On June 30, 1863, Wilhelm writes from Galveston, conveying war news from Vicksburg and Pennsylvania. On November 14, 1863, Nancy Steubeing writes of having heard that Wilhelm's regiment had been sent to Louisiana and that Brownsville, Texas had been taken by Union forces and conveys hope that Wilhelm will be sent to Brownsville and have an opportunity to stop at home. The following day, Wilhelm again writes from Galveston that his regiment will soon depart for Harrisburg \"to avoid the Yankeys landing on our coast\" and that his and other regiments will be formed into a cavalry brigade. He adds that he is sending Nancy two vials of laudenum and gives her instructions for buying whiskey. On December 8, 1863, Wilhelm writes from a camp 10 miles south of Brazoria, Texas, that the regiment had arrived there hungry after a forced march, while he worked with the quartermaster to haul stores to camp from Barnard Station. He again writes from near Brazoria on December 20, briefly describing camp: \"there is ten Devitions of the Army here and we are all in a pile.\" On February 14, 1864, Nancy writes from Hopkinsville, informing Wilhelm of the illnesses of herself and several family members, concluding, \"i believe they have got the flux.\" She then expresses concern that her father will be conscripted: \"i recon you no they are making evry efforte to get evry man in the army i donte no how soon Pa will hav to go and if he has to go what will become of me and the children, for you no he has taken care of us evry since you have bin in the servise ... i think evry man that carse any thing for his people will go home when they drag out the olde men who are trying to take care of those who are neearest and dearest.\"","Also included is an 1859 letter from N.

Va.)","Local/Regional History and Appalachian South","The collection is open for research.","The papers are arranged by family member and then by type of material.","The Dicksons were pioneer settlers of Greenbrier County, Virginia (now West Virginia). Joseph Dickson (1749-1822) settled in what is now Greenbrier County, West Virginia, from Ireland by way of Pennsylvania in the 1770s. He received land grants originally from the King's land office in 1769, and later from the Commonwealth of Virginia in 1785, 1789, and 1795 for property on Howard's Creek. His son, Robert Dickson (1795-1869?), inherited the land and built Locust Hill in 1833, now called Mountain Home. Robert Renick Dickson (1827-1888) and Henry Frazier Dickson (1841-1909), Robert Dickson's sons, inherited the land and in turn left it to their heirs. The Dicksons turned Mountain Home near White Sulphur Springs into a resort in the 1800s and early 1900s. The property and home were owned by the family until they were sold in 1968.","The guide to the Dickson Family 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 Dickson Family Papers was completed prior to 2001.","The papers consist largely of land, property, and goods transaction receipts and documents of each of the four generations of the Dickson Family, who originally settled in what is now Greenbrier County, Virginia (now West Virginia) in the 1770s. Certificates, oaths, correspondence, deeds, and a diary are included in Joseph Dickson's papers, along with several sale documents for enslaved people from the late 1700s and early 1800s. Much of the land and goods and many of the enslaved people were exchanged with neighbors and others in the area. Most of Joseph Dickson's documents are individually described in this inventory. The papers of John Dickson (1737-1809, brother of Joseph Dickson), Robert Dickson, Robert Renick Dickson and Henry Frazier Dickson, and Geraldine Dickson Burrow (1879-1943, daughter of Henry Frazier Dickson), are grouped by type of material (for example, financial accounts, correspondence, and land deeds). Within Robert Dickson's correspondence are a few references to the American Civil War, including a letter from a Confederate tax collector demanding payment of his 1863 Confederate taxes. Other interesting documents include the transcript (1916) of the trial of Sallie Dickson (wife of Robert Renick Dickson) who was sued by Henry Frazier Dickson, for payment of rent due to him. The papers also include genealogy charts of the family.","Certificate asserting that Joseph Dickson was received in his parish and \"has behaved himself in a Verry prudent and exemplary manner,\" signed by M.
