The War That Made America

I recently began using the PBS series "The War That Made America" with my seventh grade students. It's a great series, however some of the student activities were a little over their heads. I decided to design worksheets with questions based on each part of the series to ensure that my students understood the events that were being shown. I think these worksheets were pretty effective.

Civil War Roundtable

Canton- This November marks 150 years since the election of President Abraham Lincoln. By the time Lincoln assumed office on March 4, 1861 seven states had seceded from the Union and established the Confederate States of America. Commemorating 150 Years since the Civil War is the topic of the Civil War Roundtable on Sunday, September 26th at 2 p.m. at the St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House, 3 East Main St., Canton. This discussion about the association’s plans for the 150th commemoration of that bloody conflict known as the War Between the States is free and open to the public.

The Civil War Roundtable is hosting an open forum where plans that have already been made regarding the 150th commemoration can be shared, new ideas can be brought up and people can get involved. The fact that this war occurred seven score and 10 years ago has done nothing to lessen its impact on the psyche of America (in this context score refers to 20 years, and yes I did have to look that up). While many at the time might have felt that Lincoln’s election in November of 1860 meant an armed conflict was bound to happen, none could have foretold that such a conflict would become this country’s deadliest war with 620,000 soldiers killed, along with untold civilian casualties.

People of all ages interested in the Civil War and its impact on the North Country are welcome to attend this free Civil War Roundtable program at the St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House, 3 East Main St., Canton. The program begins at 2 p.m. on Sunday, September 26th, 2010. The St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House is open Tuesday through Saturday noon to 4 p.m., Friday noon to 8 p.m. Admission to the museum is free; admission to the archives is free for members and children, $2.50 for college students, and $5 for the general public. The St. Lawrence County Historical Association is located at 3 E. Main St., Canton. Parking is available in the back of the SLCHA, next to the museum’s main entrance.

Brown Bag Lunch at Silas Wright House

CANTON –What’s a great brown bag lunch topic in dairy country like St. Lawrence County? Why cheese, of course! Find out what you’ve been missing at St. Lawrence County, the Adirondack Crescent, and America's Cheese on Thursday, August 5th (special date) at the St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House, 3 East Main St., Canton. This free program will be given by SLCHA members Russ Hall & Peg Rooney Hall, authors of the newly published The Summer of a Thousand Cheeses. They will share some of what they learned while doing research for the book over the past four years.



Russ Hall grew up in Star Lake and Peg Rooney Hall in Rochester. Both were early fans of New York cheddars and of cheese curds. Much of their research centered on the Adirondack region. Their curiosity was piqued when they discovered what they dubbed the Adirondack Crescent. In 1902, 613 cheese factories hugged the Adirondacks in the shape of a giant crescent. Only a handful of the factories remain today and few are prospering.



At the same time, the authors found that local, artisan-made cheeses were on the rise. In 2007 they happened upon the Warwick Cheese Festival, Quebec, which offered more than 300 types of cheese to sample. They next attended the American Cheese Society conference in Burlington, Vermont, where there were 1,200 kinds of cheese!



The authors will share highlights of their adventures tracing the simultaneous decline of local cheese factories and growth in the number of artisan cheese makers in the Adirondack Crescent and around the country. They will relate their findings to local natural history and human history, and to global trends affecting all of us.



Some of the questions the Halls will answer include:



What was the role of the Adirondack region and New York State in America’s cheese story?

What is happening today in America’s cheese landscape?

Who are today’s cheese makers? Where do they come from? How did they get started? What does cheese mean for their farms?

Where was artisan cheese hiding in the 1970s and 1980s while changing attitudes about foods were leading to backyard vegetable gardening and shopping at natural food stores and co-ops?



Bring your own questions to ask and cheese stories to share. The brown bag lunch will, of course, include a sample of cheese!



The St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House is open Tuesday through Saturday noon to 4 p.m., Friday noon to 8 p.m. Admission to the museum is free; admission to the archives is free for members and children, $2.50 for college students, and $5 for the general public.

French & Indian War Exhibit

Global warfare in our own backyard is the theme of the newest exhibit Battle for the St. Lawrence: The French & Indian War at the St. Lawrence County Historical Association. The exhibit is part of our year long commemoration of the 250th anniversary of the end of the French & Indian War.



