Please pardon our
dust... this website is under construction
We will be implementing several changes in the
upcoming weeks-- please check back soon!
To access the
old version of this site, please

Welcome to the Pioneer America Society:
Association for the Preservation of Artifacts and Landscapes
(PAS: APAL) website! We hope you like our new
facelift, and our many features that we now offer right here
online! PAS: APAL is an international, non-profit organization
that encourages the scholarly study and preservation of
buildings, sites, structures and objects representing the
history of the Americas and its material culture.
We are a small organization that encourages the sharing of ideas
and research across a variety of inter-disciplinary fields.
Direct application of this research by academicians and
professionals in the organization can help achieve the mission
of the society.
Our annual meeting is also a place to learn about a particular
region and enjoy the comradery that is inherent in a small
group. We also encourage student participation to keep the light
burning. If you have not already, join with us in documenting
the mundane, profane and insane elements of our culture.
Material culture is the resultant landscape of human activity.

Spring 2008

A Plea
for PAS: APAL Members’ Email Addresses:
Frank Ainsley, Secretary-Treasurer of
Pioneer America Society requests that all individual members
please send to him their up-to-date and correct email address.
It is much more economical for the PAS: APAL “mailings” to be
done electronically if possible. It’s faster and more efficient.
So if you have not received any emails from Frank in the last
few months, it’s because he doesn’t have your current email
address. You may have missed some important PAS: APAL items of
information, etc. SO PLEASE SEND AN EMAIL to
Frank at
ainsleyf@uncw.edu so you can be
added to his master address contact list for the society.
