Scouting in Pennsylvania

Scouting in Pennsylvania has a long and rich tradition, from 1908 to the present day, serving thousands of youth in programs that suit the environment in which they live.

Early history (1908–1950)
One of the earliest Scouting groups in Pennsylvania began in 1908 in Pottsville, when a Superintendent with the Pennsylvania State Police, Lynn G. Adams, formed a troop using Baden-Powell's handbook, Scouting for Boys. The troop was made up of two patrols, one sponsored by the Pottsville Mission and the other by the YMCA. Adams became the first Scoutmaster in Pennsylvania in 1910 soon after the BSA was incorporated. The oldest Pennsylvania Scout troop still in existence is "Troop Bala One" in Bala Cynwyd, which was founded in 1908 by Frank H. Sykes.

The first council in Pennsylvania was the Delaware & Montgomery County Council in 1911. This council eventually became the former Valley Forge Council, now part of the Cradle of Liberty Council.

Sixteen councils were chartered in America between 1910 and 1913. The seventeenth was the Warren County Council headquartered in Warren, Pennsylvania. This council later changed its name to Chief Cornplanter Council and is still in operation. It is currently the oldest existing, continuously registered council in America. The other preceding 16 councils either went out of business or merged with another council at some point in their history. The information for this paragraph was provided by the Registration Department of the National Office of the BSA, Irving, Texas, in October 2007.

Also in 1913, the Philadelphia Council opened the first American scout camp, Treasure Island Scout Reservation, near Point Pleasant. Two years later, Dr. E. Urner Goodman and Carrol Edson founded the Order of the Arrow, which inducted its first members on July 16, 1915 at Treasure Island.

In 1914, the Allegheny County Council, forerunner of today's Laurel Highlands Council, was chartered. Also in 1914, the Philadelphia Council was chartered.

In 1915 charters were first granted to the councils headquartered in Erie, Wilkes-Barre, and Oil City.

In 1916, councils were chartered in Reading, Lancaster, Harrisburg, and Scranton, among others. The council in Harrisburg is now part of New Birth of Freedom Council.

In 1917 Meadville, State College and Bethlehem were granted charters by the National Office, along with nine other councils.

1919 saw the councils in Williamsport, Altoona and Chester County formed. Like Chief Cornplanter, the Chester County Council is still in operation, one of only a handful of small one-county councils left in America. The other one in Pennsylvania, Bucks County Council, received its first charter in 1927.

By 1920, forty-six councils had been chartered in Pennsylvania. Most of these were small councils no larger than the town they were named after. Some of these were known as "Second Class Councils".

In the following years, other currently chartered councils were started: Juniata Valley in 1929; Bucktail in 1930; Columbia-Montour and Schuylkill County Area in 1931; and York-Adams in 1932.

1937 saw the formation of the current Westmoreland-Fayette Council in Greensburg.

All other current councils in Pennsylvania are the result of mergers which began to occur in the 1960s through the present day.

1941 saw the creation of Camp Ockanickon in Bucks County Council.

Among the claimants for First Boy Scout Troop in the United States is Troop 1 in Bala Cynwyd.

Pennsylvania is home to the oldest annual Scouting event in the nation, the Valley Forge Pilgrimage and Encampment.

In 1928, Eagle Scout (and Erie native) Paul Siple was one of the first Scouts to travel to Antarctica with Admiral Richard Byrd. Byrd had held a national contest to invite worthy Eagle Scouts onto the expedition. Paul Siple later went on to develop what is now known as the "Wind Chill Factor"

The 1921 and 1931 National Order of the Arrow Lodge Meetings were held at Philadelphia, the 1922 and 1927 National Lodge Meetings were held at Reading, and the 1940 National Lodge Meeting was held at Ligonier.

In 1924, the McKean County Council (#499) was formed, changing its name to the McKean-Potter Area Council (#499) in 1926. In 1936, the council changed its name to the McKean-Potter Area Council (#499) in 1936. In 1947, the council changed its name to the Elk Lick Council (#499).

