I'm Jiahao Shen and I'm a History student in James Madison University and this oral history interview is for the behalf of the Bird of Haven community, and the interview will be preserved at the Shenandoah County Library. You have informed me before that you uncle used to work there, so I say you have uncles that used to work at Bird Haven? Moomaw: That's correct. Shen: Based on what you know, what kind of the experience is this? Moomaw: He worked there immediately out of high school, and I think they were making the wooden balls and maybe some of the wooden furniture. I don't think -- as I recall he told me that they were no longer making the toys and the puzzles and so on. Shen: Is that the uncle that's from your mother's side or father's? Moomaw: My father's side. Shen: Do you meet regularly? Have you met regularly especially at your young age? Yes, at your young age? Moomaw: He went to work there after he graduated from high school, and for a year and married and moved to Ohio. We've maintained contact, but not very regularly I guess. Shen: Discuss about his experience, so how he's feeling about the life at Bird Haven Community. He's not living there? He's only a worker there? Moomaw: Right, he actually lived in Orchard Springs. I'm not sure that there are many people that live there. To what extent it was a community, I don't know. I know that there were several farm houses down there and there were families that lived on the property, but not all the workers by any means did. Shen: So you said all the workers a lot of people, I mean people even if they did not live there, but still they come from the region that's pretty close from the neighboring community? Moomaw: Yes. Shen: Okay. Your uncle as you said is also there, it's a very unique local community, so it's not -- How do you think is diversity of the Bird Haven Community based on what you know? Moomaw: The diversity? Shen: Yes. Moomaw: It was just basically people who lived in the area, and they were pretty much we all came from families that migrated from Pennsylvania in the 18th century. They were farmers and so on. There may have been a few people that these were German, they're called Pennsylvania Dutch. They may have been a few people that 1 �worked there who spoke some of the dialect, but it was say a very non-diverse community. Shen: Okay. The community is pretty local community. How you always think about your uncle? What kind of person he is and what kind of career himself is very impressive? Moomaw: As I said, they married, moved to Ohio. I remember that we went to see them and other more distant relatives there in 1953. I went to a Cleveland Indians baseball game. Cleveland Indian and Boston Red Sox. They were major powers in the American League in those days. He went there for a factory job, because that type of jobs were not available here. He grew up on a farm as would many of the people who worked at Bird Haven. I don't know how long he had the factory job, but sort of, and I think they were still relatives, he started working part-time for a farmer. There was a relative that also worked for him. At that time, originally it was a draft horse farm, a working horse farm and by the time he got there, the big thing was chickens and eggs and also I guess wheat and soya beans and stuff like that and then cattle. As he was given more and more responsibility, and eventually the man who owned the farm had him in his will and he became a farmer in Ohio. [laughs] He didn't actually end up in the industrial world. Shen: Good. The things that's he did before and after, before he moved to Ohio and after he moved to Ohio are pretty different. The job he did after he moved to Ohio is more industrial or agricultural? Moomaw: When he first moved, but then he quickly switched to within, probably 10 years to farming. There was a lot of -- as I said, we opened a farm here. Working at the -- we sometimes called it the toy factory and we sometimes called it Bird Haven. The wood working was something that -- We have some chairs that were made by, would have been his great-grandfather. People made their own furniture quite a bit, and I think some of that carried over into the Bird Haven Cooperative. Shen: Have you ever been to the Bird Haven before it's closed? Moomaw: I never went through the factory. It probably closed when I was eight or 10. There was a post office there, and I remember going back to the post office, probably riding with my grandfather's brother who was the rural mail carrier. His post office was established there, because of all of the items that they shipped out. Then when it closed down, the post office didn't last much longer. Shen: How is it like the Bird Haven operates or after it closed down, is that still function, become functional or land just being sold? Moomaw: The people who owned it lived there for a while after it closed down. I knew their son or step-son, and my parents had a restaurant, general store kind of thing that they operated in the summer. There was hamburgers and sandwiches and beer. I guess where I met the step-son was at this place. He would come by and have a beer or two, and he had a tab. I think I'm right that he paid with -- not every 2 �time or not always, but occasionally he paid with a piece of craft work from Bird Haven. My brother I think has those -- I don't know if you've seen those, have you seen the artifacts? The wooden bowls and so on. My grandfather, one of the things that the workers could do was to use the equipment’s after hours to make furniture and so on. My grandfather had a number of side tables commissioned, he had some walnut lumber, he had those made there. Shen: There are still some people, currently there are still some people living in the Bird Haven? Moomaw: The people that -- it was bought, they started a housing development. There’s a housing development with 10 to 12 houses. They may -- they may have sold some of their land to Bryce resort. It’s a ski resort, you know about Bryce resort. It's a ski resort, there’s a lake that is built on what was Bird Haven property. They use the water as a source to make snow. Shen: That resort turned in an industrial company? Moomaw: Resort? Shen: Resort. Moomaw: I think, I'm