Some of the letters are written\n in French but the majority of them are in English. During the\n 1720s, Henry frequently advised Lewis to grow another crop\n besides tobacco, saying that Europe could not consume all that\n comes from America. In a letter of January 13, 1730, Henry is\n \"impatient to know what the fate of Europe whether warr or\n Peace everything seems to tend to a Crisis ...,\" possibly\n referring to the trade conflict between England and Spain.","After her husband's death in 1732, Mary (Deane) Latane\n managed the property that came to her and her children, with\n the help of her cousin, \n William Beverley(1698-1756). There are\n several letters, 1733-1750, from Beverley discussing the\n settlement of her husband's estate and the sale of her\n tobacco. In addition, there are business correspondence, bills\n of lading, invoices, and other papers concerning the sale of\n tobacco.","Letters of interest include correspondence of \n Spencer Roane(1762-1822), King and Queen\n County, and \n William Latane(1750-1811), Essex County,\n July 1791-August 1792, concerning the deed and survey for the\n \"Mount Clement Trail of Land,\" and another on July 25, 1804 re\n the suit of Braxton vs Roane; letters on April 19, 1825, June\n 13, 1826, and November 18, 1826, from \n James Montague, \n Harden County, Kentucky, to friends in\n Essex County, concerning various aspects of life in Kentucky\n such as the conflict between anti-relief and relief parties,\n tobacco sales, and prices of corn, flour, cotton, whiskey, et\n al.; one on June 9, 1854, from Rev. \n Henry W.

Watson, Bracketts, chiefly to \n Julia A. Holladay, \n Botetourt County, Virginia, mentioning\n news of family and friends, new dwellings built on Ionia, and\n his being disqualified as a member of the legislature.","Letters pertaining to black history include one of December\n 10, 1772, from \n Samuel Peachey, Jr., \n Occoquan Furnace, to William Latane,\n Essex County, asking him to send a young black at Christmas\n because the latter wants to learn the blacksmith trade; one of\n November 10, 1788, from \n Bartlett Williams, New Kent, to \n William Latane, Essex County, complaining\n about Latane's man Ephraim corrupting his blacks, and\n requesting that he not be permitted to visit his plantation; a\n circular, February 27, 1794, referring to the transportation\n of slaves from Africa to the West-India islands; one of\n February 28, 1809, from S. Chenault, Nelson County, Kentucky,\n re the \"elopement\" of Franklin and his recovery by a Captain\n Lafon who kept him in his possession for awhile;\n correspondence between \n Henry Waring Latane(1782-1860), Essex\n County, and his brother-in-law, \n John Temple( -1812), Parkersburg, re the\n death of Temple's father and the division of his slaves at\n \"Goldberry,\" December 10, 1811 and January 8, 1812; and, one\n of June 13, 1885, from \n Thomas S. Watson, Bracketts, to \n Julia A. Holladay, Botetourt County,\n mentioning the poisoning of some children by a black\n woman.","The business papers are comprised of accounts and\n administrative and estate papers as well as general\n correspondence and papers. The accounts are chiefly for\n members of the Latane and Waring families, and, to a lesser\n extent, for members of the \n Allen familyand \n Temple family. The administrative and\n estate papers concern the estates of \n William Peachey( -1700), \n Lewis Latane(1672-1732), \n Robert Payne Waring(-1799?), \n William Latane(1750-1811), \n John Temple( -1812), \n Lewis Dix( -1815?), \n James Allen( -1820?), \n Ann Latane( -1820?), and \n Henry Waring Latane(1782-1860).

