Oversize Material.","Mary Brickell (1836-1922) was a businesswoman, landowner, real estate developer, and is recognized as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami.","Mary Brickell (nee Bulmer) was born on February 20, 1836 in Little Bolton, Lancashire, England, to Joseph and Catherine Bulmer. She was the second oldest of five daughters, and one of six children. The family moved to Australia in 1839 and later purchased land in Albury in 1855.","Mary Bulmer married William Brickell (b. 1825) in Melbourne in 1862 and set sail for the United States as man and wife the next day. William and Mary arrived in New York in September 1862. The couple and their two children moved to Steubenville, Ohio and would settle in Cleveland in 1865. Mary would give birth to three more children in the next four years; two daughters and a son.","Due to a loss of finances, William wanted to move south and cited Mary's desire to live in a warmer climate. In 1870, he traveled to Florida and became attracted to its natural beauty and warm climate. In December 1871, Mary and the children joined William in the house he had built. The family was one of few white families in the Biscayne Bay area. William and Mary opened a trading post and post office on the south bank of the Miami River. Mary would often work in the trading post while William was away on business trips. The couple notably served Seminole Indians in the area, making fair trades and establishing long relationships.","William and Mary Brickell, along with Julia Tuttle, contributed their land to Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway. The railroad was a key factor in Miami's subsequent rapid growth. The City of Miami was incorporated on July 28, 1896 soon after the railroad opened; with Mary Brickell signing the founding documents. William Brickell saw his vision of a railroad in Miami accomplished, but died in 1908 not fully knowing the profits the land would bring. Mary Brickell would take up her husband's work and became a shrewd real estate developer and manager. Mary made land available incrementally as the city grew, in keeping with her vision of quality and architecturally-appealing homes.","As a woman in the male-dominated business realm, Mary Brickell was resented by many. She was considered controlling, though some admired her keen mind and business sense. Her work as a businesswoman led to the creation of Brickell Hammock (known as \"The Roads\"), Brickell Park, Brickell Avenue, and other locations. She was also generous with the citizens of Miami as well, giving interest-free loans to minorities and those who could not get loans from banks. Though many never repaid the loans, Mary took no action against them. In her time, she was a respected leader of the Miami community.","On her death on January 13, 1922, Mary Brickell was survived by her six children – Alice, William, Charles, Belle, Maude, and George. The loss was felt throughout the city at the time. Since her descendants did not promote Mary's work, historians credited the founding of Miami to Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler. It is only recently that her actions and role as a \"founding mother\" of the city of Miami have been publicly recognized.","Carmen Petsoules, a local historian, is known for reviving public interest in the Brickell family and campaigning successfully to have Mary Brickell officially recognized as a co-founder of Miami.","Carmen Petsoules (nee Mirta Vidal) was born in Havana, Cuba, on June 17, 1926. She became a secretary to an attorney after graduating from high school. While visiting Miami on holiday, she met James Emmanuel Petsoules. The two married and she moved to Miami and became a U.S. citizen. In 1968, the couple purchased a home in \"The Roads\" area. A neighbor, Rosemary Peacock, introduced her to the name of Mary Brickell and spoke of the things she did for Miami that no one seemed to remember.","Petsoules began researching Mary Brickell and collecting documents that belonged to the family. She was also responsible for finding the first photograph of Mary Brickell, where beforehand none were thought to exist. Petsoules moved from researching the Brickell family to campaigning for recognition of Mary Brickell's work. Her campaign efforts led to a bas-relief being installed on the Brickell Avenue Bridge depicting William and Mary Brickell and the preservation of land Mary Brickell donated for the purpose of a public park. In 2006, the city of Miami dedicated a plaque commemorating the sale of the land now known as \"The Roads,\" again the result of Petsoules' activism.","The city of Miami has also recognized Petsoules' efforts, with Mayor Stephen B. Clark declaring December 8, 1995 \"Carmen Petsoules Day.\"  In 1998, Carmen Petsoules was awarded the Henriette Harris Award by the Dade Heritage Trust, Miami's largest historic preservation organization. Petsoules hopes that her efforts will be continued by a new generation of historians.","Note written by Miriam Kashem","The collection consists of materials depicting the role of Mary Brickell as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami, Florida.

