender of the right of secession, his liberal position on other matters and his humble origins had led bv 1860 to his alienation from the leadership of his party, and from the slaveholding interest in North Carolina.

  • Hominy Swamp Creek Watershed Assessment and Restoration Plan
    Hominy Swamp Creek Watershed Assessment and Restoration Plan 1 Introduction 1.1 Background The North Carolina Department of Environment and Natural Resources Ecosystem Enhancement Program (EEP; formerly the NC Wetlands Restoration Program) received a grant from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in 1999 to develop a watershed assessment and restoration plan for one or more 14-digit hydrologic units within the Contentnea Creek watershed (Subbasin 7 of the Neuse River Basin). Hominy Swamp Creek (HU # 03020203020040; Figure 1.1), in Wilson, NC, was selected for the study in part because there were obvious nonpoint source water quality problems, the watershed appeared to have need and opportunity for watershed restoration planning, and there were noted concerns about flooding and associated resource and financial impacts in the City. Natural resource agencies in the community (federal, state, and local) expressed a willingness to participate in the watershed planning process; a summary of local participation and watershed goals is presented in Appendix A. Components of the grant were developed between 1999-2004 and are incorporated in this assessment and restoration plan. Other elements and deliverables for the grant are summarized in Appendix C. 1.2 Project History Earlier studies: The EPA grant was used to develop a watershed assessment and management plan for the upper portion of Hominy Swamp Creek (KCI, 1999), and a stream restoration project was implemented in Recreation Park (Figures 1.2, 1.3, 1.4) as a result of that assessment. Funding from the grant was also used to develop a land use/land cover characterization using high resolution satellite imagery (Center for Earth Observation, North Carolina State University, 2000).

  • 'Devoted to the Interests of His Race': Black Officeholders
    ABSTRACT Title of dissertation: “DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF HIS RACE”: BLACK OFFICEHOLDERS AND THE POLITICAL CULTURE OF FREEDOM IN WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, 1865-1877 Thanayi Michelle Jackson, Doctor of Philosophy, 2016 Dissertation directed by: Associate Professor Leslie S. Rowland Department of History This dissertation examines black officeholding in Wilmington, North Carolina, from emancipation in 1865 through 1876, when Democrats gained control of the state government and brought Reconstruction to an end. It considers the struggle for black office holding in the city, the black men who held office, the dynamic political culture of which they were a part, and their significance in the day-to-day lives of their constituents. Once they were enfranchised, black Wilmingtonians, who constituted a majority of the city’s population, used their voting leverage to negotiate the election of black men to public office. They did so by using Republican factionalism or what the dissertation argues was an alternative partisanship. Ultimately, it was not factional divisions, but voter suppression, gerrymandering, and constitutional revisions that made local government appointive rather than elective, Democrats at the state level chipped away at the political gains black Wilmingtonians had made. “DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF HIS RACE”: BLACK OFFICEHOLDERS AND THE POLITICAL CULTURE OF FREEDOM IN WILMINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, 1865-1877 by Thanayi Michelle Jackson Dissertation submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Maryland, College Park, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2016 Advisory Committee: Associate Professor Leslie S.