These papers are\n helpful in determining ownership of lands held by the Latane\n Family, \n Roane Family, \n Allen Family, and \n Dix Family. In addition, there are copies\n of wills for members of the Latane, Roane, Allen, and Dix\n families. The wills also contain references to the division of\n blacks among the families.","There are also genealogical, military, and religious\n material. The military papers, 1814-1828, pertain chiefly to\n James Allen's career as captain in the Virginia militia and\n include abstracts of forage, regimental orders, receipt for\n arms, detailed returns of arms accoutrements, and rosters of\n officers and other personnel. Among the miscellaneous papers\n is a small group of material concerning religious matters,\n particularly having to do with \n South Farnham Parishin Essex County.\n Included are a letter, December 17, 1716, from \n Alexander Spotswoodto the vestry of the\n parish re their decision to suspend \n Lewis Latanefrom his ministerial office;\n a hymn book belonging to \n John Latane; and, two letters about the\n weakening of the Church in Virginia.","See the \n \n University of Virginia Library’s use policy.","University of Virginia.

John, a bookstore owner, was also a historian. In 1831 he published the History of Virginia to 1781. Later, he held the position of Federal Collector of Customs in Petersburg, Virginia. Mildred taught at the Petersburg Classical Academy in the 1840's. In addition to Charles, the couple also had two younger children, Alexander (Aleck) S. Campbell, and Elizabeth (Betty) Campbell Maben (d.1871).","Charles' mother, Mildred Walker Moore Campbell, was the granddaughter of Virginia lieutenant governor Alexander Spotswood (1676-1740). Mildred Walker Moore Campbell and her siblings Mary Fairfax Moore Keller, Dr. Alexander Spotswood Moore, Ann Evelina Moore Henley, William Agustin Moore, Eliza Moore McDonald, and Lavinia Moore McPheeters wrote and received numerous pieces of personal correspondence that are available in this collection.","Charles Campbell attended the College of New Jersey (later Princeton University) from 1823-1825. Upon graduation he enrolled in Henry St. George Tucker's School of Law in Winchester, Virginia. However, he suffered from chronic headaches which caused him severe physical and mental exhaustion. By 1829, these health issues would force him to leave the law profession.","Following his departure from law, Campbell worked as an engineer of the Petersburg Railroad. Later he ran a private school for boys in Glencoe, Alabama. On 13 September 1836, he married Elvira N. Callaway (1819-1837) of Monroe County, Tennessee. In 1837, Elvira died shortly after the birth of a son, Callaway Campbell (b.1837). In his distress, Campbell left his son with Elivira's siblings, Thomas and Lucinda Callaway. Later, this would result in a court case to regain custody of his child.","Following the death of his wife, Campbell worked as a clerk in the office of the Collector of Custom in Petersburg, Virginia (a position he obtained from his father John Campbell). From 1840-1843, Campbell also owned, published, and edited a Petersburg newspaper, The American Statesman. He returned to teaching in 1842 by opening a classical school in Petersburg, becoming both teacher and administrator in the Anderson Seminary. He would hold these positions until the formation of free public schools in 1870.","Campbell remarried in 1850 to Miss Anna Birdsall of Rahway, New Jersey. They had four children, Mary Spotswood Campbell Robinson (b.1852), Nanny Campbell (b.1854), Charles Campbell (b.1856), and Fanny Campbell (1858-1860's).","Charles Campbell was committed to Western Lunatic Asylum at Staunton, Virginia, in 1873 where he remained until his death on July 11, 1876. He was buried at Blandford Church Cemetery, Petersburg.","Like his father, Campbell was a historian. He began contributing to journals in 1834. Some of the journals to which he frequently contributed included; The Southern Literary Messenger or The Southern and Western Literary Messenger and Review, The Farmer's Register, The New Yorker, and the Petersburg Intelligencer. His most important work, however, was the History of the Colony and Ancient Dominion of Virginia. This work built upon his father's book and concerned Virginia history from the colony's founding to the Revolutionary War.","Other Information:","Additional information may be found at http://ead.lib.virginia.edu/vivaead/published/wm/viw00063.frame","The materials at Duke are comprised of copies of historical documents and letters, and personal papers of Charles Campbell (1807-1876), historian, editor, and antiquarian.
