After immigrating to Baltimore, Maryland around 1823, he moved to Virginia before August 13, 1868, to continue his profession as a stonemason at Fort Monroe. There, he married Diana Whiting Smith of Elizabeth City County and had at least two children, Samuel Gordon Cumming and Hugh Smith Cumming. In 1879, he established the Hampton Presbyterian Church, now known as First Presbyterian Church. He remarried after Diana's death to Margaret Cumming, and had several other children, including the Presbyterian Missionary, Calvin Knox Cumming. His son, Samuel Gordon Cumming, an attorney in Hampton, Virginia, died in 1920 after being shot by his wife, Elizabeth Bell Waller, following a divorce agreement. Marital ties expanded the Cumming Family to include members from the Waller, Booth, West, Whiting, Kendrick and Smith families.","Hugh Smith Cumming was born on August 17, 1869, in Hampton, Virginia. He attended high school at Baltimore City College and then matriculated at the University of Virginia to study medicine. In 1896, he married Lucy Almira Booth, whose grandfather, Edwin Gilliam Booth, was a noted Philadelphia lawyer and philanthropist to Confederate prisoners held in Northern prisons during the American Civil War. The couple had three children: Hugh Smith Cumming, Jr., Clara Diana Cumming (Kendrick,) and Lucy Booth Cumming, who died as an infant. His half-nephew, Samuel Calvin Cumming, was a Major General in the United States Marine Corps who served during the first and second World Wars and died in 1986.","He graduated from medical school at the University College of Medicine in Richmond, Virginia. A year later, in 1895, he began working as a physician for the United States Marine Hospital Service during which time he was stationed in San Francisco and Ellis Island, among other posts. During the World War I, he was then detailed to the U.S. Navy as an adviser in sanitation. In February 1920, he was appointed to be the fifth Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service by President Woodrow Wilson. He kept his position as Surgeon General until he retired in 1936 but continued working as director of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau until his death in 1948.","Hugh Smith Cumming's son, Hugh Smith Cumming, Jr. was born March 10, 1900, in Richmond, Virginia, and married Winifred Burney West in 1935, with whom he had no recorded children. He graduated from Western High School in Washington, D.C. before attending the Virginia Military Institute and serving in the United States Army during the first World War. After graduating with a degree in law from the University of Virginia in 1924, he worked in the international department of the National City Bank of New York.","In 1927, Cumming, Jr., accepted a position at the United States Department of State as a clerk with the U.S. Legation in Peking, China. He was then transferred to Washington, D.C. and worked to assist diplomatic and economic relations between the U.S. and several Northern European countries, namely Sweden, and in 1936, he was appointed Executive Assistant to U.S. Secretary of State, Cordell Hull.","During the World War II, he represented the State Department during the Joint Anglo Swedish American Commission dealing with Allied Pilots downed in Neutral Sweden. After the war, he was a founding conference delegate to the United Nations, and from 1947 to 1950, was counselor of the U.S. Embassy in Sweden. From 1950 to 1952, he acted as counselor of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow and briefly acted as its ambassador.","Cumming, Jr., was the Deputy Secretary General for Political Affairs of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) before U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower nominated him for the position of ambassador to Indonesia, where he served in Djakarta from 1954-1957. After returning to Washington, he organized the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research. He retired in 1964, after working as Counselor for the State Department.","He was a member of several social clubs, including the Alibi Club of Washington, D.C., and the Chevy Chase club of Chevy Chase, Maryland. He survived his wife by eight years and died in 1986.","Reference list:","Cumming, H. S. (1945–1977). Hugh S. Cumming papers (MS C 325).

