United States Geography in the Early Republic - MASSACHUSETTS Massachusetts Towns and Cities: Amesbury Just north of the Merrimack River , in Essex County , at the far north of Massachusetts. Amhurst In Hampshire County, about 7 miles northeast of Northhampton . Birthplace of Silas Wright , prominent member of the Albany Regency in NY from the 1820s to the 1840s. Amhurst College was founded there in 1821 and incorporated in 1825. Andover Small town around 25 miles north of Boston, in western Essex County , where a religiously conservative school was established in reaction against the liberalization of Harvard (which became a Unitarian institution early in the 19th century). Attleborough Located a few miles SE of the NE corner of Rhode Island. Birthplace of Jonathan and Virgil Maxcy Beverly In Essex County , a couple of miles north of Salem Boston It it difficult, and will take quite some time, to do justice to Boston, of course. In the early 1800s, it was the intellectual capital of the U.S. It has one of the finest harbors on the east coast. Originally, it was almost an island, connected to the mainland by "Boston neck", a strip just wide enough for one road (one of the reasons it could hold out so long in its rebellion against the English). Over the years, the neck was widened until it became wider than the "head" attached to it. Part of this filling-in process created the Back Bay. See Whitehill, Boston, A Topographical History

71. National Geography Bee Champ To Visit UConn preparing for college. The Guilford native will visit the Universityof connecticut's geography department on Tuesday, July 18. http://www.news.uconn.edu/rel00111.htm

This is an archived news article. For the latest UConn News, click here. Office of University Communications: (860) 486-3530 National Geography Bee champ to visit UConn (Released: 7/13/00) By Allison Thompson, Office of University Communications After Peng's geography bee win in May, geography Professor and Department Head Dean Hanink wrote a letter congratulating Peng. He also invited the teen to visit if he was in the area, an offer Peng excitedly accepted. During his visit, Peng is scheduled to tour the department, the Map and Geographic Information Center located in Homer Babbidge Library and the Geographic Information Systems Lab. Hanink and others in the geography department are looking forward to Peng's upcoming visit. "We're happy as a community of geographers to have such a well-known geographer be part of UConn, even if only for a day," Hanink says. In order to win the bee, Peng had to beat out millions of competitors. The geography bee starts with about 5 million students nationwide who take written geography tests. The winners of the local championships go to state championships. Representatives from the 50 states and five territories go to the national bee. Those 55 competitors are reduced to 10 finalists. Ultimately, only two of those 10 make it to the championship round. Hanink applauds the bee for getting children interested in geography.

- Browse By : - LETTER TOPIC BY KEYWORD: Ohio lands were surveyed and sold by the federal government, private individuals, and by two other states, Virginia and Connecticut. Since parts of the state were surveyed at different times, Ohio was divided into areas called survey "districts" or "land grants." 1. Michigan Survey 2. Congress Lands (1820) 3. Fire Lands 4. Connecticut Western Reserve 5. Congress Lands (1819) 6. Congress Lands 7. Congress Lands 8. Between the Miamis 9. Symmes' Purchase 10. Virginia Military District 11. Congress Lands 12. French Grant 13. Ohio Company Purchase 14. Donation Tract 15. Seven Ranges 16. U.S. Military District 17. Refugee Tract Virginia Military District In 1770, Virginia had claimed part of the area that became Ohio. Virginia established the Military Reserve between the Scioto and Miami Rivers. These lands were available to veterans of the Virginia and Maryland Militias who had served during the American Revolution . These lands were passed out using the older survey procedures of Virginia, and they were not always fair to every veteran. Because of this, many new landowners learned that they were not the only ones who owned their land. Other veterans "owned" the same piece of land, and landowners were forced to go to court to have a judge decide who the true owner was. After Virginia gave out the land that its veterans wanted, it turned over the unclaimed lands to the United States government. In 1852 and 1871, these lands were turned over to the State of Ohio.

NEWARK BASIN AND CONNECTICUT RIVER BASIN The Palisades rise above the western edge of the Hudson River. The Palisades mark the eastern margin of the Newark Basin in Northern New Jersey. The George Washington Bridge and Midtown Manhattan are in the distance. The Newark Basin (in New Jersey and Pennsylvania) and the Connecticut River Basin are both "aborted rift" basins (rift basins that are no longer actively widening via rift-style tectonism - see map below). Both basins contain characteristic sedimentary sandstones and mudrocks that usually bear a red or brownish appearance from an abundance of iron oxide minerals (hematite and limonite). (Homes built of stone from the Newark Basin are called "brownstones.") Fossils are not abundant, but early Mesozoic dinosaur skeletons and trackways have been found. Freshwater shell material and poorly preserved fish and plant remains are also found in some areas. Formation of the Newark Basin and Early Atlantic Basin Both the Newark and Connecticut river basins contain "traprocks." Traprocks are mineral-rich mafic volcanic rocks. Their resistance to erosion (relative to the surrounding sandstone and shale produce elevated regions above the surrounding terrain. They form the core of gently dipping cuestas throughout the Mesozoic basins along the Atlantic Margin. The volcanic rocks formed in three ways: 1. The mafic igneous bodies intruded upward between sedimentary layers forming sills and stocks, cooling in the subsurface. The classic example of a volcanic sill is the Palisades along the western side of the Hudson River.

GEOLOGY AND GEOGRAPHY OF NEW YORK BIGHT BEACHES A "Bite" of the Big Apple This web site is a collection of short reports and image libraries about the natural history of the New York Bight region. The goal of this project is to provide basic information about the beaches scattered throughout the New York Bight, emphasizing those within Gateway National Recreation Area (New York and New Jersey). Each web page linked to this report carries a theme related to the topics listed below. The web pages can be followed in a chronological order by clicking on the NEXT PAGE web link on the bottom of each page. But first... Check out the "new stuff..." A Brief Geologic History of Raritan Bay. "Lost Culture..." A bight is a general term for a bend or curve in the shoreline of an open coast. In the New York region it refers to the great expanse of shallow ocean between Long Island (to the north and east) and the New Jersey Coast (to the south and west). Because Long Island trends generally east to west in relation to mainland of New Jersey it creates a great right angle in the general geometry of the Atlantic coastline. The Hudson River's outer harbor and the Raritan Bay (shown in the image above) constitute only a fraction of the greater New York Bight region.

The state is divided into two roughly equal sections, usually called the eastern highland and the western highland, which are separated by the Connecticut Valley lowland. The Connecticut River, which flows through only the northern half of this lowland, veers off to the southeast at Middletown in central Connecticut. In the south along Long Island Sound is a low, rolling coastal plain. The western highland, with the Taconic Mts. and the Litchfield Hills, is more rugged than the eastern highland. A few isolated peaks in the west are over 2,000 ft (610 m) high. The Thames and the rivers emptying into it drain the eastern highland, and the Housatonic, with its chief tributary, the Naugatuck, drains the western highland. The Connecticut shore is a popular summer resort area, and the protected waters of Long Island Sound lure boating enthusiasts. Bridgeport is the largest city, with
