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.

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.

Nicholas was born in Williamsburg, Virginia where he attended the College of William and Mary. According to Nicholas's entry in the Biographical Directory of the United States Congress , he served in the American Revolutionary War as commander of George Washington's Life Guard until the unit disbanded in 1783.

His father migrated to Virginia; his mother was the daughter of wealthy Virginia landowner, Robert \"King\" Carter of Corotoman . Born January 28, 1728/9, both parents were dead by 1734. He studied law at the College of William and Mary and practiced in the general court under the royal government. He served in the House of Burgesses, 1755-61 as the representative from York County, and from 1766-1775 as the representative of James City County, and was Treasurer for the colony of Virginia, 1766-1775. He was a member of the Virginia General Assembly from 1776 to 1778 and in 1779 was appointed to the high court of chancery. Nicholas married Anne Cary, daughter of Wilson Cary of Warwick County in 1751 and the couple had four daughters and six sons.","George Nicholas, born in Williamsburg about 1754, was the son of Robert Carter Nicholas, treasurer of Virginia from 1766 to 1776, and a great grandson of Robert \"King\" Carter. He attended the College of William and Mary and became a noted attorney. Nicholas was a lieutenant colonel in the Continental army but spent much of his time in Baltimore and did not participate in any significant engagements. During service in the House of Delegates in 1778-1779, 1781-1782, 1783, and from 1786 to 1788, the last three terms representing Albemarle County, Nicholas became friendly with James Madison. Elected to the Virginia Ratification Convention of 1788, Nicholas followed Madison's lead and spoke in favor of ratification of the proposed new Constitution. Soon after the convention, he moved west to Kentucky, where he had a distinguished career as an attorney, as a leading member of the Kentucky Constitutional Convention of 1792, and as the first attorney general of the state and professor of law at Transylvania University. Nicholas wrote important letters on western affairs to Madison and to Thomas Jefferson, which George Washington also read, and tried to convince the federal government to increase its military presence in the West to protect settlers from Indian incursions and to secure westerners' access to the Mississippi River.