not sure about that. Shen: You had Mentioned before, the people used to as the Bird Haven community that used to make their own furniture. What are you saying about that relationship with the outside community? If it is pretty much self-sufficient community. Do they even have some economic financial business relationship with outside? Moomaw: Well, at that time -- it was founded in the 1920s I think. At that time, there was more of a cash economy that people would -- by that time, they would use the catalogue. People would order things. There were a number of general stores around and then at Mount Jackson there were fairly good size farm supply and furniture stores. People would buy that certainly. It wasn’t really self-sufficient at that time. Earlier, you still had a lot local crafts probably in the late 1800s. A few of things still survive. One of the thing that a lot of churches here do is make apple butter. Apple butter, it’s a spread for bread or whatever. It’s a community project and I think that was done quite a bit. There were people raised that picked a cause. When I was a kid, probably every family around here butchered and had a very careful use of all of the parts of the hog. Some parts I didn’t participate in, I probably should have but pickle pig's feet and all that which is part of Pennsylvania Dutch tradition. Is that your question? Shen: For the Bird Haven community, what scenes they make benefits for? It's for the agricultural products or some handmade things? Which one make more benefits? Moomaw: At Bird Haven? Almost everything that they made at Bird Haven was sold through catalogs and shipped out. The people in the area would get some of the 3 �people that work there. There are people who have some very nice collections of things. It’s an item like the mount Jackson museum. If they can find an authenticated piece from Bird Haven, they'll try to get it for their collection. There is a museum in TimberVille which is in Rockingham county 20 miles from here that has a lot of the equipment from the factory. Apparently what happened when the factory closed they just one day they closed the doors and walked away and all of the equipments and someone was there, and someone at the museum at TimberVille was alert enough at that point to get a part of that collection. Shen: For the neighbor community, for the community that's pretty close to there of Bird Haven, were you supposed to have a lot of interactions with them? What kind of things at Bird Haven surprised people mostly? What’s the general impression about Bird haven when it was still in use or after it now became functional, what's the general problem? Moomaw: I think there was feeling somewhat of a feeling of loss. I think it had gone through a gradual decline. I don’t know when -- the peak may have been in the late 20s and early 30s. I remember when my uncle worked there, by that time, it was a stop gap thing for him. It wasn’t a source of very much employment I don't think. There was a feeling of loss. I seem to remember that at one time there was a sign there saying that it was a bird sanctuary which is maybe where the name came from. There were stories that it was founded by someone from New York I think and they had some connections with the area and they thought that this could be an opportunity to build up some local industry. There is a little bit of information about that is in the Mount Jackson museum. Shen: For the people who used to work there, is there children that still live in the neighboring community or go pretty much outside. You have mentioned that your uncle moved to Ohio. Is that a pretty common thing for the children that distanced themselves from the previous worker. Moomaw: I think probably a lot of them would have moved but there are also a lot still living around here like Mr. Shamburg. I can think of three or four people that I know that had relatives, parents or grandparents who worked there. Shen: What is the common popular reason why the bird Haven wealth had failed? Moomaw: I've never actually had any discussion of that. I guess it would be related to after world war two, you've got the big manufacturing expansions and you got more or less of this craftsman kind of a thing. If it were -- If it had managed to stay operating, it might be something that would be -Moomaw: Yes. It's just -- I don't know. It seems like at one time it should have been a fairly -- it was a fairly strong ongoing concern. I have a puzzle that I bought on eBay that was in -- It was shipped back from England. They had some fairly wide market. Shen: When it was still functioning, the most perfect they made is from their handmade crafts, not their agriculture. 4 �Moomaw: Right. Though basically, it was not agricultural at all. The people that found it -- This is not great agricultural land around here. The people that found -that were looking were trying the develop industry that would provide opportunities for the members of the local community. The industry -- the type of economic activity in the area has always been tourism. It fit in with that pretty well. If you drove through springs, you saw the big hotel. You need to go back and look at that again. One of those buildings was built before the Civil War. The big one was built just after maybe 1870s. It was -- They would have three or four hundred people that would come. People stayed for a couple of weeks. It was a typical spring resort kind of thing. Not hot springs but mineral springs. And then there was another episcopal conference center. It was founded in the 1920s which was about the same time that Bird Haven was started. There was a lot of tourist activity. A lot of people -- including the farmers depended a lot on these summer resort activities. I remember seeing a letter once from a pastor who had served two or three churches in the area. It was like, "Maybe you all be able to pay me now. I know that there was a good summer at the hotel and should have some money.". That was the major market activity other than agriculture. Of course, in those days you had pretty large families. A lot of people migrated. When my uncle moved to Ohio, he had moved to an area where he had an aunt and four or five cousins, and