Oversize Material.","Mary Brickell (1836-1922) was a businesswoman, landowner, real estate developer, and is recognized as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami.","Mary Brickell (nee Bulmer) was born on February 20, 1836 in Little Bolton, Lancashire, England, to Joseph and Catherine Bulmer. She was the second oldest of five daughters, and one of six children. The family moved to Australia in 1839 and later purchased land in Albury in 1855.","Mary Bulmer married William Brickell (b. 1825) in Melbourne in 1862 and set sail for the United States as man and wife the next day. William and Mary arrived in New York in September 1862. The couple and their two children moved to Steubenville, Ohio and would settle in Cleveland in 1865. Mary would give birth to three more children in the next four years; two daughters and a son.","Due to a loss of finances, William wanted to move south and cited Mary's desire to live in a warmer climate. In 1870, he traveled to Florida and became attracted to its natural beauty and warm climate. In December 1871, Mary and the children joined William in the house he had built. The family was one of few white families in the Biscayne Bay area. William and Mary opened a trading post and post office on the south bank of the Miami River. Mary would often work in the trading post while William was away on business trips. The couple notably served Seminole Indians in the area, making fair trades and establishing long relationships.","William and Mary Brickell, along with Julia Tuttle, contributed their land to Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway. The railroad was a key factor in Miami's subsequent rapid growth. The City of Miami was incorporated on July 28, 1896 soon after the railroad opened; with Mary Brickell signing the founding documents. William Brickell saw his vision of a railroad in Miami accomplished, but died in 1908 not fully knowing the profits the land would bring. Mary Brickell would take up her husband's work and became a shrewd real estate developer and manager. Mary made land available incrementally as the city grew, in keeping with her vision of quality and architecturally-appealing homes.","As a woman in the male-dominated business realm, Mary Brickell was resented by many. She was considered controlling, though some admired her keen mind and business sense. Her work as a businesswoman led to the creation of Brickell Hammock (known as \"The Roads\"), Brickell Park, Brickell Avenue, and other locations. She was also generous with the citizens of Miami as well, giving interest-free loans to minorities and those who could not get loans from banks. Though many never repaid the loans, Mary took no action against them. In her time, she was a respected leader of the Miami community.","On her death on January 13, 1922, Mary Brickell was survived by her six children – Alice, William, Charles, Belle, Maude, and George. The loss was felt throughout the city at the time. Since her descendants did not promote Mary's work, historians credited the founding of Miami to Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler. It is only recently that her actions and role as a \"founding mother\" of the city of Miami have been publicly recognized.","Carmen Petsoules, a local historian, is known for reviving public interest in the Brickell family and campaigning successfully to have Mary Brickell officially recognized as a co-founder of Miami.","Carmen Petsoules (nee Mirta Vidal) was born in Havana, Cuba, on June 17, 1926. She became a secretary to an attorney after graduating from high school. While visiting Miami on holiday, she met James Emmanuel Petsoules. The two married and she moved to Miami and became a U.S. citizen. In 1968, the couple purchased a home in \"The Roads\" area. A neighbor, Rosemary Peacock, introduced her to the name of Mary Brickell and spoke of the things she did for Miami that no one seemed to remember.","Petsoules began researching Mary Brickell and collecting documents that belonged to the family. She was also responsible for finding the first photograph of Mary Brickell, where beforehand none were thought to exist. Petsoules moved from researching the Brickell family to campaigning for recognition of Mary Brickell's work. Her campaign efforts led to a bas-relief being installed on the Brickell Avenue Bridge depicting William and Mary Brickell and the preservation of land Mary Brickell donated for the purpose of a public park. In 2006, the city of Miami dedicated a plaque commemorating the sale of the land now known as \"The Roads,\" again the result of Petsoules' activism.","The city of Miami has also recognized Petsoules' efforts, with Mayor Stephen B. Clark declaring December 8, 1995 \"Carmen Petsoules Day.\"  In 1998, Carmen Petsoules was awarded the Henriette Harris Award by the Dade Heritage Trust, Miami's largest historic preservation organization. Petsoules hopes that her efforts will be continued by a new generation of historians.","Note written by Miriam Kashem","The collection consists of materials depicting the role of Mary Brickell as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami, Florida.

