Va.)","Art and artists","Special access restriction applies.","James Edward Davis (1901-1974), more often referred to as Jim Davis, was born in Clarksburg, West Virginia and was a member of the prominent Davis family, which also included politician John W. Davis (Democratic Presidential candidate of 1924) and author Julia Davis. Davis began studying art at Princeton University, where he would later return to teach. He continued his education first at the National Academy of Design in New York City and later in Paris, France. Davis had a prolific and varied artistic career as a painter, photographer, and film-maker. He was particularly fascinated with motion, which led him to evolve a style featuring motion pictures of abstract patterns of colored light. Davis also made documentary films, including ones about his friends and fellow artists, the architect Frank Lloyd Wright and the painter John Marin. (Notes for the documentaries are in this collection, but not the films themselves.)","See control folder for further information regarding Davis, including a copy of the West Virginia and Regional History Collection newsletter containing an article regarding Davis and this collection.","Artwork, photography, and papers of James Edward Davis, an artist born in Clarksburg, West Virginia.

Davis (Democratic Presidential candidate of 1924) and author Julia Davis. Davis began studying art at Princeton University, where he would later return to teach. He continued his education first at the National Academy of Design in New York City and later in Paris, France. Davis had a prolific and varied artistic career as a painter, photographer, and film-maker. He was particularly fascinated with motion, which led him to evolve a style featuring motion pictures of abstract patterns of colored light. Davis also made documentary films, including ones about his friends and fellow artists, the architect Frank Lloyd Wright and the painter John Marin. (Notes for the documentaries are in this collection, but not the films themselves.)","See control folder for further information regarding Davis, including a copy of the West Virginia and Regional History Collection newsletter containing an article regarding Davis and this collection.","Artwork, photography, and papers of James Edward Davis, an artist born in Clarksburg, West Virginia.

