Fred Kniffen's Contributions to Understanding French Louisian
Fred Kniffen's contributions to a better understanding of French Louisiana are many and varied. As a student of culture, he soon after his arrival in Louisiana recognized the uniqueness found in the state's French area. He was always an outsider looking in on the French people and their ways, and as such he could see the unique and different traits of their culture. Kniffen was never judgmental, and enjoyed the uniqueness of the culture. Although…

Death out of State: Arizonans who die Elsewhere
Many individuals in America die in distant states, sometimes quite far from what is considered their residence. This study employs an analysis of death certificates in order to explore the geography of death away from home. The state of Arizona, 807 residents of which died out-of-state in 1984, is used as a case study. This study reveals that most out-of-state deaths did not occur randomly around the United States, but rather occurred in adjacent…
Use of Hoop Nets in the Mississippi River Basin
The use of hoop nets is an old method of taking fish in the Mississippi River system, dating back to the 1860s. Since its introduction, the hoop net has been the single most important fishing tool in these inland waters. Hoop nets are successful for two reasons: 1) they are very efficient at catching fish, and 2) they are ideally suited to the needs of the individual fisherman along rivers. Hoop nets also can be used in many different environment…

Returning Home: The Interstate Transportation of Human Remains
Many people who die in the United States are transported across state boundaries for burial at a place viewed as “home” by the decedent or the next of kin. This article employs an analysis of data from death certificates to explore the transportation of human remains from Arizona where, in 1983, 17.1 percent of those who died were shipped beyond the state. A sample of 783 removals reveals a predominant geographical pattern of flows to the Upper M…

The Georgia-South Carolina Boundary: A Problem in Historical Geography
Attempts to Establish and Change a Western Boundary
The Arizona-Utah boundary follows 37° north latitude. This boundary is a good example of how a Western boundary was established, and, once it had been drawn, what techniques were used to have it changed. Western boundaries were drawn by Eastern congressmen who had little understanding of the physical and cultural geography of the area, and, for the sake of convenience, usually used lines of longitude and latitude as boundaries. These congressmen …
