Mary Rupert was the daughter of Civil War veteran Daniel Rupert, a Federal artillerist assigned to defend Washington, D.C. during the war. The Greens eventually moved their young family to Foxburg, Pennsylvania on the Allegheny River. Their son James worked in the oil fields of Bradford, Pennsylvania as a teenager until he left for Pleasants County, West Virginia, drawn by the oil boom of 1898.","James E. Green married Edith Sarah Taylor in 1901. Edith was a native of St. Mary's, West Virginia and the daughter of Thomas Jefferson Taylor, owner of Orchard View Farms. James bought his first camera in 1900 and began photographing people and points of interest in the area. His favorite subjects were his family, which grew with the birth of four children, including James, Virginia, Jeanette, and Gladys. The economic depression of 1907-08 sent James and Edith Green back to Foxburg where James worked in a saw mill, but continued with photography.","James and Edith eventually moved back to West Virginia in the 1920s, this time to Edam in Tucker County where James continued working in a saw mill until it burned down in 1930. He spent the rest of his life farming until passing away in 1952. Photography seemed to be the one consistent and most enjoyable occupation of James Edwin Green's life.","Photographs by James Edwin Green of the Green family from western Pennsylvania, and Pleasants County, West Virginia, and related subjects. Includes over 500 glass plate negatives and 1 1/2 inches of film negatives documenting subjects from ca. 1900-1925 including: the James Edwin Green family of western Pennsylvania and Pleasants County, West Virginia; Grand Army of the Republic (GAR) reunions; Foxburg, Pennsylvania in ca. 1910-1920; agricultural subjects; brass bands; oil or gas derricks in Pleasants County or western Pennsylvania; railroads; St. Marys, West Virginia; and World War I (WWI). Also includes exemplars of commercial packaging of glass plate negatives and film negatives.","Many of his subjects include his wife, Edith Taylor Green, their children, James, Jr., Virginia, Jeanette, and Gladys. Other subjects include his parents, Thomas Bennett Green and Mary Rupert Green, and his siblings and in-laws. There are also pictures of the Daniel Rupert and Taylor familes. James Edwin Green's wife, Edith, was a member of the Taylor family of Pleasants County, West Virginia, whose farm is recorded in some of the images. Most of these photographs were taken outside their homes or in local settings.","Green also documented with his camera the 1909 Reunion of the 101st and 103rd Pennsylvania Regiments of the Grand Army of the Republic at Foxburg, Pennsylvania. These Pennsylvania regiments fought in the Civil War under General George McClellan in the 1862 Peninsula Campaign and the 'Seven Days Battle' for Richmond.","Item nos. 401-436 are apparently a systematic documentation of the town of Foxburg, Pennsylvania at some time between 1910 and 1920. There are images of the bank, barber shop, blacksmith, drug store, hotel, post office, etc. Other subjects includes street scenes, transportation, and portraits of residents.","Green also took pictures of 4th of July events, agricultural subjects (such as harvesting, livestock, etc.), brass bands, greeting card portraits with inscriptions, oil or gas derricks in Pleasants County or western Pennsylvania, railroad infrastructure in western Pennsylvania (images which apparently include family members who worked for the railroads), and St. Marys, West Virginia. The film negatives document James Edwin Green, Jr., as a soldier in World War I (WWI) and his time at Penn State College in the 1920s.","Green sometimes recorded subjects and dates to his glass plates. Some of the plates without such inscriptions were identified by the donor at the time of their acquisition; this data was recorded to the folders that the plates were placed in, and these folders have been retained in the collection.","In many cases photocopies of prints (made from the plates) were made to facilitate recording of detailed identification of multiple subjects in an image, often of people. This information can be found in the collection in box 15, folders 16a - 16d.","The collection also includes exemplars of commercial packaging of glass plate negatives and film negatives.","Permission to publish or reproduce is required from the copyright holder.

