In 1842, Jacob and Amy purchased the property known as Sully Plantation in Chantilly, Virginia, which was built by Richard Bland Lee between 1787-1794, and soon after invited Alexander to leave New York and help with the running of the property in Virginia. After moving to Sully, Alexander married Pheobe (also spelled \"Phebe\") Sweet (1824-1898) in 1845 and finished construction of their new home, known as \"Little Sully,\" in 1851. The couple would go on to have four children. Eldest daughter Margaret Amy (also known as Maggie) was born in 1848 and married Thomas W. Lee in 1873, Stephen Sweet was born in 1857 and married Henrietta Lucas in 1891, Henry Clement was born in 1859, and youngest George Alexander was born in 1867.","Despite belonging to the Quaker faith (also known as The Religious Society of Friends), whose members actively fought for abolition, records indicate that the Haight family used enslaved labor during their time at Sully. Ownership of the property remained in the Haight family, although transferring formally to Alexander's sister Maria and her husband James Barlow in 1852, and remained so throughout the Civil War, during which both Union and Confederate soldiers crossed the property. In 1869, the family sold Sully to Stephen Shear, but most members of Alexander and Phoebe's branch of the Haight family remained in and around Fairfax County.","In 1886, Jacob and Amy's son Henry Clement married Emma Jane Young, daughter of Union Soldier John M. Young (1831-1865), and the couple would go on to have four children of their own: Helen Hill (1887-1977), Elizabeth Barlow [later Hamill] (1889-1974), Mary [later Millan] (1890–1964), and Alexander Levi (1891-1981).","Processed by Special Collections Research Center staff.

The collection contains 3 series.","Series 1: Correspondence (1838-1920) includes sent and received personal and professional correspondence, including letters, cards, and postcards. The bulk of the correspondence represents personal communications between members of the Haight family, both with each other and with family friends, including a number of letters sent by Helen Hill Haight during her time volunteering with the American Red Cross during World War I. Additional correspondence includes communications concerning business matters, such as correspondence to and from legal representatives, and a mix of original and reproduction copy letters sent by Union soldier John M. Young during the Civil War. This series is arranged alphabetically by non-Haight correspondent last name. In cases where a member of the Haight family sent a letter to another Haight, and both are already represented elsewhere in the series, letters are arranged alphabetically by the name of the recipient.","Series 2: Legal and financial documents (circa 1764-1948) includes personal and professional legal and financial records, most connected to members of the Haight family, including account ledgers, bank, registered letter, and tax receipts, formal and informal contracts and agreements, and other legal documents created by organizations within Fairfax County. Additional documents include Union Army passes issued to Alexander Haight during the Civil War, Alexander Levi Haight's Fairfax County draft classification card issued during World War I, a New York court summons for Stephen Sweet Haight, a California gold dig payment issued to George Sweet (brother of Phoebe Haight), currency notes, including Confederate paper money, and military orders issued during the Civil War. This series is arranged alphabetically either by last name of the subject or creator of the document or by title of the document.","Series 3: Photographs and ephemera (circa 1850s-1976) includes photographs, personal records, mementoes, and general ephemera created or collected by members of the Haight family.

Items are arranged chronologically by year of creation. Sub-series 2: Records and ephemera (circa 1862-1976) includes personal records and mementoes including programs, booklets, newspapers and clippings, poems, manuscripts, postcards, scrapbooks, and general ephemera items.

In 1842, Jacob and Amy purchased the property known as Sully Plantation in Chantilly, Virginia, which was built by Richard Bland Lee between 1787-1794, and soon after invited Alexander to leave New York and help with the running of the property in Virginia. After moving to Sully, Alexander married Pheobe (also spelled \"Phebe\") Sweet (1824-1898) in 1845 and finished construction of their new home, known as \"Little Sully,\" in 1851. The couple would go on to have four children. Eldest daughter Margaret Amy (also known as Maggie) was born in 1848 and married Thomas W. Lee in 1873, Stephen Sweet was born in 1857 and married Henrietta Lucas in 1891, Henry Clement was born in 1859, and youngest George Alexander was born in 1867.","Despite belonging to the Quaker faith (also known as The Religious Society of Friends), whose members actively fought for abolition, records indicate that the Haight family used enslaved labor during their time at Sully. Ownership of the property remained in the Haight family, although transferring formally to Alexander's sister Maria and her husband James Barlow in 1852, and remained so throughout the Civil War, during which both Union and Confederate soldiers crossed the property. In 1869, the family sold Sully to Stephen Shear, but most members of Alexander and Phoebe's branch of the Haight family remained in and around Fairfax County.","In 1886, Jacob and Amy's son Henry Clement married Emma Jane Young, daughter of Union Soldier John M. Young (1831-1865), and the couple would go on to have four children of their own: Helen Hill (1887-1977), Elizabeth Barlow [later Hamill] (1889-1974), Mary [later Millan] (1890–1964), and Alexander Levi (1891-1981).","Processed by Special Collections Research Center staff.

November 6, 2023. https://www.britannica.com/topic/The-Canterbury-Tales.","Written by Geoffrey Chaucer in Middle English between 1387-1400,  The Canterbury Tales  is a collection of stories set within a frame narrative centered around a pilgrimage to the shrine of Thomas Becket in Canterbury, Kent. Chaucer establishes the identities of these 30 pilgrims in \"The General Prologue\" where they gather at the Tabard Inn in Southwark, across the Thames from London, and agree to engage in a storytelling contest to pass the time during their journey to Canterbury. The use of pilgrims, who by design come together from a variety of backgrounds and social standings, as the storytellers allows for the inclusion of a wide variety of story genres. Chaucer's full plan for the book remains incomplete, with both some pilgrims' stories and the return journey missing from the existing version. ","William Blake was an English engraver, artist, and poet, perhaps best known for his collections \"Songs of Innocence\" (1789) and \"Songs of Experience\" (1794). Born in London on November 28, 1757, as a child Blake wanted to be an artist, so his father enrolled him in Henry Pars' Drawing School where he studied from 1767-1772. Following his studies, Blake was taken on as an apprentice by engraver James Basire (1730-1802) with whom he studied and lived for seven years, from 1772-1779, before beginning work as an independent engraver. Among his best known and most critically acclaimed engravings are his large-scale design of Geoffrey Chaucer's \"Canterbury Pilgrims\" in 1810, his 22 folio designs for the Book of Job in 1826, and his 7 large unfinished plates for Dante (1826-1827). Blake passed away on August 12, 1827 and is buried in London's Bunhill Fields, a burial ground for \"Nonconformists.\"","John Charlton, known professionally at J.G. Charlton, was a photographer and publisher based in Canterbury, England from circa 1893 through the 1920s, likely serving for some time as the official photographer of Canterbury Cathedral. Charlton initially took over the shop of fellow photographer John Bateman at 54 St. George's Street, before moving to 14 Mercery Lane circa the early 1900s. Charlton's studio specialized in portrait photography, reproduction prints of popular engravings of Chaucer's  The Canterbury Tales  by both William Blake and Thomas Stothard, and a variety of other Canterbury-based souvenirs.","Processing and finding aid completed by Meghan Glasbrenner from January-February 2024.","Printed, possible collotype, reproduction of \"Chaucers Canterbury Pilgrims\" by J.G.