the cousins had children. It was that kind of move. Shen: Yes. It's been a tourist center, not for the Bird Haven but for the whole community, has been a long period of time being tourist center. Why were the things that such incoming of the tourist. It's a pretty substantial amount of tourists. They've not saved the Bird Haven to continue to function because it still failed. Moomaw: It's a good question. The last peak in the tourism particularly at the springs hotel. There was also that Mr. Shamburg told you about, and there was also the original Bryce Resort was basically a summer resort with some cottages and so on. There was a lot of that and the peak was during World War Two. After that, automobiles and air conditioning and a little bit later the interstate. That type of summer vacation just went away. I don't know that the tourism was providing support for Bird Haven. I would think it would've been. I'd never thought about that. Shen: Is that like absolutely, that Bird Haven was failed. Is that there like the industry companies that established in this region. Moomaw: Not a lot. It's, there's some. There was a lot of people. People would go to DC, go to, move out of the area. Particularly, well you've got the orchards and you've got there was an apple processing plant at Mount Jackson. Then they developed. They had --They have a small industrial park and so on. It's never been enough to provide enough employment for people to stay. 5 �Shen: Before it failed, has that put stable company, I mean pretty much the, pretty amount of the families from generations worked there, is that pretty stable? Moomaw: I think so. It was like probably like from 1925 to 1950s, so probably cut -there would be a couple of generations. Shen: After it failed, what's the children of these family continue to work across the - If they don't have the option to work on the Bird Haven, what's they choose to do commonly? Moomaw: Well, they -- One of the things that there was a little -- they would have continued to work in -- for the various resorts. There was very -- Right now, Shrine Mont, which is the Episcopal Diocesan conference center and it's a combination of the original Autumn Springs Hotel and the original conference center. They probably, at this point, they have maybe ten to 15 year round employees. That's something that has grown over the years. Probably, when they, in the '50s, they probably would have been, for year round, they may have been six or eight. There was that. But --A lot of people would go into the military and come out with some sort of job training because he was in the military and he was at communications and he worked for AT&T and he then became -- He came back and was managing the resorts. Another cousin who was in the military, worked for the government, started people -My generation was the first generation where there were many people that went to college. There were a couple of families around here with a -- further back when the kids went to college, and when you go to college, who knows what happens to you. Again, earlier on, they were the large families and there was not enough economic activity in the area to sustain that population. Shen: How are you seeing about the failing of the Bird Haven community? What indication it gives the -- marks the transformation of the local society or marks the declining of the local economy. How is the thing goes? Moomaw: How what? Shen: What indication is its failing in regards to the local community? What kind of impact it gives? Moomaw: I think it was probably slow enough and not big enough that it probably did not have a big impact. I don’t really know how many at their maximum, how many employees they had, but I don’t think it would have been a big effect. Shen: So it's more about the emotional loss. Is that pretty much influential part of the local community. Moomaw: Well, I think it was. I think it was an influential part and -- but it for such a short period of time. See, I suspect maybe World War II depleted the work force and the -- I don’t know if they may have had problems getting materials and that sort of thing, and then, after World War II, there were these changes that affected the tourism economy. 6 �I think it also, didn’t happen right away but Toys "R" Us took care of the toy factory and IKEA took care of the furniture. Whatever was comparable to Toys "R" Us, and IKEA back in the '50s, but you see the -- Now, I think that a handcrafted thing like that could -- there are places where you find that and so, they tend to be more like little art communities. There's a place in Alexandria called the Torpedo Factory which is -- it was a torpedo factory and now it's set up with lots of artisans. It attracts tourists, and it's that kind of thing. Shen: So such like the handcrafted traditions still continue on? You have the Bird Haven crafts what's the feeling? Moomaw: There are a number of people in the area that have maintained that artisan thing. The mantle that we have was something that was -- I don’t remember who it was, but there was someone in the area, a builder, felt that they could put together something like that. We had some people come in to build some bookshelves. So, there are some people like that still around, guess they're working more independently. Shen: I've some pictures of the Bird Haven. What do you think about these two? Probably, they're handmade tools. Is that still common in local communities today? Is that still the common thing or it’s just a -- mostly it disappear-- when the Bird Haven was failed. Moomaw: I've seen people serving salads with Bird Haven stuff, but I think it’s something that’s been -- some crafts have been in the family so -- But yes, there are a lot people in this area, close-by and then further out into the valley that have Bird Haven stuff. Shen: Have you seen this since when you were at a young age? Have you seen these things that made by Bird Haven when you were at a young age? Because it's not -Moomaw: Yes. Shen: - okay. So, they sold some very frequently or at the -Moomaw: People in the community, yes, I don't know. A lot of people in the area have -- I think it was quite popular. Shen: I also have the picture of how -- What's made