Digitized documents and transcripts are available online .","The collection is arranged in chronological order , with undated materials are at the end.","James Francis \"Frank\" Heizer was born in 1841 in Churchville, Augusta County, Va. His parents were James and Sarah J. Heizer and he had at least three siblings. Prior to the Civil War, he lived on his family's farm and worked as laborer. On April 19, 1861, Frank enlisted as a private in Company I, 14th Regiment, Virginia Cavalry and McClanahan's Battery. Alongside details of Frank's military service, this collection details the relationship between Frank and his longtime friend and love interest, Pheobe Ann McCormick (1845-1906). Pheobe Ann(e) McCormick (also known as Annie) was born in Augusta County, Va., in 1845. ","The pair's first engagement took place on April 18, 1864, when Frank revealed his feelings to Pheobe in a letter. A year later, the pair broke their engagement on August 10, 1865, based on Frank's \"wishes to be released\" so that he could freely pursue a career as a student and later, a traveling artist. The pair kept in touch through the years and eventually reconciled on January 21, 1867, re-establishing their engagement. ","In a letter dated January 22, 1867, Pheobe accepted Frank's second proposal by stating: \"I feel that I can't trust myself to write you a long letter now but will give you the reply that Gen'l Jackson sent to Santa Anna. 'If he wants me, let him come and take me.'\" The pair married on February 21, 1867. ","By 1870, Frank and Pheobe were living in Augusta County and they had the first of their children. Records suggest they had at least eight children:  William A. (1870-1932); Ida B. (later Ott) (abt. 1874-?); Mary R. (later McComb) (1874-1949?); Eveline Frances (or Frances E. or F. Evelyn) (1878-1960); Willie (abt. 1877-?); James W. (married Lillian Holt) (1880-1945); Robert E. (1882-?); Francis P. (1887-?). ","In 1880, the family was still in Augusta County and Frank's occupation on the census was listed as \"farmer.\" By 1900, they had relocated to Buena Vista and Frank was working as a carpenter. Pheobe died in 1906, at the age of 61. James lived another 24 years and his daughter Frances continued to live with him. By 1920, Frank was working as a commissioner of revenue at the court house in Buena Vista. He died in 1930, at the age of 88. Both he and Phoebe are buried in Buena Vista, along with two of their children. ","Sources: Find a Grave \nAncestry Library Edition\n","The processing, arrangement, and description of the James Francis Heizer \u0026 Phoebe Anne McCormick Heizer Collection was completed in June 2017.","This collection consists of 100+ letters written between the years of 1863–1868, and is accompanied by a book entitled,  The Heizer Family: American Pioneers  by James Harion Heizer c.1861-1868. The majority of the letters are authored by James Francis (Frank) Heizer (1841-1930), a private in the Confederate army, whose letters are mostly addressed to his love interest and eventual fiance, Pheobe Ann McCormick (1845-1906). This collection also includes a few of Pheobe's letters to Frank, though many of her letters were burned after being answered, as per a request by Pheobe in an attempt to conceal their relationship status until after the war. The letters include a variety of information about the war and Heizer's movements throughout the state, along with his wishes for leave and travel plans. Along with these wartime details, the letters include a good deal of conversation involving the blossoming friendship between Frank and Pheobe, and eventually their romantic relationship. This period includes letters in which their engagement is made and then broken, and is followed by letters that include much sarcasm and veiled insults towards one another. After about a year, the pair had reconnected and had re-established their engagement, eventually marrying and having 9 children together.","This folder includes letters that discuss information about Heizer's regiment movements, friend/family news, and conversations about Frank and Pheobe's personal correspondence. In a letter dated April 18, 1864, Frank confesses his romantic feelings to Pheobe and asks her to accept his marriage proposal. Also included in this folder is Heizer's written record of service during \"The war between the states - 1861-1865\".","This folder includes letters that discuss information about Heizer's regiment movements, friend/family news, questions about personal correspondence between Frank and Pheobe, and Frank's desired educational pursuits. In a letter dated Aug. 10, 1865, Frank and Pheobe broke off their engagement on the basis of Frank's wishes to be released from the relationship.","This folder contains letters that discuss Frank and Pheobe's personal correspondence, each person's daily activities, family and acquaintance news. Additionally included, is news of Frank's leaving school at Roanoke College to pursue work as a traveling artist.","This folder includes a letter from Pheobe's sister, Becca and letters that discuss Frank and Pheobe's personal correspondence, family and friend sickness updates and each individual's travels. In a letter dated January 21, 1867, Frank recants his earlier wishes to be released from the pair's engagement and asks Pheobe again to marry him.

Major Corly [Corby] the quarter Master for the north west being stationed off your line at Hardy [V_] the business in that Department from some cause is badly arranged on the Monterey line, for instance I have sent out thousands of bags with grain \u0026 c \u0026 not one has ever been returned for supplies. I have again been compelled to commence the impressments of wagons \u0026 pledge the farmers that their teams shall only be kept one trip. My object in writing to you direct, is to ask the favor of you to direct the return of all the bags \u0026 also all the wagons \u0026 teams that can be spared. I will return them immediately with corn \u0026 oats for the horses, which you so much need. Col. J. B. Baldwin also wishes grain \u0026 c. sent to the Petersburg Line. With your aid I trust I will be able to keep both lines well supplied, but it is a matter of utmost importance that there should be a prompt return of any spare wagon, empty bags \u0026 c \u0026 c. Teams are of little use when feed cannot be supplied. With great consideration and respect I am,  \nYour Obt. Servt., M. G. Harman. Major Comdg \u0026 c.","I have almost exhausted this country in the way of horses \u0026 wagons \u0026 purchased nearly all that was for sale \u0026 impressing the farmer's teams for one trip only. You will do me the favor to see that my promises are complied with \u0026 not kept but one trip as this will enable me to make all our people do their part of the transportation. I am very sorry General to trouble your with these matters, but I am unable to manage the transportation without your assistance.

Would it not be well to take only 10 of these teams for the present until a good stock of grain \u0026 hay can be gotten out, or whenever you can spare the train let the whole train come in for a load of grain \u0026 hay.","You may depend upon it General that the Quarter Masters Department in the North West never can be managed with system \u0026 regularity until first rate business \u0026 experienced men are commissioned \u0026 placed at the important points on the line, \u0026 when commissioning they give security. Money can be drawn by them \u0026 many supplies purchased. Whereas when men are only occupying the place of assistants they are powerless \u0026 they probably never see their principal once in two months. Unless this Department is thoroughly organized on the different lines the Army must suffer greatly in the coming winter. You can judge of it by what your division has already suffered. I know you have enough to do without attending to these details.","I expect to join my regiment in 8 or 10 days \u0026 hope to get the Department in working order in your line before I left. I hope you will write a letter to the Secretary of War on the subject. I have placed Capt.