He received his Bachelor of Arts from West Virginia University in 1926; his masters from WVU in 1928; and a Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1936.  Dr. Core was a professor in WVU's Biology Department for 44 years (1928-1972) and chair of the Department for 18 years (1948-1966).  He was also curator of the WVU Herbarium for 40 years (1934-1972).  During World War II the Foreign Economic Administration sent Core to Columbia, South America (1943-1944), to explore the Andes Mountains in search of a source for quinine from the Cinchona tree.  There he discovered at least 15 new species and in 1978 one of the plants he discovered, the genus Corethamnium, was named for him.","Core was founder (1936) of the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club and editor of the journal, Castenea, for 35 years.  He was the author of scholarly books and articles with his early works focusing on the botany of West Virginia, and later works on local history and church history.  Two biology textbooks he co-authored became standards: General Biology with P.D. Strausbauh and B.R. Weimer and A New Manual for the Biology Laboratory with Weimer.  He also collaborated with Strausbaugh to write the classic The Flora of West Virginia.   Other botany texts include Vegetation of West Virginia, Woody Plants in Winter, and his most popular book Spring Wild Flowers of West Virginia which has been in print since 1948.  Core published articles in Castenea, Proceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science, and other scholarly sources.","After retirement in 1972, Core turned more of his attention to local history.  His most extensive local history work is the five-volume history of Monongalia County, West Virginia, The Monongalia Story (1974-1984).  His regular column, \"The Monongalia Story\" in Morgantown's Dominion Post also details the history of the county.  Earlier he had written The Chronicles of Core (1937) about the town where he was born, and Morgantown Disciples: a History of the First Christian Church of Morgantown (1960).","Core's civic activities were numerous and include serving on the Morgantown Public Library Board for 20 years (1959-1979), Morgantown City Council for 4 years, and Mayor of Morgantown for 2 years (1956-1957).  Core was an elder in his church, president of the Monongalia Historical Society, president of the Kiwanis, and much more.  In 1948, Core persuaded WVU to set aside 100 acres for an Arboretum. The Core Arboretum was named for him in 1967.   Earl L. Core Road in Morgantown also sports his name.","He died in Morgantown in 1984.","Elizabeth \"Betty\" Ann Bartholomew, botanist and educator, was born in Wheeling, West Virginia, in 1912.  She received a Bachelor of Arts degree in botany from West Virginia University in 1934.  She received a Master of Arts degree in botany from WVU with the thesis titled \"The Flora of Wirt County, West Virginia\" in 1948.  Bartholomew joined the staff of the WVU Biology Department in 1938, first as Herbarium clerk and later as Herbarium assistant.  In 1963 she was appointed as a biology instructor and curator of the Herbarium.  During this time she created the Distribution of Southeastern Plants to facilitate the exchange of specimens.  She added thousands of plants to the Herbarium collection and in 1950 started a 2,000-plant seed collection.  She retired from WVU in 1977","Bartholomew was a member of the West Virginia Academy of Science, editor of its newsletter (1960-61), and secretary (1972-1985); member and secretary for the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club (1946-1981); member of the American Nut Growers Association; charter member and faculty advisor of the botany fraternity Phi Epsilon Phi; and member of Phi Mu.","Bartholomew who joined the Girl Scouts at age 12 earned all the nature badges and maintained a life-long interest in scouting.  She served as a Girl Scout leader for more than 20 years.  She also promoted nature to children through the Phi Epsilon Phi annual Wildflower Day.  Additionally she worked with the Oglebay Nature Camp, church camp, and others.  She was a leader at the annual Wildflower Pilgrimage at Blackwater Falls.","The Southern Appalachian Botanical Society created the Elizabeth Ann Bartholomew Award in 1989 in her honor and the governor named her as the Outstanding West Virginia in 1974.","She died in Morgantown in 1985.","1197, 1556, 1730","Original Accession; 1756-1985; boxes 1-21 and two oversize folders","Records of Earl L. Core, botanist, writer, editor, historian, and West Virginia University professor and Biology Department Head.  Includes the correspondence, collected research materials, and writings of Dr. Core. The earliest correspondence, 1951-1960, deals mostly with his role as a botanist and West Virginia University Botany Department chair, and includes letters both to and from Dr. Core. Later correspondence, mostly from the 1960s but up to 1984, includes historical and genealogical inquiries in addition to matters pertaining to botany, publications, and Biology Department business.  Of importance is Dr. Core's correspondence with two prominent botanists, P.D. Strausbaugh, with whom Core authored botany and biology texts, and H.A. Allard.","In addition to botany and nature, a large part of the collection deals with the history of Morgantown, Monongalia County, and West Virginia.  The collected research materials for these areas include newspaper clippings, booklets and pamphlets, correspondence, genealogical charts, maps, original historical documents, and more.  Dr. Core's research resulted in the publication of a 5-volume history of Monongalia County, The Monongalia Story, as well as numerous newspaper columns in the Dominion Post.  The collected research materials support Dr. Core's research for some 30 monographs on various aspects of natural history, local history, and to a lesser extent Bible and religious study.","Graphic materials include oversized maps, photographs, photographic glass negatives and film, greeting cards, and post cards.","See series and subseries descriptions for more information.","Addendum of 2018-09; 1907-1984; boxes 22-25","These records include handwritten plant lists; typewritten scientific and history papers; newspapers and newspaper clippings; maps; University class records; collected research materials; and magnetic audio tapes of Dr. Core's lectures on the flora of West Virginia.

