Upon settling in Spotsylvania County, he adopted the anglicized surname Redd, married a niece of Governor Spottswood (Miss Moore), and had three sons: John Rufus, Thomas, and George.","His eldest son, Col. John Rufus Redd, was born in Spotsylvania County, educated in Virginia and England, served in the House of Burgesses, participated in the French and Indian Wars, and subsequently moved to Buckingham County. He married a granddaughter of Governor Spottswood and daughter of Captain Nathaniel Dandridge. He and his wife had eleven children – six sons and five daughters – and Col. Redd was wounded at the Battle of Camden (1780) during the Revolutionary War.","Major John Redd (b. October 20, 1755, Buckingham County, Virginia; d. August 11, 1850, Henry County, Virginia), the eldest son of Col. John Rufus Redd, relocated to Henry County (then part of Halifax County) at approximately age seventeen. He volunteered for military service at the outset of the Revolutionary War under Captain Bryce Martin, rose to the rank of Major of Cavalry, and was present at the surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown on October 19, 1781. He married Mary Waller, daughter of Col. George Waller, a fellow Revolutionary officer, and had ten children. He served as a representative of Henry County in the Virginia Legislature for approximately twenty years, including the 1798–1799 session. He resided at a property called Marrowbone in the southern portion of Henry County, where he was interred in a family cemetery. His will and estate documentation establish activity in the county from approximately the 1780s through his death.","Eugene Mason Redd (fl. c. 1835–1926) and James M. Redd (J.M. Redd) are the principal family figures documented in the later portions of this collection. Both are represented through agricultural account books (c. 1871–1915, 1901–1906, 1909–1919), receipts (c. 1896–1926), and papers related to the Virginia Electric Cooperative (c. 1899–1943). Estate documentation for James Redd extends the record to 1971.","Ethel Blaine Tompkins Redd connected the Redd family to the Tompkins and Blaine families. Her father, Metellas Woods Tompkins, is represented by papers dating to approximately 1890. Dr. Hamilton L. Blaine, whose documents and certificates span 1850–1917, is documented in association with the Blaine family line. The Redd and Tompkins family records (c. 1835–1948) reflect the combined households and shared property interests of these families.","The Redd family held the Bellevette home tract, for which a chain of custody is documented from approximately 1745 to 1972. Family members also participated in the United Daughters of the Confederacy, evidenced by a 1943 application in the collection.","This collection contains correspondence, deeds, estate indentures, account books, receipts notebooks, photographs, carte-de-visite, genealogical research and trees, clippings, a tintype, and ephemera, including wallets, a metal box, and a lock of hair documenting the Rose, Redd, and Claiborne families of Virginia. Names frequently appearing in papers include Eugene M. Redd and his son James Redd. Also included are Ezra Morrison, Mattie Tompkins, Clarence Redd, Jessie Redd McCarthy, Rachel Ayers, Blaine McCarthy Willett, John McCarthy, and the Blain family. The papers document genealogical research and track land purchase and holding, including the Bellevette, a Robert Rose property that has passed down to his descendants, in Nelson County. Also included is correspondence from the turn of the century regarding the Central Virginia Electric Cooperative, a private, not-for-profit cooperative that has provided electricity to customers.","Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library","English"],"collection_title_tesim":["Rose, Redd, and Claiborne family papers, 1771/2009"],"collection_ssim":["Rose, Redd, and Claiborne family papers, 1771/2009"],"level_ssm":["collection"],"level_ssim":["Collection"],"unitid_ssm":["MSS.16944","Archival Resource Key","/repositories/3/resources/1879"],"unitid_tesim":["MSS.16944","Archival Resource Key","/repositories/3/resources/1879"],"repository_ssm":["University of Virginia, Special Collections Dept."],"repository_ssim":["University of Virginia, Special Collections Dept."],"geogname_ssm":["Virginia -- History -- 19th Century","Virginia -- History -- 21st century"],"geogname_ssim":["Virginia -- History -- 19th Century","Virginia -- History -- 21st century"],"places_ssim":["Virginia -- History -- 19th Century","Virginia -- History -- 21st century"],"creator_corpname_ssim":["Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library"],"creators_ssim":["Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library"],"access_subjects_ssim":["Deeds -- United States","Genealogy","Account books"],"access_subjects_ssm":["Deeds -- United States","Genealogy","Account books"],"has_online_content_ssim":["false"],"physdesc_tesim":["Fair.

All Jefferson items in the possession of\n            the University of Virginia Library are now included; new entries are added as additional\n            Jefferson items are acquired by the Library.","The Calendar contains entries for all letters and\n            documents in our collections written by or to Jefferson; letters docketed by Jefferson;\n            19th century copies of Jefferson letters transcribed by family members; photomechanical\n            reproductions of some privately-held Jefferson letters, and of some Jefferson letters in\n            other institutions (most notably the correspondence with Tadeusz Kosciuszko in the\n            National Museum of Krakow, Poland), which are inaccessible to most researchers; and the\n            Peter Jefferson documents held by the Library.","In updating the Calendar we retained the basic format of\n            the earlier printed versions. A typical entry consists of the name of the writer, the\n            place from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter\n            is directed, followed by the date of manuscript. This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions. We have made no attempt to supplement entries\n            for materials acquired since 1970 with notes on the location of other copies or\n            additional citations of printed versions. The name of the University of Virginia Library\n            collection of which the manuscript is a part and the collection's accession number are\n            also included. The entry concludes with a summary of the text of the manuscript. Entries\n            from the 1950 and 1973 editions are followed by a bracketed number that was assigned for\n            purposes of indexing.","We have made several significant changes to the entries. The word \"slave\" replaces the\n            word \"servant\" in all cases where the editors were sure the individual indicated was a\n            slave. All photomechanical reproductions are given the generic label \"photostat.\"\n            Changes in ownership are noted when known. Each of Jefferson's architectural drawings is\n            listed individually with the corresponding \"Nichols number\" taken from Thomas Jefferson's architectural drawings / compiled and with\n            commentary and a check list by Frederick Doveton Nichols. -- 4th ed. - (Charlottesville\n            : Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, 1988, c1995.)","For more details about the original compilation of the Calendar, please see the Introduction to the\n               1950 Edition, below.","Edward Gaynor Ann L. S. Southwell March 2004","Introduction to the 1950 Edition","In preparing this calendar of the University's Jefferson manuscripts, Mrs. Thurlow and I\n            have freely made use of many people's work. Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the Calendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,in the Bulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,No. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the Calendarwhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.","Docketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.","All manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.","To the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication. The courtesy and patience of the\n            Administrator and of the members of the Council in connection with our unavoidable\n            delays in printing are particularly appreciated.","If this work had a dedication, it would be to Harry Clemons, who brought the Manuscript\n            Division into being, whose faith has a way of moving mountains, and to whom all of the\n            daily tasks of our staff are truly dedicated by our admiration and affection.","University of Virginia 1 October 1949 Francis L.

Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eThe typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eResearchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eEach entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eThe final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known.

Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language.

In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eOmitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eOne conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors.

The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student.

This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions.

Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.","To the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication. The courtesy and patience of the\n            Administrator and of the members of the Council in connection with our unavoidable\n            delays in printing are particularly appreciated.","If this work had a dedication, it would be to Harry Clemons, who brought the Manuscript\n            Division into being, whose faith has a way of moving mountains, and to whom all of the\n            daily tasks of our staff are truly dedicated by our admiration and affection.","University of Virginia 1 October 1949 Francis L.

All Jefferson items in the possession of\n            the University of Virginia Library are now included; new entries are added as additional\n            Jefferson items are acquired by the Library.","The Calendar contains entries for all letters and\n            documents in our collections written by or to Jefferson; letters docketed by Jefferson;\n            19th century copies of Jefferson letters transcribed by family members; photomechanical\n            reproductions of some privately-held Jefferson letters, and of some Jefferson letters in\n            other institutions (most notably the correspondence with Tadeusz Kosciuszko in the\n            National Museum of Krakow, Poland), which are inaccessible to most researchers; and the\n            Peter Jefferson documents held by the Library.","In updating the Calendar we retained the basic format of\n            the earlier printed versions. A typical entry consists of the name of the writer, the\n            place from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter\n            is directed, followed by the date of manuscript. This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions. We have made no attempt to supplement entries\n            for materials acquired since 1970 with notes on the location of other copies or\n            additional citations of printed versions. The name of the University of Virginia Library\n            collection of which the manuscript is a part and the collection's accession number are\n            also included. The entry concludes with a summary of the text of the manuscript. Entries\n            from the 1950 and 1973 editions are followed by a bracketed number that was assigned for\n            purposes of indexing.","We have made several significant changes to the entries. The word \"slave\" replaces the\n            word \"servant\" in all cases where the editors were sure the individual indicated was a\n            slave. All photomechanical reproductions are given the generic label \"photostat.\"\n            Changes in ownership are noted when known. Each of Jefferson's architectural drawings is\n            listed individually with the corresponding \"Nichols number\" taken from Thomas Jefferson's architectural drawings / compiled and with\n            commentary and a check list by Frederick Doveton Nichols. -- 4th ed. - (Charlottesville\n            : Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, 1988, c1995.)","For more details about the original compilation of the Calendar, please see the Introduction to the\n               1950 Edition, below.","Edward Gaynor Ann L. S. Southwell March 2004","Introduction to the 1950 Edition","In preparing this calendar of the University's Jefferson manuscripts, Mrs. Thurlow and I\n            have freely made use of many people's work. Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the Calendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,in the Bulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,No. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the Calendarwhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.","Docketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.","All manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student.

Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eThe typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eResearchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eEach entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eThe final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eSpecial attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the \u003ctitle type=\"simple\" render=\"doublequote\" href=\"\"\u003eCalendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,\u003c/title\u003ein the \u003ctitle type=\"simple\" render=\"italic\" href=\"\"\u003eBulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,\u003c/title\u003eNo. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the \u003ctitle type=\"simple\" render=\"doublequote\" href=\"\"\u003eCalendar\u003c/title\u003ewhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin.

J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eAll manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eIt will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eOmitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eOne conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors.

The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student.