community very unique? Is that -- this house -- Have you seen the house that's the Bird Haven? Such as a relation -how would you describe these houses? Is that pretty modern or is that pretty oldfashioned or something? Moomaw: Well, this may have been an old house. I suspect this was maybe built for the factory, I don’t know. There would be people who would. Did you show this to Mr. Shemberg? I don’t know. This looks like it could have been like a log house, and this looks like -- I think the Post Office was in one of those actually, and this is 7 �something like a barn, but it looks like it was built for the factory actually. This looks like it could be very old, and these are not so old. Shen: Therefore, we can say that the felling of the Bird Haven as the -- was the point. What kind of the lifestyle compare before and after it's fallen. The lifestyle of the -- not only about the Bird Haven, but also about the whole local community, what change that accompany with the falling of the Bird Haven? Moomaw: I don’t think it was big enough and fast enough that it had much of an impact. There may have been a couple of families that were impacted by this. Shen: What about the lives thereof -- If we put into the broader context, what about the difference between their lives, their -- your generation and your parents' generation? Moomaw: And what was the -Shen: What's the difference, the big difference between your generation and your parents' generation, because the Bird Haven actually failed at a very young age, as you -- so I think the question could be raised, what kind of the difference overall, between your generation and your parents' generation? Moomaw: Again, I don’t think it was -- what happened was that you started having a shift in the type of agriculture that was taking place after World War II. You've seen all these old chicken coops around. That was, after World War II, that became -people who had been farming moved into that, the agricultural land around is -There are lots and lots of fields that were farmed 75 years ago with crops, that no longer are. In this area, there's practically no one growing crops. The only type of agriculture is beef cattle, and they grow hay, and chickens. Bird Haven, did not really affect that. It might have been different if it had become a large -- maybe something that employed 75 to 100 people, it could have had an effect on the number of people living around here and that sort of thing. There was a factory, a truss factory, that was in between here and Basye, that just went out of business and it operated from maybe 1970 to 2010, I guess. It had maybe as many as 100 employees at one time. It more than made up -- it wasn't right away, but it more than made up for the loss at Bird Haven I think. I think probably some of the people who worked there, their parents may have worked at Bird Haven. Shen: You have mentioned due it's role, it's place in society, due to its size, it's pretty limited. It's loss has not really imposed a great impact on the community. Moomaw: I think that's fair enough, yes. Shen: What's the folklore or the popular memories, the popular stories, about Bird Haven that you have heard about at a young age? Moomaw: I think there was maybe at that -- I knew about it. I knew that it was sometimes called the Toy Factory, but I didn't quite know why. I was surprised to 8 �learn, not long ago, about all the shipping that they did. About the post office being opened, basically because of all the shopping they did. Apparently, they printed books there at one time too. There was a lot of things going on there that if it had continued, it would have been a nice addition to the community. We've got the Bryce Resort, the ski resort. We've got the hotel, the conference center, and so on. I'm sure it was something that tourists, when they came, one of the things they did was they went to Bird Haven to see -- Julie, your mom took people to Bird Haven? Juile (Interview’s wife): Yes, she took them because they made beautiful maple dishware and tableware. Moomaw: This would have been about 1951, '52. Her parents came to the conference center here, and she knew about -- I guess a little bit later too after you all moved here? Julie: Yes. Moomaw: She was very interested in local artisans, and so on. That was one of the things that people would do when they came to stay a week, they would go -Shen: So it used to be a large tourist center. Bird Haven also makes things unique, like the animal figures. The center obviously failed. You said the local community also continued to make such objects, or did they just disappear? Moomaw: I don't think so. There may be some folks that do that woodworking but I can't think of any. Shen: There are displays in the museum in Mount Jackson. There's photos. Moomaw: Of these things but I don't think anyone's continuing. I don't know of anyone who -- there might be someone who does. Shen: What's the nowadays the local artisans provide? What kind of the works they provide? You've said your handmade crafts tradition does not continue. Moomaw: I think furniture. I think there's some people -- Furniture and furniture repair, and that sort of thing. Shen: It turns out to be more practical products. Moomaw: Yes, but with a slant toward the craftsmanship. Shen: What about your own story, your ongoing background? What about the environments, the communities that yourself grew up. What kind of community it is? Moomaw: What type of community? Shen: Yes, where you grew up. 9 �Moomaw: Where I grew up? Shen: Yes. Moomaw: It was Orkney Springs, is where it was. 10 years earlier, there were probably a lot of kids around, but it had become a somewhat older community. Basically, there was me and my cousins. It was very family-oriented. We made a lot of trips -- not a lot of trips to Ohio, but we went to Ohio, my grandparents. My grandmother had a brother in Florida, and they would go to Florida fairly frequently, every other two or three times in ten years. We had relatives in D.C. We would go there. Things that stand out, going to a baseball game, going to the zoo, these were things that you did them infrequently enough that you remember the particular trip. Shen: You have mentioned that -- Are you retired or still teach? Moomaw: I'm retired. Shen: You used to be an economy professor at Oklahoma State University. Where did you study for, before you become a professor? Moomaw: I went to the University of Virginia. Then when I finished there, I went to Princeton for graduate work. Then I went back and taught at Virginia for a short time, and then I went to Oklahoma. Shen: Is Oklahoma also a huge agricultural state? Moomaw: Yes, it's like beef and wheat. I think there's some herb that's not legal to produce, that sort of thing. [laughter] Shen: What's a difference you observed that you can see between Oklahoma and the local community? Moomaw: We were in Stillwater, which is a town that is smaller than Harrisonburg. The people, you have both the university community, which they tend to be similar wherever you are, and I'm sure it's that way in Harrisonburg. That the faculty and so on, they hang out together, I suspect. But again, Harrisonburg is bigger. Then the people that we knew, it was a friendly little community, very much like here I think. Shen: From your view, from the economic view, how will you define the community, it's economic situation, it's economic environment nowadays? Moomaw: Here? Shen: I will say like there -- at a young age, did the economic difference between -at a young age -- right after the felling of the Bird Haven and nowadays. Moomaw: There's less agriculture. In addition related to being a tourist area, the large retirement community. Again, the Bryce resort is organized around skiing, 10 �there's a golf course, very fine golf course I'm told, and then there a lot of people that are -- that are retired there. The Lions Club at in basing is one of the largest in the zone or the district and it's growing and most communities, the Lions Club are small and shrinking and the reason is this retirement community. We have people coming in from Northern Virginia and also, mostly Northern Virginia I think, but also Richmond people that come and ski and they're attracted by various kinds of amenities. Then when they get here, they tend to affiliate, some of them, with community organizations. The other big one is at the lake of the woods which I think is near Fredericksburg and I think it's a retirement community. I think there's another big one at Smith Mountain Lake which is again, has a retirement community aspect. Now, the Bryce resort, that has -- Well I was going to say that that's almost a hundred percent retirement community, but there are people who actually move here and tend to keep employment in Northern Virginia and they can telecommute and actually physically come here. I've been surprised to learn how much that takes place. So the retirement community has added -- the retirement aspect has added a lot to the economic activity. So you've got people that are providing services when one of the -- I think his father worked at Bird Haven. He does tree work. So he cleared this area out here for our view and it's something he's done landscaping, that he's done a lot of for the Bryce Retirement Community. Shen: How are things there that people from the local community -- Do they have some apparent difference especially when comparing with the other parts of the Virginia like this Charlesville? Moomaw: I don't know what, how -Shen: Do they have some apparent difference? Moomaw: Yes. I think the similarities would be to the the rural areas outside of Harrisonburg. The rural areas outside of Charlesville have millionaires. There's a little bit of a dynamic between the people who retire here and the people who grew up here. The people that retire here from Northern Virginia refer to the locals and the locals refer to the people -- what do they call them? Coming here is one thing. And if you've been here 30 years you might still be and come here. We're a little bit different situation because I grew up here, my wife from Woodstock then we moved out, then we came back. We were gone for 40 years. So we count as local, but in some ways we also count as coming back. So I'm involved with the Lions Club in Bryce which is mostly people who have retired there maybe 10% percent from the people that have had deeper roots in the area. Also the Veriton Club which is -- The Veritones are a community service organization that was found in Virginia and they have a rural focus. So most of the members of the Veriton Club tend to have people that have deep roots in here. 11 �Shen: For all the places that you have been experience and have been lived, study or teach -- taught certainly for a while, which one you love most of it? Moomaw: Which? Shen: Which one you love most of it? Moomaw: That I liked most? Shen: Yes. You liked mostly? Moomaw: This is where I chose to retire. Moomaw: Okay. That says a lot. Moomaw: It would be nice if we were a little closer to Northern Virginia. It's a little bit of a -- you have to plan to go to North Virginia to do something. I think if we're going to have family connections here too, I would think that maybe someplace near Winchester or near Harrisonburg would have some advantages. Again, Harrisonburg is like 45 minutes. Again it's a little bit of a trip, a lot of people go frequently, but we've enjoyed coming back here. Shen: How far is there from the place that you grew up. Moomaw: You saw the house, go to the house and then you go past two driveways, the house is where I grew up. [laughs] It's not very far. Shen: So is that your neighbor? Actually your neighbors, the people you're familiar with are still here? Moomaw: The people know -- My parents sold it in the 60s I think. Now the people that live there now are -- His parents retired at Bryce and he ended up here with his wife. My grandmother also grew up there. So pretty deep family roots. Shen: I think that's good. 12 � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

