Book excerpt: In 2003, Sussex County celebrates the two hundred fiftieth anniversary of its creation, which took place on June 8, 1753. At that time, all of present-day Sussex and Warren Counties were set aside from Morris County. Warren County was established by the state legislature in 1824, forming the current boundaries of Sussex County. Among the previously unpublished photographs in this history are views of the county's commercial and residential streets, mining and industrial facilities, and business establishments. The vast majority of the unique vintage images included here are drawn from Wayne T. McCabe's extraordinary collection of more than fifteen thousand photographs, glass negatives, postcards, and stereoscopic views of Sussex County.

Download or read book Delaware s Forgotten Folk written by C. A. Weslager and published by University of Pennsylvania Press. This book was released on 2012-07-05 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "It is offered not as a textbook nor as a scientific discussion, but merely as reading entertainment founded on the life history, social struggle, and customs of a little-known people."—From the Preface C. A. Weslager's Delaware's Forgotten Folk chronicles the history of the Nanticoke Indians and the Cheswold Moors, from John Smith's first encounter with the Nanticokes along the Kuskakarawaok River in 1608, to the struggles faced by these uniquely multiracial communities amid the racial and social tensions of mid-twentieth-century America. It explores the legend surrounding the origin of the two distinct but intricately intertwined groups, focusing on how their uncommon racial heritage—white, black, and Native American—shaped their identity within society and how their traditional culture retained its significance into their present. Weslager's demonstrated command of available information and his familiarity with the people themselves bespeak his deep respect for the Moor and Nanticoke communities. What began as a curious inquiry into the overlooked peoples of the Delaware River Valley developed into an attentive and thoughtful study of a distinct group of people struggling to remain a cultural community in the face of modern opposition. Originally published in 1943, Delaware's Forgotten Folk endures as one of the fundamental volumes on understanding the life and history of the Nanticoke and Moor peoples.

Book excerpt: Located on the Delmarva Peninsula, between the Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic Ocean, Seaford has always been a land rich in resources. The area was used by the Leni-Lanape Indians for both hunting and fishing and was first settled by Europeans in the seventeenth century. As early settlers raised their families and new generations thrived, Seaford began to take shape. Churches, businesses, schools, and other civic and social institutions were formed, and, in 1835, Seaford became an established town. A vibrant riverside community on the banks of the Nanticoke in Sussex County, Seaford has long been one of the Eastern Shore's most important economic sites. From the oyster houses and boatyards lining the river to the numerous produce farms and canneries to DuPont's first textile plant, many industries have contributed to the growth and stability of the greater Seaford area. Images in this visual retrospective not only provide glimpses of these important businesses of days gone by, but also pay tribute to the remarkable people and places that have given Seaford its proud heritage.
