(W. L.) Teter was an American inventor and entrepreneur of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.Teter was born in Morgan County, Ohio on February 20, 1841 to Henry and Catherine Teter(s). He was the third of their five children. His siblings were named John H., born 1829, George W., born 1833, Philip, born 1846, and Catherine, born 1844. Henry Teter maintained a farm in Morgan County.","W. L. Teter married Parmelia Vaughn, also of Morgan County, on April 19, 1863. Their first child, Frank, was born the following year, and their daughter Pearl, was born in 1874. During the Civil War, Teter served in the Union Army as a Private in Company H of the 17th Ohio Infantry. A request for an \"invalid pension\" indicates Teter may have been wounded during the Civil War.","Soon after his military service, Teter moved his family to Rockbridge County, VA and settled in the town of Goshen. (Interestingly, a \"William L. Teter\" appears as an enlistee in McClanahan's Company of the Virginia Light Horse Artillery, also known as the Staunton Artillery of the Confederate Army.)","Teter'searliest inventions were to improve methods in the processing of grain. In 1874, he assigned US Patent Number 154,268 for an \"Improvement in Millstone-Dress\" to J. D. Mines of Moffett's Creek, VA. Teter's idea for an \"invention ... whereby a mill-burr may be dressed so as to prepare the grain for flouring at the eye of the stone, and this save a large percentage of the power ordinarily required...as well as permit the mill to operate by twenty-five per cent less water\" was handed over to Mines for implementation.","United States Patent 224,969 was awarded to Teter in 1880 for an improvement on a device used in the production of flour. His enhancement was to the \"middlings purifier.\" The patent was for a special rotating bolt into which kernels of wheat are fed to remove the husk and in the construction of the purifier box whereby air is admitted to control the process at various points along the bolt.","In 1882, Teter was awarded United States Patent 262,505 for the \"process of and apparatus for the cleaning of grain.\" The object of the invention was \"to clean wheat and other grains by removing its outer or bran coating, thereby producing an article from which to make flour which shall retain its nitrogenous elements upon grinding it into a flour in the ordinary mill.\" In 1885, Edward H, Graham sued Teter unsuccessfully for patent infringement.","The focus of Teter's inventions shifted from agricultural improvements to the increased popular applications in the use of electricity and other emerging technologies of the period.

Teter was an American inventor and entrepreneur of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries.Teter was born in Morgan County, Ohio on February 20, 1841 to Henry and Catherine Teter(s). He was the third of their five children. His siblings were named John H., born 1829, George W., born 1833, Philip, born 1846, and Catherine, born 1844. Henry Teter maintained a farm in Morgan County.","W. L. Teter married Parmelia Vaughn, also of Morgan County, on April 19, 1863. Their first child, Frank, was born the following year, and their daughter Pearl, was born in 1874. During the Civil War, Teter served in the Union Army as a Private in Company H of the 17th Ohio Infantry. A request for an \"invalid pension\" indicates Teter may have been wounded during the Civil War.","Soon after his military service, Teter moved his family to Rockbridge County, VA and settled in the town of Goshen. (Interestingly, a \"William L. Teter\" appears as an enlistee in McClanahan's Company of the Virginia Light Horse Artillery, also known as the Staunton Artillery of the Confederate Army.)","Teter'searliest inventions were to improve methods in the processing of grain. In 1874, he assigned US Patent Number 154,268 for an \"Improvement in Millstone-Dress\" to J. D. Mines of Moffett's Creek, VA.

Illinois from 1911-1913, he served\n         during World War I in \n         Franceas an army officer with the \n          American Expeditionary Forces , from\n         September of 1918 until May of 1919.","R. T. Walker Duke 's letters to his\n         parents from 1908-1911 describe his experiences in \n          Montana as a cowboy, his interest in\n         homesteading, bronco riding, and his work as a printer. In\n         1917, Walker was assigned to the \n          5th Illinois Company , \n         Ft. Sheridan, Illinois. His letters\n         written during his service in \n         Europerun from October 1918 to March\n         1919. After the conclusion of the war, Walker served with the \n          Judge Advocate General Department in \n         Washington, D.C.(letters to his parents,\n         1920-1925).","Mary Duke 's letters to her parents,\n         1918-1926, and no date, describe her nursing experiences and\n         other charitable work in the \n          Archdeaconry of Southwest Virginia with\n         Mrs. \n          Hugh F.