This group was designed to provide locals, many of which were economically disadvantaged, with good paying jobs based on their wood working traditions. Clark built a factory on property his grandmother had purchased as a personal retreat and named it Bird Haven Virginia. Initially the community workers focused on wooden toys and puzzles. Many of these featured birds, Hollywood Stars, or animals. Later the company began to produce small wooden furniture, bowls, and kitchen utensils. Bird Haven closed sometime in the early 1960s. Following this, most of the records were lost and much of the site's history was forgotten. This oral history project, conducted as part of a partnership between the Shenandoah County Library, James Madison University, and Bird Haven Farm, is designed to recover some of lost parts of the site's story. It focuses on interviews of 14 members of the Bird Haven community, including several employees and individuals who lived nearby.

Curtis Delawder JILLIAN CRAVEN: So my name is Jillian Craven, and I am with Curtis Delawder, and we are talking about Bird Haven, the date is March 24th. So what is your relationship to Bird Haven? CURTIS DELAWDER: Well my grandfather used to own part of the property that is now part of Bird Haven. Uh, the greenhouse down by the creek at the lower end, it’s not in very good shape right now, it’s falling down, he owned that, and then Bird Haven absorbed three or four different properties after they closed the plant. Uh, we have relatives that worked there, but I’m not…you know, like the…Stuart and Barb, their son lives right across the road, Stuart and his wife both worked there. I remember going on down there when I was a little boy and I’d sit for hours watching Stuart in the, working on the wood lathe, making bowls and stuff like that. Uh, I’d just sit there and watch…uh, because I was nosy. J.C.: So your grandfather owned the land, and then your father also worked in Bird Haven as well… C.D.: He worked next to Bird Haven on the Alum. He worked for the Alum Springs Hotel and that property which adjoins Bird Haven, so he didn’t actually work for the uh, what was it, Shenandoah Community Workers I believe it was. He didn’t actually work for them. But Tom seemed to think I had some knowledge of the Bird Haven basically. I was a kid going down there watching...uh…it was just unreal to me as a young kid living out here in the boonies, to watch ‘em making this furniture and bowls and stuff like that out of a piece of wood. JC: And you said you used to mow the lawn for them as well? Cd: I did. When I was in high school, uh it was probably just before they closed the plant, I mowed the lawns, tended the garden, I might’ve been 13…13 or 14, for the owners but I never worked in the plant. JC: So can you recall for me what the general layout of the plant was, then? CD: Well that little—well we had the showroom and the post office, and that little block building was where Stuart’s lathe was, and then across from that was I think the finishing where they did the �shellacking and whatever. Uh, that big long block building, uh, they had machines in there for gluing the wood and stuff to put it all together, but uh, I didn’t spend much time in that section. JC: Um, so you mentioned “the lathe” what exactly does that entail? CD: what? JC: A lathe? CD: Lathe! There are wood lathes, there’s metal lathes, and you put a block of wood on ‘em and you have tools that you use to cut it and trim it down, uh, like you see these table legs that are, uh, Elizabethan? Is that—you know, where their funny shaped or whatever, uh that—they cut those with a lathe. Nowadays I think they just use a plastic mold but they used to make little like, milking stools, uh…magazine racks, uh, big salad bowls and then they’d have forks and spoons to mix the salad with and stuff. Uh, before—originally, when they first started and I wasn’t aware of this until uh Leslie and her husband bought the property and I was down there one day nosing around with them, uh, they started out making crossword puzzles. They were wooden crossword puzzles, back before the war, and—of course I wasn’t born until the war was almost over so I wouldn’t know anything about that. JC: That’s so interesting, so what were some of the more prominent or common jobs then would you say, were they lathes, or, um— CD: Well they were—you had people that uh, glued, and uh, I think Stuart was the only lathe operator, I think his wife worked in finishing, uh Sarah. And, let’s see, what was, there was, a James Barb I believe that worked in the uh, building where they glued all the stuff together where they assembled. And of course they, you know, they had to sand and finish the wood before it was varnished and whatever but, I really don’t know that much about their procedures. JC: And you said your father worked at the Alum Springs— CD: Hotel. JC: What was the relationship that the hotel, or resort/hotel had with Bird Haven? And were they fairly close? I know that there were a lot of resorts in the area. �CD: Well they joined each other, ha ha, I mean I don’t know, um, uh, the Alum Springs Hotel they had uh, Alum Springs, but there’s also an arsenic spring just inside the Bird Haven property line. Uh, I found that out when I was doing some work for the, uh, census back in the late eighties. Um, I think they know where it is, but ha ha ha you don’t want to let the animals get anywhere near to it. JC: Were there outside elements, like whatever was going on with the war or certain politics that effected Bird Haven at all would you say? CD: I’m sure it had some effect on it, but uh, I wouldn’t have any personal knowledge of what that might’ve been. I know that the Alum Springs Hotel, shut down the hotel and turned it into a chicken house. I mean, a three-story chicken house with an elevator. Umm, that was uh, probably in the early forties that they did that. JC: And how long had Bird Haven been operating for? Or was operating for, would you say? CD: Ha ha, I have no idea, it was always there—I remember it. Uh, they used to make uh, little boats, uh those uh… I don’t know what you’d call them like a little windmill on a stick? Uh…and uh, stuff like that, early on. The only reason I know that is because they had a bunch of ‘em stored in an old barn just on the other side of the plant. Uh, they always called it the Dodge Barn, but I have no idea why, evidently it was the owners of it before Bird Haven bought it. JC: Do you remember why Bird Haven closed or if there was a specific reason? CD: I guess it was just economics. Well the owners were getting