Loammi Baldwin, 1780-1838, class of 1800, Harvard College, was a lawyer and later a civil engineer whose projects included canal construction and harbor improvement, railroads, water power projects, and city water supplies. He was in charge of the design and construction of dry docks at the Charlestown, Massachusetts, and Norfolk, Virginia, Navy Yards. His father (Loammi Baldwin, 1745-1807) was one of New England's first civil engineers, and his brothers, James Fowle Baldwin and George Rumford Baldwin, were railway and hydraulic engineers. The Baldwin family origins were in Woburn, Massachusetts. Loammi was an advocate of engineering education and took students into his office in Charlestown, where they had the use of his family's large library of engineering books, now part of the collection of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Libraries.
Loammi Baldwin was a civil engineer and constructed Fort Strong in Boston Harbor (1814), as well as the Union Canal in Pennsylvania (1821).
Civil engineer, lawyer, and author. Native of Massachusetts.
Loammi Baldwin received his education at Westford Academy and Harvard College, where he took his degree in 1800. His earliest technical interest was mechanics. While Baldwin wanted to enter a career in instrument-making, his frustration at the duration of a costly seven-year apprenticeship convinced him to study law instead. He moved to Groton, where he entered the preceptorship of Timothy Bigelow. In Groton, Baldwin designed and built the town's first fire-engine at the age of 22. The machine remained in the town's use for over eighty years.
Baldwin passed the bar exam in 1804, but abandoned law for civil engineering in 1807. To prepare to become a civil engineer, Baldwin traveled to Europe to study public works there and in England. On his return, he opened an office in Charlestown, Massachusetts, where he sold his expertise as an engineer of buildings and other civic work projects. In 1819, he took up employment by the City of Boston as an engineer of improvements. He concurrently assisted with public works projects in Virginia.
In 1821, Baldwin became engineer of the Union Canal, one of the largest engineering projects of the era. The project entailed extending the canal seventy-nine miles from Reading to Middletown, PA, and included building a 739-foot tunnel, three large dams, and an 800-acre artificial lake. One of the dams was to be the largest and strongest dams yet built in the United States. Despite the high caliber of his work, Baldwin resigned over a controversy surrounding the proposed width of the canal. After the work was completed, Baldwin's original proportions were found to be correct, and costly repairs had to be effected.
Baldwin continued to travel between the United States and Europe to study advances in civil engineering. In 1825, after a year in France studying public works, Baldwin joined the effort to erect the Bunker Hill Monument. He accepted the responsibility of determining the proportions of the shaft. Baldwin performed a demonstration before his fellow committee-members by taking them to the Roxbury Mill Dam, from where Bunker Hill was visible, and exhibiting the effects of various heights by affixing small models to the railing of the sidewalk so that, from the right distance, each would appear to rest on the hill. The committee estimated proportions based on that model.
Later in 1825, Baldwin was appointed by the Massachusetts State Legislature to survey the route for a proposed canal from Boston Harbor to the Hudson River and the Erie Canal. During the next seven years he designed and built, simultaneously, large masonry dry docks at the Charlestown, MA and Norfolk, VA navy-yards, both completed in 1833. These were works of great magnitude at the time because of the lack of power-driven machinery and the primitive character of many of the tools used. Pile-drivers were operated by treadmills, which many 'reputable workmen' felt was a violation of the American spirit. While on these works Baldwin made surveys for a third naval dry dock in New York Harbor, which was not built until after his death. He also designed and built buildings for Harvard College, a canal around the Ohio River falls, a stone bridge called the Warren Bridge at Charlestown, and the Harrisburg Canal in Pennsylvania.
In 1834 he published his Report on the Subject of Introducing Pure Water into the City of Boston, which listed all neighboring ponds and located all wells into the city as possible sources of supply. Two years later he published the elaborate Report on the Brunswick Canal and Railroad, Glynn County, GA, giving details of a proposed inland navigation system, including 900 miles on the Ocmulgee and Oconee Rivers. Another project for which he furnished complete plans was a 'marine railroad' from Pensacola, FL. He was a member of the Massachusetts state Executive Committee under Governor John Davis in 1835 and a presidential elector in 1836. About a year before he died he had a stroke of paralysis; a second one proved fatal. He died in 1838 at the age of 58 and was buried in Woburn, MA.