Recent history (1950–1990)
The 1950 National Scout Jamboree was held at Valley Forge. That positive experience led to National Jamborees in 1957 and 1964 as well.

Outside of the few small councils mentioned above, the history of Pennsylvania councils over the past 50 years has been one of mergers.

Beginning in 1962, the Mid-Valley Council, headquartered in Peckville, merged with the former Dan Beard Council in Scranton to form the Forest Lakes Council. Meanwhile, in 1970, the former Anthracite Council (Hazleton) merged with the former Wyoming Valley Council (Wilkes-Barre) to form the Penn Mountains Council. In 1984, the area comprising the former Anthracite Council removed itself from the Penn Mountains Council and joined neighboring Minsi Trails Council. Forest Lakes Council and Penn Mountains Council merged in 1990 to form the current Northeastern Pennsylvania Council, in Moosic.

In 1967, the former Nemacolin Trails Council in Washington, Pennsylvania, merged with the Allegheny Council in Pittsburgh to become the Allegheny Trails Council. This council merged again in 1993 with East Valley Council to become the Greater Pittsburgh Council.

In 1969, the Lehigh County Council (Allentown), Bethlehem Area Council and Delaware Valley Area Council (Easton) merged to form the current Minsi Trails Council in Allentown.

In 1970, the former Appalachian Trail Council and Daniel Boone Council merged to form the current Hawk Mountain Council in Reading. 1970 also saw the merger of the Blair-Bedford Area Council (Altoona), William Penn Council (Indiana) and Admiral Robert E. Peary Council (Johnstown) into the Penns Woods Council in Ebensburg.

In 1971, the Lancaster County and Lebanon County councils merged to form the Lancaster-Lebanon Council. This council changed its name in 1995 to the Pennsylvania Dutch Council and is headquartered in Lancaster.

In 1972, the Washington Trail Council (Erie), Colonel Drake Council (Oil City) and Custaloga Council (Sharon) merged to form the current French Creek Council, headquartered in Erie.

1973 saw the merger of the former Lawrence County Council (New Castle) with the former Pioneer Trails Council (Butler), forming the current Moraine Trails Council, host to two National Jamborees (see below).

Also in 1973, the former Elk Lick Council, in Bradford, merged into the Allegheny Highlands Council headquartered in Falconer, New York.

In 1974, the former West Branch Council (Williamsport) and Susquehanna Valley Area Council (Sunbury) merged to form the current Susquehanna Council in Williamsport.

In 1973, the Allegheny Highlands Council (#382) was formed from a merger of the Seneca Council (#750) and the Elk Lick Council (#499).

Other notable happenings in Pennsylvania Scouting at this time include:

The 1950, 1957, and 1964 National Scout Jamborees were held at Valley Forge.

Half of the 1973 National Scout Jamboree ("Jamboree East") was held at Moraine State Park in Butler County, where the 1977 National Scout Jamboree and Campaganza 2010 were also held.

During 1975 and 1976, Scouts in the Philadelphia area could earn a "Colonial Philadelphia" merit badge. It could only be counted towards palms, not any rank, and came in a green border and a very yellow-green border. This was the only time BSA National approved a regional merit badge for any such use.

Bucktail Council
The Bucktail Council of the Boy Scouts of America serves Cameron, Clearfield, Elk, Jefferson, and the western portions of Centre County. The Council was organized on July 24, 1930, and headquartered in DuBois. The Council adopted its constitution and by-laws on April 28, 1931, thanks to the efforts of John Q. Groves of Dubois. The Council brought under a unified leadership several independent Boy Scout troops in the surrounding areas of Brockway, Brookville, Clearfield, DuBois, Johnsonburg, Mahaffey, Philipsburg, Reynoldsville, Ridgway, and St. Marys.

The first Council President was Lyle G. Hall (1930 – 1938, 1971), the first Council Scout Executive was H. B. Knepper (1930 – 1937), and the first Council Commissioner was H. T. Gray.