A letter to \n          Mittie Cochran (September 2, 1861)\n         mentions an engagement near \n          Fairfax . \n          Joseph S. Cochran attended the \n          University of Virginia and a letter from\n         him (October 7, 1890) mentions his impressions of Professors \n          [Albert Henry] Tuttle and \n          [John William] Mallet .","Letters between \n          John Lewis Cochran and his mother \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran deals\n         chiefly with family matters. The letter of September 7, 1857\n         mentions the status of their business operations. An\n         interesting letter (June 27, 1848) gives a view of slavery and\n         abolitionists. \n          Nannie Cochran 's death and its effects is\n         mentioned in August 20, 1863.","Letters between \n          Howe Peyton Cochran and his mother \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran are about\n         personal affairs and the Civil War. The early letters concern \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's attendance of the \n          Hanover Academy where he was very bored\n         and often homesick except when he traveled to \n          Richmond . Some interesting Civil War\n         letters are July 27, Sept 5, 14, \u0026 20, 1861. \n          Howe Peyton Cochran left the active\n         service when a substitute was bought for him (May 23, 1862). A\n         n.d. letter mentions \n          Monticello hospital being condemned due to\n         Typhoid fever. The letter of August 16, 1863 mentions the\n         deaths of \n          Nannie Cohran and \n          Maggie Cochran .","Letters between \n          Willie Lynn Cochran and his mother \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran were written\n         while \n          Willie Lynn Cochran attended school in \n          Brownsburg and mostly contain pleas for\n         more letters from home.","Letters between \n          Howe Peyton Cochran and his wife \n          Nannie L. (Carrington) Cochran (married\n         December 18, 1860), written during the Civil War, are chiefly\n         personal in nature but many contain a little information about\n         the war. Some of the more important letters are as follows.\n         His letter of January 5, 1861 describes the commanding\n         officers of \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment ( \n          1st regiment Virginia Artillery ) which\n         included General Magruder, Colonels Sulakowski, \n          Tom Cobb , \n          Howell Cobb , Montagne, Ward, and Major\n         Brown. Letters of December 8, 11, 13, \u0026 16 detail\n         preparations for an attack that never occurred. Letters of\n         February 24, 25 discuss the problems in the company and an\n         expedition that did not start. The letters of March 1862 also\n         give the problems of the company and preparations for a large\n         battle near \n          Yorktown . The letters of April 1862\n         contain references to the skirmishes occurring at \n          Yorktown . The letters of May 9 and 14,\n         1862 gives a sketch of the battle of \n          Williamsburg which \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment did not\n         participate in. Nearly every letter also contains a plan to\n         get out of the service or at least out of his present company\n         and into an office job: Some of the schemes include becoming a\n         teacher at \n          Randolph Macon , becoming a clerk in the\n         war department, or joining his brother \n          James Cochran 's unit. A son ( \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , named for \n          Nannie Cochran 's brother who died during\n         the war) was born on July 31, 1863, and \n          Nannie Cochran died, apparently as a\n         result of complications from childbirth, on August 11,\n         1863.","Joseph D. Cochran 's application for a \n          University of Missouri chemistry chair\n         mentions his teachers (August 8, 1890) while at the \n          University of Virginia and \n          College of Richmond . The letter of August\n         21, 1890 states he received references from Professors \n          [John William] Mallet , \n          [Francis Perry] Dunnington , \n          [George Frederick] Holmes , and \n          [Ormond] Stone of the \n          University of Virginia , Professor Puryear\n         of the \n          College of Richmond , and his present\n         congressman \n          [Henry St. George] Tucker .","In Letters to \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , two stirring\n         accounts of the virtue of \n          Nannie Cochran and her death are given on\n         the first birthday of \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , July 31,\n         1864.","In Letters to \n          Henry Cochran family affairs are\n         discussed. An October 11, 1862 letter mentions prices of basic\n         foods and how the state is covered with blood, \"Turn whichever\n         way you may nothing meets your eye, but maimed and bleeding\n         soldiers.\" A January 15, 1863 letter mentions the death of \n          Maggie Cochran from Typhoid Fever and\n         pneumonia. On March 18, 1863, there is a reference to the\n         battle of \n          Culpepper . A March 31, 1863 letter\n         mentions houses and hospitals being destroyed to use the wood\n         for fuel. An April 16, 1863 letter mentions the prices of\n         food.","Letters to \n          Howe Peyton Cochran contain more letters\n         about family affairs. Howe was perusing a teaching job at \n          Randolph Macon and the letters of November\n         20, \u0026 27, 1861 mention the peculiarity of the trustees who\n         wished for their teachers to be Methodist and in the military.\n         A letter of April 14, 1862 mentions the death of \n          Campbell Carrington ( \n          Nannie Cochran 's brother) after the\n         battle of \n          Cournif on April 11, 1862.","Letters to Colonel and Mrs. \n          James C. Cochran include correspondence\n         between their sons \n          John L. Cochran , \n          Joseph D. Cochran , and daughter \n          Anne Cochran who went to \n          Gainesville, Florida because of \n          John Cochran 's ill health in 1886. The\n         letters give the progression of \n          John Cochran 's sickness which did not\n         improve substantially and eventually caused his death in\n         February 1887 after his return to \n          Staunton .","Letters to \n          John Cochran contains an interesting\n         letter (February 17, 1830) on the price and selling of\n         hogs.","Letters to \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran contain\n         letters from her brother \n          Thomas Preston Lewis who served with the \n          War Department in the 1850's. There are\n         two interesting letters: January 5, 1852 which mentions the\n         visit of a Magyar to \n          Congress who apparently impressed\n         everyone, and the concern of the American government over \n          Napoleon Bonaparte who was coming to power\n         in \n          France ; and, March 6, 1859 which mentions\n         the factional wars going on in congress and the affect it had\n         on the treasury.","The first few letters to \n          Nannie (Carrington) Cochran are from\n         relations and friends unable to attend her and \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's wedding. The letter\n         of June 10, 1861 is from \n          John Lewis Cochran and contains very\n         interesting Civil War information, including the Union's\n         treatment of prisoners.","The letters to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis have been removed\n         from a letter book containing mostly business letters. There\n         is an index which has been placed at the back of the second\n         folder. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received the right to\n         practice law in \n          Virginia on September 3, 1847. He received\n         appointments in the \n          census bureau (October 8, 1850 -#48), and\n         later the \n          War Department based on recommendations by\n          Alexander Hugh Holmes Stuart (November 15,\n         1850.) \n          Thomas Preston Lewis ' ancestors fought in\n         the battle of \n          Point Pleasant and an attempt had been\n         made to have that battle declared the first of the\n         revolutionary war (August 24, 1858 -#1). A no date letter (#8)\n         contains an inventory of debts \n          Thomas Preston Lewis has at a store and\n         gives prices. Letters of December 29, 1853 (#16 and #20) are\n         introduction letters written by \n          John Buchanan Floyd . October 21, 1851\n         (#48) is a letter from \n          William Sparrow . March 6, 1866 (#159)\n         states that \n          Thomas Preston Lewis lost all land in the\n         war and is now broke. Letters of February 14, 1866 (#161),\n         January 21, 1867 (#162) concern \n          Thomas Preston Lewis trying to collect on\n         his debts. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis attempted to have his\n         political disability resulting from service with the\n         confederacy removed (February 25, 1869 -#166, January 24, 1870\n         -#174, January 29, 1870 -#175.) Apparently this attempt was\n         successful because \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received help from \n          John F. Lewis in getting an appointment\n         (October 6, 1869 -#169, March 29, 1870 -#183.) \n          John F. Lewis had assisted \n          Thomas Preston Lewis before getting him\n         appointed as an assistant to the registrar in 1867 (September\n         28, 1867 -#189.) December 23, 1869 (#168) is from \n          B. F. Ballard and mentions that he will\n         call for a new \n          West Virginia constitution. Three letters\n         concern the sale of land held in \n          Iowa which \n          Thomas Preston Lewis got from his debt\n         collection (July 13, 1869 -#171, May 12, 1868 -#173, and July\n         25, 1869 -#174.) An item dated April 20, 1871 (#180) is a\n         notice placed by \n          Thomas Preston Lewis to bring all claims\n         for the pensions of veterans of the War of 1812. An August 21,\n         1871 (#196) letter contains an analysis of \n          Rawley Springs in \n          Rockingham County, Virginia . Letters of\n         December 7, 1870 (#204,) February 4, 1873 (#204,) and December\n         18, 1874 (#206) refer to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis starting and running\n         a school for boys. The school must not have been too\n         successful because the letters of November 12, 1873 and\n         December 1874 (both #207) mention relatives sending what money\n         they can to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis . On September 10,\n         1874 (#209) there is an interesting letter on the \n          Florida school system.","Letters to \n          Ann M. Peyton from her sister \n          Margaret Lynn (Lewis) Cochran mention the \n          Cochran family 's move from \n          Staunton to \n          Charlottesville (October 24, 1826.) A\n         letter in June 1836 mentions the death of their sister\n         Mary.","Letters to \n          Joseph Smith contain many applications for\n         loans. \n          Joseph Smith served in the \n          General Assembly from December 1, 1817 to\n         February 26, 1818 (December 2, 1817.) There is a letter dated\n         January 26, 1832 from \n          R. S. Brooke which concerns the debate in\n         the \n          General Assembly over slavery and the\n         conflict abolition has with personal property and\n         compensation. An item of January 13, 1860 values the land held\n         by \n          Joseph Smith to be $74,900.","Letters to \n          Joseph Smith from \n          William Widdifield are mainly concerned\n         with the collection of a debt from \n          David Paul Brown . A letter of March 3,\n         1862 mentions \n          Joseph Smith 's brothers \n          Abraham Smith and \n          Silas H. Smith .","Appointments contain some of the appointments and\n         promotions of the families. \n          James Cochran was appointed justice of the\n         peace in \n          Augusta county in 1798. There are \n          Joseph Smith 's military promotions while\n         a member of \n          Virginia's 32nd militia . \n          James Cochran was appointed Postmaster of \n          Folly Mills in 1874.","Business Papers contain bills, receipts and promissory\n         notes. One bill of June 15, 1815 is from \n          Joseph Smith to the \n          United States for determining the number\n         of taxable people and taxable items in \n          Augusta county ; the total number of\n         taxable people was 589. \n          Joseph Smith was a life member of the \n          Virginia Agricultural Society (October 11,\n         1854.) Also there are five \n          South Carolina bonds issued after the\n         Civil War, but never cashed in.","Essays and Poetry include a poem lamenting the death of \n          Elizabeth Battaile Smith (November 17,\n         1810), a poem about an insane hospital in \n          Boston (March 1830), an obituary of \n          Magdalene Crawford (May 21, 1849), and\n         lecture notes to teach Physics (n.d.)","French Spoliation claims represent the attempt to get money\n         for the damages done by the French before 1800. The \n          United States , however, had exonerated\n         the French from having to pay so many felt the \n          Federal government should pay the\n         damages.","Inventories of Debts due \n          Joseph Smith contain detailed lists of\n         everyone and every business which owed \n          Joseph Smith money.