Lucy taught at Huntington High School from 1899-1913, and taught Latin and Classical Studies at Marshall College (now Marshall University) from 1914-1941. Marshall's Prichard Hall was named in her honor.","Louis Eckert Reed  (born October 1, 1899 in Wirt County, WV; died January 31, 1979 in Elizabeth, WV) served as a sergeant in the US Army during WWI, served as Administrative Assistant to Senator Chapman Revercomb, and worked as a prosecuting attorney in Wirt County, WV. He also wrote for  Atlantic Monthly .","James Franklin \"Jim\" Comstock  was born to Harry Clinton and Myrtle Blanche in Richwood, West Virginia on February 25, 1911. He married Miss Ola Stowers in Huntington, WV, on October 18, 1933; they would have two daughters, Sandra Ferguson and Elaine Nagy, and a son, Jay. In 1934, Comstock received B.A. from Marshall College (now Marshall University). From 1938-1942, he taught at Richwood High School and wrote for the  Clarksburg Telegram . He served in the U.S. Navy from 1944-1946, and upon returning home he founded the  Nicholas County News Leader  (originally  News Letter ) with Bronson D. McClung (1920-2004), a former student of his. On December 25, 1963, the  Nicholas County News Leader  combined with  Nicholas Republican ; in 1984, it became the  Richwood News Leader . Comstock remained an active part of the paper till his death on May 22, 1996.\n \n In 1957, Comstock founded the weekly  West Virginia Hillbilly  with McClung, and became its editor. The paper included feature articles, columns of special interest to West Virginians, book notes, and the \"Comstock Load,\" the editor's own column on the back page. Comstock first tried to sell the  Hillbilly  in 1976. In 1981, he sold it to the South Charleston Publishing Company. On February 25, 1986, he repurchased and began resuscitating the  Hillbilly . In 1992, he sold the  Hillbilly  to Sandy McCauley. In 2001, the  Hillbilly  ceased publication.","Comstock was involved in many endeavors in addition to his newspaper editing and reporting activities. In 1963, he ran unsuccessfully for Congress on the Republican ticket. He wrote, edited, and contributed to various books, including  Pa and Ma and Mr. Kennedy , a 50-volume  West Virginia Heritage Encyclopedia , and a collection of newspaper highlights entitled  Best of Hillbilly . He was also involved in republishing books by West Virginian authors. He campaigned to purchase and preserve author Pearl S. Buck's birthplace at Hillsboro, and he helped save the Cass Scenic Railroad. He also founded the University of Hard Knocks, a lighthearted honorary society that recognizes the accomplishments of people who have succeeded in life without a college degree.","Papers of James (\"Jim\") Franklin Comstock of Richwood, West Virginia, whose position as editor of the  West Virginia Hillbilly  and avocation as collector and advocate of all things West Virginia led to the preservation of much of the state's physical, visual, and textual history.

Lucy taught at Huntington High School from 1899-1913, and taught Latin and Classical Studies at Marshall College (now Marshall University) from 1914-1941. Marshall's Prichard Hall was named in her honor.","Louis Eckert Reed  (born October 1, 1899 in Wirt County, WV; died January 31, 1979 in Elizabeth, WV) served as a sergeant in the US Army during WWI, served as Administrative Assistant to Senator Chapman Revercomb, and worked as a prosecuting attorney in Wirt County, WV. He also wrote for  Atlantic Monthly .","James Franklin \"Jim\" Comstock  was born to Harry Clinton and Myrtle Blanche in Richwood, West Virginia on February 25, 1911. He married Miss Ola Stowers in Huntington, WV, on October 18, 1933; they would have two daughters, Sandra Ferguson and Elaine Nagy, and a son, Jay. In 1934, Comstock received B.A. from Marshall College (now Marshall University). From 1938-1942, he taught at Richwood High School and wrote for the  Clarksburg Telegram . He served in the U.S. Navy from 1944-1946, and upon returning home he founded the  Nicholas County News Leader  (originally  News Letter ) with Bronson D. McClung (1920-2004), a former student of his. On December 25, 1963, the  Nicholas County News Leader  combined with  Nicholas Republican ; in 1984, it became the  Richwood News Leader . Comstock remained an active part of the paper till his death on May 22, 1996.\n \n In 1957, Comstock founded the weekly  West Virginia Hillbilly  with McClung, and became its editor. The paper included feature articles, columns of special interest to West Virginians, book notes, and the \"Comstock Load,\" the editor's own column on the back page. Comstock first tried to sell the  Hillbilly  in 1976. In 1981, he sold it to the South Charleston Publishing Company. On February 25, 1986, he repurchased and began resuscitating the  Hillbilly . In 1992, he sold the  Hillbilly  to Sandy McCauley. In 2001, the  Hillbilly  ceased publication.","Comstock was involved in many endeavors in addition to his newspaper editing and reporting activities. In 1963, he ran unsuccessfully for Congress on the Republican ticket. He wrote, edited, and contributed to various books, including  Pa and Ma and Mr. Kennedy , a 50-volume  West Virginia Heritage Encyclopedia , and a collection of newspaper highlights entitled  Best of Hillbilly . He was also involved in republishing books by West Virginian authors. He campaigned to purchase and preserve author Pearl S. Buck's birthplace at Hillsboro, and he helped save the Cass Scenic Railroad. He also founded the University of Hard Knocks, a lighthearted honorary society that recognizes the accomplishments of people who have succeeded in life without a college degree.","Papers of James (\"Jim\") Franklin Comstock of Richwood, West Virginia, whose position as editor of the  West Virginia Hillbilly  and avocation as collector and advocate of all things West Virginia led to the preservation of much of the state's physical, visual, and textual history.