It also reveals the financial difficulties of various\n         family members during the Depression years.","The \n          Slaughter family correspondence comprises\n         the fifth subseries of correspondence and contains letters to\n         and from members of \n          Edith Slaughter Duke 's family, including\n         her parents, \n          Mary Harker and \n          John Flavel Slaughter, Sr. , and her\n         brothers and sisters.

She\n         describes her travels in \n         Europe(May 11, September 19, and 24,\n         1899); her concern for the \n          Lee family in \n         Chinaduring the struggle of the\n         Kuomintang with the warlords for political supremacy (March\n         29, 1927); her trip to \n         Mexico(July 25, 1928) and the \n         Middle East(November 4, 1935).","Most of the Slaughter correspondence concerns either\n         business matters or family news with a few exceptions. \n          Charles Slaughter, Sr. writes concerning a\n         strike and riot in \n         Duluth, Minnesota(July 7, 1889); \n          Charles M. Harker, Sr. describes the\n         meeting of the American Convention ( \n          Know-Nothing Party ) in \n         Philadelphia(June 10, 1855); Mary B[?]\n         R[?]'s letters, 1861-1862, provide a woman's view of the Civil\n         War; and \n          Samuel Slaughter describes his trip to \n         Ireland, \n         Scotland, and \n         England(July 24, August 1 \u0026 5, 1889).\n         Members of the \n          Garland family write concerning family news,\n         Dr. \n          [Erasmus] Darwin 's theory of the earth,\n         and the significance of fossils, and General Hull's activities\n         at \n         Sandwichin \n         Canadaduring the beginning of the War of\n         1812 (August 4, 1812); and a trip to \n         Bostonand \n         Montreal(August 1 \u0026 11, 1851).","Of note among the miscellaneous correspondence are two\n         letters from \n          John Singleton Mosby , one to \n          R. T. W. Duke, Jr. (September 27, 1915)\n         acknowledging Duke's letter of sympathy on the loss of Mosby's\n         son, and another to Captain \n          Sam Chapman (September 30, 1919)\n         concerning the manifesto of the \"Stonewall Jackson Camp\" at \n         Stauntonabout the role of Southern\n         soldiers in the Civil War.","Also of interest are the letters, 1895-1954, from \n          Mary Lee and \n          Claude Lee , an Episcopal medical\n         missionary family in \n         Wisuh, China. They ran a hospital and\n         dispensary from 1908 until ca. 1947. Although their letters\n         reveal various aspects of missionary life and personal family\n         news, they contain little of Chinese events. One letter by \n          Claude Lee (October 13, 1918) speaks of\n         the participation of the \n          8th Czecho-Slovak Regiment in a battle\n         against the Bolsheviks in the \n         Ural Mountainsnear \n         [Tagelove ?], Russia, during World War\n         I.","The last subseries of correspondence consists of topical\n         files concerning the American Legion and World War I; business\n         correspondence of \n          R.

As could be expected,\n         most of these letters contain plans for furnishing their new\n         home, family news, and personal messages, all of which\n         chronicles the growth of the \n          Duke family .","The alphabetical miscellaneous correspondence file has\n         letters from college, fraternity and Masonic friends, business\n         associates, and other acquaintances and includes merchandise\n         orders, requests for speaking engagements, business matters,\n         literary concerns, letters of sympathy and personal news.","Letters of note in this group include the following\n         correspondents and topics: \n          S.

Of note in this group is a volume of \n          R. T. W. Duke, Jr. 's letters from \n         Europewhich contains transcripts of his\n         letters home during his European tour of 1882.

Duke, Jr. , Walker, Jack, and\n         Eskridge, were all in the armed forces during World War I, and\n         their letters that decribe camp life and their war experiences\n         are in the correspondence to their parents, 1917-1919.","Jack \n          (John Flavel) Duke was an Air Service\n         officer stationed at \n         Post Field, Sill, Oklahoma, and at \n         Ft. Leavenworth, Kansas, and his\n         correspondence, 1917-1919, and no date, describes his flying\n         experiences.

T. Walker Duke 's letters to his\n         parents from 1908-1911 describe his experiences in \n          Montana as a cowboy, his interest in\n         homesteading, bronco riding, and his work as a printer. In\n         1917, Walker was assigned to the \n          5th Illinois Company , \n         Ft. Sheridan, Illinois.