This exciting exhibit features military and archeological artifacts from Fort La Presentation (modern day Ogdensburg), Native trade goods, and a variety of 18th century American everyday objects. Battle for the St. Lawrence: The French & Indian War tells the story of the war in North America between the French and the English and their respective Native American allies. Rivers were the highways of the 1700’s and whichever nation controlled the main waterways controlled the territory. Thus the St. Lawrence River was an important transportation resource for both sides.



This European grudge match was fought around the globe, and the decisive Battle of the Thousand Islands in August 1760 took place near Ogdensburg, NY. This battle was the last stand of the French on the St. Lawrence River and ultimately led to France’s defeat and loss of control of its northern North American territories to Britain. The exhibit Battle for the St. Lawrence: The French & Indian War is on display throughout 2010.



Other exhibits on display for your viewing pleasure include The Shaping of St. Lawrence County, Silas Wright House Period Rooms, Silas & Clarissa Wright Orientation exhibit, Quilts of Remington’s Day 1860-1910, and the Children’s Attic.



Researchers who visit the St. Lawrence County Historical Association’s archives and research room this summer can amuse themselves and learn at the same time by perusing the archives collection, which includes extensive genealogy information; old maps and directories; town and village histories; cemetery records; educational, industrial, and agricultural history; house histories; photographs of people, businesses, and buildings; and many postcards. Wireless access and a computer for public use expand research possibilities by connecting researchers to other libraries, newspapers, and online resources.



Collections in the Research Room include:

--The Silas Wright Collection. Wright (1795-1847) lived in the house that now is home to the St. Lawrence County Historical Association. Wright was a figure of national prominence who served as U.S. Senator, Governor of New York, and in a variety of other state and local posts. The Silas Wright Collection includes personal and professional letters from Wright, as well as his books from when he served in the New York State Senate.

-- The J. Henry Rushton Collection. Rushton was a renowned canoe and boat builder whose business was located in Canton in the late 19th and early 20th century. The Rushton materials include numerous photographs, artifacts, catalogs, correspondence and original documents pertaining to Rushton and his craft.

-- Macomb Purchase Papers. The original mostly 18th century legal documents between Alexander Macomb and the state of New York for the purchase of land that became St. Lawrence County.

The historical association’s Gift Shop includes numerous books on local history that are perfect for your summer reading list. Titles include Waterways of War: The Struggle for Empire 1754-1763 by Steve Benson and Ron Toelke; Stepping Back in Time: Tales from the Country Schools, by Canton author Judith Liscum, and long-time favorite: Uneven Ground, by Paul Jamieson.

Researchers and genealogists will find numerous CDs and DVDs to help trace North Country ancestors. William Cutter’s Genealogical and Family History of Northern New York, and its index, first published in 1910, is now available in a fully searchable three-CD set. Beers’ 1865 Atlas of St. Lawrence County, Everts’ 1878 History of St. Lawrence County, and The Quarterly magazine from 1956-2005 are available, as are numerous other CDs and DVDs of history books, maps, and documents. The SLCHA now accepts major credit cards to make your purchasing experience even easier.



Admission is free to the St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House; 3 East Main Street, Canton; museum hours are Tuesday through Saturday noon to 4 p.m., Friday noon to 8 p.m. The public research room is open the same hours. Admission to the research room is free for SLCHA members and children, $2.50 for college students, and $5 for the general public.

Irish in America Topic of March 18th Brown Bag Lunch

Irish in America Topic of March 18th Brown Bag Lunch

CANTON – Want to extend your St. Patrick’s Day celebration an extra day? Then join Ron Semple for his noontime Brown Bag Lunch program A Study in Green: The Irish in Our Midst, on Thursday, March 18th at the St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House, 3 East Main St., Canton.



Semple will trace the journey of the Irish in America from the trickle in colonial days, through the flood touched off by the devastating Irish famine in the mid-19th century, through the Civil War that brought them glory but not acceptance, to their long delayed assimilation in the mid-20th century.



Ron Semple is a retired newspaperman and a member of the board of trustees of the St. Lawrence County Historical Association. He is also the descendent of Irish immigrants who arrived in America in the 19th and 20th Centuries.



Nowadays, everyone is Irish on St. Patrick’s Day. It wasn’t always so. Semple notes that the Protestant Irish assimilated swiftly upon arrival but their Catholic compatriots, who formed the vast majority of immigrants, faced attitudes ranging from mild hostility to resolute hate.



