New Philadelphia: an archaeology of race in the heartland
Abstract
New Philadelphia, Illinois, was founded in 1836 by Frank McWorter, a Kentucky slave who purchased his own freedom and then acquired land on the prairie for establishing a new -and integrated --community.McWorter sold property to other freed slaves and to whites, and used the proceeds to buy his family out of slavery.The town population reached 160, but declined when the railroad bypassed it.By 1940 New Philadelphia had virtually disappeared from the landscape.In this book, Paul A. Shackel resurrects McWorter's great achievement of self-determinism, independence, and the will to exist.Shackel describes a cooperative effort by two universities, the state museum, the New Philadelphia Association, and numerous descendents to explore

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