Oversize Material.","Mary Brickell (1836-1922) was a businesswoman, landowner, real estate developer, and is recognized as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami.","Mary Brickell (nee Bulmer) was born on February 20, 1836 in Little Bolton, Lancashire, England, to Joseph and Catherine Bulmer. She was the second oldest of five daughters, and one of six children. The family moved to Australia in 1839 and later purchased land in Albury in 1855.","Mary Bulmer married William Brickell (b. 1825) in Melbourne in 1862 and set sail for the United States as man and wife the next day. William and Mary arrived in New York in September 1862. The couple and their two children moved to Steubenville, Ohio and would settle in Cleveland in 1865. Mary would give birth to three more children in the next four years; two daughters and a son.","Due to a loss of finances, William wanted to move south and cited Mary's desire to live in a warmer climate. In 1870, he traveled to Florida and became attracted to its natural beauty and warm climate. In December 1871, Mary and the children joined William in the house he had built. The family was one of few white families in the Biscayne Bay area. William and Mary opened a trading post and post office on the south bank of the Miami River. Mary would often work in the trading post while William was away on business trips. The couple notably served Seminole Indians in the area, making fair trades and establishing long relationships.","William and Mary Brickell, along with Julia Tuttle, contributed their land to Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway. The railroad was a key factor in Miami's subsequent rapid growth. The City of Miami was incorporated on July 28, 1896 soon after the railroad opened; with Mary Brickell signing the founding documents. William Brickell saw his vision of a railroad in Miami accomplished, but died in 1908 not fully knowing the profits the land would bring. Mary Brickell would take up her husband's work and became a shrewd real estate developer and manager. Mary made land available incrementally as the city grew, in keeping with her vision of quality and architecturally-appealing homes.","As a woman in the male-dominated business realm, Mary Brickell was resented by many. She was considered controlling, though some admired her keen mind and business sense. Her work as a businesswoman led to the creation of Brickell Hammock (known as \"The Roads\"), Brickell Park, Brickell Avenue, and other locations. She was also generous with the citizens of Miami as well, giving interest-free loans to minorities and those who could not get loans from banks. Though many never repaid the loans, Mary took no action against them. In her time, she was a respected leader of the Miami community.","On her death on January 13, 1922, Mary Brickell was survived by her six children – Alice, William, Charles, Belle, Maude, and George. The loss was felt throughout the city at the time. Since her descendants did not promote Mary's work, historians credited the founding of Miami to Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler. It is only recently that her actions and role as a \"founding mother\" of the city of Miami have been publicly recognized.","Carmen Petsoules, a local historian, is known for reviving public interest in the Brickell family and campaigning successfully to have Mary Brickell officially recognized as a co-founder of Miami.","Carmen Petsoules (nee Mirta Vidal) was born in Havana, Cuba, on June 17, 1926. She became a secretary to an attorney after graduating from high school. While visiting Miami on holiday, she met James Emmanuel Petsoules. The two married and she moved to Miami and became a U.S. citizen. In 1968, the couple purchased a home in \"The Roads\" area. A neighbor, Rosemary Peacock, introduced her to the name of Mary Brickell and spoke of the things she did for Miami that no one seemed to remember.","Petsoules began researching Mary Brickell and collecting documents that belonged to the family. She was also responsible for finding the first photograph of Mary Brickell, where beforehand none were thought to exist. Petsoules moved from researching the Brickell family to campaigning for recognition of Mary Brickell's work. Her campaign efforts led to a bas-relief being installed on the Brickell Avenue Bridge depicting William and Mary Brickell and the preservation of land Mary Brickell donated for the purpose of a public park. In 2006, the city of Miami dedicated a plaque commemorating the sale of the land now known as \"The Roads,\" again the result of Petsoules' activism.","The city of Miami has also recognized Petsoules' efforts, with Mayor Stephen B. Clark declaring December 8, 1995 \"Carmen Petsoules Day.\"  In 1998, Carmen Petsoules was awarded the Henriette Harris Award by the Dade Heritage Trust, Miami's largest historic preservation organization. Petsoules hopes that her efforts will be continued by a new generation of historians.","Note written by Miriam Kashem","The collection consists of materials depicting the role of Mary Brickell as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami, Florida.

Oversize Material.","Mary Brickell (1836-1922) was a businesswoman, landowner, real estate developer, and is recognized as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami.","Mary Brickell (nee Bulmer) was born on February 20, 1836 in Little Bolton, Lancashire, England, to Joseph and Catherine Bulmer. She was the second oldest of five daughters, and one of six children. The family moved to Australia in 1839 and later purchased land in Albury in 1855.","Mary Bulmer married William Brickell (b. 1825) in Melbourne in 1862 and set sail for the United States as man and wife the next day. William and Mary arrived in New York in September 1862. The couple and their two children moved to Steubenville, Ohio and would settle in Cleveland in 1865. Mary would give birth to three more children in the next four years; two daughters and a son.","Due to a loss of finances, William wanted to move south and cited Mary's desire to live in a warmer climate. In 1870, he