The name of the Council references the 13th Pennsylvania Reserve Regiment, also known as “Bucktails”, a volunteer infantry regiment that was part of the Army of the Potomac during the American Civil War. When the regiment was first forming, one recruit —many of which were woodsmen and lumbermen— ornamented his hat with a tail from a White-tailed deer he had found in a butcher shop. Other men liked this decoration and adopted the practice, causing the regiment to be known as “Bucktails”.

District

Bucktail Council has a single District, PA Eastern Wilds, which covers the following school districts: Cameron County, St. Mary’s, Bald Eagle, Clearfield, Curwensville, Moshannon Valley, West Branch, Philipsburg-Osceola Area, Johnsonburg, Ridgway, Brockway, DuBois, Brookville, Clarion-Limestone, Punxsutawney.

Camps
In 1931, the Council used Camp Coffman, the Oil City Scout Council's Camp (now part of French Creek Council), for their first summer camp program. On May 1, 1932, the Bucktail Council Camp Committee reported two sites had been inspected for the location of the Council’s own camp. One was near East Branch Clarion River in Elk County and the second site near a beaver dam along Mountain Run Stream in Penfield, Clearfield County. The Council approved the leasing of the land on Mountain Run which would be developed into the 380+ acre present-day Camp Mountain Run Scout Camp.
 * Camp Mountain Run

The land was first leased from the Kersey Mining Company and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Later the Shawmut Mining Company, which acquired the Kersey Mining Company’s portion, sold its tract of land to the Council in 1939 for one dollar. In 1962, through the efforts of J. Hall Stackpole (Seventh President, 1957 - 1960), his company, the Stackpole Carbon Company arranged a trade of 614 acres for the 307 acres still owned by the Commonwealth which he deeded to the Council.

The Stackpole Carbon Company’s outstanding generosity continued by building and funding the original swimming pool in 1935 and supplied funding in 1960 for the renovation of its filtration system. In 1970, the Stackpole-Hall Foundation provided a large donation for the expansion and renovation of the Camp’s dining hall.

Order of the Arrow
In the Spring 1937, the leaders of Bucktail Council wanted to recognize those Scouts and Scouters who were “Honor Campers”, those who best exemplified the ideals of the Scout Oath and Law. The Council did so by organizing a Camp Honor Society. Shortly thereafter, the Council’s Executive Board in January 1938 voted to apply for an Order of the Arrow Lodge Charter. This effort, led by John H. Keller (Second Council Executive, 1937 - 1942), would form the Lodge’s charter membership from those members of the original Honor Camper Society. On June 1, 1938, a ceremonial team from Camp Twin Echo came to Camp Mountain Run to initiate those first members into the Order of the Arrow. The first official meeting of Ah’Tic Lodge was July 27, 1938, the name “Ah’Tic” taken from the Chippewa language meaning “Standing Elk”.

Kinda commercial, eh?

-- I think this needs to be disambiguated Bornyesterday 15:35, Jun 21, 2005 (UTC)

A few external links to example vignettes would illustrate the concept. I'll get on it... after the Potter project and the eleven remaining essays. *Cough* -- Kizor 08:58, 18 July 2005 (UTC)

Disambiguation
I have always used vignette to mean a graduation of colour. This was learnt from people in the print trade - they always said vignette instead of graduation because the pre-computer technique to create graduations used very expensive film screens for creating graduations. Can anyone confirm? --Simon Cox 09:44, 2 June 2007 (UTC)

== Vignet

Crit'Air is a type of vignette not listed on this disambiguation page
The page on Crit'Air states "The French Crit'Air air quality certificate (French: Certificat qualité de l'air) is a vignette (a secure sticker) issued to show a vehicle's compliance with European emission standards." and the word "vignette" is hyperlinked to the page on "Vignette (road tax)" though that page is restricted to vignettes which specifically and exclusively deal with the taxing of road travel, not the regulation of high emission traffic in so-called low emission zones (as is the case for the French Crit'Air). Should this new type be added in the disambiguation page's list and a new page created dedicated to this type of vignettes, or should the new use of what looks like a "road tax vignette" be modified in the "Vignette (road tax)" by analogy, as a side note? 139.47.24.203 (talk) 09:41, 10 May 2023 (UTC)

Francis Davis Millet

Francis Davis Millet (November 3, 1848 – April 15, 1912) was an American academic classical painter, sculptor, and writer who died in the sinking of the RMS Titanic on April 15, 1912.