old and uh, I mean the, the demand for wooden salad bowls and milking stools and stuff like that I guess, it just wasn’t there, I don’t know, uh, I don’t remember a whole lot about why it closed I don’t even remember when it closed. JC: Do you, or can you recall for me what the sense of community was like around Bird Haven? Would you say it was close knit or… CD: --Oh I’m sure it was close-knit but there wasn’t that many people around here. Um, when Bird Haven was in operation…(recalling under his breath) one…two…three…four…maybe �five…six…When Bird Haven was in operation from here to Bayse, there were four houses—no I’m sorry five, because there was one out there by (*incomprehensible name but I think Ortney Gray*). So take a look now at how many houses there are between here and the Ortney Gray. Uh, so the people that worked there lived fairly close because not everybody had a car. Uh, and a lot of people relied on the postmaster for a ride here or there if they needed to go to town, they’d ride with the postman, the mailman, to town or whatever. Uh, so the—it was a close-knit community, everybody worked together at that time. If somebody had a car and was going to town, they’d stop at the neighbors to see if they wanted anything or needed anything from town while they were going. So you know, everybody helped everybody out. JC: Do you have—what’s your most prominent memory or your favorite memory of going to Bird Haven? CD: Watchin’ Stuart workin’ on the lathe. I mean that was—Like I said, in the summertime, when I was young, maybe eight, nine, ten years old, I’d go down there and sit for hours. Maybe I didn’t spend a whole lot of time in the rest of the plant because maybe they didn’t put up with me for being so nosy asking questions and stuff. But Stuart was always—he didn’t seem to mind me watching him. JC: Did people stay even after Bird Haven closed? Did people stay in the area or did they move farther away? CD: I don’t think anyone left the area because Bird Haven closed. JC: Did they get other jobs that were similar to what they did? CD: Probably not. ‘Cause I don’t know of anything, any plants or anything around here that did that type of work. JC: And so, your grandfather and your father what did they do after Bird Haven closed? CD: Same thing, my grandfather he owned that farm down there by the greenhouse and this ridge down through here, and he owned this house and property up here on the corner on the turn, and he farmed and did most of it with horses. My dad, he worked, for the hotel, well the poultry �division of the Alum Springs Hotel. He took care of their chickens, ‘cause after they turned the hotel into a chicken house they built two other buildings as chicken houses. But I don’t know that that really had any impact or that Bird Haven really had any impact on what they did. JC: So would you say—you were showing me a video earlier of what they would show at the theatre, is that something that you would do for fun as well? CD: (turns to his computer) Uhh, by the time I was old enough to go out there the swimming pool was in disarray, I mean they didn’t maintain it. At one time it was a big swimming pool, creek fed so it was always cold. But uh, that was always part of the trip, you know. I had this—Halibut Springs is the little gazebo out there (turning to me) did you get both those pictures? (Pointing at a picture) Right here. This was Halibut Springs. And of course like most it was supposed to be a healthful thing and that’s what this commercial is supposedly about—he had a bunch of glasses of water from the springs and threw his canes away and run off. JC: So the springs were supposed to be all-healing, all-powerful? CD: Right. And of course, Bird Haven is just across the fence from them so maybe they had some of the benefit from the springs, but this is the swimming pool. And I think this was in 1941, so it’s almost been….let me go back to the swimming pool… JC: So were there other kids in Bird Haven primarily? CD: Well yeah. So Stuart and Sarah lived right there across from the main house down over at Bird Haven and they had…three children. They were down there. Theodore Barb lived between here and Bird Haven on down the hollow, he had five or six children. Poke and Louise lived in the greenhouse, they had four or five children. I forgot about a house down the hollow here, a log cabin…five children there. So there were a lot of kids around. The school bus between here and Bayse loaded up. JC: And did the kids ever help out at Bird Haven or was it more just adult jobs? CD: It was more or less adults, I don’t think any, there were never any children that worked there I don’t believe. �JC: I didn’t know if there were any odd jobs like sweeping up or something. CD: No I don’t think so, I was probably the youngest one working there and that was mowing the lawns and weeding. I never saw any kids around because it was dangerous equipment they weren’t gonna let any children hang around. It’s a wonder Stuart let me hang around the lathe. JC: And were you ever able to see some of the toys that were made there? CD: Well yeah, because we used to find them and take the boats down and float them down the creek. And the windmills and whatever but, that barn had fallen down around stuff that they had stored out there, I guess it was stuff they couldn’t sell or whatever, and after the plant closed down or whatever, neighbor boys would go down there and get these boats and stuff and we’d float ‘em down the creek. JC: Were there any aspects from Bird Haven’s society that differ from today’s society would you say? CD: *long pause* Bird Haven society was just the normal society for the life’s times of that era. Just like this is the lifetime, lifestyle of this era. You know, it just, the people have adjusted to the area and the times. It just is a lot different—everybody’s got a car, everybody’s got a television set. When Bird Haven was up hardly anybody had a car hardly anybody had a television set. Television came out what, was it just before the fifties? Early fifties? So uh television was just coming out when Bird Haven was closing down. JC: You also mentioned they were called the Shenandoah Community Workers as well. CD: That was the