traveled to Florida and became attracted to its natural beauty and warm climate. In December 1871, Mary and the children joined William in the house he had built. The family was one of few white families in the Biscayne Bay area. William and Mary opened a trading post and post office on the south bank of the Miami River. Mary would often work in the trading post while William was away on business trips. The couple notably served Seminole Indians in the area, making fair trades and establishing long relationships.","William and Mary Brickell, along with Julia Tuttle, contributed their land to Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway. The railroad was a key factor in Miami's subsequent rapid growth. The City of Miami was incorporated on July 28, 1896 soon after the railroad opened; with Mary Brickell signing the founding documents. William Brickell saw his vision of a railroad in Miami accomplished, but died in 1908 not fully knowing the profits the land would bring. Mary Brickell would take up her husband's work and became a shrewd real estate developer and manager. Mary made land available incrementally as the city grew, in keeping with her vision of quality and architecturally-appealing homes.","As a woman in the male-dominated business realm, Mary Brickell was resented by many. She was considered controlling, though some admired her keen mind and business sense. Her work as a businesswoman led to the creation of Brickell Hammock (known as \"The Roads\"), Brickell Park, Brickell Avenue, and other locations. She was also generous with the citizens of Miami as well, giving interest-free loans to minorities and those who could not get loans from banks. Though many never repaid the loans, Mary took no action against them. In her time, she was a respected leader of the Miami community.","On her death on January 13, 1922, Mary Brickell was survived by her six children – Alice, William, Charles, Belle, Maude, and George. The loss was felt throughout the city at the time. Since her descendants did not promote Mary's work, historians credited the founding of Miami to Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler. It is only recently that her actions and role as a \"founding mother\" of the city of Miami have been publicly recognized.","Carmen Petsoules, a local historian, is known for reviving public interest in the Brickell family and campaigning successfully to have Mary Brickell officially recognized as a co-founder of Miami.","Carmen Petsoules (nee Mirta Vidal) was born in Havana, Cuba, on June 17, 1926. She became a secretary to an attorney after graduating from high school. While visiting Miami on holiday, she met James Emmanuel Petsoules. The two married and she moved to Miami and became a U.S. citizen. In 1968, the couple purchased a home in \"The Roads\" area. A neighbor, Rosemary Peacock, introduced her to the name of Mary Brickell and spoke of the things she did for Miami that no one seemed to remember.","Petsoules began researching Mary Brickell and collecting documents that belonged to the family. She was also responsible for finding the first photograph of Mary Brickell, where beforehand none were thought to exist. Petsoules moved from researching the Brickell family to campaigning for recognition of Mary Brickell's work. Her campaign efforts led to a bas-relief being installed on the Brickell Avenue Bridge depicting William and Mary Brickell and the preservation of land Mary Brickell donated for the purpose of a public park. In 2006, the city of Miami dedicated a plaque commemorating the sale of the land now known as \"The Roads,\" again the result of Petsoules' activism.","The city of Miami has also recognized Petsoules' efforts, with Mayor Stephen B. Clark declaring December 8, 1995 \"Carmen Petsoules Day.\"  In 1998, Carmen Petsoules was awarded the Henriette Harris Award by the Dade Heritage Trust, Miami's largest historic preservation organization. Petsoules hopes that her efforts will be continued by a new generation of historians.","Note written by Miriam Kashem","The collection consists of materials depicting the role of Mary Brickell as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami, Florida.

Oversize Material.","Mary Brickell (1836-1922) was a businesswoman, landowner, real estate developer, and is recognized as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami.","Mary Brickell (nee Bulmer) was born on February 20, 1836 in Little Bolton, Lancashire, England, to Joseph and Catherine Bulmer. She was the second oldest of five daughters, and one of six children. The family moved to Australia in 1839 and later purchased land in Albury in 1855.","Mary Bulmer married William Brickell (b. 1825) in Melbourne in 1862 and set sail for the United States as man and wife the next day. William and Mary arrived in New York in September 1862. The couple and their two children moved to Steubenville, Ohio and would settle in Cleveland in 1865. Mary would give birth to three more children in the next four years; two daughters and a son.","Due to a loss of finances, William wanted to move south and cited Mary's desire to live in a warmer climate. In 1870, he traveled to Florida and became attracted to its natural beauty and warm climate. In December 1871, Mary and the children joined William in the house he had built. The family was one of few white families in the Biscayne Bay area. William and Mary opened a trading post and post office on the south bank of the Miami River. Mary would often work in the trading post while William was away on business trips. The couple notably served Seminole Indians in the area, making fair trades and establishing long relationships.","William and Mary Brickell, along with Julia Tuttle, contributed their land to Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway. The railroad was a key factor in Miami's subsequent rapid growth. The City of Miami was incorporated on July 28, 1896 soon after the railroad opened; with Mary Brickell signing the founding documents. William Brickell saw his vision of a railroad in Miami accomplished, but died in 1908 not fully knowing the profits the