Historic Archaeology at Work: Rehabilitating Our Past and Present to Secure Our Future (2016)
In response to the Great Depression, Franklin D. Roosevelt put millions to work by way of the Works Progress Administration (WPA). Similar to the efforts made by the WPA, the Veterans Curation Program (VCP) is addressing the unemployment rate for recently separated veterans by providing vocational training and temporary employment, while simultaneously providing the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) with the means to rehabilitate its archaeological collections to Federal standards. Now the...
Historic Cemeteries of Wayne County, Ohio: Sources of Local Identity (2016)

The joint research provides the WCCPS with a foundation of information...
Historic Cemetery Preservation in the Digital World (2020)
This is an abstract from the session entitled "Digital Technologies and Public Archaeology" , at the 2020 annual meeting of the Society for Historical Archaeology. Historic cemeteries are locations that contain a wealth of information about a community. However, over time much of this information is at risk of becoming lost. Whether this loss is due to poor record keeping or physical damage to grave-markers in a cemetery it is imperative that this information is preserved. By utilizing tools...
Historic Cherokee Settlements in the Arkansas River Valley (2013)
After the American Revolutionary War disrupted Native American groups were pushed westward, and among these were Cherokee who settled in the Arkansas River Valley beginning in the 1790s. Their population peaked during 1818-1828, after which they resettled farther west in Indian Territory. Archaeological evidence for the Arkansas Cherokee sites has been slow to come to light, because the sites were so briefly occupied and exhibit low artifact densities. Additionally, because the Arkansas...

Historic Dumps and Scatters: Trash or Sites? (2016)
Trash dumps and can scatters have been a thorn in the side of federal and state land management agencies in the western half of the United States. Over the last several years, this discussion on how to handle these sites has increased. While historic archaeologists have, to a limited degree, placed these sites in perspective, these activity features continue to be an issue for the various land management agencies. Often referred to as "isolated dumping episodes" or as "road trash," some agencies...
Historic Ethnography and the Early Colonial Delaware Valley (2017)
The documentary record and archaeological resources of the Delaware valley present an excellent opportunity to explore the complex interactions among colonial settlers and their Lenape and Susquehannock neighbors. Historic ethnography envisions approaching the culture of a group of people at a specific place and time from as many documentary and material perspectives as possible in order to develop a rich and deeply contextualized understanding of how those people lived. My approach to work on...

Historic Sites and Possible Worlds: Narrative-Building at Two Sites of African American History (2016)
Kate Gregory and Andrea Witcomb refer to the narratives of place and history that are created when people visit heritage sites as "possible worlds" – the mental and physical spaces where history is then grappled with, conceptualized, and understood. This paper considers two sites of African American history where archaeology has been conducted over the past five years, Timbuctoo, NJ and the Sellman Tenant House at SERC in Edgewater, MD, and explores the way narratives around these historic...
