Alden house
a ‘landmark’
Alden Kindred, town of Duxbury
share in national historic honor
By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor
justin@duxburyclipper.com
John and Priscilla Al-
den have always been a part
of Duxbury’s history. This
weekend, they became part of
America’s.
Saturday marked a historic
day in the annals of the Alden
family. The homestead of their
progenitors, Pilgrims John and
Priscilla Alden, was recognized
as a National Historic Land-
mark, joining an elite company
of sites.
For the small group of
people who worked on obtain-
ing the designation, John and
Priscilla’s descendants known
as the Alden “Kindred,” the
application process was a labor
of love, a project among “cous-
ins,” as the Kindred are known
to refer to each other.
Tom McCarthy, Alden de-
scendant and history profes-
sor at the US Naval Academy,

“I think we’ve come to a

The move provoked out-

newspaper ads in an effort to
get the coach reinstated.
Skeiber said it was not

players that resulted in the re-

“It was really the discus-
sion we had,” she said. “We
were able to get to the bottom

Sweet has been the coach

By Justin Graeber, Clipper Editor state average,” he said. comended for closing, mere- 4AKE/UTs+ITCHEN/PEN

justin@duxburyclipper.com
Selectmen have thrown
their support behind an effort
to get a traffic signal installed
near the intersection of Route
3 and Route 3A.
Engineers from both Island Creek North and the town say the off ramps
at Exit 10 are traffic nightmares, and that Duxbury would benefit from
a traffic signal on Tremont Street. An engineer for the developer said
the project might get Duxbury placed on a project list faster.
Town Planner Thomas
Broadrick met with the board
Monday night to update se-
lectmen on a plan by the state
to revamp the intersection’s
off and on ramps, widely
considered to be a traffic haz-
ard. The project has been on
MassHighway’s radar for a
number of years, but the pro-
posed expansion of the Island
Creek housing development
just down the road may push
the project up the state’s list of
priorities, according to Broad-
rick and representatives from
Island Creek’s developer.
The process is long and
filled with paper work. Dux-
bury (and neighboring Kings-
ton) would eventually want the
intersection to appear on the
state’s TIP, or Transportation
Improvement Project, list.
Before that, Broadrick
said, the Board of Selectmen
needs to sign off on a propo-
nents project letter informa-
tion form, which will then be
brought to the attention of state
transportation agencies.
“You can always yank
things off the list but it takes a
lot to put them on,” he said.
Broadrick said the goal
would be to get the project in
line for a round of transporta-
tion funding in 2013-15.
“It would make sense to
at least get this on the list,” he
said. He said that in his time as
a planner he has seen projects
take up to 10 years to move
from being placed on the TIP
list to groundbreaking.
Jeff Dirk, a traffic engi-
neers with the Island Creek
team, told selectmen the in-
stallation of traffic signals is
separate from his project, say-
ing that the additional traffic
from the development won’t
significantly add to the already
messy interchange.

tersections is already twice the

“We’ve had people die
there,” she said. “A month

men Christopher Donato and
Sullivan decided to wait until
the Aug. 17 meeting so that
Jon Witten, who was not in at-
tendance Monday night, could
participate in the discussion.
• MacDonald informed the
board that he has appointed a
crematory building commit-
tee, consisting of cemetery
trustees, a citizen at large, the
cemetery commissioner, the
DPW director and the building
inspector, to study how to best
use $80,000 appropriated at

the possibility of building a

owned sites, including the
high school, the Alden and

Sometimes the begging noises are deafening. Since
most songbirds are the size of adults when they leave the

