About the <a href="https://lawrencehistory.org/">Lawrence History Center (LHC)</a> Founded in 1978 as the Immigrant City Archives by German immigrant Eartha Dengler, the Lawrence History Center’s mission is to collect, preserve, share, and animate the history and heritage of Lawrence and its people. Currently in their fifth decade, LHC seeks to better serve a community that is rapidly changing due to immigration and changes in the local economy. The past few years have marked enormous growth for LHC as they move from being an organization that ‘collects and preserves’ stories of the city to one that animates these stories for current residents, researchers, and visitors to Lawrence through rich and varied programming, the strength of our collections and the power of the history of an immigrant city on the rise.

OBLIGATION I, __________ in the presence of these members now assembled do promise and say that I will support, enforce, and abide by th e Constitution and Laws of the Portuguese American Civic League of Massachusetts and the By-laws of this Council; that I will keep secret the b usiness of the League and of this Council; that I will never take advantage of or sacrifice any member of the League for personal gain or profit; that I will do all that I can to promote the well being of our people and the cause of the Portuguese American Civic League of Massachusetts; I will propose no one for membership whom I do not sincerely believe worthy thereof; I will always be ready to assist in all endeavors designed to advance our people in the civic and economic life of the community. So h elp me, God. (At this point the President extends his right hand to the American flag). As Citizens of th e United States we believe in THE AMERICAN'S CREED "I believe in the United States of America, as a government of the people, by the people. for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign Nation of many sovereign States; a perfect union, one and inseparable ; �established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes. I, therefore, believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its constitution, to obey its laws; to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies." I now direct your attention to another flag beside this platform. It is the flag of Portugal. Your duty as good Americans requires that you he ever mindful of those whose sacrifices made it possible for us to have and to enjoy the privileges and blessings of America. We are descendants of a great race which has given to history many honored names. Daring Portuguese mariners led the world in exploration and made the discovery of America possible. The fame of those hardy and courageous mariners will live through the ages. - It is fitting therefor that we should honor and cherish the land of our fathers. Portugal is a small hut beautiful land; many of its hills are covered with luxuriant forests; many fruits thrive in vast orchards and vineyards and about one-third of its area is in farms. There are great cities, too, and deep harbors, from which Portuguese ships sailed to establish vast colonies in all oarts of th e world. Portuiral has been an independent country since the twelfth century and its colonial dominion today is over twenty-six times the area of the homeland. It is proper that we should honor the banner which led the way across the seven seas to tlie everlasti ng glory of its people. So beside our platform we place the hanner of Portugal; proudly it stands beside the flag of the United States, symbolic of honor and achieve- ment. As loyal Americans we love the American flag no less, in honoring and respecting the land of our fathers and its flag. I now declare you to he members of this Association.

When, in 1853, the six year old town received its charter as a city, a Portuguese barber, Andrew Mideros, was already established in a barber shop at the corner of Lawrence and Common Street, and lived, with his family, at 11 Bradford Street, wher,e, in 1856, he paid a tax of $41.02, at the rate of $7.60 per $1 ,000. Lawrence at the time had a population of about 16,000, and, with the exception of a few Germans, the residents of the city were of English, Irish and Scotch extraction. The Portuguese have the distinc tion of 1 eading all the other European groups to this community at that time. The cornerstone of the Portuguese Church of Sts. Peter and Paul was laid on September 30, 1906 , with elaborate ceremonies. It was dedicated on August 4. 1907. During the year 1930, MesfSrS. Joseph P. Correira, of New Bedford, Jose Bettencourt, of Cambridge, and John Sousa, of Lowell, JOHN B. SEARS interested Mr. John B. Sears, of Lawr{!nce, in organizing a Non-Partisan Civic Association. M~. Sears. realizing t~e necessity fo r such an organizaticln to · promote friendship, educat10n, umty, and social welfar.e of the Portuguese-A meri,can people of Greater Lawrence, and it~ suburbs, immediately called a general meeting cf all Portuguese. Portuguese-A mericans, Portuguese Clubs and Societ;,es, and under the direction 0£ Mr. Sears, now known as the Father of the Lawrence Councils the PortugueseAmerican Civic Association was organized in 1930. ' A year later in 1931, the, Ladies' Council was organized, and we are proud of the fa_c~ that we were one of the six councils to have organized the Portuguese-A merican C1v1c League of Massa.chusett s which number twenty-seven councils throughout the state today. . The La~rence councils took the initiative in organizing the Junior Boys' and Girls' Councils, a Junior Boys' Fife and Drum Corps, a_ .hmior Girls' Baton Team, and a Portugu_ese sch?ol, and has progressed rapidly sinc,e its beginning, starting with a membership of thirty and increasing to over five hundred including the Ladies', Men's, Junior Girls' and Boys' Councils.· · · · · · ' · · Ou~ main activ/ties are in t aking part in all civic affairs of the community, state and _nation, p~omotmg interest in American naturalization amongst our people, conductmg a Christmas basket fund for the needy and other charitable affairs. . Mr. Manuel Sears was elected the first president of the Lawrence Men's Council m 1931; followed by Clarence Andrews, 1932; Fred Couto, 1933-34; Jeffrey Vasconcelos, 1935-36; Manuel Sousa, Jr. 1937 · and Manuel Sears 1938. M;s·. Jessie Espinola 'was the first president 'elected in the Lawrence Ladies' Council m the year 1932, she also serv·e d in 1933-34, followed by Mrs. Elsie Foley, 1935-36; Mrs. Jessie Espinola, 1937 ; and Miss Ezilda Cardoza, 1938.

This collection reflects the organization of the local Portuguese American community from the start of the 20th century through the 1990s. Items focus on the Portuguese American Civic League, Holy Ghost Society, and Saint Peter and Paul's Church. About the <a href="https://lawrencehistory.org/">Lawrence History Center (LHC)</a> Founded in 1978 as the Immigrant City Archives by German immigrant Eartha Dengler, the Lawrence History Center’s mission is to collect, preserve, share, and animate the history and heritage of Lawrence and its people. Currently in their fifth decade, LHC seeks to better serve a community that is rapidly changing due to immigration and changes in the local economy. The past few years have marked enormous growth for LHC as they move from being an organization that ‘collects and preserves’ stories of the city to one that animates these stories for current residents, researchers, and visitors to Lawrence through rich and varied programming, the strength of our collections and the power of the history of an immigrant city on the rise.