It also reveals the financial difficulties of various\n         family members during the Depression years.","The \n          Slaughter family correspondence comprises\n         the fifth subseries of correspondence and contains letters to\n         and from members of \n          Edith Slaughter Duke 's family, including\n         her parents, \n          Mary Harker and \n          John Flavel Slaughter, Sr. , and her\n         brothers and sisters.

She\n         describes her travels in \n         Europe(May 11, September 19, and 24,\n         1899); her concern for the \n          Lee family in \n         Chinaduring the struggle of the\n         Kuomintang with the warlords for political supremacy (March\n         29, 1927); her trip to \n         Mexico(July 25, 1928) and the \n         Middle East(November 4, 1935).","Most of the Slaughter correspondence concerns either\n         business matters or family news with a few exceptions. \n          Charles Slaughter, Sr. writes concerning a\n         strike and riot in \n         Duluth, Minnesota(July 7, 1889); \n          Charles M.

They ran a hospital and\n         dispensary from 1908 until ca. 1947. Although their letters\n         reveal various aspects of missionary life and personal family\n         news, they contain little of Chinese events. One letter by \n          Claude Lee (October 13, 1918) speaks of\n         the participation of the \n          8th Czecho-Slovak Regiment in a battle\n         against the Bolsheviks in the \n         Ural Mountainsnear \n         [Tagelove ?], Russia, during World War\n         I.","The last subseries of correspondence consists of topical\n         files concerning the American Legion and World War I; business\n         correspondence of \n          R.

CWGS finds its origins in an informal Caucus for Women's Concerns formed in 1972 within West Viginia University (WVU) to \"achieve equitable treatment of women.\" In 1977, the Caucus submitted recommendations to then-WVU President Gene Budig regarding the establishment of a women's studies program and an advisory council on women's concerns. In response to these recommendations, the Caucus was officially accepted by the university as the Council for Women's Concerns (CWC), which included a Women's Studies Subcommittee formed to research and help facilitate a formal women's studies program.","The first proposal for a women's studies program was submitted to the CWC by Renata Pore in 1978, upon which a search committee headed by Dr. Enid Portnoy of the English Department was established. In 1980, the Women's Studies Program (WSP) was officially established as an interdisciplinary program in the College of Arts and Sciences. Judith Stitzel, a founding member of the CWC, was selected to serve as the first part-time coordinator of the WSP.","Under Stitzel's direction, the WSP developed an undergraduate Certificate Program in Women's Studies to be first offered in 1984. Simultaneously, the Center for Women's Studies (CWS) was established in the Office of the Vice President for Academic Affairs and Research to provide a collective space for students to gather. Judith Stitzel was made the founding director of the center, a position she would hold until 1992, making her the longest consecutive director of the center. The CWS would become affiliated with the Eberly College of Arts and Sciences in 1993.","The first undergraduate Certificates in Women's Studies at WVU were awarded to six students in 1986, the same year the first Master of Arts in Liberal Studies (MALS) graduated in Women's Studies. The Carrie Koeteurius Scholarship, which is still offered as of 2024, was first awarded to Deborah Gregory Eck and Lilo Ast in 1987.","One of the early major projects of the CWC, the Women's Centenary, \"Excellence Through Equity\" began planning in 1987 with Dr. Lillian Waugh being chosen as the research coordinator. After several years of planning and research, the Women's Centenary commenced in September 1989 on the 100-year anniversary of the first group of women to be admitted to WVU as degree candidates. Events were held over a two-year period, including lecture series, galas, building rededications, historical tours, exhibits, time capsule creations, and county-wide engagements. The Women's Centenary culminated with a convocation in 1991 on the 100-year anniversary of the first woman to graduate from WVU, Harriet Lyon.","In 1992, Judith Stitzel stepped down as director of the CWC, and the position was taken up by Helen Bannan from 1994 to 1998. Under Barbara Howe's directorship from 1998 to 2007, a BA and undergraduate minor in women's studies was established to coexist with the Certificate in Women's Studies. The first WVU women's studies major, Jamie Lynn Baxter, graduated in December 2003.","Janice Spleth served as interim director between 2008 and 2009, before Ann Oberhauser took directorship in 2009. Under her leadership in 2012, the CWC was renamed the Center for Women's and Gender Studies to incorporate a larger scale of classes and topics. After Oberhauser stepped down in 2013, Jennifer Orlikoff took directorship until 2016. Between 2016 and 2019, Cari Carpenter and Kasi Jackson served as interim directors, during which the LGBTQ+ Center was opened. In 2019, Sharon Bird became director, a position she still holds as of October 2024.
