Download or read book The Mississippi Gulf Coast Seafood Industry written by Deanne Love Stephens and published by Univ. Press of Mississippi. This book was released on 2021-06-04 with total page 163 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seafood industry on the coast of Mississippi has attracted waves of immigrants and other workers—oftentimes folks who were either already acquainted with maritime livelihoods or those who quickly adapted to the resources of the region. For generations the industry has provided employment and sustenance to Coast peoples. Deanne Love Stephens tells their stories and identifies key populations who have worked this harvest. Oyster and shrimp processing were the most significant of these trades, and much of the Gulf Coast's history follows these two delicacies. Harvesting, processing, and marketing oyster and shrimp products built the Mississippi seafood industry and powered the growth of the entire coastal region. This book is the first to offer a broad view of the many ethnic groups and distinct populations who toiled in the oyster and shrimp industries. Relying heavily upon contemporary newspapers, oral histories, and interviews to create a rich picture of the industry and its workers, the author presents the history of laboring people who daily toiled in factories and often went unheard and unrecognized. Stephens provides an overview of significant early developments and the beginnings of the industry, considering the development of railroad expansion, lighthouse construction, and ice technology. She covers significant state and federal legislation that both defined and protected marine resources, illustrating the depth of the industry’s importance as Mississippians wrestled with adequate protective measures to preserve oyster and shrimp resources throughout the nineteenth and twentieth centuries.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Industrial Mississippi: With Special Reference to the Gulf and Ship Island Railroad Such marked progress has been made in that section in recent years that those who are not in close touch with it can hardly appreciate its growth. It seems advisable, therefore, to issue a pamphlet to give some idea of the development. The interest shown was greater than had been anticipated, and, in conse quence, the first edition of this pamphlet has been exhausted. The present edition includes the latest statistics of the Gulf Ship Island Railroad, and contains several new illustrations which Show the rapid growth of Southern Mississippi and the development of Gulfport into one of the leading ports on the Gulf of Mexico. Apart from the large lumbering operations that are being car ried on in that region, the number of farms and factories is continually increasing. As the longleaf pine trees are cut down the cotton acreage is enlarged, and, in consequence, new cotton mills, cotton-seed oil mills, fertilizer factories, cotton compresses, and cotton gins are being started. The confidence of business men in that part of the country is well illustrated by the many new factories that are being built. Among the concerns that have recently recognized the advantages of locating along the Gulf Ship Island Railroad may be mentioned the E. Van Winkle Gin Machine Works Company of Atlanta, Ga., which is con structing a cotton-seed oil mill at Gulfport; the Vir ginia Carolina Chemical Company of Richmond, Va., which is building a large fertilizer factory at Jackson; and Armour Company of Chicago, Ill., who have recently completed a cold storage plant at Gulfport.
