Avery Drive area drainage improvement
No full texttextThe area of study is the Avery Drive drainage area. The objective of these projects is to alleviate frequent flooding at the Avery Drive neighborhoods. RC&A designed two options for improving the Avery Drive drainage area. Option one increases the capacity of the existing sewer system, and option two constructs a new storm drain system along Simon Street while keeping the existing system in place. Although both options offer preliminary solutions for alleviating flooding, the designs are unviable due to the lack of data that was available for the study. The following research will prove that RC&A fulfilled its contractual obligation of practicing due diligence by recommending further investigation to obtain valuable data for a complete and successful final design, rather than providing a solid recommendation based on existing data.Engineering Managemen

Rebecca Avery letter, Memphis, 1846
No full textLetter from Rebecca Avery and other members of her family at Memphis, Tennessee, to her daughter Amanda A. Avery, c/o Mrs. Holcolm, La Grange, Tennessee, written on November 13, 1846. The other family members include Amanda\u27s sister Cornelia Estelle, an unidentifiable author and cousin Bob. Rebecca Avery notes how tired she is with her six student lodgers and two day boarders. “I hope you will catch a smart beau, for I want you all married.” Estelle (Stella) complains of a cough and wonders if it is consumption. Says she is tired looking after the boarders also. The unidentifiable writer notes that “poverty is a most niggardly rascally tormenting pestiferous scamp of a thing – that sticks tighter and bites harder than a thousand musketoes in a Mississippi swamp could possibly do.” Amanda Avery (1828-1916) was the daughter of Nathan Avery (1792-1846), a physician born in Lebanon, New York, who practiced in Bolivar and Memphis, and Rebecca Jones Rivers (1793-1847), whom he married in Montgomery County, Tennessee, in 1818. Their children included: William Thomas (1819-1880), Elizabeth Edmunds (1824-1916, who married Minor Meriwether), and Cornelia Estelle (1830-1919). Amanda married Nathaniel Macon Trezevant (1829-1912), a lawyer, in 1848.https://digitalcommons.memphis.edu/speccoll-mss-shelbycountytn2/1045/thumbnail.jp
