Garden Of Ruins: Military Occupation And State Power In Civil War Louisiana, Johnathan Matthew Ward
Garden Of Ruins: Military Occupation And State Power In Civil War Louisiana, Johnathan Matthew Ward
LSU Doctoral Dissertations
Using Civil War Louisiana as its focus, I argue that military occupation and expansive state power during the US Civil War served the primary mechanisms by which national states fought the war, stabilized order, and shaped a postwar nation. While many histories of the war separate frontline combat from the domestic home front and distinguish between the policy decisions of high politics and everyday decisions on the ground, this dissertation connects the political decisions of war to the daily acts of governance and resistance in occupied Louisiana. Union occupation officials and Confederate state authorities made contingent decisions throughout the war …
Over The Edge: Suburban Planned Communities, The Second Frontier, And The Rise Of 80s High School Films, Daniel Mcclure
Over The Edge: Suburban Planned Communities, The Second Frontier, And The Rise Of 80s High School Films, Daniel Mcclure
Far West Popular Culture Association Annual Conference
While many 1980s youth-oriented films often sold various images of consumption, Over the Edge was one of the early prototypes of the genre, offering a more sober—a more 70s—outlook on youth attempting to find meaning and identity in a corporate-driven, materialistic space called American suburbia. Both a setting for paradise as well as an existential hell for the youth growing up amidst it, the film mobilizes the West and its frontier-like majesty haunting the characters’ space in the planned development of New Granada—a place where families are safe and entrepreneurs can thrive. Specters of the West haunt the film—from the …

The Seminole Council, October 23-25, 1834, T. Frederick Davis
Florida Historical Quarterly
The territory embraced within the state of Florida was not acquired by the United States through direct purchase from Spain. The treaty ceding this territory was drawn around a claim clause of this country and its citizens against the Spanish government for alleged damages for various reasons. The United States government agreed to cancel its claims and assume the payment of those of its citizens to an amount not exceeding five million dollars, in consideration of which Spain ceded Florida. The transfer of government was accomplished in July, 1821; whereupon General Andrew Jackson became provisional governor.
Documents Relating To El Destino And Chemonie Plantations, Middle Florida, 1828-1868. Part Ii, Kathryn T. Abbey
Documents Relating To El Destino And Chemonie Plantations, Middle Florida, 1828-1868. Part Ii, Kathryn T. Abbey
Florida Historical Quarterly
The second instalment of documents relating to the plantations of El Destino and Chemonie contains records of Chemonie during its first year as part of the Jones property. The estate was located some six miles north of El Destino in Leon County, and was purchased by Mary Savage Nuttall a few months before her marriage to George Noble Jones. The object of the purchase was to give employment to some eighty negroes whom the future Mrs. Jones had inherited from the estate of an uncle, William Savage. It is probable that not all of the group were placed on Chemonie, …

Jefferson County, Florida, 1827-1910, Part Ii, Samuel Pasco
Jefferson County, Florida, 1827-1910, Part Ii, Samuel Pasco
Florida Historical Quarterly
The Seminole War. - The treaty negotiated with the Florida tribes of Indians at Moultrie Creek, September 18, 1823, provided for their removal to a location on the peninsula designated in the treaty, but by an additional article some of the principal chiefs and their connections were allowed to remain in Middle Florida upon certain bodies of land granted to them for their use and occupation. The main body of the Indians removed to the district assigned to them during the winter of 1824. They had left their old homes and hunting grounds with great reluctance. They were not satisfied …
St. Francis Barracks, St. Augustine; The Franciscans In Florida, Charles H. Mohr O.S.B.
St. Francis Barracks, St. Augustine; The Franciscans In Florida, Charles H. Mohr O.S.B.
Florida Historical Quarterly
St. Francis Barracks, once the home of the sons of St. Francis, is perhaps the only religious edifice ever taken and used continuously by the United States for military purposes. This came about through the treaty made with Spain and not by an act of hostility against the Catholic Church. The Franciscans will probably never again take possession of their ancient home. Surely, though, some day-and may it be soon-there will be some place in Florida to which they will be called to renew the work so successfully and efficiently performed by their saintly and courageous predecessors.

Documents Relating To El Destino And Chemonie Plantations, Middle Florida, 1828-1868. Part I, Kathryn A. Abbey
Florida Historical Quarterly
This series of plantation documents will be continued through several numbers of the QUARTERLY. Taken singly, some of these may seem to be of slight interest and of no value to the recording of Florida’s history; but they have been selected to give a view of plantation life and conditions and practice from as many different directions as possible, and it is believed that together they picture at least an outline of what a typical Middle Florida plantation was before the War. Portions of the journals of the overseers, their letters to the owner, and extracts literatim from the other …

Jefferson County, Florida, 1827-1910. Part I, Samuel Pasco
Jefferson County, Florida, 1827-1910. Part I, Samuel Pasco
Florida Historical Quarterly
It was in January, 1827, that Jefferson County was formed out of Leon, with its western boundary nearly the same as at present and the eastern boundary remaining at the Suwannee until December, 1827, when Madison County was established. Thus Jefferson County became a separate territorial division and governmental organization, after being at times a part of the provinces of East Florida and West Florida, and of the counties of Escambia, Jackson, Gadsden, and Leon. It extends from the Georgia line to the Gulf, a distance of about forty miles, and at the base line is about twenty miles wide. …

Samuel Pasco (1834-1917), Samuel Pasco
Florida Historical Quarterly
The accompanying history of Jefferson County, Florida, was prepared by Senator Pasco at the time of the dedication of the court house at Monticello in 1910, and was in part used by him in an address on that occasion. As first written the history of this region was traced from the earliest times to 1910; but because much relating to the period prior to the establishment of the county in 1827 has appeared in other articles in the QUARTERLY the narrative will begin with that year. The entire manuscript has been given to and may be seen in the collections …
