The school report card from 1925-1926 school year illustrates that the form for school reports has largely remained unchanged for the larger part of the 20^th century. The subjects, however, reflect the skills deemed necessary for the school students in that era and include Physiology, Mental Arithmetic, Bookkeeping, and Agriculture. This curriculum would equip a student living in the rural Nebraska (Harms family comes from Humboldt) with the skills necessary to find employment in the local enterprises and agriculture.</p> <p>Lena Harms was the eldest daughter of Edo and Emma Harms, German-Swiss Americans in Humboldt, Nebraska. Emma Harms's great-grandparents Gottlieb and Anna Schuetz came to Humboldt from Switzerland in 1870s and her both her grandmother and mother married emigrants from Germany.</p> <p>For interviews and oral histories of this and other items please visit the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/HistoryHarvest?feature=watch">History Harvest YouTube Channel</a>.</p> Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1925-1926 Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Richardson County (Neb.)

Rockenbach, a Written Story of Early Nebraska Farm Life Subject The topic of the resource Written History of Early Nebraska Description An account of the resource Book titled "A Flowering: A Festival: Writing and Storytelling Festival for Older Nebraskans. The story, "Grandpa Johnny" (p. 54-59), was written by Ronald M. Rockenbach in the 1970s and published on May 23, 1981 within this collection of works sponsored by the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, Division of Continuing Studies in Cooperation with the Nebraska Commission on Aging. About the story, Rockenbach said:<br /><br />"This is a story of rural life on my grandfather's farm. I first wrote this for an assignment for Paul Olson's 'Plains Literature' class in the late 1970s. A couple of years later I submitted this story for a workshop for older Nebraskans, either written or about them. The original assignment was to pick your most favorite grandparent and tell about them. It was a labor of love as his far was sanctuary from an absent, workaholic father and a physically, mentally, suesally [illegible, possibly sexually] and emotionally abusive mother that never wanted to be a suburban housewife in Papillion, for the next 33 years.<br /><br />It was a stout story to me and I asked my Shakespeare instructor, Robert Knoll to read it. I knew the descriptions exercised too many run-on sentences and alliteration that became more a test of tongue-twisters. Prof. Knoll said I had written a reminiscence, not a short story because my story lacked conflict. I simply did not include the abuse by my parents or the destruction of rural community I saw every waking day in suburban Papillion, or East Lincoln toward Eagle-Watton-Waverly. My style was influenced by Willa Cather's "My Antonia" about the richness of the prairie and the alternate time paragraphs by Faulkner's stream of conscienceness<em> (sic)</em>. Conflict and turmoil has a sequal witing from family and unfulfilled liberal issues awareness that never landed me work or a life."

Title A name given to the resource Warren Taylor Description An account of the resource Mr. Warren Taylor shared items from three distinct locations and time periods: a 1925 Business Guide produced by the Colored Commercial Club of Omaha, homestead documents from early twentieth century Wyoming, and artifacts from his ancestors’ enslavement in mid-nineteenth century Mississippi. A friend gave the Business Guide to Mr. Taylor, but the other two collections are family heirlooms. The Business Guide provides valuable insight into Jim Crow-era Omaha. The book illustrates that segregation between the black and white communities was able to exist without legal segregation codes. Mr. Taylor commented that a number of those businesses in the guide remained until the riots of 1968, after which a significant number closed their doors. The Homestead Act documents contain dated certificates of land registration and land deeds, as well as some other documents from Mr. Taylor’s paternal grandfather and granduncle, Russel Taylor and Otis Taylor, respectively. The brothers both homesteaded in Wyoming for a time, but moved back to Nebraska due to the inability to maintain livelihood with the poor soil of the region. Mr. Taylor’s family heirloom collection contains photographs of both a penny from 1840 and a cup owned by Mr. Taylor’s great-great-grandmother. Warren Taylor’s grandaunt created handwritten notes to accompany both artifacts, and have also been handed down to him. The notes themselves hold a great deal of meaning to his family, as Mr. Taylor’s grandaunt was the daughter of a formerly enslaved person, and learned to read and write in church, later becoming a church orator. This collections was contributed at the North Omaha History Harvest in 2011.

Title A name given to the resource Russel Taylor's Homestead Application, May 20, 1913 Description An account of the resource <p>Mr. Warren Taylor provided some homesteading documentation from his paternal grandfather, Russel Taylor. This is Russel Taylor's homestead application, approved for 160 acres of land near Cheyenne, Wyoming on May 20th, 1913. Wyoming had a large community of African American homesteaders, which was a motivation of Russel's to move. He hoped to farm the land, while also working as a school teacher. The land proved poor for farming, and Russel and his wife Henrietta later migrated to Omaha with a large portion of the African American community from Wyoming.</p> <p>For interviews and oral histories of this and other items please visit the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/HistoryHarvest"> History Harvest YouTube Channel.</a></p> Creator An entity primarily responsible for making the resource Russel Taylor Source A related resource from which the described resource is derived Warren Taylor, North Omaha History Harvest, 2011 Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1913-05-20 Coverage The spatial or temporal topic of the resource, the spatial applicability of the resource, or the jurisdiction under which the resource is relevant Cheyenne (Wyoming) Format The file format, physical medium, or dimensions of the resource document Language A language of the resource English Type The nature or genre of the resource image Rights Information about rights held in and over the resource This work is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
