The French Parish and Survivance in Nineteenth-Century New England
The role of the Roman Catholic parish in the development and preservation of French-Canadian immigrant communities in New England. From the author: "...this discussion of the religious aspects of [French-Canadian] immigration will be centered upon the parish, and upon the three-fold concept of preservation of religion, language, and customs which is contained for French Canadians in the word 'survivance.' The first half of the century, which might be called the dark ages of the French Canadians in New England, will be passed over rather rapidly, in order to do fuller justice to the more significant mission period from 1850 to 1868, and to the period of expansion and conflict from 1869 to 1900."Tags Ashuelot NH, Berlin NH, Biddeford ME, Boston MA, Brookfield NH, Burlington VT, Central Falls RI, Colebrook NH, Community: Customs and Social Life, Fall River MA, Fitchburg MA, Gardner MA, Government and Politics, Grafton MA, Haverhill MA, Holyoke MA, Labor History, Lawrence MA, Lewiston ME, Littleton NH, Lowell MA, Lynn MA, Madawaska ME, Maine, Manchester NH, Mills and Mill Work, Montréal QC, Nashua NH, New Braintree MA, New England, New Hampshire, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- Religion, North Adams MA, Oxford NH, Pawtucket RI, Pittsfield MA, Providence RI, Putnam CT, Québec, Religion, Rhode Island, Rochester NH, Rutland VT, Salem MA, Southbridge MA, Spencer MA, Springfield MA, St. Albans VT, Suncook NH, Swanton VT, Taunton MA, Van Buren ME, Vermont, Warren NH, Waterbury CT, Waterville ME, Willimantic CT, Winooski VT, Woonsocket RI, Worcester MA -

The General Textile Strike of 1934 : From Maine to Alabama
An account of 1934's nationwide textile strike in the United States. The trend of unionization that preceded the strike, and the strike's lasting impact on labor and industry in the United States. A specific focus on the impact of this strike in the industrial pockets of the New England states - often overshadowed by the arguably more widespread effect of labor unrest on life and industry in the American South. Includes a case study of Burlington, North Carolina, and the textile mills of Burlington Industries. From University of Missouri Press: "In January 1933, the United Textile Workers of America was in danger of collapse. Its membership was no larger than 15,000; its attempts to organize southern workers had failed disastrously; and it was constantly under attack from rival organizations. Yet, barely eighteen months later, with 300,000 dues-paying members, with newly established or revived branches covering southern cotton textile workers, as well as northern woolen and worsted workers, silk and jacquard weavers, dyers and finishers, even rayon workers, and with locals in 208 cities, towns, and mill villages, UTW was about to embark on what one historian has termed 'the greatest single industrial conflict in the history of American labor.' 'The General Textile Strike of 1934' is the story of that conflict....In 'The General Textile Strike of 1934,' John Salmond tells everyone's story. Looking at the strike from a national and an industrywide perspective, Salmond explains why workers were willing to risk protesting and describes the differences and similarities between southern and northern workers. Setting the strike within a New Deal context and focusing on its impact on the future of labor relations in the industry and on the lives of those who participated in it, 'The General Textile Strike of 1934' fills an important gap in American labor history."Tags Alabama, Augusta ME, Biddeford ME, Burlington NC, Burlington VT, Business and Economics, Community: Customs and Social Life, Connecticut, Danielson CT, Dighton MA, Easthampton MA, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Fall River MA, Georgia, Government and Politics, Greenville SC, Hogansville GA, Irish Americans, Italian Americans, Labor History, Lawrence MA, Lewiston ME, Ludlow MA, Maine, Massachusetts, Mills and Mill Work, New Bedford MA, New England, New Hampshire, Newman GA, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- Economic and Industrial, Nonfiction -- History -- Labor and Social, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Philadelphia PA, Polish Americans, Portuguese Americans, Putnam CT, Rhode Island, Saco ME, Saylesville RI, Scottish Americans, Social History, South Carolina, Tennessee, Vermont, Violence, Virginia, Willimantic CT, Woonsocket RI -