Baldwin family. Papers, 1784-1904, bulk 1820-1834.
Title:
Papers, 1784-1904, bulk 1820-1834.
Material reflects the professional activities of the Baldwins. The elder Loammi Baldwin's work on the Middlesex Canal is recorded in a volume of the history of the canal compiled from Baldwin's papers by his son, James Fowle. It contains a list of canal acts, subscribers, and building contracts along with a discussion of the progress of building from an early land survey to letters that consider the construction of canal boats. Letters from William Weston, also an engineer on the project, were copied into the volume. Notices of payment due dates and meeting times and places document Loammi Baldwin's involvement with the Charles River Bridge. Three of the manuscripts contain business accounts related to the construction of the Charlestown Naval Dry Docks between 1827-1834. The waste book (day book), ledger, and "accounts approved" volume all document building materials purchased, prices, and suppliers. Because Baldwin was superintendent of the entire project, other commodities that supported the project are also listed: office supplies, food and drink, hand tools, payroll, etc. Another manuscript deals with Loammi Baldwin, Jr.'s effort to upgrade Boston's water supply. Compiled by Eben A. Lester, it deals with wells in the city. Lester organized his work by street and then listed the name of the owner of the property, the number of wells on each lot, and the quality of the water. It offers information on Boston's pattern of settlement and commercial development. In a manuscript, "The Duke of Bridgewater's Coal Mines at Worseley, 1807," and a series of copies of letters in "stylographic manifold writers," Balwin recounts his experiences on a trip to England. While at Worseley, he journeyed by canal boat into mines, learned how the coal was mined, then brought to the surface, and finally transported to nearby Manchester. In letters, Loammi wrote about such topics as gas lighting, the London Bridge Water Works, and fire fighting in London as well as leisure activities. Two notebook sketchbooks kept by George Rumford record his travels throughout the 1820s and 1830s. The earlier volume includes a few illustrated essays (e.g. "Theory of canal cutting" and "Architecture"), but is mainly a long series of identified sketches, mostly in pen, with a few in watercolor of works and details of civil engineering as well as such objects as weathervanes, wheelbarrows, windmills, and fence posts. Several railways, a rotary pump, the original aqueduct over the Medford River, details of the Schuylkill Canal, and the Essex Bridge at Newburyport are among the places and projects depicted. The second volume is almost entirely filled with sketches in pen, pencil, ink wash, and 40 finished watercolors. The sketches include railroads, dams, canals, locks, bridges, buildings, monuments, etc. The identified locations include Savannah, Washington, Boston, various places in New England, upstate and western New York, and various places in Canada. These sketchbooks lend insight into the training and professional life of a civil engineer. Other volumes in the collection include an inventory of the estate of James Fowle Baldwin, consisting of his financial resources; a record of soundings at various places in Boston harbor in 1867 and 1868 by Benjamin D. Frost, an assistant to George Rumford; a pamphlet describing the gift of the Baldwin Library of Engineering Works to the Woburn Public Library (the material was subsequently transferred to Harvard); and a volume labeled "Cross Section Book." It opens with soundings and borings taken in 1867 and includes a number of diagrams depicting water systems and water flow and distribution.