that this year’s crop is on its own. Nesting takes a lot out of a
bird. The entire reproduction thing is exhausting and building
and feathering a nest is a good part of it. Each species does it
differently, too.
Robins are pretty adaptable about where they build.
They will make nests in deep woods or gardens or parks, on
buildings, on the ground, in bushes. Both male and female
construct the nests. They aren’t fussy about housekeeping.
Their nests are often messy with grass sticking out at all angles.
They usually lay three gloriously blue eggs. Only the female
incubates which takes about two weeks. As soon as the eggs
Macdonald
hatch the male takes care of the fledglings while the female
lays another clutch.
& Wood
On the other hand, the Spotted Sandpiper makes a scrape
in the sand for a nest and lays about four speckled eggs that
resemble the sand so well that it is easy to step on one. Then
the male incubates the eggs and tends to the few needs of his
precocial chicks while the female takes off! Luckily for the
males, precocial birds emerge from the egg nearly ready to take
on the world. Unlike robins (and people) they are able to run
and feed by themselves within two days.
If you have been watching birds in your yard raising
young, you know it can be a hobby all its own. Cornell Lab of
Ornithology at Cornell University has established a program
of volunteers called NestWatch to help determine the causes
of species decline among birds. As their Web site explains,
“NestWatch teaches people about bird breeding biology and
engages them in collecting and submitting nest records. Such
records include information about nest site location, habitat,
species, and number of eggs, young, and fledglings. Citizen
scientists submit their nest records to our online database where
their observations are compiled with those of other participants
in a continentwide effort to better understand and manage the
impacts of environmental change on bird populations.”
NestWatch has a short list of “focal species” that they are
especially interested in and most of them are common back
yard birds like Blue Jay, Goldfinches, Catbirds, Mockingbirds,
etc. However, you are not restricted to just those birds.
Pick your favorite bird or the one closest to home. You can
probably find a nesting bird in or near your yard and contribute
to this important effort. You needn’t be an expert birder or
even a birder at all to spot a nest, monitor the activity over a
month-long period and report on its success or failure. If you
would like to be a “citizen scientist” go online at http://www.
nestwatch.org/ and sign up to monitor next summer’s nests!

Duxbury PRIDE lights up
By Colleen Moore,
Clipper Intern
Duxbury residents are in-
vited to show their “PRIDE”
next week at a cookout to help
raise money for the comple-
tion of the turf field at the high
school.
The group has been work-
ing for the past four years to
complete the project, Duxbury
PRIDE member Ann Mullins
said. The last push for $25,000
is to pay for the lighting reno-
vations in time for fall sports.
The lights were a part of
the first section of the project,
which took place earlier this
summer. The wiring for the
lights run under the turf field,
and needed to be placed before
the turf was laid down. There
were two new poles installed
and energy efficient light bulbs
were put in to replace the old
ones.
Although the lights have
already been replaced, the
group needs to raise the last bit
of money to pay for the reno-
vations.
The group is hosting “Tail-
gate for Turf Part 2: Light Up
the Night” on Aug. 15 to raise
money to pay for the renovat-
ed lights.

was a senior policy advisor to the governor and prior to that worked
as a vice chancellor at the University of Massachusetts.
stances are such that people
worry how they are going to
handle their own finances so
this stuff, what goes on at the
Statehouse, becomes less of a
concern.
What is the toughest part
of your job? I think the tough-
est part is to maintain a bal-
ance between all the interests
that come before us here in the
governor’s office, whether it’s
from the cabinet or external
something that I would think
reasons why we should make
a particular decision, but you
have to balance against those
who may be impacted in a
negative way. It’s always hard
to make sure you have all the
information and are making
the right recommendations.
The governor was in-
volved with the recent fund-
ing controversy with Zoo
New England. Did you play
any role in that? My role was
pretty limited, in terms of that.
The appropriate place for Zoo
New England to work through
the issues was with Secretary
Bialecki, the housing and eco-
nomic development secretary,
and basically I just made sure

Did you interact with the
legislators about the zoo?
No, that’s one of those things I
think the legislature has some
strong feelings about. Our con-
cern was making sure that the
management of the zoo was
really looking at everything
as closely as possible. This is
such a difficult economic time
with so many things being cut,
things that really affect every-
day people and their everyday
lives. We just wanted to make
sure the zoo was doing ev-
erything it could in its part to
mange its operation well.