The Franco-Americans of New England : Dreams and Realities
English translation of Yves Roby's "Les Franco-Américains de la Nouvelle-Angleterre: Reêves et réalités" - a comprehensive historical text on French Canada's immigrants to New England and their development of a Franco American identity. Covers the period from 1840 (or near the beginning of en masse Canadian emigration) to 1976. One of the most exhaustive texts on Franco Americans to date, Roby's work focuses its attention largely on "la survivance" and the prevailing, evolving attitudes toward it in New England. Roby writes, "This work will attempt to describe the conceptions that the French-Canadian emigrants in New England and their descendants have of themselves." From McGill-Queen's University Press: "Between 1840 and 1930, approximately 900,000 people left Quebec for the United States, with the number of French-Canadian colonies in New England's industrial cities growing rapidly. The first generation of immigrants, who considered themselves French Canadians living in the United States, lived outside of American society as much as possible and sought to recreate their lost motherland. Their children's situation was different, however, since they did not see themselves as a community creating a distinct society on American soil.... What became of these millions of immigrant descendants?... Roby seeks to explain the genesis and evolution of this group and raises insightful questions regarding not only the Franco-Americans but also the integration of ethnocultural groups into Canadian society and the future of North American Francophonies."Tags Adams MA, Bedford NH, Berlin NH, Beverly MA, Boston MA, Bristol CT, Burlington VT, Business and Economics, Cambridge MA, Central Falls RI, Champlain NY, Chelsea MA, Chicopee MA, Community: Customs and Social Life, Criticism and Review, Danielson CT, Emigration and Immigration, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Farming and Agriculture, Forestry, Gardner MA, Gloucester MA, Haverhill MA, Language and Linguistics, Ludlow MA, Lynn MA, Maine, Massachusetts, Meriden CT, Nashua NH, New England, New Hampshire, Newton MA, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- General, North Adams MA, North Brookfield MA, Ogdensburg NY, Pittsfield MA, Plattsburgh NY, Portland ME, Prince Edward Island, Providence RI, Putnam CT, Québec, Religion, Rhode Island, Salem MA, Southbridge MA, Spencer MA, Springfield MA, St. Albans VT, Suncook NH, Vermont, Waltham MA, Ware MA, Warwick RI, Waterbury CT, Westerly RI, Willimantic CT -
Les Franco-Américains de la Nouvelle-Angleterre : reêves et réalités
Un texte historique complet sur les immigrants canadiens français dans la Nouvelle Angleterre, et la développement d'un indentité franco-américain aux ètats-Unis. Reportage de la période entre 1840 et 1980. Un des textes le plus bien connu, aussi que le plus exhaustif, sur ce sujet jusqu'à aujourd'hui. Pour Roby, l'idée le plus important qui est souligné dans son étude entier, c'est la question de "la survivance" vers le siiècle dernier. De Septentrion: "Yves Roby a consacré 30 ans de recherche et de réflexion à ce sujet et nous trace un portrait éclairant sur le processus d'évolution de l'identité de ces émigrés et de leurs familles en sol américain.En effet, si les premiières vagues ont maintenu tant bien que mal leur héritage, s'identifiant comme Canadiens français vivant aux ètats-Unis, il faut se demander ce qu'il en est devenu des millions de leurs descendants aujourd'hui appelés Franco-Américains ? Décrire les représentations que ces Québécois émigrés en Nouvelle-Angleterre et leur descendance se font d'eux-mêmes, tel est l'objet de cet ouvrage."Tags Adams MA, Bedford NH, Berlin NH, Beverly MA, Boston MA, Bristol CT, Burlington VT, Business and Economics, Cambridge MA, Central Falls RI, Champlain NY, Chelsea MA, Chicopee MA, Community: Customs and Social Life, Criticism and Review, Danielson CT, Emigration and Immigration, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Farming and Agriculture, Forestry, Gardner MA, Gloucester MA, Haverhill MA, Language and Linguistics, Ludlow MA, Lynn MA, Meriden CT, Nashua NH, New England, Newton MA, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- General, North Adams MA, North Brookfield MA, Ogdensburg NY, Pittsfield MA, Plattsburgh NY, Portland ME, Prince Edward Island, Providence RI, Putnam CT, Québec, Religion, Salem MA, Southbridge MA, Spencer MA, Springfield MA, St. Albans VT, Suncook NH, Waltham MA, Ware MA, Warwick RI, Waterbury CT, Westerly RI, Willimantic CT -
One Piece in the Great American Mosaic : The Franco-Americans of New England
Essay written in 1976, "in the spirit of the [United States'] Bicentennial," recognizing the Franco Americans as a distinct and significant ethnic group in American history. The 38-page piece begins its observations at the 1524 French explorations of North America, from where it moves into New France, to rural life in Quebec and the revolutionary war in the US, and into the hundred years of French Canadian community development in immigrant New England. For this author, the history of the United States, Quebec, and France converge on the Franco Americans of the New England states. The text concludes with a list of "Who's Who" among Franco Americans, as well as a bibliography of relevant resources.

From French Canadian to Franco-American : Cultural Survival and Reinvention of Nationality in a Connecticut Yankee Town, 1855-1895
From Fluet: "This dissertation...focuses on the immigrant French Canadians who maintained their cultural identity and embraced American nationality in the Connecticut Yankee town of Putnam in the period of 1855-1895. Few community studies exist for Connecticut in this period of rapid change and industrialization. Northeastern Connecticut, which witnessed the disappearance of Yankee homogeneity, remains unexamined. Putnam, with its large immigrant population, is representative of the area, and of many other smaller mill towns in the northeastern United States, and permits a glimpse of the process whereby French Canadians became Franco-Americans....Three questions drive the inquiry. The first question involves overarching issues of change and inherent community tensions and problems: how did Putnam move from a Connecticut Yankee town to a diverse city? Second, how did the immigrant French Canadians maintain their mentality of la survivance while participating in debates critical to the development of the Putnam community? Third, how did the French Canadian presence in Putnam help to broaden the very meaning of what it meant to be American in the mind of the community?"Tags Acculturation and Assimilation, Brooklyn CT, Community: Customs and Social Life, Connecticut, Criticism and Review, Emigration and Immigration, Ethnicity and Collective Identity, Government and Politics, Labor History, Language and Linguistics, Mills and Mill Work, New England, Nonfiction, Nonfiction -- History -- Labor and Social, Putnam CT -