land would bring. Mary Brickell would take up her husband's work and became a shrewd real estate developer and manager. Mary made land available incrementally as the city grew, in keeping with her vision of quality and architecturally-appealing homes.","As a woman in the male-dominated business realm, Mary Brickell was resented by many. She was considered controlling, though some admired her keen mind and business sense. Her work as a businesswoman led to the creation of Brickell Hammock (known as \"The Roads\"), Brickell Park, Brickell Avenue, and other locations. She was also generous with the citizens of Miami as well, giving interest-free loans to minorities and those who could not get loans from banks. Though many never repaid the loans, Mary took no action against them. In her time, she was a respected leader of the Miami community.","On her death on January 13, 1922, Mary Brickell was survived by her six children – Alice, William, Charles, Belle, Maude, and George. The loss was felt throughout the city at the time. Since her descendants did not promote Mary's work, historians credited the founding of Miami to Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler. It is only recently that her actions and role as a \"founding mother\" of the city of Miami have been publicly recognized.","Carmen Petsoules, a local historian, is known for reviving public interest in the Brickell family and campaigning successfully to have Mary Brickell officially recognized as a co-founder of Miami.","Carmen Petsoules (nee Mirta Vidal) was born in Havana, Cuba, on June 17, 1926. She became a secretary to an attorney after graduating from high school. While visiting Miami on holiday, she met James Emmanuel Petsoules. The two married and she moved to Miami and became a U.S. citizen. In 1968, the couple purchased a home in \"The Roads\" area. A neighbor, Rosemary Peacock, introduced her to the name of Mary Brickell and spoke of the things she did for Miami that no one seemed to remember.","Petsoules began researching Mary Brickell and collecting documents that belonged to the family. She was also responsible for finding the first photograph of Mary Brickell, where beforehand none were thought to exist. Petsoules moved from researching the Brickell family to campaigning for recognition of Mary Brickell's work. Her campaign efforts led to a bas-relief being installed on the Brickell Avenue Bridge depicting William and Mary Brickell and the preservation of land Mary Brickell donated for the purpose of a public park. In 2006, the city of Miami dedicated a plaque commemorating the sale of the land now known as \"The Roads,\" again the result of Petsoules' activism.","The city of Miami has also recognized Petsoules' efforts, with Mayor Stephen B. Clark declaring December 8, 1995 \"Carmen Petsoules Day.\"  In 1998, Carmen Petsoules was awarded the Henriette Harris Award by the Dade Heritage Trust, Miami's largest historic preservation organization. Petsoules hopes that her efforts will be continued by a new generation of historians.","Note written by Miriam Kashem","The collection consists of materials depicting the role of Mary Brickell as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami, Florida.

Oversize Material.","Mary Brickell (1836-1922) was a businesswoman, landowner, real estate developer, and is recognized as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami.","Mary Brickell (nee Bulmer) was born on February 20, 1836 in Little Bolton, Lancashire, England, to Joseph and Catherine Bulmer. She was the second oldest of five daughters, and one of six children. The family moved to Australia in 1839 and later purchased land in Albury in 1855.","Mary Bulmer married William Brickell (b. 1825) in Melbourne in 1862 and set sail for the United States as man and wife the next day. William and Mary arrived in New York in September 1862. The couple and their two children moved to Steubenville, Ohio and would settle in Cleveland in 1865. Mary would give birth to three more children in the next four years; two daughters and a son.","Due to a loss of finances, William wanted to move south and cited Mary's desire to live in a warmer climate. In 1870, he traveled to Florida and became attracted to its natural beauty and warm climate. In December 1871, Mary and the children joined William in the house he had built. The family was one of few white families in the Biscayne Bay area. William and Mary opened a trading post and post office on the south bank of the Miami River. Mary would often work in the trading post while William was away on business trips. The couple notably served Seminole Indians in the area, making fair trades and establishing long relationships.","William and Mary Brickell, along with Julia Tuttle, contributed their land to Henry Flagler and the Florida East Coast Railway. The railroad was a key factor in Miami's subsequent rapid growth. The City of Miami was incorporated on July 28, 1896 soon after the railroad opened; with Mary Brickell signing the founding documents. William Brickell saw his vision of a railroad in Miami accomplished, but died in 1908 not fully knowing the profits the land would bring. Mary Brickell would take up her husband's work and became a shrewd real estate developer and manager. Mary made land available incrementally as the city grew, in keeping with her vision of quality and architecturally-appealing homes.","As a woman in the male-dominated business realm, Mary Brickell was resented by many. She was considered controlling, though some admired her keen mind and business sense. Her work as a businesswoman led to the creation of Brickell Hammock (known as \"The Roads\"), Brickell Park, Brickell Avenue, and other locations. She was also generous with the citizens of Miami as well, giving interest-free loans to minorities and those who could not get loans from banks. Though many never repaid the loans, Mary took no action against them. In her time, she was a respected leader of the Miami community.","On her death on January 13, 1922, Mary Brickell was survived by her six children – Alice, William, Charles, Belle, Maude, and