We used to take the kids to the
beach all the time. But I’d say,
the last several years it hasn’t
been the case. Not as much as
I would like.
Last fall, Duxbury voted
for a Democrat for president
for the first time in about 40
years? Being a Democrat
and having lived in Duxbury
for a while now would you
say it’s a more of blue town
or a red town? I think it’s a
thoughtful town [laughing].
The issue in Cambridge
with Prof. Gates and Ser-
geant Crowley has gotten a
lot of attention lately. As an
African American man liv-
ing here in Duxbury do you
ever feel like you’ve ever ex-
perienced any type of racial
discrimination? I can’t say
that I have in Duxbury, no. I’ve
never experienced that here. I
mean, have I ever experienced
that in my life? Sure. Yeah.
…It’s an interesting question.
You have to understand me; I
was born and raised in Wey-
mouth and when I was there it
was not a diverse town, so the
situation is not unusual to me.
And so I think if people look
at me differently, I have an ex-
pectation about that. It’s not
that much about, quite frankly,
because it’s something I’ve
lived with all my life.
Where do you go to relax
or get away? This past Feb-
ruary we were in St. Thomas
on vacation, which everybody
loved. My wife and I actually
were married there, but it was
the first time with the kids. We
have a great time there. I also
have a cousin that lives in Mi-
ami and we try to visit him a
lot.
Read any good books
lately? I haven’t read anything
good lately that I can think of,
but I can tell you what I want
to read. There’s a new book

here. He’s a good guy. I like
him a lot.
How did you end up mov-
ing to Duxbury? My wife and
I were living in Weymouth at
the time. We were looking for
somewhere to buy. Weymouth,
I grew up there. We were look-
ing for something a little more
quiet and rural and Duxbury fit
the bill. Also planning ahead
because my daughter was born
in 1994. We were thinking
about schools and all that, and
Duxbury is a good community
and a nice town.
Do you find you have time
to take advantage of some of
the amenities Duxbury has
to offer? We used to when
we first moved to town and

about Satchel Paige that I’d
like to read.
You a baseball fan? Defi-
nitely.
Do you think the Red Sox
should trade those pitching
prospects for Roy Halladay?
I’d love them to.
What’s your take on
the gubernatorial race and
Charlie Baker? Hard to tell,
really. For me it’s just way too
early to start the next cam-
paign.
Ever want to run for of-
fice yourself? No.
What are your plans
down the road? I don’t know.
I’ve been very fortunate
throughout my whole career
to have some really interest-
ing positions. Quite frankly I
haven’t really thought that far
ahead.

The “King Caesar Morn-

Duxbury Rural and Historical
Society continue on Thursday,
Aug. 6 with a lecture by Craig
Chartier, Director of the Plym-
outh Archaeology Re-Discov-
ery Project who will share the
findings of the Society’s Sec-
ond Meeting House dig. The
event begins with refreshments
at 10 a.m. and the lecture com-

The Duxbury Rural and
Historical Society engaged
Chartier last fall to lead the
archaeological dig that took
place at the Society’s Second
Meeting House Lot. Located
on Chestnut Street next to
the Old Burying Ground, the
lot was the site of Duxbury’s
Second Meeting House from
c. 1706 to 1785. More than
150 volunteers of all ages took
part in the dig, locating traces
of the foundation and many
fragments of building mate-
rial. Chartier will describe
the location of the structure as
determined by the dig and will
display some of the artifacts
discovered.
The lecture takes place at
the King Caesar Barn on 120
King Caesar Road in Duxbury.
Tickets are $5 person and may
be purchased at the door. For