He received his Bachelor of Arts from West Virginia University in 1926; his masters from WVU in 1928; and a Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1936.  Dr. Core was a professor in WVU's Biology Department for 44 years (1928-1972) and chair of the Department for 18 years (1948-1966).  He was also curator of the WVU Herbarium for 40 years (1934-1972).  During World War II the Foreign Economic Administration sent Core to Columbia, South America (1943-1944), to explore the Andes Mountains in search of a source for quinine from the Cinchona tree.  There he discovered at least 15 new species and in 1978 one of the plants he discovered, the genus Corethamnium, was named for him.","Core was founder (1936) of the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club and editor of the journal, Castenea, for 35 years.  He was the author of scholarly books and articles with his early works focusing on the botany of West Virginia, and later works on local history and church history.  Two biology textbooks he co-authored became standards: General Biology with P.D. Strausbauh and B.R. Weimer and A New Manual for the Biology Laboratory with Weimer.  He also collaborated with Strausbaugh to write the classic The Flora of West Virginia.   Other botany texts include Vegetation of West Virginia, Woody Plants in Winter, and his most popular book Spring Wild Flowers of West Virginia which has been in print since 1948.  Core published articles in Castenea, Proceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science, and other scholarly sources.","After retirement in 1972, Core turned more of his attention to local history.  His most extensive local history work is the five-volume history of Monongalia County, West Virginia, The Monongalia Story (1974-1984).  His regular column, \"The Monongalia Story\" in Morgantown's Dominion Post also details the history of the county.  Earlier he had written The Chronicles of Core (1937) about the town where he was born, and Morgantown Disciples: a History of the First Christian Church of Morgantown (1960).","Core's civic activities were numerous and include serving on the Morgantown Public Library Board for 20 years (1959-1979), Morgantown City Council for 4 years, and Mayor of Morgantown for 2 years (1956-1957).  Core was an elder in his church, president of the Monongalia Historical Society, president of the Kiwanis, and much more.  In 1948, Core persuaded WVU to set aside 100 acres for an Arboretum. The Core Arboretum was named for him in 1967.   Earl L. Core Road in Morgantown also sports his name.","He died in Morgantown in 1984.","Elizabeth \"Betty\" Ann Bartholomew, botanist and educator, was born in Wheeling, West Virginia, in 1912.  She received a Bachelor of Arts degree in botany from West Virginia University in 1934.  She received a Master of Arts degree in botany from WVU with the thesis titled \"The Flora of Wirt County, West Virginia\" in 1948.  Bartholomew joined the staff of the WVU Biology Department in 1938, first as Herbarium clerk and later as Herbarium assistant.  In 1963 she was appointed as a biology instructor and curator of the Herbarium.  During this time she created the Distribution of Southeastern Plants to facilitate the exchange of specimens.  She added thousands of plants to the Herbarium collection and in 1950 started a 2,000-plant seed collection.  She retired from WVU in 1977","Bartholomew was a member of the West Virginia Academy of Science, editor of its newsletter (1960-61), and secretary (1972-1985); member and secretary for the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club (1946-1981); member of the American Nut Growers Association; charter member and faculty advisor of the botany fraternity Phi Epsilon Phi; and member of Phi Mu.","Bartholomew who joined the Girl Scouts at age 12 earned all the nature badges and maintained a life-long interest in scouting.  She served as a Girl Scout leader for more than 20 years.  She also promoted nature to children through the Phi Epsilon Phi annual Wildflower Day.  Additionally she worked with the Oglebay Nature Camp, church camp, and others.  She was a leader at the annual Wildflower Pilgrimage at Blackwater Falls.","The Southern Appalachian Botanical Society created the Elizabeth Ann Bartholomew Award in 1989 in her honor and the governor named her as the Outstanding West Virginia in 1974.","She died in Morgantown in 1985."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003e[Description and date of item], [Box/folder number], Earl L.

He received his Bachelor of Arts from West Virginia University in 1926; his masters from WVU in 1928; and a Ph.D. from Columbia University in 1936.  Dr. Core was a professor in WVU's Biology Department for 44 years (1928-1972) and chair of the Department for 18 years (1948-1966).  He was also curator of the WVU Herbarium for 40 years (1934-1972).  During World War II the Foreign Economic Administration sent Core to Columbia, South America (1943-1944), to explore the Andes Mountains in search of a source for quinine from the Cinchona tree.  There he discovered at least 15 new species and in 1978 one of the plants he discovered, the genus Corethamnium, was named for him.","Core was founder (1936) of the Southern Appalachian Botanical Club and editor of the journal, Castenea, for 35 years.  He was the author of scholarly books and articles with his early works focusing on the botany of West Virginia, and later works on local history and church history.  Two biology textbooks he co-authored became standards: General Biology with P.D. Strausbauh and B.R. Weimer and A New Manual for the Biology Laboratory with Weimer.  He also collaborated with Strausbaugh to write the classic The Flora of West Virginia.   Other botany texts include Vegetation of West Virginia, Woody Plants in Winter, and his most popular book Spring Wild Flowers of West Virginia which has been in print since 1948.  Core published articles in Castenea, Proceedings of the West Virginia Academy of Science, and other scholarly sources.","After retirement in 1972, Core turned more of his attention to local history.  His most extensive local history work is the five-volume history of Monongalia County, West Virginia, The Monongalia Story (1974-1984).  His regular column, \"The Monongalia Story\" in Morgantown's Dominion Post also details the history of the county.  Earlier he had written The Chronicles of Core (1937) about the town where he was born, and Morgantown Disciples: a History of the First Christian Church of Morgantown (1960).","Core's civic activities were numerous and include serving on the Morgantown Public Library Board for 20 years (1959-1979), Morgantown City Council for 4 years, and Mayor of Morgantown for 2 years (1956-1957).  Core was an elder in his church, president of the Monongalia Historical Society, president of the Kiwanis, and much more.  In 1948, Core persuaded WVU to set aside 100 acres for an Arboretum. The Core Arboretum was named for him in 1967.   Earl L. Core Road in Morgantown also sports his name.","He died in Morgantown in 1984.","Elizabeth \"Betty\" Ann Bartholomew, botanist and educator, was born in Wheeling, West Virginia, in 1912.  She received a Bachelor of Arts degree in botany from West Virginia University in 1934.  She received a Master of Arts degree in botany from WVU with the thesis titled \"The Flora of Wirt County, West Virginia\" in 1948.  Bartholomew joined the staff of the WVU Biology Department in 1938, first as Herbarium clerk and later as Herbarium assistant.