After immigrating to Baltimore, Maryland around 1823, he moved to Virginia before August 13, 1868, to continue his profession as a stonemason at Fort Monroe. There, he married Diana Whiting Smith of Elizabeth City County and had at least two children, Samuel Gordon Cumming and Hugh Smith Cumming. In 1879, he established the Hampton Presbyterian Church, now known as First Presbyterian Church. He remarried after Diana's death to Margaret Cumming, and had several other children, including the Presbyterian Missionary, Calvin Knox Cumming. His son, Samuel Gordon Cumming, an attorney in Hampton, Virginia, died in 1920 after being shot by his wife, Elizabeth Bell Waller, following a divorce agreement. Marital ties expanded the Cumming Family to include members from the Waller, Booth, West, Whiting, Kendrick and Smith families.","Hugh Smith Cumming was born on August 17, 1869, in Hampton, Virginia. He attended high school at Baltimore City College and then matriculated at the University of Virginia to study medicine. In 1896, he married Lucy Almira Booth, whose grandfather, Edwin Gilliam Booth, was a noted Philadelphia lawyer and philanthropist to Confederate prisoners held in Northern prisons during the American Civil War. The couple had three children: Hugh Smith Cumming, Jr., Clara Diana Cumming (Kendrick,) and Lucy Booth Cumming, who died as an infant. His half-nephew, Samuel Calvin Cumming, was a Major General in the United States Marine Corps who served during the first and second World Wars and died in 1986.","He graduated from medical school at the University College of Medicine in Richmond, Virginia. A year later, in 1895, he began working as a physician for the United States Marine Hospital Service during which time he was stationed in San Francisco and Ellis Island, among other posts. During the World War I, he was then detailed to the U.S. Navy as an adviser in sanitation. In February 1920, he was appointed to be the fifth Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service by President Woodrow Wilson. He kept his position as Surgeon General until he retired in 1936 but continued working as director of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau until his death in 1948.","Hugh Smith Cumming's son, Hugh Smith Cumming, Jr. was born March 10, 1900, in Richmond, Virginia, and married Winifred Burney West in 1935, with whom he had no recorded children.

He was then transferred to Washington, D.C. and worked to assist diplomatic and economic relations between the U.S. and several Northern European countries, namely Sweden, and in 1936, he was appointed Executive Assistant to U.S. Secretary of State, Cordell Hull.","During the World War II, he represented the State Department during the Joint Anglo Swedish American Commission dealing with Allied Pilots downed in Neutral Sweden.

After immigrating to Baltimore, Maryland around 1823, he moved to Virginia before August 13, 1868, to continue his profession as a stonemason at Fort Monroe. There, he married Diana Whiting Smith of Elizabeth City County and had at least two children, Samuel Gordon Cumming and Hugh Smith Cumming. In 1879, he established the Hampton Presbyterian Church, now known as First Presbyterian Church. He remarried after Diana's death to Margaret Cumming, and had several other children, including the Presbyterian Missionary, Calvin Knox Cumming. His son, Samuel Gordon Cumming, an attorney in Hampton, Virginia, died in 1920 after being shot by his wife, Elizabeth Bell Waller, following a divorce agreement. Marital ties expanded the Cumming Family to include members from the Waller, Booth, West, Whiting, Kendrick and Smith families.","Hugh Smith Cumming was born on August 17, 1869, in Hampton, Virginia. He attended high school at Baltimore City College and then matriculated at the University of Virginia to study medicine. In 1896, he married Lucy Almira Booth, whose grandfather, Edwin Gilliam Booth, was a noted Philadelphia lawyer and philanthropist to Confederate prisoners held in Northern prisons during the American Civil War. The couple had three children: Hugh Smith Cumming, Jr., Clara Diana Cumming (Kendrick,) and Lucy Booth Cumming, who died as an infant. His half-nephew, Samuel Calvin Cumming, was a Major General in the United States Marine Corps who served during the first and second World Wars and died in 1986.","He graduated from medical school at the University College of Medicine in Richmond, Virginia. A year later, in 1895, he began working as a physician for the United States Marine Hospital Service during which time he was stationed in San Francisco and Ellis Island, among other posts. During the World War I, he was then detailed to the U.S. Navy as an adviser in sanitation. In February 1920, he was appointed to be the fifth Surgeon General of the United States Public Health