   Extractions: About Us Initiatives Pioneer Profiles Building Rental ... Contact Us Submitted by Sandy Dean My great-grandfather, William Stafford, the roots of the Stafford family in the Lethbridge area, was born to a family of five older siblings in Straiton, Ayrshire, Scotland on November 15, 1842. In Auchinleck Village on December 31, 1863 the 21-year-old William married a 16-year-old, Jane Gibbs. Sometime between mid-1871 and mid-1873 William and Jane, with three children, emigrated to Westville, Nova Scotia, where he was hired as a miner by the Acadia Coal Company. Entrance to No. 1 Drift Mine with William Stafford right and an employee, McLean,on the left. The object is an air-powered cutting device; the date is about 1883. (Courtesy of City of Lethbridge Archives) In June 1883, William Stafford returned to Nova Scotia to collect the remainder of his family and return to the west. The development of the underground mine with a steady increase in coal production proceeded well. By 1891, with the building of the initial railway, a second narrow gauge railway some 120 miles south to Great Falls, Montana, together with the widening of the Lethbridge-Dunmore rail line to standard gauge, the Alberta Railway and Coal Company (successor to the NWC and N Co.) had earned 1,116,288 acres of land grants in southern Alberta. In 1893 an initial formal agreement with the Mormons for an irrigation development was entered into. In the late 1890s the St. Mary irrigation project was completed with 92 miles of canals constructed.

   Extractions: I had known William Stafford for over twenty years before I met himknown him, that is, in the way any reader comes to know an author, holding his ideas in my hands, believing his physical self somehow incapable of standing beside his work. We were, strangely enough, introduced by a series of coincidences, but it seemed afterward as if some great design in the universe continually suggested that I meet the man behind the writing. I never vigorously sought Stafford's counsel through his books, but it didn't matter: his writing continued to materialize in an astounding number of publications. As a student of poetry in the 1970's it was impossible to pick up an anthology or little magazine without encountering one of Stafford's poems. As he told me much later, the best advice he followed was to send more material into the mail than anyone could possibly imagine. He dryly suggested that he'd flooded the market.

   Extractions: I have inherited an oval letter tin painted by my mother before I was born. Recently she has returned to this same style known as tole painting. Some people describe it as decorative but that's not seeing very far into things. This tin of mine has always been for lettersboth coming and going. Almost 40 years worth. All these poems have spent the night in there. Those feral and yet sensuous flowers she so carefully shaped in muted colors express a desire to see the world as one's own place. Not the way history or the news or worriers say it is. Not resigned to any of those absolute or scientifically proven versions of reality. Simply recognizing that the world you love is the one you allow yourself to see. So she paints on bread boxes, trivets, letter holders and a hundred other household and everyday items maybe in part so others know her world exists, but mostly for herself. Just one of the ways she remembers herself. And I imagine how we remember her. This little tribute started off early in 1993 intending to become a birthday gift for William's 80th the following January. After his death the shape changed some but not the intention or destination. What you have now is a piece of lost mail pursuing an elusive address. One that is nowhere and, as Dorothy Stafford says, "is everywhere now." Above all I hoped for a birthday gift pleasing to him and heartfelt by those contributing.

    Extractions: William Stafford (1914-1993) B orn in Hutchinson, Kansas on January 17, 1914, William Edgar Stafford grew up with parents who listened to their children’s ideas. They also loved to read, and would "luxuriate in stories." In terms of literary influences, Stafford consistently claimed his mother to be most significant. His father’s generosity comes through in a story William told of being on a walk with him and seeing a hawk land in a cottonwood across a field. When they approached the tree, his father said, "Bill, maybe your eyes are better than mine. Maybe you will be the one to see the hawk." By such moves his father brought him right alongside him, even as a "partner." William Stafford This closeness with his parents and his decision to be a conscientious objector to the Second World War, place him outside the turbulent waters of the majority of the literature during the first fifty years of his life. It’s interesting to note several other poets who were born that same year, 1914: Randal Jarrell, Dylan Thomas, and John Berryman. Jarrell’s work was described as the "poetry of desperation," Thomas’s chronic alcoholism brought about his early death, and Berryman threw himself from a bridge. Not to make light of the very real pain these men experienced, but the contrast to Stafford’s life is stark. At some point he left the "steady" Kansas land and went into the world. Yet within that new vulnerability he drew on his past to make a kind of shelter in the storm. His art is anything but ignorant of the aggression and menacing nature of the 1940's.

    Extractions: More Than Has Ever Been Found In response to the many people looking for some of Stafford's work online, here are 17 of his poems, some well-known and others that have not received as much attention. Reading these I'm reminded how much faith Stafford had in his own process of writing, in his own life. That kind of trust stands in stark contrast to much of the fretful and jittery teaching and criticism that often goes unchallenged these days. For new and experienced poets alike there may be no stronger tonic for the many ills that assail the writing life than Stafford's poems and his many essays about writing.

    Extractions: William Stafford Memorial Page! Born in Hutchinson, Kansas, in 1914, William Stafford was one of our most prolific and celebrated poets. He was a witness for peace, and for honesty, recognizing in his writing that "justice will take us millions of intricate moves." Author of over fifty books, and recipient of the National Book Award for Traveling through the Dark William Stafford was a long-time friend of Graywolf Press and he published Smoke's Way , a collection of poems from limited editions, with Graywolf in 1983. Publishing The Way It Is in 1998, five years after Stafford's death, brought us in even closer contact with Stafford's family, friends, colleagues, students, and fans of which, we soon realized, there are a countless number. William Stafford often wrote a poem each day, including on the day of his death. We are particularly grateful to have this last poem.

    Extractions: About William Stafford Richard Howard Born in 1914, Stafford was drafted in 1940, and severed as a conscientious objector throughout the war (forestry, soil conservation in Arkansas and California); in 1948, Stafford published his master's thesis, a book about conscientious objectors, Down in My Heart (whose title collides meaningfully with that of his first book, West of Your City ), and it was not until he was forty-six that that first book of poems was ready. From Alone With America Donald Hall 2. Stafford is a poet of ordinary life. His collected poems are the journal of a man recording daily concerns. That is why his daily method of writing is relevant to his life's work. You could say that his poetry is truly quotidian: he writes it every day; it comes out of every day. And the poet of the quotidian did not find it necessary to become maudit, to follow Hart Crane to the waterfront or Baudelaire to the whorehouse or even Lowell to McLean's. He got up at six in the morning in a suburb of Portland and drained the sump. 3. If we attend to chronology, William Stafford is a member of the tragic generation of American poets. Stafford was born in 1914, the same year as Weldon Kees and Randall Jarrell and John Berryman, three suicides; Delmore Schwartz was born in 1913, and Robert Lowell in 1917. How wonderfully the survivor contrasts. What makes him so different? Like Lowell, Stafford was a C. O. [conscientious objector] during the Second War. Like Berryman and Kees he came from the Midwest. But Stafford is a low-church Christian far from the rhetorical Catholicism that Lowell and Berryman entertained. I suspect that his survival is related not merely to his Christianity but to his membership in a small, embattled, pacifist sect.
