His terms as VMI's Business Executive and Historiographer encompassed thirty years, but before, during and subsequent to that period, he served in many other official and unofficial capacities. He was a noted authority on local and regional history, and on the life and times of Stonewall Jackson. In addition to his official duties at VMI, he was responsible for the initial organization and preservation of the Institute's rich historical holdings, including it's unique collection of alumni biographical and genealogical materials.","General William Harvie Richardson (1795-1876) had a long and close association with VMI.

William Couper served as Construction Quartermaster.","The T. S. White farm was purchased by VMI in 1920 and used for cavalry and other military training exercises.","Researchers should note that, because William Couper served in\nseveral different positions at VMI, many of his professional papers are located in various record groups in the VMI Archives. These include records of the Business Office, Alumni Association, and various administrative subject files (e.g., Southern Conference).","The Virginia Historical Society (Richmond, Virginia) holds additional William Couper and Couper family papers.","The William Couper papers document a portion of the life and career of Couper, a man notable for his research and publications about the history of VMI, Lexington, Rockbridge County, Shenandoah Valley, Virginia history and genealogy, Stonewall Jackson, and Claudius Crozet.","A significant portion of the papers consist of publication\nmanuscripts, notes, and other material related to Couper's major historical research projects (many of which were published).