Service by President Woodrow Wilson. He kept his position as Surgeon General until he retired in 1936 but continued working as director of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau until his death in 1948.","Hugh Smith Cumming's son, Hugh Smith Cumming, Jr. was born March 10, 1900, in Richmond, Virginia, and married Winifred Burney West in 1935, with whom he had no recorded children. He graduated from Western High School in Washington, D.C. before attending the Virginia Military Institute and serving in the United States Army during the first World War. After graduating with a degree in law from the University of Virginia in 1924, he worked in the international department of the National City Bank of New York.","In 1927, Cumming, Jr., accepted a position at the United States Department of State as a clerk with the U.S. Legation in Peking, China. He was then transferred to Washington, D.C. and worked to assist diplomatic and economic relations between the U.S. and several Northern European countries, namely Sweden, and in 1936, he was appointed Executive Assistant to U.S. Secretary of State, Cordell Hull.","During the World War II, he represented the State Department during the Joint Anglo Swedish American Commission dealing with Allied Pilots downed in Neutral Sweden. After the war, he was a founding conference delegate to the United Nations, and from 1947 to 1950, was counselor of the U.S. Embassy in Sweden. From 1950 to 1952, he acted as counselor of the U.S. Embassy in Moscow and briefly acted as its ambassador.","Cumming, Jr., was the Deputy Secretary General for Political Affairs of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) before U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower nominated him for the position of ambassador to Indonesia, where he served in Djakarta from 1954-1957. After returning to Washington, he organized the State Department's Bureau of Intelligence and Research. He retired in 1964, after working as Counselor for the State Department.","He was a member of several social clubs, including the Alibi Club of Washington, D.C., and the Chevy Chase club of Chevy Chase, Maryland. He survived his wife by eight years and died in 1986.","Reference list:","Cumming, H. S. (1945–1977). Hugh S. Cumming papers (MS C 325).

They are not intended to be a replacement for the original materials or their digital surrogates.","The Nau Collection was processed from October 2021 to March 2023. Because it is an artificial collection with no original order, it was arranged into series to emphasize the provenance of collection materials and to restore materials attributed to or associated with the same individual. Provenance was determined by the archival materials themselves as well as by donor metadata. Additional resources consulted during processing included The National Park Service's online Civil War Soldiers and Sailors Database (https://www.nps.gov/civilwar/soldiers-and-sailors-database.htm); Grover C. Criswell and Clarence L. Criswell's Confederate and Southern State Currency, vol. 1, (Pass-A-Grille, Florida: Criswell's Publications, 1957); John H. Eicher and David J. Eicher's Civil War High Commands (Stanford, California: Stanford University Press, 2001); and the Library of Congress's online newspapers database (https://www.loc.gov/newspapers/).","Efforts were made to restore materials to record creators and keep these materials together. However, there are some exceptions, particularly in relation to high-profile historical figures. For example, materials relating to Robert E. Lee and William Tecumseh Sherman can be found in Series 1, 2, and 3.","File titles have been devised by the archivist and each contains a donor accession number (see note titled Alphanumeric Designations). Wherever possible or applicable, titles attributed to materials by record creators are included.","The John L. Nau III Civil War History Collection (1806-1988, bulk 1861-1865; 133 cubic feet) contains Civil War-era correspondence, service records, pension records, artifacts, photographs, military records (including orders, requisitions, and correspondence), currency, newspapers, and other print materials.","The collection primarily contains the correspondence, records, and photographs of white soldiers and officers who fought in the Civil War, including white officers serving in the United States Colored Troops (USCT). Additionally, the collection includes some correspondence and portraits of white women as well as a small number of portraits of Black soldiers (including PT0322, a family portrait, and a young Ben Brown, PC0836.0001) and Native American soldiers (including Frederick L. Rainbow, PT0424.0001).","Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections Library","The John L. Nau III Civil War History Collection is predominantly in English.
