Also\n         during this time there was much political discussion and talk\n         of insurrections generally (December 1856) and of\n         insubordination among the servants at \n         Music Hall(August 1857). \n         Louisa Minor's feelings toward the\n         uprisings was probably indicative of the way the Southerners\n         felt during this time. She often referred to the closeness of\n         the family and the servants, and seemed to have no\n         understanding of any rebelliousness. This lack of\n         understanding seems evident in December 1865 when she wrote\n         that the \"freedmen seem to be having all the fun and goodies.\"\n         She wrote of their changing status, their unwillingness to\n         attend to the family's wants, and their still receiving daily\n         allowances--all with the belief that they had been treated\n         fairly (December 1865).","During the Civil War, \n         Louisa Minorwrote about occurrences in\n         more detail, although much of the news was indirect, through\n         hearsay or letters. In late 1860, \n         Louisa Minorwrote about the realization\n         of war, and the companies of infantry \"drawn out in all `the\n         pomp and circumstance of war'.\" Throughout the war she often\n         expressed the typical feelings of Southerners toward the\n         Northerners, the victories and losses of the \n         Confederate Army, heroes such as \n         \"Stonewall\" Jackson, destruction of land\n         and transportation modes, and the changing status of blacks.\n         From January 1861 through April 1865, \n         Louisa Minorreported on the progress of\n         the war. She mentions that when \n         Stonewall Jackson's troops marched\n         through in June 1862, she spent the whole day feeding\n         soldiers, gave up her bed at night, and was paid a visit in\n         the parlor by General \n         Richard Ewell, \"a funny old\n         fellow...[with] the simplicity and heart of a child...\". She\n         also reports on a Christmas dinner given to over 1200 soldiers\n         at the \n         Delevan Hospital, \n         Charlottesville, and Custer's\n         diversionary raid on Rio Hill on February 29, 1864. As time\n         progressed, the effects of the war became personally evident\n         to \n         Louisa Minoras more and more of her\n         family and friends and the surrounding area were affected.\n         During late 1864,and early 1865, \n         Charlottesvillewas more involved in the\n         war, with Yankee raids and destruction of property. \n         Louisa Minorgives a fairly full account\n         of Federal troops passing through \n         Albemarle Countyin March 1865, and\n         describes the hardships of the first year of\n         Reconstruction.","Also included is a bequest, April 23, 1871, of \n         Mary Walker (Lewis) Andersonleaving her\n         table furniture, two feather beds and a trundle bed with bed\n         clothes, \"wearing clothes,\" tin ware, and all personal\n         property and money due her to \n         Louisa Minor.","See the \n            \n            University of Virginia Library’s use policy.","University of Virginia.

She\n         also reports on a Christmas dinner given to over 1200 soldiers\n         at the \n         Delevan Hospital, \n         Charlottesville, and Custer's\n         diversionary raid on Rio Hill on February 29, 1864. As time\n         progressed, the effects of the war became personally evident\n         to \n         Louisa Minoras more and more of her\n         family and friends and the surrounding area were affected.\n         During late 1864,and early 1865, \n         Charlottesvillewas more involved in the\n         war, with Yankee raids and destruction of property. \n         Louisa Minorgives a fairly full account\n         of Federal troops passing through \n         Albemarle Countyin March 1865, and\n         describes the hardships of the first year of\n         Reconstruction.","Also included is a bequest, April 23, 1871, of \n         Mary Walker (Lewis) Andersonleaving her\n         table furniture, two feather beds and a trundle bed with bed\n         clothes, \"wearing clothes,\" tin ware, and all personal\n         property and money due her to \n         Louisa Minor.","See the \n            \n            University of Virginia Library’s use policy.","University of Virginia.