According to Semple, the Irish formed their own communities, established their own churches, schools and institutions, and managed to be both prominent and isolated as they stubbornly made their way upwards in an American society that simultaneously grew more tolerant.



Now, Semple says, most Americans probably don’t know or care that Vice President Joe Biden is both Irish and Catholic.



In the 2000 census, 16 percent of the residents of St. Lawrence County identified themselves as Irish. That was more than any other ethnic group in the county except for the French who, as Semple points out, got there first.



The talk will begin at noon on March 18th, the day after St. Patrick’s Day, in the County Gallery of the St. Lawrence County Historical Association at the Silas Wright House, 3 E. Main St., Canton. The public is welcome to this free program; those attending may bring their lunch. Coffee, tea, and light refreshments will be provided.



Parking is available in back of the SLCHA, next to the main entrance to the museum. For more information, call the SLCHA at 315-386-8133 or e-mail info@slcha.org. This program is made possible with public funds from the New York State Council on the Arts, a state agency.

Association and the Fort La Presentation Association in commemorating
the 250th Anniversary of the French & Indian War on February 11th,
Noon - 8 pm at the SLCHA, 3 East Main St., Canton. You’ll be amazed
at the historic events that occurred on, and predated the founding of,
the City of Ogdensburg!

The lineup for the 250th commemoration program on Thursday, February 11 is:

12 noon Exhibit opening- Battle for the St. Lawrence: The
French & Indian War

12 noon Bob Bearor presenting an overview of the French and Indian War

3 pm Jack Vargo presenting The Fur Trade and the French

7 pm Jack Vargo presenting A Blast from the Past:
Remembering deLery’s Daring Raid on Fort Bull, March 1756

Bob Bearor from Keene, NY will speak at noon. Bearor is an
internationally known expert on French and Canadian partisan leaders
of the war. His fifth and newest book Leading By Example, Partisan
Fighters & Leaders of New France, 1660-1760: Volume Three has been
heralded as one of the most definitive works on the French & Indian
War. Bearor will give the big picture view of the war; including its
causes and how French forces in North America were able to stand up to
the overwhelming might of the British Empire for so many years.

In February 2006 Bearor, dressed in period clothing, walked along
major segments of the route used by French Captain Gaspard Joseph
Chaussegros deLery from Ft. La Presentation (Ogdensburg, NY) on a
historic winter raid against British forces at Ft. Bull (Rome, NY).
Bearor’s trek was done in subfreezing temperatures and included stops
along the route to speak at schools, historical associations, and
colleges. Bearor has been honored with the Nouvelle Croix de St.
Louis at a ceremony at Ft. Ticonderoga and was the first recipient of
this award on the North American Continent.

Jack Vargo from Croghan, NY will speak at 3 pm and 7 pm. Vargo will
explain during his 3 pm talk why the fur trade was so important to
both the French and English. He will also discuss how Native
Americans were involved with these European powers that were the Super
Powers of the 18th century. At 7 pm Vargo will give an exciting
presentation on Gaspard Joseph Chaussegros deLery’s daring winter raid
on Ft. Bull, and the tremendous damage visited upon British forces
from this risky attack during frigid weather.

Vargo is co-owner and head artisan for the Beaver River Trading
Company, a business started in 1995 to provide historically accurate
museum quality reproductions of 17th and 18th century colonial
artifacts for use at historic sites, museums and by re-enactors of the
colonial period. Some of Beaver River Trading Company’s reproductions
were used in the movies “Last of the Mohicans” and “Tecumseh” and an 8
hour PBS documentary on the “Lost Colony of Roanoke”. In addition to
operating a colonial blacksmith shop focused on the production of
knives, trade axes, and other metal trade material, Jack produces
items from brain tanned buckskin and uses Native American decorative
techniques, such as porcupine quill embroidery and loomed quillwork,
for other objects he produces. Jack and his wife Donna teach classes
on brain tan buckskin production, quill decoration and practical
blacksmithing, and have published 3 scholarly archeological papers
together.

The February 11th program is a lead up to the final signature event of
the NYS French and Indian War 250th Anniversary Commemoration
Commission to be held at Fort La Presentation’s Founder’s Day in
Ogdensburg the weekend of July 17-18, 2010. The Fort La Presentation
