The material\n         relates to the \n          Smith family of \n          Staunton , the \n          Lewis family of \n          Sweet Springs (now \n          West Virginia ) and the \n          Cochran family of \n          Charlottesville and \n          Staunton .","Folly Farm was founded by \n          Joseph Smith in 1818 and is located about\n         two miles south of \n          Staunton on Route 11. It has a serpentine\n         wall which was designed by \n          Thomas Jefferson .","Correspondence of the \n          Cochran family is mainly concerned with\n         family relationships. A few letters relate events in the Civil\n         War. An October 17, 1861 letter speaks of an overcoat factory\n         founded by \n          Staunton women. In a letter to \n          Maggie Cochran (July 1, 1862) the victory\n         over McClellan at \n          Frasyers Farm is described. 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.

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.

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.
