In 1842, Jacob and Amy purchased the property known as Sully Plantation in Chantilly, Virginia, which was built by Richard Bland Lee between 1787-1794, and soon after invited Alexander to leave New York and help with the running of the property in Virginia. After moving to Sully, Alexander married Pheobe (also spelled \"Phebe\") Sweet (1824-1898) in 1845 and finished construction of their new home, known as \"Little Sully,\" in 1851. The couple would go on to have four children. Eldest daughter Margaret Amy (also known as Maggie) was born in 1848 and married Thomas W. Lee in 1873, Stephen Sweet was born in 1857 and married Henrietta Lucas in 1891, Henry Clement was born in 1859, and youngest George Alexander was born in 1867.","Despite belonging to the Quaker faith (also known as The Religious Society of Friends), whose members actively fought for abolition, records indicate that the Haight family used enslaved labor during their time at Sully.

In 1869, the family sold Sully to Stephen Shear, but most members of Alexander and Phoebe's branch of the Haight family remained in and around Fairfax County.","In 1886, Jacob and Amy's son Henry Clement married Emma Jane Young, daughter of Union Soldier John M. Young (1831-1865), and the couple would go on to have four children of their own: Helen Hill (1887-1977), Elizabeth Barlow [later Hamill] (1889-1974), Mary [later Millan] (1890–1964), and Alexander Levi (1891-1981).","Processed by Special Collections Research Center staff.

The collection contains 3 series.","Series 1: Correspondence (1838-1920) includes sent and received personal and professional correspondence, including letters, cards, and postcards. The bulk of the correspondence represents personal communications between members of the Haight family, both with each other and with family friends, including a number of letters sent by Helen Hill Haight during her time volunteering with the American Red Cross during World War I. Additional correspondence includes communications concerning business matters, such as correspondence to and from legal representatives, and a mix of original and reproduction copy letters sent by Union soldier John M. Young during the Civil War. This series is arranged alphabetically by non-Haight correspondent last name. In cases where a member of the Haight family sent a letter to another Haight, and both are already represented elsewhere in the series, letters are arranged alphabetically by the name of the recipient.","Series 2: Legal and financial documents (circa 1764-1948) includes personal and professional legal and financial records, most connected to members of the Haight family, including account ledgers, bank, registered letter, and tax receipts, formal and informal contracts and agreements, and other legal documents created by organizations within Fairfax County. Additional documents include Union Army passes issued to Alexander Haight during the Civil War, Alexander Levi Haight's Fairfax County draft classification card issued during World War I, a New York court summons for Stephen Sweet Haight, a California gold dig payment issued to George Sweet (brother of Phoebe Haight), currency notes, including Confederate paper money, and military orders issued during the Civil War.

Ownership of the property remained in the Haight family, although transferring formally to Alexander's sister Maria and her husband James Barlow in 1852, and remained so throughout the Civil War, during which both Union and Confederate soldiers crossed the property. In 1869, the family sold Sully to Stephen Shear, but most members of Alexander and Phoebe's branch of the Haight family remained in and around Fairfax County.","In 1886, Jacob and Amy's son Henry Clement married Emma Jane Young, daughter of Union Soldier John M. Young (1831-1865), and the couple would go on to have four children of their own: Helen Hill (1887-1977), Elizabeth Barlow [later Hamill] (1889-1974), Mary [later Millan] (1890–1964), and Alexander Levi (1891-1981)."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eAlexander Haight family collection, C0159, Special Collections Research Center, George Mason University Libraries\u003c/p\u003e  "],"prefercite_tesim":["Alexander Haight family collection, C0159, Special Collections Research Center, George Mason University Libraries"],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eProcessed by Special Collections Research Center staff.

He was a farmer in Monongalia County, West Virginia, before enlisting in the Confederate army in May 1861. Stewart organized volunteer companies in western Virginia until that fall, when he was assigned to the 48th Virginia Infantry regiment in October 1861. Stewart was captured in Highland County, Virginia, on 7 August 1862 while raising a battalion of partisan rangers. He was kept as a prisoner of war in Beverly, West Virginia; Wheeling, West Virginia; and Camp Chase, Ohio; before being exchanged in Vicksburg, Mississippi, on 11 September 1862. Stewart commanded a detachment during a battle at Beverly, West Virginia, in early July 1863 and also served on the staff of Brigadier General W.L. Jackson. From 1863 to 1864, Stewart was a member of the Virginia Legislature. He took the oath of allegiance in May 1865 and returned to his farm in Monongalia County, where he farmed until 1897. Stewart married Arah Evans in the early twentieth century. He died in Morgantown, West Virginia, on 21 March 1915.","David Boston Stewart (1826-1915), a farmer from Monongalia County, West Virginia, who served with the 48th Virginia Infantry and the 20th Virginia Cavalry during the Civil War and was a member of the Virginia Legislature from 1863 to 1864. Collection primarily consists of letters written to D. B. Stewart between 1862 and 1864 and between 1894 and 1906 that concern Stewart's time as a Confederate prisoner of war during the Civil War and his personal life in the 1890s and early 1900s.","Letters from his niece and brothers during the war comment on Stewart's case as a prisoner; affairs at home and on the farm in West Virginia; and politics and hope for the Confederacy. Letters from the 1890s are primarily written to Stewart from family members and Arah Evans, with whom Stewart was involved and eventually married. Topics include family news and activities and Stewart and Evans' relationship.","Letters from 1900 to 1908 largely relate to various efforts to document Civil War history, including the compilation of Virginia military records, Stewart's personal service, and the evacuation of Richmond in 1865. Scattered financial and legal materials include receipts, promissory notes, and a copy of the 1782 will of Major General Charles Lee. Also includes two letters from Sherard Clemens.","Permission to publish or reproduce is required from the copyright holder.