Slaughter (F232.E7S5 1985).","The early eighteenth century correspondence contains many\n         letters from \n          Henry Latane and his wife, \n          Anne Latane , London, England, to his\n         brother, \n          Lewis Latane (1672-1732) and his third\n         wife, \n          Mary (Deane) Latane (1685-1765), South\n         Farnham Parish, Essex County. Some of the letters are written\n         in French but the majority of them are in English. During the\n         1720s, Henry frequently advised Lewis to grow another crop\n         besides tobacco, saying that Europe could not consume all that\n         comes from America. In a letter of January 13, 1730, Henry is\n         \"impatient to know what the fate of Europe whether warr or\n         Peace everything seems to tend to a Crisis ...,\" possibly\n         referring to the trade conflict between England and Spain.","After her husband's death in 1732, Mary (Deane) Latane\n         managed the property that came to her and her children, with\n         the help of her cousin, \n          William Beverley (1698-1756). There are\n         several letters, 1733-1750, from Beverley discussing the\n         settlement of her husband's estate and the sale of her\n         tobacco. In addition, there are business correspondence, bills\n         of lading, invoices, and other papers concerning the sale of\n         tobacco.","Letters of interest include correspondence of \n          Spencer Roane (1762-1822), King and Queen\n         County, and \n          William Latane (1750-1811), Essex County,\n         July 1791-August 1792, concerning the deed and survey for the\n         \"Mount Clement Trail of Land,\" and another on July 25, 1804 re\n         the suit of Braxton vs Roane; letters on April 19, 1825, June\n         13, 1826, and November 18, 1826, from \n          James Montague , \n          Harden County, Kentucky , to friends in\n         Essex County, concerning various aspects of life in Kentucky\n         such as the conflict between anti-relief and relief parties,\n         tobacco sales, and prices of corn, flour, cotton, whiskey, et\n         al.; one on June 9, 1854, from Rev. \n          Henry W. L. Temple , Wayland, to \n          James Allen Latane , University of\n         Virginia, discussing Bishop \n          William Meade 's visit; and, several\n         letters, October 25, 1864, December 4, 1871, February 2 and\n         June 15, 1883, and June 13, 1885, from \n          Thomas S. Watson , Bracketts, chiefly to \n          Julia A. Holladay , \n          Botetourt County, Virginia , mentioning\n         news of family and friends, new dwellings built on Ionia, and\n         his being disqualified as a member of the legislature.","Letters pertaining to black history include one of December\n         10, 1772, from \n          Samuel Peachey, Jr. , \n          Occoquan Furnace , to William Latane,\n         Essex County, asking him to send a young black at Christmas\n         because the latter wants to learn the blacksmith trade; one of\n         November 10, 1788, from \n          Bartlett Williams , New Kent, to \n          William Latane , Essex County, complaining\n         about Latane's man Ephraim corrupting his blacks, and\n         requesting that he not be permitted to visit his plantation; a\n         circular, February 27, 1794, referring to the transportation\n         of slaves from Africa to the West-India islands; one of\n         February 28, 1809, from S. Chenault, Nelson County, Kentucky,\n         re the \"elopement\" of Franklin and his recovery by a Captain\n         Lafon who kept him in his possession for awhile;\n         correspondence between \n          Henry Waring Latane (1782-1860), Essex\n         County, and his brother-in-law, \n          John Temple ( -1812), Parkersburg, re the\n         death of Temple's father and the division of his slaves at\n         \"Goldberry,\" December 10, 1811 and January 8, 1812; and, one\n         of June 13, 1885, from \n          Thomas S. Watson , Bracketts, to \n          Julia A. Holladay , Botetourt County,\n         mentioning the poisoning of some children by a black\n         woman.","The business papers are comprised of accounts and\n         administrative and estate papers as well as general\n         correspondence and papers. The accounts are chiefly for\n         