Minor, born April 13, 1833,\n         was the youngest child of \n         Samuel Overton Minor( -August 30, 1838)\n         and \n         Lydia Laurie (Lewis) Minor(February 15,\n         1795-August 8, 1833). After her parents' deaths, \n         Louisa Minorwas raised by her mother's\n         sister, \n         Mary Walker (Lewis) Leitch Anderson(March\n         25, 1793-June 21, 1872) of \"Pant-Ops,\" \n         Albemarle County. Throughout the diary, \n         Mary Walker Andersonand \n         David Andersonare referred to as \"Ma\" and\n         \"Daddy.\"","Louisa Minor's diary, ca. 350 pages, kept\n         from September 1, 1855 to December 29, 1866, reveals her\n         personal feelings as well as both routine and extraordinary\n         events in the lives of herself and her family and friends. She\n         often writes about her weekly activities, especially church\n         attendance and social interactions with relatives and friends.\n         References to her family and friends often concern marriages,\n         births, illnesses, deaths, visits, and \n         Louisa Minor's impressions about\n         individuals and the events in their lives. She also writes her\n         own poetry, quotes verses of others, and records her thoughts\n         on books she read and church sermons she heard.","There are frequent references to members of the \n         Minor family, especially \n         Louisa Minor's brothers and sisters and\n         their families. While \n         Louisa Minorwas still a small child, her\n         father and several offspring migrated to \n         Missouri, while others, including \n         Louisa Minor, remained in \n         Virginia. During the period of the diary,\n         the following siblings were living: \n         Mary Overton Minor(December 4, 1812-), \n         Garritt Minor(November 15, 1815-), \n         William Woolfolk Minor(March 10, 1817-May\n         3, 1885), \n         James Hunter Minor(November 15,\n         1818-April 12, 1862), \n         Samuel Overton Minor(May 12, 1820-March\n         24, 1880), \n         Nicholas Peter Minor(August 25, 1822-), \n         Bettie Lewis Minor(September 12, 1825-),\n         and \n         Sallie Watson Minor(January 3, 1829-March\n         1873). There are also references to more distant relatives as\n         well as friends of the \n         Anderson family, \n         Carr family, \n         Davis family, \n         Gilmer family, \n         Leitch family, \n         Lewis family, \n         Macmurdo family, \n         Meriwether family, \n         Minor family, \n         Randolph familyand \n         Terrell family.","Louisa Minorwas quite religious, often\n         attending church several times a week, and visiting churches\n         of different denominations, including \n         Grace Church, the \" \n         Brick Church, \" \n         the University \"Chapel\"(held at this time\n         in a room in the wing of the \n         Rotunda), \n         St. Paul's Church, \n         the \"Monumental\" Church, and an \n         \"African\" Churchin \n         Richmond. She heard some of the prominent\n         clergymen of the time such as \n         Ebenezer Boyden, \n         John Albert Broadus, \n         Dabney Carr Davis, \n         Richard Terrell Davis, \n         Richard Kidder Meade, \n         Bishop William Meade, Liberian Bishop \n         John S. Payne, and \n         Joseph Pere Bell Wilmer.","There are references to and some descriptions of places\n         visited and events attended, including the \n         Virginia State Fairin \n         Richmondin 1857 and again in 1860. \n         Louisa Minoroften visited the nearby\n         estates of family and friends-- \n         Castalia, \n         Cloverfields, \n         Kinloch, \n         Locust Hill, \n         Music Hall, \n         Orange Dale--relating occurrences at\n         them. There are mentions of the funeral of the artist \n         John Toole(March 1860), the annual\n         celebrations of the \n         Jefferson Societyand the \n         Washington [Literary] Societyat the \n         University of Virginiaas well as other\n         events at the University. Information on \n         Charlottesvilleis found throughout the\n         diary.","Prior to the beginning of the Civil War references to\n         blacks included news of freed servants sailing from \n         Norfolkto \n         Africa(December 1856), and later accounts\n         of many of their deaths while en route (April 1857). Also\n         during this time there was much political discussion and talk\n         of insurrections generally (December 1856) and of\n         insubordination among the servants at \n         Music Hall(August 1857). \n         Louisa Minor's feelings toward the\n         uprisings was probably indicative of the way the Southerners\n         felt during this time. She often referred to the closeness of\n         the family and the servants, and seemed to have no\n         understanding of any rebelliousness. This lack of\n         understanding seems evident in December 1865 when she wrote\n         that the \"freedmen seem to be having all the fun and goodies.