Early life
Francis Davis Millet was born in Mattapoisett, Massachusetts. Most sources give his date of birth as November 3, 1846, but a diary which he kept during his military service stated that November 3, 1864 was his 16th birthday, suggesting his year of birth was 1848. At age fifteen, Millet entered the 60th Massachusetts Infantry, first as a drummer and then a surgical assistant (helping his father, a surgeon) in the American Civil War.

He repeatedly pointed to his experience working for his father as giving him an appreciation for the vivid blood red that he frequently used in his early paintings. Millet graduated from Harvard with a Master of Arts degree. He worked as a reporter and editor for the Boston Courier and then as a correspondent for the Advertiser at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition.

Career

In 1876, Millet returned to Boston to paint murals at Trinity Church in Boston with John LaFarge. He entered the Royal Academy of Fine Arts at Antwerp, Belgium. He was the first student to win a silver medal in his first year; the following year he won a gold medal. In the Russo‐Turkish war of 1877–78, he was engaged as a war correspondent by the New York Herald, the London Daily News, and the London Graphic. He was decorated by Russia and Romania for his bravery under fire and his services to the wounded.

Millet became a member of the Society of American Artists in 1880, and in 1885 was elected as a member of the National Academy of Design, New York and as Vice-Chairman of the Fine Arts Committee. He was made a trustee of the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and sat on the advisory committee of the National Gallery of Art. He was decorations director for the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893, with claims he invented the first form of compressed air spraypainting to apply whitewash to the buildings, but the story may be apocryphal as contemporary journals note spraypainting had already been in use since the early 1880s. His career included work on a number of worlds' fairs, including Vienna, Chicago, Paris, and Tokyo, where he made contributions as a juror, administrator, mural painter/decorator, and adviser.

Millet was among the founders of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, and was influential in the early days of the American Federation of Arts. He was instrumental in obtaining the appointment of Emil Otto Grundmann, an old acquaintance from his Antwerp days, as first head of the school. Millet was involved with the American Academy in Rome from its inception and served as secretary from 1904 to 1911. He was a founding member and vice chairman of the U.S. Commission of Fine Arts, serving from 1910 until his death in 1912. He died aboard the Titanic while traveling to New York City on Academy business.

As well as an artist, Millet was a writer and journalist. He translated Tolstoy and also wrote essays and short stories. Among his publications are Capillary Crime and Other Stories (1892), The Danube From the Black Forest to the Black Sea (1892) and Expedition to the Philippines (1899). He was elected a member of the American Academy of Arts and Letters and was an honorary member of the American Institute of Architects.

A noted sculptor and designer, Millet designed the 1907 Civil War Medal at the request of the U.S. Army and United States War Department and the 1908 Spanish Campaign Medal. He executed the ceiling of the Call Room of the US Custom House at Baltimore, Maryland.

Personal life

Millet was close friends with Augustus Saint-Gaudens and Mark Twain, both of whom attended his 1879 wedding to Elizabeth ("Lily") Greely Merrill in Paris, France; Twain was Millet's best man. The couple had four children: Kate, Edwin, Laurence, and John.

Millet was acquainted with the famed American portraitist John Singer Sargent, who often used Millet's daughter Kate as a model. He was also close to the esteemed Huxley family.

