First is a collage of various pictures from my trip, second a video of the overlook of the Pyrite Mine while I give a short history, and third a picture of an informative display in the visitors center of the park. Narrative Use this field to attach your narrative about the site. Through this sight a story of growth and change can be clearly seen. This place has fostered a recreation area that is still in use today. It is significant because it shows that what the cultural new deal set out to do succeeded. FDR didn’t have some pipe dream. I used my Phone, because it was the easiest to carry with me to the overlook. Modern technology provides an easier form of narrative story telling, and lets us distribute for the world we see. However, the modern times still use photographs same as the 1930’s used to document the CCC’s Park.

Title A name given to the resource New Deal Sites Place-Based Stories Use this item type for your second skill assignment, in which you will document New Deal-era sites through image, sound, and text. Date Include the date of your project here. October 10, 2019 Format Describe the format of the file(s) included in this item. Video of Location. Stills of Historical Marker and Info plaque. Stills of A.M Fitzhugh Will and Ravensworth Deed to Mary Randolph Custis Lee. (Mrs. Robert E. Lee) HABS produced plat of site Narrative Use this field to attach your narrative about the site. I chose the Ravensworth Stables and House site located in Springfield, Virginia. The Ravensworth Estate was owned by the Fitzhughs. Anne Marie Fitzhugh was the Aunt of Mrs. Robert E. Lee, the latter spent much of the civil war in this “Safe Haven”. When Fitzhugh departed this life in 1877, Mary Randolph Custis Lee, Mrs. Robert E Lee, inherited Ravensworth. During the New Deal there era a lesser known project was the Historic American Buildings Survey, or HABS. It was their mission to document every historical building in the country. Because of this New Deal project we have vast documentation for buildings that are now long gone, lost to time. HABS was very active during the new deal and continued to document historic buildings in a continuation into the 1960’s and 70’s. Thanks to new technology and digital databases the Library of Congress has digitized much of the information HABS collected. What was once just collected in boxes is now available online for researchers all over the world. The pictures added here are part of their collection. I have also included present day pictures of the area where Ravensworth was located. Since nothing currently remains except the historical marker I wanted to find a way to include more information. I was able to find Fairfax County’s copy of the deed for Ravensworth showing Mary Ranpdolph Custis Lee’s inheritance as well as their copy of Fitzhugh’s will. Unfortunately so many New Deal sites are nothing more than a blip on an interactive map, so it is wonderful that Ravensworth has a historic marker and documents that relate to this interesting place will endure.

Photograph - Samsung Note 10+ - Digital Image - jpg Sound - Samsung Note 10+ - Audio Recording - wav The first picture shows the site. We can see how peaceful the site is but we can imagine that it was a busy place back in 1939. The second one is part of the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal. Trees fell in the canal. It is not well maintained anymore. Currently, questions can be raised about the interest of this canal and its allocated budget. The sound track was recorded on site and helps us imagine both the current and past atmosphere. Narrative Use this field to attach your narrative about the site. What is nowadays known under the name of “Carderock Picnic Pavilion” was actually a working camp “NP-2-Md.” in 1939. The project was led by the CCC (Civilian Conservation Corps) who enrolled 200 workers to rehabilitate the Chesapeake and Ohio Canal. Under the New Deal, programs like this brought the economy up by giving jobs and maintaining public infrastructures. Enrollees were paid $30 per month of which $25 would be sent to their home. I decided to use my smartphone. Indeed, I could record sounds and take picture with it. In the 1930s, machines (engraver, recorder, cameras) were heavy and hard to transport. Thanks to a smartphone, you could walk along the canal, find the pavilion and be ready to catch the perfect instants of life in the surroundings. In the 1930s, people could not share information and communicate as we do today. Indeed, smartphones are connected to social networks, so you can share your experience in direct time with anyone in the world. The process of collecting records is the same than in the 1930s. Indeed, creating a documentary now or then required to collect artifacts, take pictures, record sound, and film. We all want to share an experience, bring emotion to the audience, remind them of the past, and build a future. We all try to bring our senses to work, from a smell, a sound, an image, and by the touch, to recall moments of history.
