Brookline@Home: Ken Sacharin maps out New York City's past

Susie Davidson / brookline@wickedlocal.com
If Ken Sacharin s mapping project is as entertaining as he is, it s worth a download for that alone.
After all, his tagline reads If you re not part of the solution, you re in colloidal suspension.
A Memphis native, Sacharin s parents were married in Memphis by Elvis Presley s upstairs landlord in the late 1940s. Their rabbi owned the house, and rented the bottom unit to the Presleys, he explained. Elvis was a Shabbos Goy sometimes.
The King even paid one of Sacharin s schoolmates to play racquetball with him at Graceland, Sacharin recalled.
By his own admission, however, none of this explains why Sacharin is qualified to sift and geo-tag Manhattan s past. I m not, really, he maintains. But I have a lot of time on my hands. ....

HELENA â Several Montana landmarks are coming under scrutiny for being named after the man who led southern states against the United States of America during the Civil War.
The Montana Racial Equity Project, the Montana Human Rights Network, Forward Montana Foundation, Mai Wah Society, Montana Wilderness Association, The Wilderness Society and the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes (CSKT) jointly submitted a petition to the U.S. Board of Geographic Names asking it to rename three geographic features in Montana currently named after Jefferson Davis, the president of the Confederate States of America. ....

Davis, Varina (1826–1906) – Encyclopedia Virginia

SUMMARY
Varina Howell Davis was the second wife of Confederate president Jefferson Davis and the First Lady of the Confederacy during the American Civil War (1861–1865). She was manifestly ill-suited for this role because of her family background, education, personality, physical appearance, and her fifteen-year antebellum residence in Washington, D.C. (She once declared that the worst years of her life were spent in the Confederate capital at Richmond while the happiest were in Washington.) A native of the urban South, she always preferred the city to the country, and after her husband died in 1889, she moved to New York, where she resided until her death in 1906. ....

The Remarkable Journey of Elizabeth Keckly – Encyclopedia Virginia

Few stories in
Encyclopedia Virginia are more dramatic than that of Elizabeth Hobbs Keckly. Born into slavery in Dinwiddie Courthouse, in the Piedmont region of Virginia, during the presidency of James Monroe, by the time that Abraham Lincoln entered the White House in 1861, not only was Keckly a free woman, but she was also Washington, D.C.’s most celebrated dressmaker.
It was Keckly’s talent with the needle that allowed her to buy her freedom and become a leader among the free Black community in Washington. She first found a following among Washington’s elite women after a silk dress she designed for Mary Randolph Custis Lee, the wife of Robert E. Lee, was a big hit at a reception for the Prince of Wales. It was a time when upper class women were fiercely competitive about the dresses they wore to balls and teas and receptions. It may seem like all vanity now, the hoop skirts with their ruffles and flounces and the yards of lace and other trim that bedecke ....

Keckly, Elizabeth Hobbs (1818–1907) – Encyclopedia Virginia

SUMMARY
Elizabeth Hobbs Keckly was born enslaved in Dinwiddie County in 1818. For more than thirty-seven years, she labored for three different branches of the Armistead Burwell family. At fourteen, she began ten years of bondage in the household of Burwell’s eldest son, a minister in Hillsborough, North Carolina, where she endured repeated physical abuse and sexual assaults and eventually gave birth to a son. Sent back to Virginia, she was enslaved in the household of Anne Burwell Garland and her husband, Hugh Garland. In 1847, Garland moved his household to St. Louis. By then a skilled seamstress, Keckly was hired out as a dressmaker to support the impoverished family. After several years of negotiations, Garland agreed to Keckly’s proposal to buy her and her son’s freedom. Keckly married James Keckly, with whom she lived in St. Louis for eight years. In 1860, Keckly left her husband and moved to Washington, D.C., where she established herself as a seamstress to the ca ....