\"\n         She wrote of their changing status, their unwillingness to\n         attend to the family's wants, and their still receiving daily\n         allowances--all with the belief that they had been treated\n         fairly (December 1865).","During the Civil War, \n         Louisa Minorwrote about occurrences in\n         more detail, although much of the news was indirect, through\n         hearsay or letters. In late 1860, \n         Louisa Minorwrote about the realization\n         of war, and the companies of infantry \"drawn out in all `the\n         pomp and circumstance of war'.\" Throughout the war she often\n         expressed the typical feelings of Southerners toward the\n         Northerners, the victories and losses of the \n         Confederate Army, heroes such as \n         \"Stonewall\" Jackson, destruction of land\n         and transportation modes, and the changing status of blacks.\n         From January 1861 through April 1865, \n         Louisa Minorreported on the progress of\n         the war. She mentions that when \n         Stonewall Jackson's troops marched\n         through in June 1862, she spent the whole day feeding\n         soldiers, gave up her bed at night, and was paid a visit in\n         the parlor by General \n         Richard Ewell, \"a funny old\n         fellow...[with] the simplicity and heart of a child...\". She\n         also reports on a Christmas dinner given to over 1200 soldiers\n         at the \n         Delevan Hospital, \n         Charlottesville, and Custer's\n         diversionary raid on Rio Hill on February 29, 1864. As time\n         progressed, the effects of the war became personally evident\n         to \n         Louisa Minoras more and more of her\n         family and friends and the surrounding area were affected.\n         During late 1864,and early 1865, \n         Charlottesvillewas more involved in the\n         war, with Yankee raids and destruction of property. \n         Louisa Minorgives a fairly full account\n         of Federal troops passing through \n         Albemarle Countyin March 1865, and\n         describes the hardships of the first year of\n         Reconstruction.","Also included is a bequest, April 23, 1871, of \n         Mary Walker (Lewis) Andersonleaving her\n         table furniture, two feather beds and a trundle bed with bed\n         clothes, \"wearing clothes,\" tin ware, and all personal\n         property and money due her to \n         Louisa Minor."],"userestrict_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eSee the \n            \u003cextref type=\"simple\" href=\"https://www.library.virginia.edu/policies/use-of-materials\"\u003e\n            University of Virginia Library’s use policy.\u003c/extref\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n      "],"userestrict_heading_ssm":["Use Restrictions"],"userestrict_tesim":["See the \n            \n            University of Virginia Library’s use policy."],"physloc_html_tesm":["\u003cphysloc\u003e\u003c/physloc\u003e\n      "],"corpname_ssim":["University of Virginia.

He was a member of the Virginia House of Burgesses from 1769 to 1775, and with R. H. Lee and Patrick Henry initiated the inter-colonial committee of correspondence in 1773. He wrote the widely circulated Summary View of the Rights of British America in 1774. Jefferson was a member of the Continental Congress in 1775 and 1776, and was chairman of committee that prepared Declaration of Independence. Jefferson himself wrote and presented the first draft of Declaration to Congress on July 2, 1776. He then signed Declaration with other founding fathers. Jefferson was Governor of Virginia from 1779 to 1781, and again a member of the Continental Congress from 1783 to 1785. He proposed decimal coinage, a series of provisions later embodied in Ordinance of 1787. He served as U.S. minister to France from 1785 to 1789, and as U.S. Secretary of State from 1790 to 1793. He served as Vice president of the U.S. from 1797 to 1801, and drafted the Kentucky Resolves in 1798, against the Alien and Sedition Acts.","Jefferson was President of the United States from 1801 to 1809, elected by the House of Representatives after a tie in electoral vote (with Aaron Burr, q.v.). His presidential administration is remembered for the purchase of Louisiana from France in 1803 and dispatch of Lewis and Clark to explore it; the war against Algerian pirates from 1801 to 1805; diplomatic trouble with Great Britain over \"impressments\" of American seamen (Embargo Act of 1807); and prohibition of the importation of slaves.","After retirement from presidency, Jefferson lived on his plantation at Monticello near Charlottesville, Virginia. He was instrumental in founding the University of Virginia in 1819. He was a noted naturalist, scholar, and architect, and author of Notes on the State of Virginia in 1785. Jefferson died 4 July 1826 and is buried at Monticello.","Epithet: actor, son of Joseph Jefferson","SNAC Cooperative.