Core, botanist, writer, editor, historian, and West Virginia University professor and Biology Department Head.  Includes the correspondence, collected research materials, and writings of Dr. Core. The earliest correspondence, 1951-1960, deals mostly with his role as a botanist and West Virginia University Botany Department chair, and includes letters both to and from Dr. Core. Later correspondence, mostly from the 1960s but up to 1984, includes historical and genealogical inquiries in addition to matters pertaining to botany, publications, and Biology Department business.  Of importance is Dr. Core's correspondence with two prominent botanists, P.D. Strausbaugh, with whom Core authored botany and biology texts, and H.A. Allard.","In addition to botany and nature, a large part of the collection deals with the history of Morgantown, Monongalia County, and West Virginia.  The collected research materials for these areas include newspaper clippings, booklets and pamphlets, correspondence, genealogical charts, maps, original historical documents, and more.  Dr. Core's research resulted in the publication of a 5-volume history of Monongalia County, The Monongalia Story, as well as numerous newspaper columns in the Dominion Post.  The collected research materials support Dr. Core's research for some 30 monographs on various aspects of natural history, local history, and to a lesser extent Bible and religious study.","Graphic materials include oversized maps, photographs, photographic glass negatives and film, greeting cards, and post cards.","See series and subseries descriptions for more information.","Addendum of 2018-09; 1907-1984; boxes 22-25","These records include handwritten plant lists; typewritten scientific and history papers; newspapers and newspaper clippings; maps; University class records; collected research materials; and magnetic audio tapes of Dr. Core's lectures on the flora of West Virginia. Plant lists and lecture notes presumably refer to slides in A\u0026M 5211.

Campbell (April 4, 1833-February 13, 1899) was editor and part owner of the Wheeling Daily Intelligencer newspaper and a leader in the West Virginia statehood movement. He was the nephew of Alexander Campbell, founder and first president of Bethany College and a founder of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). Archibald Campbell was born in Steubenville, Ohio. He spent most of his childhood in Bethany, West Virginia, and attended Bethany College, graduating in 1852. He then attended Hamilton College Law School in Clinton, New York, graduating in 1855. He moved to Wheeling in spring 1856 to take a job at the Daily Intelligencer. In the fall of 1856, he and John F. McDermot purchased the paper and Campbell became editor.","Campbell was a member of the fledgling Republican Party, and editorials in his paper favored Republican causes, especially the abolition of slavery and preservation of the Union. The Intelligencer was the only Republican daily paper in Virginia and the only paper in the state to endorse Abraham Lincoln for the presidency in 1860. Campbell strongly opposed Virginia's secession from the United States. He supported the creation of the Reorganized Government of Virginia, and he worked hard, through his editorials and behind the scenes, for the formation of the new state of West Virginia. President Lincoln appointed Campbell postmaster of the Wheeling Post Office in 1861. According to Campbell's daughter, Jessie Campbell Nave, it was he who wrote the text of the telegram (sent by Governor Pierpont) that reputedly convinced President Lincoln to sign the West Virginia statehood bill.","In Campbell's later years, he retired from the newspaper and traveled extensively. He died of a stroke at the home of a sister in Webster Groves, Missouri.","This historical note is based on an article in the West Virginia Encyclopedia.","Papers of Archibald W.

The collection includes correspondence, clippings, ephemera, and scrapbooks dealing with the Civil War and political affairs in West Virginia's early statehood period. Some of the correspondence asks Campbell to publish specific accounts of events or rebuttals of others, showing the importance of the newspapers in shaping public perception.
