The diaries give an extensive picture of Wayt's agricultural activities; family and religious life; and social surroundings. They cover his youth, education, and teaching career; the daily operations of his farm; the youth and adult life of his three children; and local and national political activities.","Volumes 1-5 cover the years from 1892 to October 1915, when Wayt moved between the family farm in Millsboro and school in Moundsville, West Virginia, and then began his teaching career in Moundsville. They give frequent accounts of his youthful social activities (swimming, fishing, dances, and picnics; political, literary, and league meetings; playing games, baseball, and hunting; and meeting and courting different girls), school (studies, exams, and his early years teaching), the weather, and his work on the farm and in the fields (cutting apples and corn, plowing, potatoes, picking berries, etc.).

Major topics remain the same and include the farm, the weather, the children's education and activities, the family's health, and Will and Maggie's social events. Other significant topics include the birth of their daughter, Margaret; New Deal programs and President Roosevelt; World War II; Will's retirement from teaching in 1942; and the death of his mother in February 1943, two years after she suffered a major stroke.","Volumes 13-15, document Wayt's life from March 1943 to May 1947, through Will and Maggie's move from the farm into town, the end of World War II, and daughter Margaret's graduation from high school.

Entries chiefly concern Harman Williams and William Wayt's overseas military service and their return to the States in 1945; Lorna Wayt Williams'; work at a war plant; war news; Will B. Wayt's wartime work in a whip factory; and the family's move from the farm into a house in town. Other topics, including farm and garden chores, weather, and Margaret's social activities, also appear frequently.","Volumes 16-22, cover the period from May 1947 to January 1956, the last ten years of William Wayt's life. Entries continue to focus on household and garden chores (planting, gardening, canning); daily activities (shopping, hunting, church, picnics, fairs, and visits with his children, friends, and other relatives); the weather; family news (weddings, jobs, and grandchildren); holidays; and Maggie's ill health in 1954.

The diaries give an extensive picture of Wayt's agricultural activities; family and religious life; and social surroundings. They cover his youth, education, and teaching career; the daily operations of his farm; the youth and adult life of his three children; and local and national political activities.","Volumes 1-5 cover the years from 1892 to October 1915, when Wayt moved between the family farm in Millsboro and school in Moundsville, West Virginia, and then began his teaching career in Moundsville. They give frequent accounts of his youthful social activities (swimming, fishing, dances, and picnics; political, literary, and league meetings; playing games, baseball, and hunting; and meeting and courting different girls), school (studies, exams, and his early years teaching), the weather, and his work on the farm and in the fields (cutting apples and corn, plowing, potatoes, picking berries, etc.). There are significant gaps in the diaries from 1907 to 1909, when Will suffered from serious bouts of rheumatism. Beginning in 1913, when Will starts teaching, entries comment more frequently on school (meetings, procedures, student behavior and discipline) and his courtship with his future wife, Margaret \"Maggie\" Allen.","Volumes 6-8 cover the period from November 1915 to December 1933, approximately the first fifteen years of Will's marriage to Maggie and their family life on their farm outside Moundsville. These diaries contain a full account of Will's daily farming activities (planting fruit trees, working in the garden, buying animals, harvesting crops, selling produce in town, etc.); the weather and its impact on the farm; domestic life (the birth and childhood of his first two children, the family's health and illnesses, Maggie's domestic chores and work at local elections, shopping trips to Moundsville and Wheeling, and holiday celebrations); his teaching jobs; and their social life (church, teaching Sunday school, visits with neighbors and relatives, going for drives, and local elections). Will also comments on major events of the early 20th century, including World War I, the flu epidemic of 1918, the Depression, and the election of President Franklin Roosevelt, illustrating the impact of these national events on his family and local community.","Volumes 9-12 cover the period from January 1934 to March 1943 and continue to document the lives of Will and his family. Major topics remain the same and include the farm, the weather, the children's education and activities, the family's health, and Will and Maggie's social events. Other significant topics include the birth of their daughter, Margaret; New Deal programs and President Roosevelt; World War II; Will's retirement from teaching in 1942; and the death of his mother in February 1943, two years after she suffered a major stroke.","Volumes 13-15, document Wayt's life from March 1943 to May 1947, through Will and Maggie's move from the farm into town, the end of World War II, and daughter Margaret's graduation from high school. Topics from this time period reveal the impact of World War II on Wayt and his family as both his son and son-in-law served overseas. Entries chiefly concern Harman Williams and William Wayt's overseas military service and their return to the States in 1945; Lorna Wayt Williams'; work at a war plant; war news; Will B. Wayt's wartime work in a whip factory; and the family's move from the farm into a house in town. Other topics, including farm and garden chores, weather, and Margaret's social activities, also appear frequently.","Volumes 16-22, cover the period from May 1947 to January 1956, the last ten years of William Wayt's life. Entries continue to focus on household and garden chores (planting, gardening, canning); daily activities (shopping, hunting, church, picnics, fairs, and visits with his children, friends, and other relatives); the weather; family news (weddings, jobs, and grandchildren); holidays; and Maggie's ill health in 1954.

