No full textZebulon Weaver (1872-1948) was a lawyer and U.S. Representative from western North Carolina. He was a member of the North Carolina Park Commission and was involved in the land acquisition process that went towards establishment of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and development of the Blue Ridge Parkway. This correspondence between David C. Chapman, President of the Great Smoky Mountains Conservation Association, Arno Cammerer, , Director of the National Park Service, and Zebulon Weaver-a set of 10 letters-revolves around issues in land acquisition for the park.
Zebulon Weaver to David C. Chapman, December 20, 1935
In this letter Weaver refers to disagreeing with Mr. Cammerer’s view regarding land acquisition by the Park and also states he would be going to Washington soon to deal with the issue.
David C. Chapman to Zebulon Weaver, December 14, 1935
In this letter David Chapman refers to an enclosed letter from Mr. Cammerer stating that 445,000 acres were needed to complete the park instead of 400,000. Chapman feels it would be helpful if Weaver went to Washington to sort this matter out with the Attorney General.
Arno B. Cammerer to David C. Chapman, December 7, 1935
In this letter Cammerer states he was not comfortable to acquire 400,000 acres to establish Smokies as a completed park. He also advises Chapman’s conservation group to await the efforts of the Park to secure more money for securing what he considered sufficient acreage needed for completion of the park.
David C. Chapman to Arno B. Cammerer, December 14, 1935
In this letter Chapman states he was confident of securing a ruling from the Attorney General that once 400,000 acreas were acquired the Smokies would be considered a completed park. Delaying this further for more acreage would create a lot of disappointment and bad feelings about the delays in completing this venture.
David C. Chapman to Zebulon Weaver, December 24, 1935

David C. Chapman to Zebulon Weaver, January 3, 1936

Zebulon Weaver to David C. Chapman, January 6, 1936
In this letter Weaver mentions he feels that acquiring 400,000 acres would allow the Smokies to be established as a completed park and that he was confident it would be open within the year. He also mentions following up on the matters with Daniels, Cam, and if possible Secretary Ickes.
David C. Chapman to Zebulon Weaver, January 11, 1936

David C. Chapman to Zebulon Weaver, January 24, 1936

In this letter Weaver discusses the source of the allotted funds. He also states he was sorry that Cam’s role was being misunderstood by McKeller while people in North Carolina thought he was spending money on Tennessee
Germline mutations in the oncogene EZH2 cause Weaver syndrome and increased human height.
No full textThe biological processes controlling human growth are diverse, complex and poorly understood. Genetic factors are important and human height has been shown to be a highly polygenic trait to which common and rare genetic variation contributes. Weaver syndrome is a human overgrowth condition characterised by tall stature, dysmorphic facial features, learning disability and variable additional features. We performed exome sequencing in four individuals with Weaver syndrome, identifying a mutation in the histone methyltransferase, EZH2, in each case. Sequencing of EZH2 in additional individuals with overgrowth identified a further 15 mutations. The EZH2 mutation spectrum in Weaver syndrome shows considerable overlap with the inactivating somatic EZH2 mutations recently reported in myeloid malignancies. Our data establish EZH2 mutations as the cause of Weaver syndrome and provide further links between histone modifications and regulation of human growth

Correspondence between Zebulon Weaver, Phillip W. Ayres, James G. K. McClure Jr., and Reuben B. Robertson, 1925-1926
No full textZebulon Weaver (1872-1948) was a lawyer and U.S. Representative from western North Carolina. He was a member of the North Carolina Park Commission and was involved in the land acquisition process that went towards establishment of the Great Smoky Mountain National Park and development of the Blue Ridge Parkway.
This set of seven letters-correspondence between Zebulon Weaver, Phillip W. Ayres, James G. K. McClure Jr., and Reuben B. Robertson-reflect differences in opinion regarding establishment of a national park in the Smoky Mountain area. While Weaver supports the creation of a national park, the others favor the creation of a national forest in the area which will serve conservation and industry interests such as lumber.
Following are brief summaries of each letter: Phillip W. Ayres to Reuben Robertson, December 24, 1925
In this letter Ayres commends Robertson’s pamphlet on the proposed Smoky Mountain National Park. Ayres ends his letter by asking Robertson for copies of the latter’s pamphlet to be distributed amongst the members of the Society for Protection of New Hampshire Forests and their New England delegates in the Congress.
James G. K. McClure to Zebulon Weaver, January 7, 1926
In this letter McClure refers to enclosing a copy of the letter received by Reuben Roberston which would interest Weaver regarding possibilities of combining park and forest features.
Zebulon Weaver to James G. K. McClure, January 15, 1926
In this two page letter Weaver points out having a national forest instead of a national park in the Smoky Mountain area would lead to numerous similar demands for national forests by other states. Additionally, a national park created in the Smokies would most likely serve the same purpose of a national forest and a solution can be worked out that would be satisfactory to both supporters and opponents of the national park idea.
Reuben Robertson to Zebulon Weaver, January, 18, 1926
In this letter Robertson mentions receiving a letter from Mr. Ayers reflecting the sentiment prevailing in New England regarding the establishment of the Smoky Mountain National Park.
James G. K. McClure to Zebulon Weaver, January 18, 1926
In this letter McClure clarifies to Weaver that Mr. Robertson was in favor of the museum area of the national forest, to be possibly financed by lumber interests, but that the area be open to forest practices.
Zebulon Weaver to Reuben Robertson, January 20, 1926
In this three page letter Weaver states it would be impossible to set aside the Smoky Mountain Area as a national forest and yet provide it with intensive development for recreational and museum purposes as suited to a national park.
Zebulon Weaver to James G. K. McClure, January 20, 1926
In this letter Weaver emphasizes that his position, with regards to the establishment of the Smoky Mountain National Park, is in line with the future good of North Carolina and hopes differences of opinion can be resolved

In this letter addressed to Weaver, Cammerer, Director of the National Park Service, lets Weaver know in response to the latter’s enquiry that while it was not possible to identify the allotments made to North Carolina and Tennessee separately, or about developments in the park, the Park Service would like to see the development of the North Carolina side of the park boundary extended to Little Tennessee River and establishing park headquarters in both North Carolina and Tennessee