All Jefferson items in the possession of\n            the University of Virginia Library are now included; new entries are added as additional\n            Jefferson items are acquired by the Library.","The Calendar contains entries for all letters and\n            documents in our collections written by or to Jefferson; letters docketed by Jefferson;\n            19th century copies of Jefferson letters transcribed by family members; photomechanical\n            reproductions of some privately-held Jefferson letters, and of some Jefferson letters in\n            other institutions (most notably the correspondence with Tadeusz Kosciuszko in the\n            National Museum of Krakow, Poland), which are inaccessible to most researchers; and the\n            Peter Jefferson documents held by the Library.","In updating the Calendar we retained the basic format of\n            the earlier printed versions. A typical entry consists of the name of the writer, the\n            place from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter\n            is directed, followed by the date of manuscript. This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions. We have made no attempt to supplement entries\n            for materials acquired since 1970 with notes on the location of other copies or\n            additional citations of printed versions. The name of the University of Virginia Library\n            collection of which the manuscript is a part and the collection's accession number are\n            also included. The entry concludes with a summary of the text of the manuscript. Entries\n            from the 1950 and 1973 editions are followed by a bracketed number that was assigned for\n            purposes of indexing.","We have made several significant changes to the entries. The word \"slave\" replaces the\n            word \"servant\" in all cases where the editors were sure the individual indicated was a\n            slave. All photomechanical reproductions are given the generic label \"photostat.\"\n            Changes in ownership are noted when known. Each of Jefferson's architectural drawings is\n            listed individually with the corresponding \"Nichols number\" taken from Thomas Jefferson's architectural drawings / compiled and with\n            commentary and a check list by Frederick Doveton Nichols. -- 4th ed. - (Charlottesville\n            : Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, 1988, c1995.)","For more details about the original compilation of the Calendar, please see the Introduction to the\n               1950 Edition, below.","Edward Gaynor Ann L. S. Southwell March 2004","Introduction to the 1950 Edition","In preparing this calendar of the University's Jefferson manuscripts, Mrs. Thurlow and I\n            have freely made use of many people's work. Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the Calendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,in the Bulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,No. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the Calendarwhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.","Docketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.","All manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.","To the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication. The courtesy and patience of the\n            Administrator and of the members of the Council in connection with our unavoidable\n            delays in printing are particularly appreciated.","If this work had a dedication, it would be to Harry Clemons, who brought the Manuscript\n            Division into being, whose faith has a way of moving mountains, and to whom all of the\n            daily tasks of our staff are truly dedicated by our admiration and affection.","University of Virginia 1 October 1949 Francis L.

All Jefferson items in the possession of\n            the University of Virginia Library are now included; new entries are added as additional\n            Jefferson items are acquired by the Library.","The Calendar contains entries for all letters and\n            documents in our collections written by or to Jefferson; letters docketed by Jefferson;\n            19th century copies of Jefferson letters transcribed by family members; photomechanical\n            reproductions of some privately-held Jefferson letters, and of some Jefferson letters in\n            other institutions (most notably the correspondence with Tadeusz Kosciuszko in the\n            National Museum of Krakow, Poland), which are inaccessible to most researchers; and the\n            Peter Jefferson documents held by the Library.","In updating the Calendar we retained the basic format of\n            the earlier printed versions. A typical entry consists of the name of the writer, the\n            place from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter\n            is directed, followed by the date of manuscript. This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions. We have made no attempt to supplement entries\n            for materials acquired since 1970 with notes on the location of other copies or\n            additional citations of printed versions. The name of the University of Virginia Library\n            collection of which the manuscript is a part and the collection's accession number are\n            also included. The entry concludes with a summary of the text of the manuscript. Entries\n            from the 1950 and 1973 editions are followed by a bracketed number that was assigned for\n            purposes of indexing.","We have made several significant changes to the entries.

S. Southwell March 2004","Introduction to the 1950 Edition","In preparing this calendar of the University's Jefferson manuscripts, Mrs. Thurlow and I\n            have freely made use of many people's work. Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the Calendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,in the Bulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,No. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the Calendarwhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.","Docketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.","All manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.","To the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication. The courtesy and patience of the\n            Administrator and of the members of the Council in connection with our unavoidable\n            delays in printing are particularly appreciated.","If this work had a dedication, it would be to Harry Clemons, who brought the Manuscript\n            Division into being, whose faith has a way of moving mountains, and to whom all of the\n            daily tasks of our staff are truly dedicated by our admiration and affection.","University of Virginia 1 October 1949 Francis L.

All Jefferson items in the possession of\n            the University of Virginia Library are now included; new entries are added as additional\n            Jefferson items are acquired by the Library.","The Calendar contains entries for all letters and\n            documents in our collections written by or to Jefferson; letters docketed by Jefferson;\n            19th century copies of Jefferson letters transcribed by family members; photomechanical\n            reproductions of some privately-held Jefferson letters, and of some Jefferson letters in\n            other institutions (most notably the correspondence with Tadeusz Kosciuszko in the\n            National Museum of Krakow, Poland), which are inaccessible to most researchers; and the\n            Peter Jefferson documents held by the Library.","In updating the Calendar we retained the basic format of\n            the earlier printed versions. A typical entry consists of the name of the writer, the\n            place from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter\n            is directed, followed by the date of manuscript. This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions. We have made no attempt to supplement entries\n            for materials acquired since 1970 with notes on the location of other copies or\n            additional citations of printed versions. The name of the University of Virginia Library\n            collection of which the manuscript is a part and the collection's accession number are\n            also included.

S. Southwell March 2004","Introduction to the 1950 Edition","In preparing this calendar of the University's Jefferson manuscripts, Mrs. Thurlow and I\n            have freely made use of many people's work. Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\".