members of the Latane and Waring families, and, to a lesser\n         extent, for members of the \n          Allen family and \n          Temple family . The administrative and\n         estate papers concern the estates of \n          William Peachey ( -1700), \n          Lewis Latane (1672-1732), \n          Robert Payne Waring (-1799?), \n          William Latane (1750-1811), \n          John Temple ( -1812), \n          Lewis Dix ( -1815?), \n          James Allen ( -1820?), \n          Ann Latane ( -1820?), and \n          Henry Waring Latane (1782-1860). Also,\n         there are business papers pertaining to black history; and, a\n         separate itemized listing has been compiled.","The legal papers contain many indentures, land grants and\n         plats/surveys for lands in \n          Essex County , \n          King and Queen County , and \n          Rappahannock County . These papers are\n         helpful in determining ownership of lands held by the Latane\n         Family, \n          Roane Family , \n          Allen Family , and \n          Dix Family . In addition, there are copies\n         of wills for members of the Latane, Roane, Allen, and Dix\n         families. The wills also contain references to the division of\n         blacks among the families.","There are also genealogical, military, and religious\n         material. The military papers, 1814-1828, pertain chiefly to\n         James Allen's career as captain in the Virginia militia and\n         include abstracts of forage, regimental orders, receipt for\n         arms, detailed returns of arms accoutrements, and rosters of\n         officers and other personnel. Among the miscellaneous papers\n         is a small group of material concerning religious matters,\n         particularly having to do with \n          South Farnham Parish in Essex County.\n         Included are a letter, December 17, 1716, from \n          Alexander Spotswood to the vestry of the\n         parish re their decision to suspend \n          Lewis Latane from his ministerial office;\n         a hymn book belonging to \n          John Latane ; and, two letters about the\n         weakening of the Church in Virginia.","","University of Virginia.

The reverse features a representation of the Arms of Castile and Leon, but unlike the actual coat of arms featured on real Spanish coinage of the period, the lion and castle featured on the arms are reversed. Rather than having the lion in the lower left and upper right corners, they are in the lower right and upper left.

Two slides are also included with the cast. Another coin in this collection is the 1861 8 Reales coin. This original coin was minted in Guatemala and bares a portrait of Ferdinand VII on the obverse with the words DEI GRATIA (By the Grace of God). The reverse shows the two Pillars of Hercules surrounding the Spanish Crown and Coat of Arms, as well as the words HISPANIA ET IND REX (Ruler of Spain and the Indies). The coin is in good condition. One of the oldest coins in this collection is a 4 Reales coin, which was minted in Mexico City and dates to the Rule of Charles I of Spain. Charles united the kingdoms of Castille and Aragon into the Spanish empire, which was built on the wealth of the New World. The obverse features the Pillars of Hercules surrounding the number 4, which reveals the coin's denomination. The reverse features the coat of arms of the Kingdom of Castille and Leon; but not the coat of unified Spain which also features the heraldic symbols of Aragon and Navarre. This is typical of coins minted during this period, as Charles' mother, Joanna, was the Queen regent. It is in worn condition. The final coin in this group is an 8 reales coin, which is most likely a forgery. This 8 Reales coin appears to date from the reign of Philip II, but the reverse of the coin may reveal a different origin. The reverse features a representation of the Arms of Castile and Leon, but unlike the actual coat of arms featured on real Spanish coinage of the period, the lion and castle featured on the arms are reversed. Rather than having the lion in the lower left and upper right corners, they are in the lower right and upper left. The coin is marked with a visible P, indicating an origin in Lima, Peru or Potosi, Brazil. This inconsistency is not found on any other coins of this period minted in Peru or Potosi during this period.