Millet lived with Archibald Butt, who called him "my artist friend who lives with me," in a large mansion at 2000 G Street NW. They were known for throwing large but spartan parties that were attended by members of Congress, justices of the Supreme Court, and President Taft himself. There is some speculation that Butt and Millet were lovers. Historian Richard Davenport-Hines wrote in 2012:

"The enduring partnership of Butt and Millet was an early case of 'Don't ask, don't tell.' Washington insiders tried not to focus too closely on the men's relationship, but they recognized their mutual affection. And they were together in death as in life."

Death
On April 10, 1912, Millet boarded the RMS Titanic at Cherbourg, France, bound for New York City. He was traveling with long-time friend Archibald Butt. Millet was last seen helping women and children into lifeboats. His body was recovered after the sinking by the cable boat Mackay-Bennett and returned to East Bridgewater, Massachusetts, where he was buried in Central Cemetery.

Memorials

In 1913, the Butt-Millet Memorial Fountain was erected in Washington, D.C., in memory of Millet and his long-time friend Archibald W. Butt, with whom he shared a home.

A bronze bust in Harvard University's Widener Library also memorializes Millet.

In 2015, his murals were exhibited in Cleveland Ohio.

"hostility toward civil rights for blacks"
"made it rock-ribbed Democratic until the middle 1960s when hostility towards civil rights for blacks drove it to George Wallace in 1968 and Richard Nixon in 1972"

so it was democratic and then hostility toward blacks drove it to wallace (a democrat governor of alabama)... and then nixon in 72? hostility towards civil rights drove them to nixon?!?! wallace ran as independent against nixon and LBJ's VP in 68. there was a higher % of GOP than dems who voted for the civil rights act and it was first introduced by eisenhower, who desegregated the military (after dems resegregated it) and then used the military to desegregate the schools in little rock (run by dems) after brown vs board of ed which ike's AG filed a brief in the case asking for desegregation.

this is convoluted.

it is claiming out of hostility to blacks they left the democrats (the party of segregation and the KKK) and voted for the GOP, who spearheaded desegregation and historically had the support of blacks. Christo1234 (talk) 10:51, 2 October 2022 (UTC)

Incorrect information regarding 1876 incident
I have edited, once again, the historical information regarding the 1876 incident that has repeatedly been reported incorrectly. Any information suggesting race was involved in the incident is incorrect. There are incorrect reports stating the men removed from the county jail were black. They were not. It was a political rivalry incident, not a race incident. Below are two article links from the era, none of which mention black (or from that time 'colored'). It was common journalistic practice to say so, if that were the case during that era. It was always otherwise assumed all parties were white. Additionally, also linked below is a US census report noting the race of Wells family as W, or White. The census data (from 1870) shows the Wells family in Haywood County, a part of the area included in the new Crockett County formation a year later. The Supreme Court case later centered on whether or not an individual should consider themselves safe while in the hands of local law enforcement. It was a matter of individual rights, and was not race related whatsoever. The county has repeatedly been besmirched with an incorrect story and I have been trying repeatedly to correct this mistake.

Tributaries of the Cumberland in Davidson County
Although the old Tennessee Gazateer lists Poplar Creek and Sycamore Creek as important tributaries of the Cumberland in Davidson County, I wasn't able to find either of them in the 1982 Cumberland River Navigational Charts or the 1994 U.S. Geological Survey Water-Data Report for Tennessee. All of the other tributaries could be found in both modern references. I imagine they have either disappeared due to dams or other development or been renamed. I have removed them from the list for now. Kaldari 01:38, 7 March 2006 (UTC)

Davidson County, TN versus NC
Please note the reference to NC, which appears to be a typo since this article is dicussing Davidson, TN.

"Davidson County is the oldest county in Middle Tennessee. It dates to 1783, when the North Carolina legislature created the county and named it in honor of William Lee Davidson, a North Carolina officer who died in the Revolutionary War on January 1, 1782."