George. The loss was felt throughout the city at the time. Since her descendants did not promote Mary's work, historians credited the founding of Miami to Julia Tuttle and Henry Flagler. It is only recently that her actions and role as a \"founding mother\" of the city of Miami have been publicly recognized.","Carmen Petsoules, a local historian, is known for reviving public interest in the Brickell family and campaigning successfully to have Mary Brickell officially recognized as a co-founder of Miami.","Carmen Petsoules (nee Mirta Vidal) was born in Havana, Cuba, on June 17, 1926. She became a secretary to an attorney after graduating from high school. While visiting Miami on holiday, she met James Emmanuel Petsoules. The two married and she moved to Miami and became a U.S. citizen. In 1968, the couple purchased a home in \"The Roads\" area. A neighbor, Rosemary Peacock, introduced her to the name of Mary Brickell and spoke of the things she did for Miami that no one seemed to remember.","Petsoules began researching Mary Brickell and collecting documents that belonged to the family. She was also responsible for finding the first photograph of Mary Brickell, where beforehand none were thought to exist. Petsoules moved from researching the Brickell family to campaigning for recognition of Mary Brickell's work. Her campaign efforts led to a bas-relief being installed on the Brickell Avenue Bridge depicting William and Mary Brickell and the preservation of land Mary Brickell donated for the purpose of a public park. In 2006, the city of Miami dedicated a plaque commemorating the sale of the land now known as \"The Roads,\" again the result of Petsoules' activism.","The city of Miami has also recognized Petsoules' efforts, with Mayor Stephen B. Clark declaring December 8, 1995 \"Carmen Petsoules Day.\"  In 1998, Carmen Petsoules was awarded the Henriette Harris Award by the Dade Heritage Trust, Miami's largest historic preservation organization. Petsoules hopes that her efforts will be continued by a new generation of historians.","Note written by Miriam Kashem","The collection consists of materials depicting the role of Mary Brickell as one of the \"founding mothers\" of the city of Miami, Florida.

In 1911, he immigrated with his mother and two sisters to Philadelphia where his father had already found work and a place for the family to live. He quit school at the age of 14 and went to work as an errand boy at John Wanamaker's Department Store. Later he took stenographic courses at the Wharton Business School. He enlisted in the Army in 1917 and was stationed in France with the Ambulance Corp during World War I.\n When he returned to the U.S. in 1919 he became part of the steno pool for Mitten Management, which operated the transportation system in Philadelphia. Thomas Mitten, the President of the company, drew him out of the pool to be his personal secretary. His interest in people led Shaw to write fliers that were distributed to passengers on the trolleys and trains, his first public relations job. After Mr. Mitten's death, Shaw went to work for the Bell Telephone System, and remained a public relations executive with that company until he retired in 1959. Part of this job was to serve as liaison for the company in the production of the weekly classical music radio program \"The Bell Telephone Hour.\" Based on research he conducted, he also redesigned the Yellow Pages for New York City. He changed his name legally to John MacKay Shaw to distinguish himself from all the other John Shaws he had discovered. He chose MacKay in honor of his mother's uncle, the scholar, navigator, and teacher John MacKay of Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, Scotland.\n When his two children were young, Shaw read and sang to them often. He recited poetry, sang the old Glasgow drinking songs, Gilbert and Sullivan, and songs of the Gay Nineties. However, the children wanted to hear poems about them, not about other children. He promised to write them if they would provide the subjects for him to write about. Each year between 1933 and 1937, he collected the poems he had written that year and had them printed in pamphlets which he sent to friends at Christmas. Too soon the children outgrew the pleasures of poetry, but Shaw never did. Realizing that other fathers must have written poems for their children, he went looking for them in the second-hand bookstores. Thus began his collection of Childhood in Poetry.\n For thirty years, while continuing to work for the Bell System, John MacKay Shaw haunted the second-hand bookstores of Great Britain and the United States, poring over catalogs in the evenings, searching out and purchasing rare and first editions of poetry for, about, and by children. He studied the books, read and wrote about them and their authors, and discoursed extensively with other collectors and scholars. He became a member of the Grolier Club and the American Library Association.\n Upon retirement in 1959, Shaw gave his collection of almost 6,000 volumes to Florida State University (FSU) Libraries. For the next 25 years, Shaw went to the library daily to study, write, and talk about his books. He continued adding to his collection. FSU provided secretarial support. Jim Birchfield helped him as curator; later Fred Korn served in that capacity. Shaw was an active member of the St. Andrews Society, the Friends of the FSU Libraries, and the Presbyterian Church. He initiated the FSU Libraries' Scottish Collection in 1975 by a donation of 100 of his books. Other Scots donated books and ephemera too, not only to the Scottish Collection but to Childhood in Poetry, including former director of the New York Public Library, George Fraser Black. In 1967 and 1969, the Friends of the FSU Libraries published two hardcover illustrated volumes of the poems Shaw had written for his children: T he Things I Want: Poems for Two Children  (1967) and  Zumpin, More Poems for Two Children  (1969).