He enlisted in the Confederate Army on March 20, 1862 and served as a Sergeant in Company I, 34th Virginia Infantry. He died November 27, 1917 and was buried in Bedford County. Little biographical information could be found on Hicks. Within the collection's materials, evidence suggests he and his wife, Fanny A. Hicks, had at least four children: Edward J., John R., James M. and Lula. It appears that Fanny Hicks survived her husband, but was in poor health for a long time. ","Various bonds and receipts within the collection indicate that Hicks was engaged in the tobacco business. He cultivated tobacco on large tracts of his land and sold it on a fairly large scale to individuals and cooperatives. He also owned livestock. Hicks served as a Justice of the Peace with the Campbell County Court, where he appraised property, inspected cattle and bore witness on cases, among other things. He also operated a business in Bedford County during the latter part of his life. ","James Morris Hicks, son of R. W. Hicks, studied mechanical engineering at Virginia Agricultural and Mechanical College and Polytechnic Institute (VPI; now Virginia Tech), graduating in 1901. While at VPI, he held various positions of leadership, serving as class secretary, treasurer, vice-president and president; and belonged to the Maury Literary Society and the Engineering Club. After graduating, Hicks worked as a colliery superintendent at the Hudson Coal Company in Scranton, Pennsylvania, and also managed his father's tobacco farm. ","Of R. W. Hicks' other children, only the briefest of information could be found: Lula Hicks married J. Edward Wilkinson of Evington, Virginia. John R. Hicks lived in various places, including Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; Saint Louis, Missouri; and Clinton, Louisiana. John seems to have been a religious man, working for a school. The papers suggest that Edward J. Hicks lived in Evington and helped his father with his tobacco business. ","Stephen Hicks lived in Bedford County, where he owned a large estate. The relationship of Stephen and J. H. Hicks to R. W. Hicks and his family is unclear.

Hicks and his family. The collection has been divided among the following broad categories: Personal correspondence, Farm and household transactions, Tax records, Memorandum books, Legal records, Other family members, Printed material and Envelopes. ","Personal family correspondence contains letters between John W. Sledd, R. W. Hicks' nephew, J. R. Hicks, J. M. Hicks, Edward Hicks, M. Irvine, S. J. Adams, L. J. Quinn, Fanie Hicks, Lula Wilkinson, R. W. Hicks, and Bessie Rawlings (Lula's tutor) among others. ","Transactions of the Hicks farm and household are recorded in a set of folders containing various documents. Monetary transactions are also tracked through a large number of receipts for personal and household goods, such as groceries and hardware. Nearly all of the receipts are in the name of R. W. Hicks, though in later years, some bear the names of his children. The bills and receipts are complemented by a set of yearly accounts, summarizing the family's monetary transactions with individual businesses, as well as a group of shopping lists for personal goods. Also included are documents and receipts relating to bonds made primarily for business purposes. ","Also relating to the Hicks family home and farm are tax records containing receipts for property taxes paid by the family in Campbell and Bedford counties. ","The legal records folder contains materials relating to Hicks' service as Campbell County justice of the peace. The papers include summons issued by Hicks as well as summons for him to appear as a witness in other cases. There are also papers relating to his inspection of cattle for local farmers. ","The collection also contains a small number of materials relating to other family members, including official letters and payment receipts in the name of John Morris Hicks who worked with the Hudson Coal Company. Lula and Edward Wilkinson's payment receipts and related correspondence are part of this folder. Tax records on the property of Stephen Hicks of Bedford County are available, and there is evidence of the subsequent sale of that land for non-payment of taxes. ","The printed material folder contains various publications, most relating to Hicks family interests and affiliations. Included is the 10th Annual Report of the Woman's Missionary Society of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South (1888) as well as printed advertisements for various medicines, beauty products, gardening material and insurance.

After serving as an apprentice manufacturer of sash doors and blinds, Hawkes attended school in Vermont. He graduated from Amherst Colege in 1859, and became principal of Conway Academy (Conway, Massachusetts). Hawkes left Conway in late 1861, returning to Lynnfield, where he resumed his studies and also took private lessons in military tactics. During the American Civil War, he enlisted in Company D, 52nd Massachusetts Infantry for a nine-month term of service on September 8, 1862. Eventually attaining the rank of sergeant, Hawkes participated in the occupation of Baton Rouge and the siege of Port Hudson. On the night of July 23, 1863, his regiment's term of service having expired, Hawkes was among those who boarded the steamer  Henry Chouteau , bound for Cairo, Illinois, from which the 52nd would depart for Massachusetts. Hawkes, ill with dysentery, was expected after his recovery to accept an officer's commission in United States Colored Troops regiment. During the first night on the river, however, Hawkes disappeared and was assumed to have drowned.","The guide to the Joshua Gilman Hawkes Papers by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 ( https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ ).","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Joshua Gilman Hawkes Papers commenced and was completed in January, 2013.","This collection contains letters of Joshua Gilman Hawkes, a sergeant in Company D, 52nd Massachusetts Infantry during the American Civil War. The letters commence with Hawkes writing from Camp Miller (Greenfield, Massachusetts). In a letter to his sister, Hawkes describes camp life, discusses personal acquaintances, and briefly mentions the Emancipation Proclamation. In successive letters, Hawkes reports movements of and conditions aboard the steamer  Illinois  and describes conditions in the Mississippi Delta and at New Orleans. In addition to relaying descriptions of skirmishes, troop movements, and incidents of camp life, Hawkes describes in detail his 1863 New Year's dinner and frequently describes in detail food and drink served in camp and found through foraging. He also relates the story of a runaway enslaved person and provides several lengthy descriptions of and anecdotes about contrabands and African-American soldiers. Hawkes expresses opinions on the conduct of the war and is critical in his assessment of the high command and the Lincoln administration, as well as the newspapers of the day. Elsewhere, he writes of lice and fleas, the lack of hygiene among New York regiments, and the southern terrain and climate.","Also within the collection are a few antebellum items, including \"A Description of a Virginia Christmas,\" a poem written by Mary Hawkes in 1852; an anonymous Valentine poem; character references written on Hawkes' behalf;  and receipts for life insurance premiums. The collection also contains correspondence received by relatives following Hawkes' death. Included is a letter from J. W. Larkin intended for Hawkes and offering him a lieutenant's commission in a United States Colored Troops regiment. Among the remaining letters are several from friends and former schoolmates, containing memorial tributes to Hawkes. An 1870 letter from Hawkes' Amherst classmate Henry W. Smith is accompanied by a biographical sketch of Hawkes.","Many of the letters are marked \"copy,\" and these copies appear to have been made by a family member, probably sister Mary Hawkes, and probably shortly following Hawkes' death. Some of the original letters of condolence in the collection are accompanied by copies in this same hand. A few of the letters are accompanied by typed transcripts.","The copyright status of this collection is unknown. Copyright restrictions may apply.