All Jefferson items in the possession of\n            the University of Virginia Library are now included; new entries are added as additional\n            Jefferson items are acquired by the Library.","The Calendar contains entries for all letters and\n            documents in our collections written by or to Jefferson; letters docketed by Jefferson;\n            19th century copies of Jefferson letters transcribed by family members; photomechanical\n            reproductions of some privately-held Jefferson letters, and of some Jefferson letters in\n            other institutions (most notably the correspondence with Tadeusz Kosciuszko in the\n            National Museum of Krakow, Poland), which are inaccessible to most researchers; and the\n            Peter Jefferson documents held by the Library.","In updating the Calendar we retained the basic format of\n            the earlier printed versions. A typical entry consists of the name of the writer, the\n            place from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter\n            is directed, followed by the date of manuscript. This is followed by a brief physical\n            description of the manuscript (e.g. ALS; typescript; 19th century copy, number of pages)\n            and, for entries made between 1950 and 1973, information about the location of other\n            copies and citations to printed versions. We have made no attempt to supplement entries\n            for materials acquired since 1970 with notes on the location of other copies or\n            additional citations of printed versions. The name of the University of Virginia Library\n            collection of which the manuscript is a part and the collection's accession number are\n            also included. The entry concludes with a summary of the text of the manuscript. Entries\n            from the 1950 and 1973 editions are followed by a bracketed number that was assigned for\n            purposes of indexing.","We have made several significant changes to the entries. The word \"slave\" replaces the\n            word \"servant\" in all cases where the editors were sure the individual indicated was a\n            slave. All photomechanical reproductions are given the generic label \"photostat.\"\n            Changes in ownership are noted when known. Each of Jefferson's architectural drawings is\n            listed individually with the corresponding \"Nichols number\" taken from Thomas Jefferson's architectural drawings / compiled and with\n            commentary and a check list by Frederick Doveton Nichols. -- 4th ed. - (Charlottesville\n            : Thomas Jefferson Memorial Foundation, 1988, c1995.)","For more details about the original compilation of the Calendar, please see the Introduction to the\n               1950 Edition, below.","Edward Gaynor Ann L. S. Southwell March 2004","Introduction to the 1950 Edition","In preparing this calendar of the University's Jefferson manuscripts, Mrs. Thurlow and I\n            have freely made use of many people's work. Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the Calendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,in the Bulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,No. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the Calendarwhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.","Docketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.","All manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.","To the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication. The courtesy and patience of the\n            Administrator and of the members of the Council in connection with our unavoidable\n            delays in printing are particularly appreciated.","If this work had a dedication, it would be to Harry Clemons, who brought the Manuscript\n            Division into being, whose faith has a way of moving mountains, and to whom all of the\n            daily tasks of our staff are truly dedicated by our admiration and affection.","University of Virginia 1 October 1949 Francis L.

Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eThe typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eResearchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eEach entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eThe final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eSpecial attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the \u003ctitle type=\"simple\" render=\"doublequote\" href=\"\"\u003eCalendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,\u003c/title\u003ein the \u003ctitle type=\"simple\" render=\"italic\" href=\"\"\u003eBulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,\u003c/title\u003eNo. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the \u003ctitle type=\"simple\" render=\"doublequote\" href=\"\"\u003eCalendar\u003c/title\u003ewhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eDocketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eAll manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eIt will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eOmitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eOne conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eTo the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication.