Alden site recognized as a
National Historic Landmark
continued fromp age
to be submitted to the National
Park Service. Although the
site was already listed on the
National Historic Register (a
list of about 80,000 sites na-
tionwide) the designation as
a National Landmark, a group
of less than 2,500 sites across
the country, is a far more pres-
tigious honor.
“It’s a promotion,” said
McCarthy, who added that
people often confuse the two
distinctions.
The first steps to the honor
were taken around 2003-2004,
McCarthy said.
Jim Baker had just become
curator of the house, and was
doing some research on his
own, along with another Alden
descendent who had previous-
ly worked on colonial archi-
tecture at Williamsburg.
McCarthy, a kindred mem-
ber himself, started to work on
preparing an application for
landmark status, at the urging
of his friend and mentor, na-
tional parks advocate Robin
Winks.
“He strongly encouraged
me to get the process started,”
McCarthy said. “It was a lucky
confluence of people being in-
volved.”
McCarthy spoke to the
complication of the process,
noting that the most visible as-
pect of the site, the circa 1700
house located on Alden Street,
is perhaps the least important.
First and foremost is the
cultural impact the Alden story
has had on American culture.
John Alden, the barrel maker
on the Mayflower, decided to
throw his lot in with the set-
tlers and even –– as postulated
by John Adams, an Alden de-
scendent –– may have been the
first man to set foot on Plym-
outh Rock. Another Alden
descendent, poet Henry Wad-
sworth Longfellow, immortal-
ized John and Priscilla in his
work “The Courtship of Myles
Standish,” Priscilla’s words to
Alden, then acting as an inter-
mediary for Pilgrim military
leader Standish, “Speak for
thyself John,” established the
Aldens as the archetypical
Pilgrim couple. Their names
were taught in history classes
and even graced the labels of
cookies.
“They are the best known
and most recognizable de-
piction of the Pilgrims as a
whole,” said Baker.
“All Americans had that
as part of their cultural back
ground,” McCarthy added.
“They’ve become the symbol-
ic Pilgrims.”
Also included in the land-
mark designation is the site of
the original Alden home, locat-
ed several hundred feet away
from the existing house behind
the school athletic fields. The
original site was excavated in
Marianne Peak, Susan Skeiber and Betsy Sullivan pose with the
plaque that will be installed at the Alden House. In addition to the
existing house, the site of the first Alden home, located on school
property, is also part of the landmark designation.
The site of the first Alden house – the only house that John and
Priscilla Alden probably lived in –– is behind the athletic fields at
the school complex.
1960, and artifacts were found
that shed light on how the
original Pilgrims lived.
The site also serves as a
monument to genealogy, a tes-
tament to the dedication of the
Alden Kindred in keeping their
shared heritage alive. John and
Priscilla had ten children, 70
grandchildren and 400 great-
grandchildren. Their descen-
dants include names like Ad-
ams and Longfellow, as well
as New York Times publisher
Arthur Sulzberger, actor Orson
Welles, poet and newspaper
editor William Cullen Bryant
and former Vice President Dan
Quayle.
All of these things together
earned the site the historical
honor.
“There’s no single site,
outside of Plymouth Rock,
that pulls it all together like
this one,” said Baker.
Marianne Peak of the Na-
tional Park Service came to
Duxbury Saturday afternoon to
bestow the honor at the Alden
Kindred’s annual meeting.
“The federal government
recognized what all of you
have long appreciated,” she
said.
Selectman Betsy Sullivan
also spoke at the ceremony on
behalf of the town. She called

Duxbury boys sail for Team USA in European Regatta

Sean Golden and Alec Stewart,

both from Duxbury, to the 15-
person Team USA that repre-
sented the United States at the
Flanders Invitational Regatta,
in Nieuwpoort, Belgium. Sail-
ors qualified for the event
based upon their performance
at the US National Team Trials
that took place in early May, in
Darien, Conn.
The US Team was com-
prised of Optimist sailors from
throughout the USA, including
New England, Illinois, Florida
and Texas. Coaching the team
were long time US National
Optimist coach Ben Williams,
from South Florida, and Eddie
Conrad from Stanford Univer-
sity. The team met in Europe
several days prior to the event
to practice in the conditions
and adjust to the time zone.
The international event
took place over five days, and
hosted teams from 11 coun-
tries throughout Europe, North
America, and South America.
A total of 79 sailors competed
in the regatta. The event took
place in Nieuwpoort, Belgium,
on the North Sea. The area is
known for strong tides, strong
winds, and rugged weather,
though for the better part of
the eight days of sailing, the
sun shined and the winds were
light. However, conditions
changed during the final days
of the regatta and the racers
saw six-foot seas and winds
that blew, at times, over 30
knots. Sailing on day four was