Peale-Sellers family collection, 1686-1963
Title:
Peale-Sellers Family Collection, 1686-1963
The collection, divided into seven series, represents the careers and interests of the members of the Peale-Sellers family from the 1670s to 1960s. More than half is correspondence among various members of the families. The Peale family is best known as a family of artists; however, family interests and activities were much more wide-ranging. The best known Peale is Charles Willson Peale (1741-1827, APS 1786), who produced more than one thousand paintings, including hundreds of portraits of leading Americans during the colonial and early national periods. Peale was married three times, to Rachel Brewster (1744-1790), Elizabeth de Peyster (1765-1804), and Hannah More (1755-1821). He had eighteen children, eleven of whom reached adulthood. Three of Charles Willson Peale’s sons became artists: Raphaelle Peale (1774-1825), Rembrandt Peale (1778-1860), and Rubens Peale (1784-1865). A fourth son, Titian Ramsay Peale (1799-1885, APS 1833), was a naturalist (who made drawings on the exploring expeditions he accompanied) and pioneer in photography, and another son, Benjamin Franklin Peale (1795-1870), became a naturalist and paleontologist. Peale’s daughter Sophonisba Angusciola was married to Coleman Sellers (1781-1834), an inventor and manufacturer of machinery, including locomotives. Two of their sons, George Escol Sellers (1808-1899) and Coleman Sellers (1827-1907, APS 1872), were inventors and engineers. The latter served as director of the construction of the hydro-electric power development at Niagara Falls. He was married to Cornelia Wells Sellers (1831-1909). One of their grandsons was Charles Coleman Sellers (1903-1980, APS 1979), a librarian and historian and the author of several studies of the Peale family, including a Charles Willson Peale biography.

Rumford, Benjamin, Graf von, 1753-1814. Rumfordiana, 1775-[ongoing].
Title:
Rumfordiana, 1775-[ongoing].
The American Academy of Arts and Sciences owns a considerable number of papers and memorabilia pertaining to its early benefactor, Benjamin Thompson (Count Rumford) and his family: eight letters of the Count, one accepting membership and others dealing with his bequest to the Academy, including the original deed of his gift with his seal (15 February 1797). [This early material is stored at the Boston Athenaeum.] The remaining Rumfordiana is at the House of the Academy in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Included are: "Rumford Papers" bound in seven blue leather volumes. These are primarily papers of the Countess Rumford, although this collection should also contain Thirteen letters from the Count to Colonel Loammi Baldwin between 1775 and 1800; "Pictet Collection," bound in black leather volume. This consists of copies of 46 letters written by the Count to Marc Auguste Pictet during the period from 1796 to 1813. [The originals are in a private collection and unavailable to researchers.] This copy was made in 1871 and presented to the Academy in 1895 by Jules Marcon. The volume also contains one letter from Rumford's wife (Mme. Lavoisier), and one from his daughter; bound volume, containing six "Mémoires sur la Chaleur," presenté à l'Institut National par le conte de Rumford, n. d.; notebook, handwritten copy by A. Kruse of "Vollstandiger Bericht und Abrechnung von dem General-Leutenant Reichsgrafen von Rumford" [The original is deposited at the British Museum.]; and Joseph B. Walker's "A Paper on the Toryism of Count Rumford," Concord, New Hampshire, paperbound (1898). In addition, the Academy holds some material dealing with the Rumford Prize and the Prize Committee. The Rumford Prize was first awarded in 1839. Files relating to the awarding of the prize since 1945 and the change in the terms of the award can be found at the Cambridge House of the Academy.

Boston and Roxbury Mill Corporation. Records, 1794-1900.
Title:
Records, 1794-1900.
Records of the Boston and Roxbury Mill Corporation, which was incorporated in 1814 to build a dam across the tidal marsh lands of the Charles River in Boston in order to produce power for mills. The project was begun under the direction of engineer Uriah Cutting and completed by Laommi Baldwin. Later in the century, the Boston Water-Power Company separated from the Mill Corporation. The two companies arranged with the Commonwealth of Massachusetts to fill in the Mill Pond and develop the land known as the Back Bay section of Boston. Papers include deeds, writs, agreements, contracts, proposals, correspondence, and several boxes of bills and receipts. Correspondents include Cutting, Baldwin, Samuel Nicolson, George Bethune, William Whitwell, other Corporation officers, and Harrison Gray Otis. Bound volumes include account books, letterbooks, records of laborers, lists of stockholders, and minutes of Directors' meetings.