Daily reference has been made to our\n            Jefferson Checklist, a chronological card-file of some sixty thousand of Jefferson's\n            manuscripts, and letters to and from him, now known to be extant in public and private\n            libraries, in manuscript and in print. This Checklist was begun by John Cook Wyllie more\n            than fifteen years ago, and has been expanded by many hands, particularly by a former\n            staff member, Mrs. Helen D. Bullock. The Checklist is now being duplicated, expanded,\n            and improved by Julian P. Boyd and the editors associated with him in the Princeton\n            University publication project. Copies of the Checklist in its final form may later be\n            made available at the Library of Congress as well as at the University of Virginia, and\n            I venture to express here the hope that it may be printed for the use of students\n            elsewhere. For it will contain much of value which must doubtless be omitted from\n            publication in the Papers.","The typescript calendar of our Jefferson Papers, prepared by Mrs. Bullock in 1941, has\n            been very useful here and at the Library of Congress, and particularly helpful in\n            preparing the present calendar for publication. Printing costs and other factors have\n            made necessary a more condensed form of entry in the present calendar. Since the\n            preparation of Mrs. Bullock's calendar, which included photostats in our collections,\n            our holdings of original manuscripts have nearly doubled. Photographic copies (more than\n            10,000 now being available in our reading room) have here been excluded except in a few\n            instances of manuscripts in private hands and county court houses, which in a number of\n            cases are the only known texts.","Researchers are warned that the length of an entry does not necessarily indicate our\n            judgment of the importance of the item. We have attempted to include all names of\n            persons and places. As a result, entries for certain legal documents are\n            disproportionately long. We have tried to mention all major subjects discussed in each\n            letter, but the reader who wants full details will be obliged to consult the original\n            manuscript or order a photographic copy.","Each entry contains two paragraphs, the second of which is a condensed summary of the\n            text of the manuscript, followed by a bracketed number for purposes of indexing. The\n            first paragraph contains all \"bibliographical data\" about the manuscript and all other\n            texts of it which are known to us from the data recorded and filed in our Jefferson\n            Checklist. Following the date in a typical entry is the name of the writer, the place\n            from which he writes, the name of the recipient, and the place to which the letter is\n            directed. Then follows a symbol (see list below) which tells whether the manuscript is\n            signed and whether or not it is written in the hand of the signer, with a statement of\n            the number of pages in the manuscript. If another text of the manuscript is known to us,\n            this information is then given as explicitly as possible. In some cases we can only say\n            \"another manuscript in DLC\" (Library of Congress; see list of abbreviations below);\n            often, however, we are able to state that the other manuscript is the recipient's copy,\n            a polygraph copy, a letterpress copy, a file draft, or an extract or copy by another\n            hand, either contemporary or later.","The final statement in each heading concerns known printed versions of the manuscript as\n            recorded in our Jefferson Checklist. Many of the published texts are inaccurate or\n            incomplete, as we indicate when known. All frequently cited publications are referred to\n            by symbols (as listed in the table below) and punctuation is simplified for convenience\n            in printing.","Special attention is invited to the case of \"printing\" which we indicate by the\n            following oft-recurring expression: \"Printed: B of R VI 372 (MS. in DLC)\". This means\n            that an abstract of another text of our manuscript (the other text usually being\n            Jefferson's file copy) is to be found in the Calendar of\n               Letters from Jefferson,in the Bulletin of the Bureau\n               of Rolls and Library of the Department of State,No. 6, Washington, 1894-1896\n            page 372, and that the manuscript so calendared is now in the Library of Congress.\n            Virtually none of the Jefferson manuscripts in the Bureau of Rolls (all of which are now\n            in the Library of Congress) were printed in full in the Calendarwhich appeared in volumes 6 (letters from Jefferson) and 8 (letters\n            to Jefferson) of the Bulletin. It is hoped that no student will be misled by this\n            type-saving method of entry. All other printings indicated are assumed to be complete\n            unless otherwise stated.","Docketing, and other brief endorsements on letters are indicated simply by the word\n            \"endorsed\" unless they appear to require special comment. \"Endorsed by T. J.\" indicates\n            that such an endorsement is in Jefferson's autograph. Spelling has normally been\n            corrected outside of direct quotations, and we have never hesitated to expand \"Mr.\n            Randolph\" to \"Thomas Mann Randolph\" when the identity is certain. Square brackets have,\n            therefore, been rather sparingly used to supply missing names, facts, and dates in the\n            headings which could be supplied with reasonable certainty. In summarizing the texts of\n            letters and other items, the main object has been brevity rather than any attempt to\n            reproduce the original language. Parentheses have been freely used in the summaries for\n            the provision of explanatory comment.","All manuscripts not otherwise designated are in our general collection of Jefferson\n            Papers. Others are listed in the heading of the entry as being in the McGregor Library\n            (which is the most important of the special libraries constituting the Division of Rare\n            Books and Manuscripts) or in any of our various collections of manuscripts which happen\n            to contain papers of Jefferson, such as the following: the Berkeley Manuscripts, the\n            Cabell Papers, the Carr-Cary Papers, the Cocke Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and\n            the Page-Walker Papers. Some of these special collections are not owned by the\n            University, but are on deposit for safekeeping and historical reference. Other privately\n            owned individual manuscripts on deposit are listed with the owner's name. Photographic\n            copies can be provided in most cases, but a few are subject to restrictions stipulated\n            by the owner.","It will be noted that we have included certain manuscripts of Jefferson's father which\n            have some relevancy to the career of the son. In addition to a few special photostats\n            already mentioned, a number of older transcripts of Jefferson's papers have also been\n            included. The most important of these are the copies and extracts made by Martha\n            Jefferson Randolph and her daughters and by Nicholas P. Trist during the decade\n            following Jefferson's death. These and other copies have been identified in the\n            headings. In a considerable number of cases, however, chiefly of copies which appear to\n            have been made by or for members of the family, we have had to fall back on the\n            expression, \"19th century copy\".","Omitted from this calendar are a number of papers in this library which were once in\n            Jefferson's possession, or closely associated with him, but which were not composed,\n            drafted, or endorsed by him. Such, for example, are the groups of legal papers,\n            1740-1759, which Robert Carter Nicholas turned over to him as attorney in 1771; a\n            correspondence of the Associates of the late Doctor Bray, 1757-1773, concerning the\n            Negro school at Williamsburg, sponsored by the Society for the Propagation of the\n            Gospel; correspondence of Robley Dunglison with Jefferson's biographer, Henry S.\n            Randall; and great numbers of letters by Jefferson's executor and by members of his\n            immediate family which are to be found in the University archives and such of our\n            collections as the Carr-Cary Papers, the Edgehill-Randolph Papers, and the Francis\n            Walker Gilmer Manuscripts. Typical of other materials omitted are an eighteen-page\n            manuscript pedigree of the Jefferson family, compiled by Paul Berghaus, and kept with\n            our Jefferson Papers for the convenience of researchers; memorial addresses following\n            Jefferson's death in 1826; and letters of condolence to his family. A revealing item of\n            Jeffersoniana, omitted here, but shortly-to be published by the library as a separate\n            volume, is the manuscript of the recollections of Isaac Jefferson, a household slave at\n            Monticello, as dictated in old age to the historian, Charles Campbell.","One conspicuous omission which we hope will not be attributed to ingratitude has been\n            that of the names of donors. From 1825 to 1949 we have received from Jefferson himself,\n            from every generation of his descendants, and from a host of admirers of Jefferson and\n            friends of the University, gifts of Jeffersoniana or funds for their acquisition. The\n            addition of donors' names to already elaborate calendar headings, particularly in the\n            group entries covering numerous separate gifts, might, we feel, confuse the student. In\n            our published annual reports we attempt at least to record from year to year the names\n            of the benefactors on whom we rely so heavily for the growth of the collections.","To the Research Council of the Richmond Area University Center we are indebted for the\n            grant-in-aid which has made possible this publication. The courtesy and patience of the\n            Administrator and of the members of the Council in connection with our unavoidable\n            delays in printing are particularly appreciated.","If this work had a dedication, it would be to Harry Clemons, who brought the Manuscript\n            Division into being, whose faith has a way of moving mountains, and to whom all of the\n            daily tasks of our staff are truly dedicated by our admiration and affection.","University of Virginia 1 October 1949 Francis L.