name of the plant I believe. JC: Okay so that was the name of the plant, but Bird Haven was the name as well I believe? CD: Bird Haven was the name of the community I guess, or the property just like the Alum Springs Hotel or Bayse, Conicville, that was the name of the area. I don’t ever recall that there was any stores or anything like that around Bird Haven, but the post office was there. And I’m not even sure why it was called Bird Haven. When—I can’t remember the name of the people who owned it— when they closed the plant down they sold the property to a retired army colonel Ham. Ham then purchased, well he owned the property where the greenhouse was on, then he bought Bird Haven �then he bought Theodore Barb’s place, then he bought some other to put it all together as Bird Haven. Then Colonel Ham sold it to the developer who developed some of it, he used the main house for a sales office. He didn’t develop a whole lot of Bird Haven, he did put, he took about twenty acres of it up by the road that they divided and put houses on but…now I done forgot your original question… JC: What was the difference between the Shenandoah Community Workers and Bird Haven? CD: Shenandoah Community Workers was located at Bird Haven. Supposedly it was a bird sanctuary but at that time I remember passing through a lot of towns that had signs that said they were a bird sanctuary. And you still see a lot of them in West Virginia I believe you know you got “Bird Sanctuary” when you come into the town. I have no idea why it was called Bird Haven. Why was it called Bayse? Or Conicville? Or Jerome? It goes too far back. You know my ancestors built the road across the mountain for homestead but didn’t give it a name. *Phone Rings* CD: Let me see who this is, do you mind? *First recording stops, second begins* JC: Are there any memories that you have about Bird Haven that you think would be essential to us recreating it? CD: Not really. I can’t think of anything, like I said my best memories were watching Stuart. JC: And did you learn anything through watching Stuart and going to Bird Haven? CD: Oh I’m sure I did. I didn’t learn how to use a lathe. But when we were young, every weekend, especially on Sundays a bunch of us kids would get together and we would just roam around. I mean, we had these whole mountains, not a care in the world to roam over. And it was all learning experience, everything we did or every place we went there was something to be learned. Just walking across the street you could learn things. Anything in particular or special? I couldn’t pin that down. JC: With this project, what would you prefer Bird Haven’s legacy to be? �CD: *long pause* I personally I appreciate the things they’re doing to restore the buildings and stuff to what it was, I think that there’s a lot of history there but unfortunately most of the people who made that history are no longer with us. I’m glad to see them restoring the buildings, I would like to see them put to some use. I mean, what good is a building if it’s not going to be used, but then again that’s a big undertaking to restore those buildings to what they were. I don’t know but I see that furnace falling apart out here, the side wall falling down and I’m so disappointed that that’s happening I hate to see it. But I hate to see all these old, big old barns on these farms and stuff falling in disrepair and being allowed to fall apart. I bought a farm just to get the barn. It’s one of those big old barns and the timber’s just a log. And I’ve spent, well, what I’ve spent is irrelevant, trying to restore it and preserve it, ‘cause I don’t want to see it fall down, I don’t want to see it destroyed. JC: Would you say that your father and your grandfather enjoyed their time working on the resort and with Bird Haven? CD: *laughs* Well, I don’t know if enjoy is the proper word. It was a way of life. It was an available way of life. And in that day and age, you used whatever you could find, whatever was available. But I think, isn’t that the same thing we have today? We use what is available? Are you being paid for this? You’re doing it as a hobby or as a class project? JC: A class project. CD: A class project, okay. But you will be paid for it then won’t you? You’re gonna get grade, alright? Are you enjoying it? I hope you are. JC: It has been really fun to learn more about Bird Haven. CD: Well I have more about the community and the area than I have about Bird Haven itself, but it was always a part of the community. JC: Would you consider Bird Haven to be, and the Shenandoah Community Workers to be particularly successful when they were at their peak? �CD: Oh I’m sure they were or they wouldn’t have lasted that long. I mean, they changed their production to go along with the times. You know they started with crossword puzzles, then to little toys, then to furniture and salad bowls and stuff like that so they had to adapt to the times. And that’s what the community has done that’s what Bird Haven has done, is adapted to the times. JC: Do you have any last-minute or additional comments or things you would like to have shared about Bird Haven? CD: No other than I’m glad to see them restoring the buildings and stuff though I hope they can put them to use. JC: And how would you want them to be used in that sense? Would you like it to go back to their— CD: Well I don’t think there will ever be a demand for the hand-made salad bowls… JC: They’re beautiful I mean I’ve seen them they’re beautiful. CD: They did make some beautiful stuff there’s no doubt about it. But after they closed the Shenandoah Community Workers, the Mervin Dellanger out there opened a plant to make basically the same stuff they were making at Bird Haven previously. And he opened a store there, but that didn’t evidently turn out too well he turned the plant into a pallet-manufacturing shop to manufacture pallets and apple crates, the big apple crates, so he wasn’t making any money on salad bowls. *laughs* you had to adapt. JC: Well thank you so much for answering some of the questions that we had CD: I don’t know that it would be very helpful… JC: You gave us a different side from what we have seen before. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.
