  • Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research
    Wisconsin Topic Ideas for National History Day Research General Topic Ideas for Students Interested in Exploring the History of Our State National History Day in Wisconsin Updated: Summer 2010 1 A Warning for All Researchers! What follows is a very GENERAL list of topic ideas for you to consider. This list is by no means complete or exhaustive of Wisconsin history. There are many, many more fantastic topics to consider! These topics are NOT THEME SPECIFIC. You will need to take a closer look at each potential topic and consider how it fits with the annual theme for NHD. This is a general list. All the topics listed in this book WILL NOT fit the annual theme. Selecting a topic from this list does not guarantee a WINNING PROJECT. Selecting a topic is just the first step. You will need to follow through with good research, a strong argument, and a clear presentation. Selecting a topic from this list isn’t the final step. Many of these topics need to be further NARROWED in order for them to be a suitable National History Day project. Why Choose a Wisconsin Topic? The National History Day program doesn’t have any requirements or give you any advantage in choosing a Wisconsin topic. Wisconsin history, however, is full of great ideas for your History Day project. It is easy to overlook the history right around us, but your National History Day project can help you to find these amazing local stories that helped shape your history! Armed with local resources and strong research, you can become an authority on your topic and your project could be more competitive than a topic that many other students across the state or nation could choose.

  • The Allegheny County Bar in the Eighties Frank C
    The Allegheny County Bar in the Eighties Frank C. McGirk That Iwas admitted to the Bar of Allegheny County in 1880, and am still in the practice of my profession, is most likely the reason Iwas chosen to deliver this address. Iknew the great lawyers of that decade, —many of them intimately, —and frequently tried cases with and against them, and while Ithen knew their peculiarities and abilities, and the many stories then current about them, lapse of time and a failing memory willprevent the repetition of a great many matters of much interest, and jovial happen- ings of those old days. From the earliest days of this County, it has been noted for its great lawyers. Such men as Alexander Ad- dison, James Ross, Hugh Henry Brackenridge, John Woods, Thomas Collins, William Wilkins, Henry Baldwin, James Mountain, Samuel Roberts, Walter Forward, John H. Chap- lin,Neville B. Craig, Charles Shaler, Richard Biddle, John Henry Hopkins, and James Hall, of the early Pittsburgh Bar, and concerning whom, the late Judge Daniel Agnew delivered a most interesting address before the Allegheny County Bar Association on December 1, 1888, made our Bar famous throughout the land and shed great glory on the Pittsburgh lawyer. But the lawyers of the Eighties were just as great. The limits of time allowed me for this address willpermit me to refer only to a small number of those who were fam- ous in the Eighties, and no doubt Imay overlook some whom my brethren at the Bar will think well deserve remem- brance. As Judge Agnew said in his address : "The life of an upright, honorable and learned lawyer is full of instruction.