(correspondence)","Scrapbooks","This collection is open for research.","This collection is arranged into three series: Series 1. Correspondence, Series 2. Genealogy, Series 3. Notebooks, scrapbooks, photographs, and printed. The letters are arranged in chronological order under each family member. Correspondence between individuals is in separate folders because that was the original order of the collection.","This collection is centered on three prominent New England families, the Butler family of \"Round Oak\" Yonkers, New York (and according to family history related to Oliver Cromwell), the Terry family of Hartford, Connecticut (who was related to Governor William Bradford of Plymouth Rock and came over on the Mayflower in 1620), and the Collins family of Hartford, and New Haven, Connecticut, (who were settlers of Collinsville Illinois during westward expansion) in nineteenth century America.","The collection has many references to the American Civil War, and major events of the nineteenth century. The Collins family were strong abolitionists who helped free enslaved persons and celebrated when Illinois won against becoming an enslaved state.","The Butler family begins in this collection with Benjamin Franklin Butler (1795-1858) who was the Attorney General of the United States (1833-1838), appointed by President Andrew Jackson and was also a legal partner of Martin Van Buren. He founded New York University in 1831 and was regarded as one of the most successful cross-examiners of his day. He was married to Harriet Allen Butler and they had nine children.","His son was William Allen Butler (1825-1902) who was a lawyer and popular author of many books and poems. His most famous satirical book, \"Nothing to Wear\" was published in \"Harper's Weekly\" in 1857. He contributed travel and comic writing to \"The Literary World\" and wrote for the \"Democratic Review\". He married Mary Russell Marshall in 1850 and they had nine children including William Allen Butler, Jr. (1856-1921) and Howard Russell Butler (1856-1934), a well-known painter. William Allen Butler was on the cover of the \"New York Times Illustrated Weekly\" in 1897. He died at his residence, Round Oak, in Yonkers, New York.","William Allen Butler, Jr. was an attorney in New York, president of the Lawyer Club, and a graduate of Princeton University. He wrote law lectures and travelled to Europe for business. In 1840 he married Louise Terry Collins Butler (1856-1920) which joined the Terry, Collins, and Butler families together.  Louise Collins Butler wrote poetry, which is included in the collection.  They had five children, William Allen Butler, III, Lyman Collins Butler, Dr. Charles Terry Butler (1889-1980), Lydia Coit Dwight, and Louise Tracy Butler.","Louise Terry Collins Butler's parents were Charles Collins (1817-1891) and Mary Collins (1820-1900) who were married in 1840 and wrote to each other often when he was traveling for his father (Charles Collins) and grandfather's (Amos Collins) dry goods business (A.M. Collins and Sons and then Collins Brothers \u0026 Sons) in St. Louis, Missouri, Collinsville, Illinois, Charleston, South Carolina and Hartford, Connecticut. Before he was married, he wrote often to his parents asking for permission to buy land in Illinois like his uncles (who were successful in settling in Collinsville, Illinois), but they believed this was a plot to get rich quick and encouraged him to stay in business, which he did. Family members have recalled that \"Charles Collins was a courteous gentleman, of an exceedingly attractive personality. He was a man of active mind and fluent speech.\" He was described as speaking with animation and eloquence in defending his beliefs. He did not attend college, but he was an enthusiastic advocate of new and rational theological thought. He and his wife Mary Hall Terry Collins \"were very much interested in the genealogic record of the Collins family. Mary Hall Terry Collins, was the daughter of Eliphalet Terry (famous for promoting Hartford Insurance Company after the great fire in New York in 1835) and the granddaughter of Judge Eliphalet Terry who was a County Court Judge and direct descendant of Governor William Bradford of Plymouth Rock.","Louise Butler's siblings were Lydia Coit Ketcham (1844-1936), Reverend Charles Terry Collins (1845-1883), Clarence Lyman Collins (1848-1922), and Arthur Morris Collins (1851-1861).","Reverend Charles Terry Collins, brother of Louise Collins Butler was a graduate of Yale during the American Civil War, and a Reverend at Plymouth Church in Cleveland, Ohio.  In 1883, at the age of 38, the young minister on a visit home to see his father and mother, suddenly died in his father's arms as he got off the train. Family genealogy records describe the reverend after his death, \"The Cleveland journals regarded his death as \"not only a crushing private grief, but a public calamity.\" He was married to Mary Abby Wood. Their children were Charles Collins (b.1873), Clarence Collins (b. 1875), Mary Terry Collins (b. 1877), and Arthur Morris Collins (b.1880).","Reverend Charles Collins' father, and Charles Terry Collins grandfather, Amos Morris Collins, was the son of William Collins (1760-1847) and Esther Morris Collins. Amos Collins built one of the first successful dry goods business in New England. It was called A. M. Collins \u0026 Sons. It was so successful that it was able to help the banks and other community members after the American Civil War. Amos Morris Collins' brothers, Augustus Collins, Anson Collins, Michael Collins, Frederick Collins, and William Collins bought land in Illinois, where they moved their business, and named the town Collinsville. Amos Collins stayed at the store in New Haven. Reverend Dr. Bushnell, who was a close friend of Amos Collins and minister of his church, wrote about him, \"There is almost nothing here that has not somehow felt his power, nothing good which has not somehow profited by his beneficence.\"","The Butler, Collins, and Terry families descended from patriots of the American Revolutionary War and were members of the Daughters and Sons of the American Revolutionary War. The women in the collection, Harriet Allen Butler, Mary Russell Marshall Butler, Mary Lyman Collins, Lydia Coit Terry, Mary Hall Terry Collins, and Louise Terry Collins Butler played a prominent role in their households, were confidantes of their husbands, and maintained prominent social responsibilities. They were skilled in the orchestrations of sophisticated urban life and the hard work required for early American lifestyles.","These three families were raised with puritan upbringings which gave them a solid foundation of good principles but what is most notable is that they lived their lives with kindness and charity towards each other and their communities. This characterizes many of the letters in this collection.","This collection was donated by Leslie Middleton who is the granddaughter of Dr. Charles Terry Butler, and  great-granddaughter of Louise Terry Collins Butler (1856-1921) and William Allen Butler, Jr.","Sources:\nWood, Steven, \"The Writing of Steven Wood Collins:- Author of \"Puramore\", \"Lute of Pythagoras\", Steven Wood Collins Blog, Good Reads,,Published on May 26, 2015 \nhttps://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4524514.Steven_Wood_Collins/blog/tag/edward-collins","\"Full text of \"The Collins family; Genealogical record (in part) of the descendants of John Collins, Sr., from 1640 to 1760; a complete record of the descendants of William Collins and Esther Morris, from 1760 to 1897\", Internet Archive. retrieved 9/22/21 \nhttps://archive.org/stream/collinsfamilygen00coll/collinsfamilygen00coll_djvu.txt","Moore, Ensley. \"The Collins Family and Connections.\" Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society (1908-1984) 12, no. 1 (1919): 58–70. http://www.jstor.org/stable/40187075.","Butler, William Allen, \"Retrospect of Forty Years, 1825-1865\", New York, Charles Scribner and Sons, 1911.