\n All during his collecting years, as he discovered new material, Shaw typed information about it into the pages of his notebooks. He collected catalogs, articles, ads, and items other than reading material as well-- anything that related to childhood and poetry. He stored non-book items in labeled envelopes and folders as well as in his notebooks, and even in the books themselves. These items and the notes he kept for each book provided the source material for his 11-volume annotated bibliography,  Childhood in Poetry , which includes a keyword index to the poems as well. In addition to scholarly journal articles, Shaw published several monographs covering various categories of authors. He also gave talks to professional librarians and English teachers around the U.S. and read to children in the local schools.\n On the recommendation of Jim Walters of FSU's Department of Child Development, the FSU faculty awarded John MacKay Shaw the Doctor of Humane Letters degree on May 24, 1972. Shaw died in Tallahassee, FL on March 15, 1984.","John MacKay Shaw, in anticipation of his retirement in the late 1950s, sought a repository where he could continue to work on his Childhood in Poetry Collection and collect materials related to the building of that collection. Jacqueline Dupont, Florida State University alumna and friend of his daughter Cathmar, suggested FSU. In 1959, 6,000 volumes of the Childhood in Poetry Collection, along with its collector, came to FSU.","Some books from the John M. Shaw collection are available through the  FSU Digital Library .","In 1997, under the supervision of librarian Kathy Shelfer, students began organizing the piles, folders, and envelopes of loose materials that Shaw collected. These materials included articles, catalogs, serials, programs, and other items, as well as the notes Shaw wrote about the books and their authors. Under her supervision, students began making folders headed by authors' names and a few other headings Shaw had used. Cathmar Prange, John Shaw's daughter, assisted during the winter of 1997-98.\n In the winters of 1998-2000, Prange made folders and lists of the Shaw Life materials, writings by others, and his correspondence. Debra Rouse, a Special Collections Visiting Librarian, removed materials that Shaw had inserted in books, placed them in archival envelopes, and labeled them with the author, title of the item, and the title of the book in which they were discovered.\n In 2001, Shaw Notes materials were removed from non-archival envelopes and pam-binders, and filed in author folders. Prange, assisted by Garnett Avant, a Special Collections staff member, did minor preservation tasks (photocopying, stapling and taping) and sorted materials, copied labels made by Shaw into descriptive lists of individual items, and placed the items in appropriate folders.  She continued this process through 2004, adding to the lists and folders the materials that had been placed in envelopes. In 2003-2004, Delia Tam, a part-time retired library staff member, reviewed materials in the Shaw Notes boxes for typos and inconsistencies between Prange's lists and the box contents. Tam also shifted materials in boxes and on the box lists to accommodate everything that had been added since 1997.\n In 2004, Prange continued organizing and preparing detailed lists of the Shaw Notes folders, which was completed in 2005. In sorting these bibliography and source materials, she found items that could not be attributed to any particular author whose name Shaw had used as a heading in his original author arrangement scheme. The subjects of these items fell into six categories or themes: bibliography, biography, children, collecting, publishing, and writing. These themes, evident throughout the collection, became the headings for folders of non-author items. During the winter of 2004-05, she solved most of the problems that Tam had noted by rewriting and/or reorganizing materials in the Shaw Notes folders.\n From 2005-2007, Prange and Avant created a system for removal and tracking of additional items left in books, a process that continued through 2008. From 2007-2009, Prange completed and revised the storage and listing of Shaw Life materials, writings by others, and his correspondence begun in 2000, and wrote the finding aid's front matter. She, Altman, and graduate assistant Ginger H. Williams determined the intellectual arrangement of the collection. From 2008 to 2009, Altman and Williams created the EAD finding aid in NoteTab.","Wisconsin Historical Society, Madison, WI, USA.

In 1911, he immigrated with his mother and two sisters to Philadelphia where his father had already found work and a place for the family to live. He quit school at the age of 14 and went to work as an errand boy at John Wanamaker's Department Store. Later he took stenographic courses at the Wharton Business School. He enlisted in the Army in 1917 and was stationed in France with the Ambulance Corp during World War I.\n When he returned to the U.S. in 1919 he became part of the steno pool for Mitten Management, which operated the transportation system in Philadelphia. Thomas Mitten, the President of the company, drew him out of the pool to be his personal secretary. His interest in people led Shaw to write fliers that were distributed to passengers on the trolleys and trains, his first public relations job. After Mr. Mitten's death, Shaw went to work for the Bell Telephone System, and remained a public relations executive with that company until he retired in 1959. Part of this job was to serve as liaison for the company in the production of the weekly classical music radio program \"The Bell Telephone Hour.\" Based on research he conducted, he also redesigned the Yellow Pages for New York City. He changed his name legally to John MacKay Shaw to distinguish himself from all the other John Shaws he had discovered. He chose MacKay in honor of his mother's uncle, the scholar, navigator, and teacher John MacKay of Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, Scotland.\n When his two children were young, Shaw read and sang to them often. He recited poetry, sang the old Glasgow drinking songs, Gilbert and Sullivan, and songs of the Gay Nineties. However, the children wanted to hear poems about them, not about other children.

