| 7 | 8888.0004.0000.00 | documents | Ralph Houghton Wiley (1893--1981) Papers (1915--19 | Range, Exa 01/01/1915 - 12/31/1979 | Ralph Houghton Wiley (1893--1981) Papers (1915--1979). Biographical BackgroundRalph Houghton Wiley was born in Massapequa, New York, February 27, 1893. His parents were Rev. William Wiley and Dora Elizabeth Houghton Wiley. Ralph Wiley died September 6, 1981.He attended Stevens Prep and graduated with a degree in Mechanical Engineering from Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, New Jersey, in 1915.During World War I he worked for Worthington Company in Hazelton, Pennsylvania where he supervized Naval shell production.In 1928 he moved to Oxford, Maryland, and purchased a boatyard there in 1929. He operated the boatyard, with his wife, for over 30 years, building and designing custom yachts.During World War II Wiley took a job to make life rafts for the Maritime Commission. In 1950 he patented a design for thwartship deck construction.He retired in the 1960s and sold the Oxford boatyard.Well known for his custom yacht designs, Wiley designed both power and sail boats. Several of his most famous designs were the "Scrappy Cat," a one-design racing cat boat, and the cruising sailboats, MOCKINGBIRD and FOX':Wiley papers, page 2Wiley wrote many articles on yacht design for boating magazines. In 1972 he authored his autobiography, PREACHER'S SON.He was active in the community, and was a founding member of the Tred Avon Yacht Club. He also held memberships in the Out Island Sailing Squadron, the Windjammers, the Sailing Club of the Chesapeake.

They had a son, Charles Richardson Wiley.Scope and ContentRalph Wiley was one of the area'a best known boatbuildersand designers in recent years. His custom yachts were known in this area, and along the Eastern seaboard.Because of this, the most valuable parts of the collection are the boat plans themselves and ancillary materials. The plans span a period of years from the 1920s to the 1960s and reflect changes in tastes, styles, and in Wiley's own develppment.Plans of several of Wiley's best known boats are contained. A complete set of plans of the one-design racer "Scrappy Cat" is part of the collection. There are some drawings for the FOX and VIXEN also (Sailboats, 1940s).The papers are of interest to researchers interested specifically in the work of Ralph Wiley, and to students of yacht design from 1920s--1960s.Subjects:boatbuilding, yacht design, Wiley, Ralph H. | No image URL. | View | |||

| 13 | 8888.0101.0000.00 | papers | Papers of Constance S. Larrabee | The material in this collection was acquired in a donation from Constance Stuart Larrabee. Constance Stuart was born in England in 1914 and sailed with her parents to South Africa in the same year. She reseived her first camera, a Kodak No. 0 Box Brownie, at the age of ten, and was captivated by the medium. She studied photography in London and Munich. In 1944, she was South Africa's first woman war correspondednt serving in WWII. Her mission in Egypt was to document the acitvities of the South African Sixth Armored Division. Although her assignment was only to last six weeks, she turned it into an extended odyssey that took her to the front lines in Italy and Southern France, to areas just liberated from Axis rule, including Rome and Paris, and to war-torn London, where the menace of the V-2 rockets was ever present. Her photographs, stark, realistic, and compelling, proide a unique insight into World War II and its aftermath. Consatnce came to America in 1949 when she married Colonel Sterling Larrabee and moved to Chestertown on the Eastern Shore in 1950. She became an American citizen in 1953. Much of her Eastern Shore life centered at King's Prevention Kennel, where she bred over 600 Norwich and Norfolk terriers. Constance bred and trained not merely pets, but champions. An acknowledged expert on the breed, she co-edited Norwich Terrier USA 1936-1966 for the Norwich Terrier Club, USA. Ever concerned with her puppies' well-being, she permitted adoption only after she had carefully screened the prospective owners.Though very involved in breeding champion terriers, she also understood the importance of being involved with her community. The Chestertown Garden Club, the Humane Society of Kent County, the Chestertown Arts League, the Kent County Arts Council, and Washington College were some of the beneficiaries of her boundless energy and inspiration. In 1955 two of her photographs were selected by Edward Steichen to be included in The Family of Man exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York. She has since exhibited internationally and has work in leading museum collections, including the Corcoran Gallery of Art and the National Museum of African Art.[compliled from several sources in the collection by Lynne Phillips]Scope and ContentThe items in this collection are organized by subject.

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.
