It was also based on donations from wealthy private landowners. <a href="/wiki/Stephen_Mather" title="Stephen Mather">Stephen Mather</a>, the first NPS director, saw a need for a national park in the southern states, and solicited proposals in his 1923 year-end report.

However, the legislation also required that no federal funds would be used to acquire the land.

The land that became Shenandoah park was scenic, mountainous, and had also lost about half of its trees to the <a href="/wiki/Chestnut_blight" title="Chestnut blight">Chestnut blight</a> (which was incurable and affected trees as they reached maturity). However, it had been held as private property for over a century, so many farms and orchards existed. After Byrd became governor and convinced the legislature to appropriate $1 million for land acquisition and other work, Carson and his teams (including surveyors and his brother Kit who was Byrd's law partner) tried to figure out who owned the land. They found that it consisted of more than 5,000 parcels, some of them inhabited by tenant farmers or squatters (who were ineligible to receive compensation). Some landowners, including wealthy resort owner <a href="/w/index.php?title=George_Freeman_Pollock&action=edit&redlink=1" class="new" title="George Freeman Pollock (page does not exist)">George Freeman Pollock</a> and Luray Realtor and developer L.

Carson's brother suggested that Virginia's legislature authorize condemnation by counties (followed by arbitration for individual parcels) rather than condemn each parcel. Some families accepted the payments because they needed the money and wanted to escape the subsistence lifestyle. Nearly 90 percent of the inhabitants worked the land for a living: selling timber, charcoal, or crops. They had previously been able to earn money to buy supplies by harvesting the now-rare chestnuts, by working during the apple and peach harvest season (but the drought of 1930 devastated those crops and killed many fruit trees), or by selling handmade textiles and crafts (displaced by factories) and moonshine (illegal after <a href="/wiki/Prohibition_in_the_United_States" title="Prohibition in the United States">Prohibition</a> started). </p><p>However, Carson and the politicians did not seek citizen input early in the process, nor convince residents that they could live better in a tourist economy. Instead, they started with an advertising campaign to raise the funds, and courthouse property evaluations and surveys. Upon Mather's death in 1929, the new NPS director, <a href="/wiki/Horace_M._Albright" title="Horace M. Albright">Horace M.

Although the Skyline Drive right-of-way was purchased from owners without condemnation, the costs of the acreage purchased trebled over initial estimates and the acreage decreased to what Carson called a "fish-bone" shape and others a "shoestring".<sup id="cite_ref-16" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-16"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>16<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> Although Byrd and Carson convinced Congress to reduce the minimum size of Shenandoah Park to just over 160,000 acres (250.0 sq mi; 647.5 km<sup>2</sup>) to eliminate some high-priced lands, in 1933 newly elected President <a href="/wiki/Franklin_D._Roosevelt" title="Franklin D.

At that time, in <a href="/wiki/Jim_Crow_laws" title="Jim Crow laws">Jim Crow</a> Virginia, racial segregation was the order of the day. In its transfer of the parkland to the federal government, Virginia initially attempted to ban African Americans entirely from the park but settled for enforcing its segregation laws in the park's facilities.<sup id="cite_ref-SNPS_27-0" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SNPS-27"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>27<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p><p>By the 1930s, there were several concessions operated by private firms within the area that would become the park, some going back to the late 19th century. These early private facilities at Skyland Resort, <a href="/wiki/Panorama_Resort" title="Panorama Resort">Panorama Resort</a>, and <a href="/wiki/Swift_Run_Gap" title="Swift Run Gap">Swift Run Gap</a> were operated only for whites. By 1937, the Park Service accepted a bid from Virginia Sky-Line Company to take over the existing facilities and add new lodges, cabins, and other amenities, including <a href="/wiki/Big_Meadows_Lodge" class="mw-redirect" title="Big Meadows Lodge">Big Meadows Lodge</a>. Under their plan, all the sites in the parks, save one, were for "whites only". Their plan included a separate facility for African Americans at Lewis Mountain—a picnic ground, a smaller lodge, cabins and a campground. The site opened in 1939, and it was substantially inferior to the other park facilities. By then, however, the Interior Department was increasingly anxious to eliminate segregation from all parks. Pinnacles picnic ground was selected to be the initial integrated site in the Shenandoah, but Virginia Sky-Line Company continued to balk, and distributed maps showing Lewis Mountain as the only site for African Americans. During World War II, concessions closed, and park usage plunged. But once the War ended, in December 1945, the NPS mandated that all concessions in all national parks were to be desegregated. In October 1947 the dining rooms of Lewis Mountain and Panorama were integrated and by early 1950, the mandate was fully accomplished.<sup id="cite_ref-SNPS_27-1" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-SNPS-27"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>27<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="Social_history">Social history</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Shenandoah_National_Park&action=edit&section=7" title="Edit section: Social history"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>Particularly after the 1960s, park operations broadened from nature-focused to include social history.