Some of the more important letters are as follows.\n         His letter of January 5, 1861 describes the commanding\n         officers of \n          Howe Peyton Cochran 's regiment ( \n          1st regiment Virginia Artillery ) which\n         included General Magruder, Colonels Sulakowski, \n          Tom Cobb , \n          Howell Cobb , Montagne, Ward, and Major\n         Brown. Letters of December 8, 11, 13, \u0026 16 detail\n         preparations for an attack that never occurred. Letters of\n         February 24, 25 discuss the problems in the company and an\n         expedition that did not start. The letters of March 1862 also\n         give the problems of the company and preparations for a large\n         battle near \n          Yorktown . The letters of April 1862\n         contain references to the skirmishes occurring at \n          Yorktown .

Nearly every letter also contains a plan to\n         get out of the service or at least out of his present company\n         and into an office job: Some of the schemes include becoming a\n         teacher at \n          Randolph Macon , becoming a clerk in the\n         war department, or joining his brother \n          James Cochran 's unit. A son ( \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran , named for \n          Nannie Cochran 's brother who died during\n         the war) was born on July 31, 1863, and \n          Nannie Cochran died, apparently as a\n         result of complications from childbirth, on August 11,\n         1863.","Joseph D.

There\n         is an index which has been placed at the back of the second\n         folder. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received the right to\n         practice law in \n          Virginia on September 3, 1847. He received\n         appointments in the \n          census bureau (October 8, 1850 -#48), and\n         later the \n          War Department based on recommendations by\n          Alexander Hugh Holmes Stuart (November 15,\n         1850.) \n          Thomas Preston Lewis ' ancestors fought in\n         the battle of \n          Point Pleasant and an attempt had been\n         made to have that battle declared the first of the\n         revolutionary war (August 24, 1858 -#1). A no date letter (#8)\n         contains an inventory of debts \n          Thomas Preston Lewis has at a store and\n         gives prices. Letters of December 29, 1853 (#16 and #20) are\n         introduction letters written by \n          John Buchanan Floyd . October 21, 1851\n         (#48) is a letter from \n          William Sparrow . March 6, 1866 (#159)\n         states that \n          Thomas Preston Lewis lost all land in the\n         war and is now broke. Letters of February 14, 1866 (#161),\n         January 21, 1867 (#162) concern \n          Thomas Preston Lewis trying to collect on\n         his debts. \n          Thomas Preston Lewis attempted to have his\n         political disability resulting from service with the\n         confederacy removed (February 25, 1869 -#166, January 24, 1870\n         -#174, January 29, 1870 -#175.) Apparently this attempt was\n         successful because \n          Thomas Preston Lewis received help from \n          John F. Lewis in getting an appointment\n         (October 6, 1869 -#169, March 29, 1870 -#183.) \n          John F. Lewis had assisted \n          Thomas Preston Lewis before getting him\n         appointed as an assistant to the registrar in 1867 (September\n         28, 1867 -#189.) December 23, 1869 (#168) is from \n          B. F. Ballard and mentions that he will\n         call for a new \n          West Virginia constitution. Three letters\n         concern the sale of land held in \n          Iowa which \n          Thomas Preston Lewis got from his debt\n         collection (July 13, 1869 -#171, May 12, 1868 -#173, and July\n         25, 1869 -#174.) An item dated April 20, 1871 (#180) is a\n         notice placed by \n          Thomas Preston Lewis to bring all claims\n         for the pensions of veterans of the War of 1812. An August 21,\n         1871 (#196) letter contains an analysis of \n          Rawley Springs in \n          Rockingham County, Virginia . Letters of\n         December 7, 1870 (#204,) February 4, 1873 (#204,) and December\n         18, 1874 (#206) refer to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis starting and running\n         a school for boys. The school must not have been too\n         successful because the letters of November 12, 1873 and\n         December 1874 (both #207) mention relatives sending what money\n         they can to \n          Thomas Preston Lewis .

There is a letter dated\n         January 26, 1832 from \n          R. S. Brooke which concerns the debate in\n         the \n          General Assembly over slavery and the\n         conflict abolition has with personal property and\n         compensation. An item of January 13, 1860 values the land held\n         by \n          Joseph Smith to be $74,900.","Letters to \n          Joseph Smith from \n          William Widdifield are mainly concerned\n         with the collection of a debt from \n          David Paul Brown .

There are \n          Joseph Smith 's military promotions while\n         a member of \n          Virginia's 32nd militia . \n          James Cochran was appointed Postmaster of \n          Folly Mills in 1874.","Business Papers contain bills, receipts and promissory\n         notes. One bill of June 15, 1815 is from \n          Joseph Smith to the \n          United States for determining the number\n         of taxable people and taxable items in \n          Augusta county ; the total number of\n         taxable people was 589. \n          Joseph Smith was a life member of the \n          Virginia Agricultural Society (October 11,\n         1854.)

The \n          United States , however, had exonerated\n         the French from having to pay so many felt the \n          Federal government should pay the\n         damages.","Inventories of Debts due \n          Joseph Smith contain detailed lists of\n         everyone and every business which owed \n          Joseph Smith money. The amounts were\n         considerable, some reaching as high as $134,000.","Legal documents contain mostly deeds and a few court case\n         decisions.","Slave Lists list all the slaves owned by \n          Joseph Smith and are divided into those\n         which are hired out and those which remain at home. A n.d.\n         item lists the amount spent on some of the slaves for\n         Christmas gifts.","Miscellaneous material includes a confirmation certificate\n         of \n          Ann (Price) Smith (June 5, 1811), lottery\n         tickets (1812), report cards of \n          Campbell Carrington Cochran (1872), a\n         survey attempting to promote the new South (1894), and\n         business cards of \n          Joseph Smith and Dr. \n          Henry Cochran ."],"physloc_html_tesm":["\u003cphysloc/\u003e"],"physloc_tesim":[""],"names_ssim":["University of Virginia.
