G. __Author	Exact 02/01/1988 -		Part of this collection is on CSC 16B1.Midshipmens' Journals:BackgroundTwo journals kept by midshipmen of the U. S. Navy were bequeathed to the museum by Peter Black (1918-2002), a naval officer during World War II, a former member of the museum's board, yachtsman, artist, and advisor to the cabinets of Presidents Truman and Eisenhower.Pursuant to naval regulations, the two journals were kept by Midshipmen Philander A. J. P. Jones and E. Greenleafe Parrott. Jones became a midshipman on 16 January 1809. In 1814 he served under Commodore Isaac Chauncey at Sacketts Harbor on Lake Ontario. He was promoted to lieutenant on 24 July 1819, even though, in 1818, he had been charged with cutting off the mane and tail of a senior officer's horse and suspended for a year. In 1820, while assigned to the USF Constitution which was in ordinary at Boston Navy Yard where Isaac Hull was the commandant, Hull had him court-martialed for, among other things, lying about the theft of a horsewhip, and he was cashiered from the navy. Enoch Greenleafe Parrott (27 November 1815-10 May 1879) was born in Portsmouth, NH. He entered the navy as a midshipman 10 December 1831. After service off the African and South American coasts, the Mexican station, during the Civil War, at Charleston, and in the Asiatic Squadron, he retired in 1874 as a rear admiral.Scope and ContentPhilander Jones's journal covers the period from April through August 1811 when Jones served aboard the USN Brig Argus. Parrott's journal runs from February through December 1832 while he served on board the USN Schooner Boxer.	No image URL.	View

Brewington Collection:1930s-1950sThe collection is comprised of correspondence, research notes, ship plans, Yachting articles, newspaper clippings, draft manuscripts, and photographs concerned with Brewington's Chesapeake Bay related publications.Biographical BackgroundMarion Vernon Brewington was born at Salisbury, Maryland, on 23 June 1902 and died on 8 December 1974. As a youth, he worked as a hand on Chesapeake Bay vessels. After graduating from the University of Pennsylvania in 1925, he worked as a banker in Philadelphia. With the onset of World War II, in 1942 he was commissioned in the Naval Reserve and served in the Navy Department's Naval Records and Library. After the war he held the position of Acting Curator of the Naval Historical Foundation in Washington and Curator of the maritime collections at the Maryland Historical Society. In 1956 he assumed the posts of Assistant Director and Curator of Maritime History at the Peabody Museum of Salem, Massachusetts. In 1966 he accepted the Directorship of the Kendall Whaling Museum, Sharon, Massachusetts. He retired in the summer of 1974 to work on a cataloguing project at the Mystic Seaport Museum, Mystic, Connecticut. A prolific writer, he produced some of the most important works on Chesapeake Bay maritime boatbuilding and history. The American Neptune, XXXV:1 (January 1975)Scope and ContentThe collection represents Brewington's research methods. The range and type of material reflects the author's meticulous search for details regarding all aspects of the Chesapeake Bay's vernacular watercraft and shipping. The majority of information was collected during the period 1930-1950, though some documents exceed this date. Many of the documents, newspaper abstracts, and notes examine general information regarding eighteenth- and nineteenth-century shipbuilding and maritime commerce. Most of the correspondence deals specifically with information regarding late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century Chesapeake Bay vessels. The ship plans preserve specific designs of Chesapeake Bay related watercraft. Subject: Marion V Brewington	No image URL.	View

Subsequent designs were the Southern Cross and Seawind series. He designed Pride of Baltimore 3,(1976-77), the pungy Lady Maryland (1979), and Pride 2L Baltimore 11. (1988). Most recently Gillmer prepared a study of the USS Constitution for her overhaul by the navy. He is the author of several books and numerous articles.See also Oral History tape No. 93 with transcript and list of books and articles.The manuscript collection consists of six papers:1.