In 1911, he immigrated with his mother and two sisters to Philadelphia where his father had already found work and a place for the family to live. He quit school at the age of 14 and went to work as an errand boy at John Wanamaker's Department Store. Later he took stenographic courses at the Wharton Business School. He enlisted in the Army in 1917 and was stationed in France with the Ambulance Corp during World War I.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen he returned to the U.S. in 1919 he became part of the steno pool for Mitten Management, which operated the transportation system in Philadelphia. Thomas Mitten, the President of the company, drew him out of the pool to be his personal secretary. His interest in people led Shaw to write fliers that were distributed to passengers on the trolleys and trains, his first public relations job. After Mr. Mitten's death, Shaw went to work for the Bell Telephone System, and remained a public relations executive with that company until he retired in 1959. Part of this job was to serve as liaison for the company in the production of the weekly classical music radio program \"The Bell Telephone Hour.\" Based on research he conducted, he also redesigned the Yellow Pages for New York City. He changed his name legally to John MacKay Shaw to distinguish himself from all the other John Shaws he had discovered. He chose MacKay in honor of his mother's uncle, the scholar, navigator, and teacher John MacKay of Stornoway, Isle of Lewis, Scotland.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWhen his two children were young, Shaw read and sang to them often. He recited poetry, sang the old Glasgow drinking songs, Gilbert and Sullivan, and songs of the Gay Nineties. However, the children wanted to hear poems about them, not about other children. He promised to write them if they would provide the subjects for him to write about. Each year between 1933 and 1937, he collected the poems he had written that year and had them printed in pamphlets which he sent to friends at Christmas. Too soon the children outgrew the pleasures of poetry, but Shaw never did. Realizing that other fathers must have written poems for their children, he went looking for them in the second-hand bookstores. Thus began his collection of Childhood in Poetry.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eFor thirty years, while continuing to work for the Bell System, John MacKay Shaw haunted the second-hand bookstores of Great Britain and the United States, poring over catalogs in the evenings, searching out and purchasing rare and first editions of poetry for, about, and by children. He studied the books, read and wrote about them and their authors, and discoursed extensively with other collectors and scholars. He became a member of the Grolier Club and the American Library Association.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eUpon retirement in 1959, Shaw gave his collection of almost 6,000 volumes to Florida State University (FSU) Libraries. For the next 25 years, Shaw went to the library daily to study, write, and talk about his books. He continued adding to his collection. FSU provided secretarial support. Jim Birchfield helped him as curator; later Fred Korn served in that capacity. Shaw was an active member of the St. Andrews Society, the Friends of the FSU Libraries, and the Presbyterian Church. He initiated the FSU Libraries' Scottish Collection in 1975 by a donation of 100 of his books. Other Scots donated books and ephemera too, not only to the Scottish Collection but to Childhood in Poetry, including former director of the New York Public Library, George Fraser Black. In 1967 and 1969, the Friends of the FSU Libraries published two hardcover illustrated volumes of the poems Shaw had written for his children: T\u003cemph render=\"italic\"\u003ehe Things I Want: Poems for Two Children\u003c/emph\u003e (1967) and \u003cemph render=\"italic\"\u003eZumpin, More Poems for Two Children\u003c/emph\u003e (1969).\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAll during his collecting years, as he discovered new material, Shaw typed information about it into the pages of his notebooks. He collected catalogs, articles, ads, and items other than reading material as well-- anything that related to childhood and poetry. He stored non-book items in labeled envelopes and folders as well as in his notebooks, and even in the books themselves. These items and the notes he kept for each book provided the source material for his 11-volume annotated bibliography, \u003cemph render=\"italic\"\u003eChildhood in Poetry\u003c/emph\u003e, which includes a keyword index to the poems as well. In addition to scholarly journal articles, Shaw published several monographs covering various categories of authors. He also gave talks to professional librarians and English teachers around the U.S. and read to children in the local schools.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eOn the recommendation of Jim Walters of FSU's Department of Child Development, the FSU faculty awarded John MacKay Shaw the Doctor of Humane Letters degree on May 24, 1972. Shaw died in Tallahassee, FL on March 15, 1984.\u003c/p\u003e"]}]}}],"label":"Breadcrumbs"}}},"links":{"self":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/1ac81ef5e6623d4b183a7c01_aspace_82796"}},{"id":"1d5e7fdf6af1935d8a10c98f_aspace_88667","type":"File","attributes":{"title":"William Carleton, in D.C., to William Clarke, in N.Y., 6/7/1853","abstract_or_scope":{"id":"https://flvc.lyrasistechnology.org/catalog/1d5e7fdf6af1935d8a10c98f_aspace_88667#abstract_or_scope","type":"document_value","attributes":{"value":["\u003cp\u003eAn update from Carleton on newspaper friends.