She was the wife of Lexington Presbyterian minister, Rev. William Spotswood White (1800-1873), minister of the Lexington Presbyterian Church from 1848-1867. They had seven children who lived to adulthood: James Jones \"Old Zeus\" White (faculty member at Washington and Lee University), Rev. George William White, Eliza Westmore White Wade, Rev. Henry Martyn White, Harriet Newell White McCrum, Captain Hugh Augustus White (who died at Manassas), and Thomas Spotswood White. Jane and William also had a son, John Spotswood White, who died in infancy. She was a devout Christian as evidenced by her writings. Jane died on October 3, 1878.","This collection contains a scrapbook, diary, and correspondence belonging to Jane Isabella Watt White.","The scrapbook was started in 1855 and primarily contains newspaper clippings, including obituaries for relatives such as her parents (George and Margaret Watt), Jane Watt, Sarah Maria Massie (sister), and Harriet McCrum (daughter) as well as other individuals including Clement P. McKennie. Other clippings are published poems, prayers, and religious meditations. Of particular note are several handwritten items. One is a handwritten poem written \"To the Memory of my Sister Eliza\" (Eliza Westmore). Another is \"For a little girl's sampler\" copied by hand by Jane. The last item is labeled \"Extracts from 'Aunt's Scrapbook'\" (Mrs. D. J. Jones) written out by someone with the initials E. J. G. of Williamsburg, Va. Three letters are also tipped into the scrapbook. The first letter is dated April 6, 1841 and was written to White by James Jones of Mountain Hall in Nottoway County, Virginia. Jones was a physician and statesman who goes into detail about the \"febrile attacks\" (seizures) his wife (Catherine) recently experienced and describes at length her condition. He wrote, \"I believe I have the best medical aid our part of the Country affords on which I look for Divine Blessing with some comfort.\" The second letter is dated May 12, 1848 and written to Rev. William and Jane White by Catherine Jones of Mountain Hall who describes the last days of her husband, James Jones, before his passing in April. She thanks Rev. White for remembering her husband during his sermon. She ends the letter by giving information about her husband's early life. The final letter is dated August 26, 1848 and written to Rev. William White by Catherine Jones of Mountain Hall. It acknowledges his move from Charlottesville for a new job [as minister of Lexington Presbyterian Church]. She wrote, \"I fear that the mountains will be a barrier\" between his family and her. She mentions James (her son) and describes him as a \"link (among others) in the chain of my comforts that has been broken off.\"","The collection also includes a few letters. One was written in March 1848 by Jane to her father, George Watt, with a letter written by William White to him on the back of Jane's. Jane shares that her oldest son (James) has accepted Christ into this life a year after his brother George. She goes into detail describing the kind of person James is. William also shares his excitement over seeing his sons sitting at the \"table of the Lord.\" Another letter was written to Jane by her son, Hugh, while he was studying at the Union Theological Seminary in April 1861. The letter outlines his thoughts about the war founded in his religious beliefs. He informs his mother that he is mustering in the Hampden-Sydney company although he hasn't joined it, saying he prefers to join a company at Washington College. There are two letters written by Jane to her son Tommie. One was written at the start of his military service during the Civil War. The first letter acknowledges that he is her youngest child and she says, \"O! how it rends my heart to give you up, especially as you are not a Christian.\" The second letter was written after the death of his brother Hugh in 1862. Both letters are undated. Both letters plead with him to come to Christ. The last letter in the collection was written by Margaret Junkin Preston to Jane on September 1862 offering her condolences on the loss of son Hugh.","Jane's diary spans from 1855-1875 though is not comprehensive. As evidenced by her writing, she was a devout Christian. The subjects of her diary include religion, her children, their spouses, her grandchildren, the Civil War (including her thoughts about the North, her sons, Liberty Hall Volunteers), illness (such as typhoid fever, scarlet fever,  diptheria), and death (family and friends). Of particular note is her inclusion of the death of an enslaved boy named John Daniel in her diary. She mentions his death in her July 29, 1856 entry writing, \"The death of a little servant boy saddened us much. His illness was long, and severe, but his death was comforting.\" Jane wrote out the conversation she had with John Daniel as he was on his death bed, which was rooted in religion. She documented that he suffered from fever, a violent pain in his head, and partial paralysis. He was eleven years old.","The materials from Washington and Lee University Special Collections are made available for use in research, teaching, and private study, pursuant to U.S. Copyright law.

