At Home

Lovie’s marriage takes her to the North Carolina town of Washington, where she takes a job with the Beaufort County Health Department and starts attending home births on the side. Lovie describes working under the granny law, given that North Carolina had no law at the time to regulate the practice of nurse-midwifery. At her job, she faces opposition from nursing colleagues prejudiced against midwifery who claim she is taking their profession “back to the dark ages.” Her prejudices against hospital births deepen after she has two babies at home and two in the hospital. This chapter also discusses Lovie’s departure from the health department in 1957 to embark on a solo home birth practice and chronicles the death of her husband, Marshall Shelton.

A thumbnail sketch of Lovie Beard Shelton, a self-styled legend from Beaufort County, North Carolina, who was the first nurse-midwife to practice in the state. The reader meets a woman so taken by the central birth story of the Christian gospels that she keeps a mule in her son’s back yard to remind her of the story of Mary riding on a donkey into Bethlehem to give birth to Jesus; Lovie also speculates that a midwife was present at Jesus’s birth but that the Bible “forgot to put [her] in there.” In 1996 folklorist and narrator Lisa Yarger meets Lovie for the first time while working on the exhibit, “Health and Healing Experiences in North Carolina,” for the North Carolina Museum of History. When Yarger arrives at Shelton’s home in the town of Washington, NC for their first interview, the reader glimpses the mix of fascination and unease that characterizes the relationship between the two women throughout the book.

The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between alcohol use and recreational boating activities. Two hundred eleven ( n = 211) boaters were surveyed at three boating access locations in Beaufort County, North Carolina. The survey questionnaire consisted of fifteen questions designed to obtain information on boat operators and their use of alcoholic beverages while engaging in boating activities. Prevalence and amount of alcohol use while boating were significantly associated ( p < .05) with the type of activity engaged in. Among those boaters who had received some type of boating safety education, a higher prevalence of alcohol use while boating was observed. The prevalence and amount of alcohol use while boating were found to be significantly ( p < .05) associated with the location (public versus private) of boating access. In light of the findings, it is apparent that boating alcohol education and legislation for the North Carolina boating population need assessment and revision. The implications of the findings could have far-reaching effects upon education and prevention among the recreational boating population, particularly if further research in this area supports these findings.