Their correspondence, genealogy, photographs, and journals compile a historical collection, vast in size and informative of American life in the nineteenth century.","It contains over three hundred letters written when family members were attending Yale or Princeton during the American Civil War. There are over four thousand letters which show the close relationships between the families and their strong religious faith. Descendants from Puritans, the families' letters reveal a gentle kindness and firm guidance, particularly from parents to their children and a strong nostalgia for each other's company. Letters about the loss of loved ones show grief and pain but also an accepting attitude towards death and a reassuring belief that the spirit reclaimed their loved ones. A few of the letters highlight rare events such as divorce and alcoholism. There are some letters describing westward expansion (to Illinois). The letters mention some of the major events of the nineteenth century as well as an opportunity to look through history and learn more about each one of the family members and their community.","Many of the members in these families made a name for themselves in the field of law. Benjamin Franklin Butler was the Attorney General of the United States and the law partner of Martin Van Buren under President Andrew Jackson and some of his papers are in this collection. He was also a founder of New York University. His son, William Allen Butler was also a well-respected attorney, President of the American Bar Association, and a prolific author and poet. His novel \"Nothing to Wear\" was known as a popular, classic satire. There is a bibliographic list of his books, and the publications can be found in our holdings. There is also a copy of the \"New York Times Illustrated Weekly\" where he is featured on the cover in 1897.","William Allen Butler, Jr. was also an attorney in New England, President of the Lawyer Club, and a graduate of Princeton University. Included in the collection are his lectures and rowing, fishing, and Princeton scrapbooks as well as his property books, and office and travel journals. He married Louise Terry Collins in 1884 bringing the Butler and Collins families together. There are letters from \"Will and Louise\" while he courted her for several years, but she wanted to maintain her independence a few years longer. She was also a poet and many of her lines of poetry are in the collection. Also included are their handwritten wedding vows and affectionate letters throughout their marriage. William Allen Butler, Jr. traveled to Europe often and sailed on the RMS Mauretania (the sister ship to the Lusitania that was sunk by a German torpedo). Louise Butler also traveled and there are letters written on stationery from the Hamburg-Amerika line. There are also letters from William Allen Butler, Jr. to and about his brother Howard Russell Butler (1856-1934) who was an American painter and founder of the American Fine Arts Society. There are also photographs in William Allen Butler, Jr.'s scrapbook, \"The Victoria Luise\" of men constructing the Panama Canal.","Louise Terry Collins Butler's parents, Charles and Mary Hall Terry Collins also wrote to each other often during their courtship, married life, which included the time of the American Civil War. They also wrote letters about the \"Panic of 1857\"; the Midwest and the South, and politics. The Collins family were strong abolitionists who tried to help free enslaved persons and fought for Illinois to become a free state. The letters do not mention any details about enslaved persons but are more related to family and politics in general. The letters also describe travel to Collinsville, Illinois, Jacksonville, and St. Louis, Missouri, New Orleans, Louisiana, and Charleston South Carolina where Charles Collins Sr. attended to business for his family dry goods store in New England. Their son, Charles Terry Collins, Jr. wrote to them about the Civil War while he was a student at Yale. He attended Andover Theological Seminary and became a reverend at Plymouth Church in Cleveland, Ohio. He exchanged letters with his parents and siblings every week usually on Sundays. Many of his letters have hand illustrated, intricate, and personal sketches that describe the contents of his letters. He expresses his honest feelings and self-doubts about schoolwork and preaching which he eventually masters. Their other son, Clarence Collins attended College Hill School in Poughkeepsie, New York and succeeded his father in his dry goods store, \"Collins, Kellog \u0026 Kerbe\" and \"Collins, Atwater \u0026 Whitten\" (Collins Brothers \u0026 Sons). He married (Marie) Louise Clark who divorced him, leaving the care of their little girl, Edith Collins, with his mother Mary Hall Terry Collins and his sisters, Lillie Collins Ketcham, and Louise Terry Collins Butler. Edith Collins later married (and divorced) a Turkish diplomat Rechid Bey (Count Czaykowsi) and became Countess Czaykowski who lived in Paris and there are letters from her in the collection.","There are scrapbooks, and journals documenting the lives of these intertwining members of these families. There are also extensive genealogy notes and family trees in the collection tracing their ancestors. There is an Oxford family bible (1851 Oxford University Press, England) with handwritten family names. Printed books on the families 'genealogies and novels written by William Allen Butler are in the printed part of our collections. There is information about the family being members of the Colonial Dames Society of the American Revolutionary War and the Sons and Daughters of the American Revolutionary War. There are also well identified photographs of the various members of these noted American families of Butler, Collins, and Terry.