Politics
There are some facts that are most certainly notable, such as that Davidson has trended more Democratic (a shift that has largely been overshadowed by the state's rightward trend), and that Joe Biden won the highest percentage of the popular vote since FDR, a fact that is particularly significant, considering he won a higher share than Southern Democratic presidents, including Tennessee native Al Gore. There are likely more, but those two come to mind. Bneu2013 (talk) 19:53, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Update - found source that directly describes Nashville as trending blue while the rest of the state trends red. Also, comparing the presidential election results to other counties in Tennessee is not original research; the source is to Dave Leip's Atlas of Presidential Elections, which covers elections in every state and county in the U.S. Bneu2013 (talk) 18:04, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Dave's Atlas has come under scrutiny before, as it is self-published, and a gateway to a pay site. Could you please direct me to the specific place in that source that supports: "Like most large urban counties, Davidson County is a Democratic stronghold"? Magnolia677 (talk) 18:19, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * If the source is unreliable, then maybe we should stop using it on nearly every U.S. county article. I think the conclusion that Davidson is a Democratic stronghold is obvious, just from looking at the Presidential results. However, these two sources in use below essentially confirm this. Bneu2013 (talk) 18:25, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * The article in the Tennessean is behind a paywall, however, the NBC article is about Nashville, not Davidson County. Several cities, like Oak Hill, Tennessee, are in Davidson County, but not in Nashville.  So again, where is a source to support that "most large urban counties" are Democratic strongholds?  The NBC article states that Nashville voted Democrat in the 2020 election.  How is that a "stronghold"? Magnolia677 (talk) 19:10, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Nashville is a consolidated city-county with Davidson County, so the enumerated population of Nashville consists of about 97% of the population of Davidson County (see census website). Here is an archived snapshot of the Tennessean article. The stronghold refers to the fact that Davidson County consistently has voted Democratic over multiple election cycles, not just 2020. The NBC article says "But Nashville, long one of two major metropolitan blue dots in a deep red state, is also a community where nearly 42 percent of residents are Black, Latino or Asian, in line with many of the country's large and mid-size cities. Much like the country around it, about 13.5 percent of Nashville residents are immigrants." The first sentence describes it as consistently voting Democratic, and the latter implies some of the reasons why it votes the way it does. Bneu2013 (talk) 19:23, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Let's try to tease out the facts from this source. Nashville (not Davidson County):
 * has long been one of two major metropolitan areas in Tennessee that vote Democrat.
 * is 42 percent Black, Latino or Asian, in line with many large and mid-size cities in the United States.
 * is about 13.5 percent immigrants, much like the United States.
 * I see how this implies that Nashville is a "Democratic stronghold", but where is it suggested that "most large urban counties" in the United States are democratic strongholds? Magnolia677 (talk) 21:43, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * The Dave Leip source would probably be appropriate for this, but if necessary, I can find a better source. Bneu2013 (talk) 22:01, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Could we remove that sentence until a source is found? Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 22:12, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * - I've added a source that should be appropriate. Bneu2013 (talk) 22:28, 17 July 2021 (UTC)