Title:
Baldwin family papers, ca. 1789-1836.
Father and son Loammi Baldwin, Sr. and Jr. were active in the Harvard community in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. This collection contains an assortment of student records, notes, and correspondence reflecting the involvement of Loammi Baldwin Sr. (1740-1807) as a parent, donor, and committee member, and the involvement of Loammi Baldwin Jr. (1780-1838), first as a member of the Class of 1800, and later as an active alumnus. The records are divided into three series: a note in Baldwin Sr.'s hand with calculations of the length of printed lines of all the volumes in the Harvard Library (Series I), correspondence between members of the Harvard community and the Baldwins (Series II), and student records that primarily record Baldwin Sr.'s payment for and authorization of his son's undergraduate education at the College. The correspondence is generally routine letters such as notifications of meetings at the College, and the collection does not contain information related to the Baldwins' involvement as civil engineers in Harvard's building projects. Of particular note, the student records--primarily quarter bills, receipts, and absence excuse notes--provide a window into the role of a parent in managing the financial and administrative aspects of a Harvard student's education in the late 18th century.

Vaughan, John, 1755-1841. Papers, 1768 - ca. 1936
Title:
John Vaughan papers, 1768 - Circa 1936
The collection of about 850 items covers the period from 1782 to c. 1936, with the bulk dating to the 1780s to 1840s. The collection is divided into four series. Series I contains correspondence relating to a wide variety of topics, including French and English politics, business, trade, religious matters, and personal affairs. Many of the items are letters of introduction. There is also information on John Vaughan’s immigration to America, Joseph Priestley, vaccines and inoculation (with Jefferson's comments on the same), Vaughan's business in Philadelphia, and the American Philosophical Society. Also included in this series are 2 boxes with copies of Vaughan correspondence as well as miscellaneous notes by E. W. Madeira, gathered in the course of his research on Vaughan in the 1930s. Series II consists of three volumes. Included are two of Vaughan's commonplace books. One, entitled, "J. Vaughan's book," May 17, 1779 (47 pp., in Latin; 870/L34), includes mostly Latin notations. The other commonplace book, dated 1783 (ca. 66 pp.; B V 462.c), includes comments on several prominent Americans, such as Benjamin Rush and David Rittenhouse, as well as American society generally. The third volume is a copybook with thirty letters spanning the period 1784 to 1801 (B V462.1). Series III includes material relating to Vaughan's administration of the estate of the Philadelphia merchant Samuel Merrick, 1796-1822 (Vaughan-Merrick Papers, B V462.m; 2 boxes). Series IV consists of correspondence between Vaughan and the DuPont Co. for which he served as agent (B V462.4; photocopies of 73 letters).

Topical pamphlet collection, <1741>-<1996>.
Title:
Topical pamphlet collection, <1741>-<1996>.
A long-established, artificial, still-growing collection consisting largely of printed pamphlets, with articles, reprints, some ephemera, typescripts, photocopied manuscript material, and one set of slides (to accompany a typescript item) also included. Some of the items within were bound during the 19th century, some are loose. Covering a broad range of topics relating to American (and particularly New England) history, life, and thought, the Topical Pamphlet Collection provides background and context for the more specifically Concord-related materials in the Concord Free Public Library Special Collections. The collection--not to be confused with the Concord Pamphlet Collection--includes <883> items, dating from <1741> to <1996>. Series I (Historical Topics) includes <352> items dating between <1741> and <1996>, Series II (Individuals, As Author or Subject) <300> items between <1761> and <1963>, Series III (Massachusetts Towns--History, Anniversaries, Description, etc.) <127> items between <1748> and <1991>, and Series IV (Pamphlet Materials on Multiple Topics, Organized by Form) <104> items between <1752> and <1940>. Some of the bound volumes include the occasional out-of-scope pamphlet. Moreover, there is some topical overlap of material in different subseries.