	15	0000.1100	photographs	Herman Hollerith, Jr. (1892-1976) Photo Collection		1890-1970		This is a collection of many photographs, which have not been cataloged individually. Please review the attachments for specific information on the images. <br /><br />Herman Hollerith, Jr. (1892-1976) Photo Collections (1890s--1970s) Biographical Background: Herman Hollerith, Jr. was born in 1892 at 3112 Q St., Georgetown, District of Columbia to Herman Hollerith, Sr. and Lucia Talcott Hollerith. His father invented the punch-card tabulating machine. He sold his company in 1911 to a firm that later became IBM. Other Hollerith children were Nan, Richard, Charles, Virginia and Lucia. The family lived in Georgetown, Garret Park and Montgomery County. In 1908 they bought a summer home in Mathews County, Virginia named Brighton. They spent their summers at Brighton from 1909. The family had a number of boats which were kept at Brighton: a New England dory named LUVINA; a flat bottomed power workboat named BRIGHTON; a 45 foot, gas powered yacht named REGINA, which was later renamed LUVINA and later still renamed MATOAKA, and an 85 foot vacht named LUVINA. The name Luvina was derived from the three daughter's names, Lucia, Virginia and Nan. Herman Hollerith, Jr. attended Worchester Polytechnic College with his borther, Charles, and received an engineering degree in 1917. He worked at the Naval Aircraft Factory in Philadelphia, and then at the Victor Talking Maching Company, where he was chief engineer and production engineer. During this time he lived in Riverton and Moorestown, New Jersey. He quit the Victor Talking Machine Company in 1928 when it was purchased by RCA. From 1932-1936 Hollerith was president of the Virginia Navigation Company and operated a small passenger steamer under contract to a large corporation. From 1936-39 he did not work during the Depression. In 1939 he moved to Baltimore to work for the Glenn L. Martin Company where he was involved in building airplanes during WWII. Hollerith worked until he was 69 years old. He was married twice. He and Sarah Valentine Fox had four children and were divorced in 1936. In 1938 he married Elisabeth C. Guest. In 1954 he bought a house near Oxford, Maryland and retired there in 1961. Hollerith was active in the early days ofnthe Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum and was instrumental in the move of the Hooper Strait Lighthouse to the grounds. Hollerith had a love for boats and owned the ERIC, launched in 1925, until his death. This sailboat was an Atkins design based on a Norwegian ketch. ERIC was the prototype of the Westsai1 32. Hollerith died in 1976. For more information about the Hollerith family researchers should consult: HERMAN HOLLERITH: FORGOTTEN GIANT OF INFORMATION PROCESSING, by Geoffrey D. Austrian; NY: 1982, Columbia University Press. Scope and Content: This collection consists of photos taken or collected by Hollerith. The bulk of photos were taken by Hollerith of scenes from 1915-1940. They feature steamboat and sailboat scenes on the lower Chesapeake. Many of the photos were taken on cruises around Mathews County, Va. Some photos (especially M series negatives) were collected by Hollerith and taken by his father and brothers. The photos depict the agriculture life of the lower western shore and often show the introduction of power. Many of these photos have been published. The water was an important focus for life in Brighton. Mrs. Elisabeth Hollerith supplied a quote from Hollerith about life in Brighton: We did everything by boat, used the daily steamer from Norfolk for transportation to and from Washington and for most supplies including ice. Met the steamer at one of the wharves on the East River each day to pick up mail, visiting friends, etc. The roads were so bad we rarely went inland. Went to church and to visit our friends in a motor boat. In addition to the following subject indices, the researcher should note that Hollerith had his own subject indices. These are available to researchers and especially useful in looking for boat names. They are stored with the negatives. Subjects:Airplanes; Caribbean; C & D Canal; Eastern Shore; Hollerith, Herman, Jr.; Log canoes; Mathews county, Va.; Old Point Comfort, Va.; Sailboats, commercial; Seafood Industry; Steamboats, Chesapeake Bay; Washington, DC; workboats, Chesapeake Bay.