You wrote, "Republicans have carried the county only during national landslides (except Dwight D. Eisenhower in both of his elections and Ronald Reagan in his first election in 1980)". Where specifically can I find this in the source you cited? Magnolia677 (talk) 23:18, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * I don't specifically remember writing that; I think that was already there. You can find the individual election results on that website by clicking on a state and manipulating the dropdowns. The URL remains the same, however. Also this needs to be rewritten; most reliable sources describe all of those elections as landslides. Bneu2013 (talk) 23:46, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
 * You added it here when you reverted my edit. I left detailed reasons for removing the text, and you reverted it.  So please either revert your edit, or provide an explanation of how Dave's Atlas supports, "Republicans have carried the county only during national landslides" and "The last Republican president to carry this county was George H.W. Bush in 1988". Thank you. Magnolia677 (talk) 10:32, 18 July 2021 (UTC)
 * - Sorry for the delay in responding. Again, this data can be found by manipulating the dropdowns. However, I think some of the county-level data requires a subscription. I'd be open to simplifying this to something like "Republicans have only carried Davidson County on a few occasions." Bneu2013 (talk) 14:38, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * There have been multiple discussions about the reliability of the source you added, and if you don't even know if the information you added in fact has a source, then could you please revert it. If you are able to find a reliable source to support "Republicans have only carried Davidson County on a few occasions", then of course keep it, but at this point it is unsourced original research.  Thanks. Magnolia677 (talk) 16:52, 19 July 2021 (UTC)
 * - I have gone ahead and removed it for now. Can you please provide me with the links to these discussions about Dave Leip's Atlas? These are the only discussions that reference that source that I could find at WP:RSP, and only one brings up serious objections to its reliability, of which there is a counterargument. The article actually mentions that several prominent media outlets of which there is a consensus of reliability on Wikipedia routinely use the source. Bneu2013 (talk) 02:53, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * See Administrators' noticeboard/IncidentArchive1058. There were also discussions on that editor's talk page.  There were discussions on individual articles as well, but I am not about to locate them.  The concern is that historical county results are are added to articles, but when editors are asked how and where they retrieved that data from Dave's Atlas, they are not able to explain.  This leads me to ask where you specifically located a source to support: "In 2020, Joe Biden won the highest percentage of the popular vote in the county of any presidential candidate since 1944, whereas Biden and Hillary Clinton in 2016 only carried two other counties in the state, Shelby and Haywood, the fewest counties a Democratic presidential candidate has ever carried in the state's history".  Thank you again. Magnolia677 (talk) 10:48, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * - I believe that data is only accessible with a subscription, which I have. Bneu2013 (talk) 17:05, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Ah. Magnolia677 (talk) 17:17, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

I took out the statistic about this county having the "fifth highest suicide rate in the U.S." It may have been true at one time, but according to the CDC Wonder database, the five counties with the highest suicide rate for 1999-2004 are:

DeKalb County, TN is 19th on this list. Is that a statistic worth quoting?

That would be because you looked at old statistics. In 2005 DeKalb County, TN was 5th on the list of all U.S. Counties for suicide and 1st for states East of the Mississippi source: http://tspn.org/wp-content/uploads/SOST122.pdf Jodybarnwell (talk) 18:39, 28 October 2012 (UTC)

Dickson County Cougars
I am curious about the 'legendary' Dickson County Cougars. How do we know half the town is at the games? 75.132.217.146 (talk) 02:28, 18 January 2008 (UTC)

Categorization pertaining to The Coming Nation
Hello - I see that the Socialist newspaper The Coming Nation / Appeal to Reason has its own article. That article has (among others) the following categories:
 * Category:Publications established in 1895
 * Category:Publications established in 1922
 * Category:Socialist Party of America
 * Category:Defunct newspapers of the United States

That's fine. However, those same categories do not need to be applied to the article for Dickson County, Tennessee, itself. So, I am going to remove them. If there is some reason that they were purposely included on the Dickson County article, then let's please discuss. Thanks KConWiki (talk) 16:14, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

I can't find the actual figures, but 222 and 1 do not add up to 224. 68.62.178.92 (talk) 22:51, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

 * You can blame it on rounding. The precise land area is 222.29 square miles. I can't find the original source for the water area data right now, but the water area is given in the article as 3 sq. km, which is about 1.15 sq. miles. It's likely that the real total is slightly above 223.5 sq. miles. --Orlady (talk) 23:31, 5 January 2008 (UTC)

Discussion
Is there, indeed, a worry in this county over the environmental concerns expressed in the sub-title of the same name? I really want to see citations indicating this is a real concern of the county's constituents. GenQuest (talk) 21:53, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Oldest courthouse?
Sorry, but the Dickson County Courthouse in Charlotte, Tennessee, the central portion of which was first constructed in 1835, is the oldest courthouse in Tennessee. 2600:1004:B16F:EB9:24FD:EAC4:CD4:8F47 (talk) 01:24, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