The Collins family were strong abolitionists who helped free enslaved persons and celebrated when Illinois won against becoming an enslaved state.","The Butler family begins in this collection with Benjamin Franklin Butler (1795-1858) who was the Attorney General of the United States (1833-1838), appointed by President Andrew Jackson and was also a legal partner of Martin Van Buren. He founded New York University in 1831 and was regarded as one of the most successful cross-examiners of his day. He was married to Harriet Allen Butler and they had nine children.","His son was William Allen Butler (1825-1902) who was a lawyer and popular author of many books and poems. His most famous satirical book, \"Nothing to Wear\" was published in \"Harper's Weekly\" in 1857. He contributed travel and comic writing to \"The Literary World\" and wrote for the \"Democratic Review\". He married Mary Russell Marshall in 1850 and they had nine children including William Allen Butler, Jr. (1856-1921) and Howard Russell Butler (1856-1934), a well-known painter. William Allen Butler was on the cover of the \"New York Times Illustrated Weekly\" in 1897. He died at his residence, Round Oak, in Yonkers, New York.","William Allen Butler, Jr. was an attorney in New York, president of the Lawyer Club, and a graduate of Princeton University. He wrote law lectures and travelled to Europe for business. In 1840 he married Louise Terry Collins Butler (1856-1920) which joined the Terry, Collins, and Butler families together.  Louise Collins Butler wrote poetry, which is included in the collection.  They had five children, William Allen Butler, III, Lyman Collins Butler, Dr. Charles Terry Butler (1889-1980), Lydia Coit Dwight, and Louise Tracy Butler.","Louise Terry Collins Butler's parents were Charles Collins (1817-1891) and Mary Collins (1820-1900) who were married in 1840 and wrote to each other often when he was traveling for his father (Charles Collins) and grandfather's (Amos Collins) dry goods business (A.M. Collins and Sons and then Collins Brothers \u0026 Sons) in St. Louis, Missouri, Collinsville, Illinois, Charleston, South Carolina and Hartford, Connecticut. Before he was married, he wrote often to his parents asking for permission to buy land in Illinois like his uncles (who were successful in settling in Collinsville, Illinois), but they believed this was a plot to get rich quick and encouraged him to stay in business, which he did. Family members have recalled that \"Charles Collins was a courteous gentleman, of an exceedingly attractive personality. He was a man of active mind and fluent speech.\" He was described as speaking with animation and eloquence in defending his beliefs. He did not attend college, but he was an enthusiastic advocate of new and rational theological thought. He and his wife Mary Hall Terry Collins \"were very much interested in the genealogic record of the Collins family. Mary Hall Terry Collins, was the daughter of Eliphalet Terry (famous for promoting Hartford Insurance Company after the great fire in New York in 1835) and the granddaughter of Judge Eliphalet Terry who was a County Court Judge and direct descendant of Governor William Bradford of Plymouth Rock.","Louise Butler's siblings were Lydia Coit Ketcham (1844-1936), Reverend Charles Terry Collins (1845-1883), Clarence Lyman Collins (1848-1922), and Arthur Morris Collins (1851-1861).","Reverend Charles Terry Collins, brother of Louise Collins Butler was a graduate of Yale during the American Civil War, and a Reverend at Plymouth Church in Cleveland, Ohio.  In 1883, at the age of 38, the young minister on a visit home to see his father and mother, suddenly died in his father's arms as he got off the train. Family genealogy records describe the reverend after his death, \"The Cleveland journals regarded his death as \"not only a crushing private grief, but a public calamity.\" He was married to Mary Abby Wood. Their children were Charles Collins (b.1873), Clarence Collins (b. 1875), Mary Terry Collins (b. 1877), and Arthur Morris Collins (b.1880).","Reverend Charles Collins' father, and Charles Terry Collins grandfather, Amos Morris Collins, was the son of William Collins (1760-1847) and Esther Morris Collins. Amos Collins built one of the first successful dry goods business in New England. It was called A. M. Collins \u0026 Sons. It was so successful that it was able to help the banks and other community members after the American Civil War. Amos Morris Collins' brothers, Augustus Collins, Anson Collins, Michael Collins, Frederick Collins, and William Collins bought land in Illinois, where they moved their business, and named the town Collinsville. Amos Collins stayed at the store in New Haven. Reverend Dr. Bushnell, who was a close friend of Amos Collins and minister of his church, wrote about him, \"There is almost nothing here that has not somehow felt his power, nothing good which has not somehow profited by his beneficence.\"","The Butler, Collins, and Terry families descended from patriots of the American Revolutionary War and were members of the Daughters and Sons of the American Revolutionary War. The women in the collection, Harriet Allen Butler, Mary Russell Marshall Butler, Mary Lyman Collins, Lydia Coit Terry, Mary Hall Terry Collins, and Louise Terry Collins Butler played a prominent role in their households, were confidantes of their husbands, and maintained prominent social responsibilities. They were skilled in the orchestrations of sophisticated urban life and the hard work required for early American lifestyles.","These three families were raised with puritan upbringings which gave them a solid foundation of good principles but what is most notable is that they lived their lives with kindness and charity towards each other and their communities. This characterizes many of the letters in this collection.","This collection was donated by Leslie Middleton who is the granddaughter of Dr. Charles Terry Butler, and  great-granddaughter of Louise Terry Collins Butler (1856-1921) and William Allen Butler, Jr.","Sources:\nWood, Steven, \"The Writing of Steven Wood Collins:- Author of \"Puramore\", \"Lute of Pythagoras\", Steven Wood Collins Blog, Good Reads,,Published on May 26, 2015 \nhttps://www.goodreads.com/author/show/4524514.Steven_Wood_Collins/blog/tag/edward-collins","\"Full text of \"The Collins family; Genealogical record (in part) of the descendants of John Collins, Sr., from 1640 to 1760; a complete record of the descendants of William Collins and Esther Morris, from 1760 to 1897\", Internet Archive. retrieved 9/22/21 \nhttps://archive.org/stream/collinsfamilygen00coll/collinsfamilygen00coll_djvu.txt","Moore, Ensley. \"The Collins Family and Connections.\" Journal of the Illinois State Historical Society (1908-1984) 12, no. 1 (1919): 58–70. http://www.jstor.org/stable/40187075.","Butler, William Allen, \"Retrospect of Forty Years, 1825-1865\", New York, Charles Scribner and Sons, 1911.
