The collection contains correspondence, financial\n         and legal papers, printed material, and miscellaneous related\n         papers. Correspondence and business papers comprise the bulk\n         of the collection but there is a significant amount of\n         material relating to the operations of the Twelfth Virginia Militia Brigade from 1790\n         to 1842. A genealogy of the Leftwich family may be found in Campbell Chronicles and Family Sketches: Embracing the History of Campbell County, Virginia 1782-1926 by Ruth H. Early.","Leftwich was the son of \n          Augustine Leftwich (?-1795) and was born\n         in Bedford County, Virginia. His brothers included \n          James Leftwich,  \n          Jesse Leftwich,  \n          Augustine Leftwich Jr.,  and \n          Jabez Leftwich . His own son, \n          Jack Leftwich,  and five grandchildren are\n         mentioned in the family correspondence: \n          Joel B. Leftwich,  \n          Sarah A. Leftwich,  \n          Mary L. Leftwich (Fuqua),  \n          Ann Leftwich (Goode) and \n          Ethelinda Leftwich . Most of the\n         correspondence concerns local and family events. There is an\n         interesting group of letters between Joel B. Leftwich and his\n         friends concerning college life at Randolph-Macon College during the 1840's\n         and their perceptions of the women they were courting.","Correspondence concerning Virginia politics during the early\n         nineteenth century in Richmond (principally letters from Jabez\n         to Joel Leftwich) begins in the year 1806. One letter of\n         interest concerns the itinerary for the visit by the Marquis\n         de Lafayette in 1824. Leftwich, as were many of his Bedford neighbors, was a supporter of the old Whig Party; his correspondents include House of Delegates\n         member \n          William Campbell,  Senator \n          Isaac Otey,  \n          P. M. Goggin,  \n          Walter Taylor,  and General \n          Joseph Martin who discusses President \n          Thomas Jefferson 's opinion concerning the\n         maintaining of a standing army (April 17, 1803). Leftwich\n         himself served as a member of the Virginia General Assembly\n         and a few of his letters pertain to his legislative career as\n         represented by an April 4, 1841 letter to President \n          John Tyler recommending the appointment of\n          William Norvell as U.S. consul at Rio de Janeiro.","Also present are several writings and speeches by Leftwich\n         on a variety of subjects including the Revolutionary War, and\n         the need for religious conversion of Indians. Joel B. Leftwich\n         was a member of a debating society and his speeches on\n         temperance, good memory, and other topics are present in these\n         papers. Leftwich himself subscribed to Niles Weekly Register\n         and several issues from 1815 to 1839 are present in this\n         collection. Of special interest are manuscript notes on the\n         Virginia Convention called for the purpose of ratifying the\n         Federal Constitution in June 1788; these notes consist of\n         remarks made by such participants as Patrick Henry and James\n         Madison.","The financial and legal aspects of Leftwich's life had two\n         major components: as a gentleman farmer and horse breeder and\n         as a justice of the peace for Bedford County. Bills and receipts from\n         1789 to 1843 are in the collection along with tax statements\n         for several members of his family regarding horses and slaves.\n         Horses were of great concern to the family and there are\n         numerous mentions in the correspondence on their trade,\n         breeding, and racing. There are several items pertaining to a\n         stud horse named \"Pilgrim\" which had been purchased in 1795\n         from \n          Daniel Nance of Lincoln County, North Carolina for the sum\n         of five hundred dollars. Other papers include a bill of sale\n         as to the horse's pedigree and a broadside attesting to his\n         value and price.","Tax statements for the year 1802 depict Joel Leftwich as\n         the owner of seven slaves for which he paid a tax of $13.90\n         (the tax for \"Pilgrim\" was ten dollars). Other documents\n         pertain to the hiring of his slaves, and legal dispensations\n         of them for the payment of debts, 1796-1826. Among these is a\n         complaint against a slave named \n          Bill who was owned by Jesse Leftwich. The\n         slave had shot a dog belonging to his owner's brother\n         Augustine and Joel Leftwich, as justice of the peace, issued a\n         warrant for his arrest. Legal documents including wills,\n         indentures, subpoenas, arrest warrants and other related\n         materials are in this group of papers. One group of letters\n         described the apprehension of a man believed to have been be\n         insane and of his transfer to a lunatic asylum. The remaining\n         items are primarily concerned with Leftwich's routine duties\n         as a justice of the peace.","Leftwich's military service is represented by militia\n         returns, muster rolls, general and brigade orders, drill\n         parade memorandum, and courts-martial papers. His brother,\n         Jabez, who later became a member of Congress, served with him\n         as a brigade inspector. Notable correspondents include \n          William Henry Harrison,  \n          William Barbour,  \n          Claiborne W. Gooch,  and \n          Richard Crooks . Leftwich began his\n         military career during the Revolutionary War when he enlisted\n         as an ensign and fought at the battles of Germantown, Camden, and Guilford Court House where he was wounded.\n         During the War of 1812 the Virginia militia was called to the\n         defense of Richmond following the burning of Washington, D.C.\n         on August 24, 1814. Upon the death of General Joseph Martin,\n         Leftwich was elected by the Virginia General Assembly as a\n         brigadier general of the Twelfth Brigade of militia which\n         consisted of the 4th, 10th, 18th, 43rd, 53rd, 64th, 91st, and\n         110th regiments. He commanded a force of militia under William\n         Henry Harrison, commander of the Army of the Northwest during\n         the war. A group of letters between the two men provides\n         information on a little-known event. Harrison apparently\n         ordered Leftwich to continue the building of an eight-acre\n         stockade on the Maumee River at Fort Meigs, Ohio. He disobeyed orders by\n         departing for home before Harrison's arrival and the fort's\n         completion. As a result, American forces were defeated near\n         the area but Leftwich's military career was undamaged.","In the correspondence for the 1820's and 1830's are\n         numerous invitations to Leftwich requesting his presence at\n         military dinners, barbecues, and honorary functions. In later\n         years Leftwich, a major general of militia, sought to have his\n         federal military pension increased and \n          William Leftwich Goggin,  a Whig who\n         represented a district in Bedford County in Congress,\n         presented a petition on his behalf to that body. General\n         Leftwich died on April 20, 1846, in Bedford County.","The collection is arranged chronologically in three series:\n         I. Military Papers, II.

He served in the Confederate Army, and in 1872 became major-general of the 3rd Division of the Virginia Militia. A graduate of Virginia Military Institute and University of Virginia Law School, Roller was the first non-Pennsylvanian president of the Pennsylvania German Society (1909-1910). Roller also served four sessions in the Virginia State Senate and was the first president of the Harrisonburg-Rockingham Historical Society. He pursued interests in local and religious history, ammassing a considerable collection of books and papers. Most of these items were dispersed, however, during the course of the twentieth century.","The donor, Margaret Grattan Weaver (1905-2001), was a member of two of the most distinguished families in Rockingham County, the Rollers and the Grattans. She was known throughout the Shenandoah Valley for her involvement in civic, historic, and religious organizations including the National Trust for Historic Preservation, Harrisonburg-Rockingham Historical Society, and the Margaret Grattan Weaver Foundation, which she founded in 1997.