He wrote, \"I believe I have the best medical aid our part of the Country affords on which I look for Divine Blessing with some comfort.\" The second letter is dated May 12, 1848 and written to Rev. William and Jane White by Catherine Jones of Mountain Hall who describes the last days of her husband, James Jones, before his passing in April. She thanks Rev. White for remembering her husband during his sermon. She ends the letter by giving information about her husband's early life. The final letter is dated August 26, 1848 and written to Rev. William White by Catherine Jones of Mountain Hall. It acknowledges his move from Charlottesville for a new job [as minister of Lexington Presbyterian Church]. She wrote, \"I fear that the mountains will be a barrier\" between his family and her. She mentions James (her son) and describes him as a \"link (among others) in the chain of my comforts that has been broken off.\"","The collection also includes a few letters. One was written in March 1848 by Jane to her father, George Watt, with a letter written by William White to him on the back of Jane's. Jane shares that her oldest son (James) has accepted Christ into this life a year after his brother George. She goes into detail describing the kind of person James is. William also shares his excitement over seeing his sons sitting at the \"table of the Lord.\" Another letter was written to Jane by her son, Hugh, while he was studying at the Union Theological Seminary in April 1861. The letter outlines his thoughts about the war founded in his religious beliefs. He informs his mother that he is mustering in the Hampden-Sydney company although he hasn't joined it, saying he prefers to join a company at Washington College. There are two letters written by Jane to her son Tommie. One was written at the start of his military service during the Civil War. The first letter acknowledges that he is her youngest child and she says, \"O! how it rends my heart to give you up, especially as you are not a Christian.\" The second letter was written after the death of his brother Hugh in 1862. Both letters are undated. Both letters plead with him to come to Christ. The last letter in the collection was written by Margaret Junkin Preston to Jane on September 1862 offering her condolences on the loss of son Hugh.","Jane's diary spans from 1855-1875 though is not comprehensive. As evidenced by her writing, she was a devout Christian. The subjects of her diary include religion, her children, their spouses, her grandchildren, the Civil War (including her thoughts about the North, her sons, Liberty Hall Volunteers), illness (such as typhoid fever, scarlet fever,  diptheria), and death (family and friends). Of particular note is her inclusion of the death of an enslaved boy named John Daniel in her diary. She mentions his death in her July 29, 1856 entry writing, \"The death of a little servant boy saddened us much. His illness was long, and severe, but his death was comforting.\" Jane wrote out the conversation she had with John Daniel as he was on his death bed, which was rooted in religion.

After spending his childhood in Missouri, Woods married Mary Emma Caldwell, the daughter of a wealthy slaveholder and planter from Alabama in 1860. In 1861, Woods moved to Lebanon, Tennessee, to pursue his law degree at Cumberland University. Despite his ties to the South, Woods hated slavery and strongly supported the Union. Following the war's beginning and interruption of his education, he returned home to farm and teach.","Due to his support for the Union, Woods chose to remain at home throughout the beginning of the war until his conscription into the Confederate army in October of 1862. While at first Woods fought to remain at home, the threat of imprisonment eventually sparked him to report to the army, where he was drafted into the 36th Alabama Infantry Regiment, Company K. As a part of this regiment, Woods was trained at Talladega and then posted around Mobile, Alabama.","While at Mobile, Woods and a few fellow Unionist conscripts formed a secret Unionist organization called the Home Circle and planned a mutiny. Unfortunately, Woods was discovered prior to their planned mutiny and imprisoned to be tried. While awaiting his court martial, Woods was transported behind the army, following them through the Tullahoma Campaign and was then sent to Atlanta. His trial resulted in a sentence of death by firing squad; however, his execution was delayed due to the interference of a sympathetic general who had been his professor before the war. Woods saw the Battles of Chickamauga and Chattanooga while imprisoned by the Confederate Army until he was once again sent to Atlanta following a stay of execution, furnished at the last minute from Jefferson Davis. He was then sent to work building trenches around Atlanta until he finally escaped Confederate officials on August 11, 1864, and made his way into Union lines.","Following his escape, Woods made his way to Buffalo, New York, where he enlisted in the 93rd New York Infantry Regiment. He served out the rest of the war as a clerk for the Union Army until his discharge on May 11, 1865. Following the war, Woods returned home and continued to teach, moving to Lawrence County, Missouri sometime before 1885. In 1885, his wife Mary died and in 1889, he married Mae Laverall of Pennsylvania. Woods died on March 5, 1901, and is buried alongside both of his wives and his daughter in the Woodland Cemetery near Springfield, Missouri.","The processing, arrangement, and description of the John Henning Woods Papers was completed in September 2017.","This collection includes three memoir volumes and three diaries written by John Henning Woods, a Southern Unionist, Confederate conscript, and eventual Union soldier during the American Civil War. While the collection spans the period of years from 1856 through 1873, the majority of the collection focuses on the years during the Civil War.","The three volumes of Woods' memoir make up the largest portion of the collection. These three books focus on the years 1861-1864, describing  his experiences of sectionalism, his opposition to secession and conscription, the process of forming an underground Unionist society in a Confederate regiment, his arrest for inciting a mutiny, and the resulting imprisonment and trial.","The three journals cover a much broader range of topics and years, including genealogy, religion, marriage, slavery, and Woods' childhood. These three journals serve to contextualize the journals, as Woods referenced them during the writing process. Besides this, these journals also contain highly detailed drawings done by Woods during his imprisonment and a number of short entries in Pitman shorthand.","Permission to publish material from the John Henning Woods Papers must be obtained from Special Collections, Virginia Tech.","This collection includes three memoir volumes and three diaries written by John Henning Woods, a Southern Unionist, Confederate conscript, and eventual Union soldier during the American Civil War.
