Some letters and photographs are fragile or have areas of loss, but have been placed in archival sleeves for researcher access.","The Redd family's Virginia origins trace to William Rufus de Redde, who immigrated to Virginia from England with Governor Alexander Spottswood during the reign of Queen Anne (approximately 1702–1714). Upon settling in Spotsylvania County, he adopted the anglicized surname Redd, married a niece of Governor Spottswood (Miss Moore), and had three sons: John Rufus, Thomas, and George.","His eldest son, Col. John Rufus Redd, was born in Spotsylvania County, educated in Virginia and England, served in the House of Burgesses, participated in the French and Indian Wars, and subsequently moved to Buckingham County. He married a granddaughter of Governor Spottswood and daughter of Captain Nathaniel Dandridge. He and his wife had eleven children – six sons and five daughters – and Col. Redd was wounded at the Battle of Camden (1780) during the Revolutionary War.","Major John Redd (b. October 20, 1755, Buckingham County, Virginia; d. August 11, 1850, Henry County, Virginia), the eldest son of Col. John Rufus Redd, relocated to Henry County (then part of Halifax County) at approximately age seventeen. He volunteered for military service at the outset of the Revolutionary War under Captain Bryce Martin, rose to the rank of Major of Cavalry, and was present at the surrender of Lord Cornwallis at Yorktown on October 19, 1781. He married Mary Waller, daughter of Col. George Waller, a fellow Revolutionary officer, and had ten children. He served as a representative of Henry County in the Virginia Legislature for approximately twenty years, including the 1798–1799 session. He resided at a property called Marrowbone in the southern portion of Henry County, where he was interred in a family cemetery. His will and estate documentation establish activity in the county from approximately the 1780s through his death.","Eugene Mason Redd (fl. c. 1835–1926) and James M. Redd (J.M. Redd) are the principal family figures documented in the later portions of this collection. Both are represented through agricultural account books (c. 1871–1915, 1901–1906, 1909–1919), receipts (c. 1896–1926), and papers related to the Virginia Electric Cooperative (c. 1899–1943). Estate documentation for James Redd extends the record to 1971.","Ethel Blaine Tompkins Redd connected the Redd family to the Tompkins and Blaine families. Her father, Metellas Woods Tompkins, is represented by papers dating to approximately 1890. Dr. Hamilton L. Blaine, whose documents and certificates span 1850–1917, is documented in association with the Blaine family line. The Redd and Tompkins family records (c. 1835–1948) reflect the combined households and shared property interests of these families.","The Redd family held the Bellevette home tract, for which a chain of custody is documented from approximately 1745 to 1972. Family members also participated in the United Daughters of the Confederacy, evidenced by a 1943 application in the collection.","This collection contains correspondence, deeds, estate indentures, account books, receipts notebooks, photographs, carte-de-visite, genealogical research and trees, clippings, a tintype, and ephemera, including wallets, a metal box, and a lock of hair documenting the Rose, Redd, and Claiborne families of Virginia. Names frequently appearing in papers include Eugene M. Redd and his son James Redd.

Few of the\n         entries are attributed to other authors. While some of the\n         unattributed entries (such as the anecdotes) may simply have\n         been recorded by the compiler, it appears that a majority of\n         the entires may be \n         Hugh McConnel's original composition.","The volume contains approximately four hundred entries:\n         American, English, and Masonic poems, songs, and verse, as\n         well as anecdotes, maxims, essays, and historical notes. Major\n         themes include American patriotism, anti-British sentiment,\n         wit and humor, military history, love, philosophy, ethics, and\n         Freemasonry. A number of the songs and anecdotes are somewhat\n         risque.

Due to its deteriorated condition, the volume\n         was debound, and the pages deacidifed and laminated by the\n         Barrow process.","[The bird that hears her nestlings cry...]","[What's fickle as the wind, the French\n               delight...]","[To the Brethren most ancient, [may] I them\n               address...]","[Take that cardinal virtue most blended with\n               art...]","[How like the fleeting wind, away...]","[My muse now thy aid and assistance we claim...]","[From Scottish mountains hid in snow...]","[An unbelieving Jew one day was skating o'er...]","[Is prudence the cardinal virtue you mean...]","[Could I command the riches of a crown...]","[Hark, hark, the joy-inspiring horn...]","[Her sheep had in clusters [crept] close to a\n               grove...]","[Fair Hebe I left with a cautious [design]...]","[The world is like a whirly gig and swiftly\n               spins...]","[Hark, hark, the joyful news is come...]","[Says Plato why should man be vain...]","[Now has the Brittens snatch'd a short repast...]","[The lofty pillars of the sky...]","[Peace worthy shade!

(See\n         \"author's inscription\" on page 34, etc. The compiler docketed\n         several of the entries \"Fish Kill,\" \"Landing,\" or\n         alternatively, \"Fish Kill Barricks,\" \"Barricks,\" \"Barr-s,\" or\n         \"B.\") The volume was evidently compiled 1777-1788, but\n         includes items originating at earlier dates. Few of the\n         entries are attributed to other authors. While some of the\n         unattributed entries (such as the anecdotes) may simply have\n         been recorded by the compiler, it appears that a majority of\n         the entires may be \n         Hugh McConnel's original composition.","The volume contains approximately four hundred entries:\n         American, English, and Masonic poems, songs, and verse, as\n         well as anecdotes, maxims, essays, and historical notes. Major\n         themes include American patriotism, anti-British sentiment,\n         wit and humor, military history, love, philosophy, ethics, and\n         Freemasonry. A number of the songs and anecdotes are somewhat\n         risque. A watercolored fraktur appears on page 61, and an\n         engraving, \"New York Packet,\" appears on page 187.","Pages 184-186, 299, 338, and 351 are blank.","Items listed in order of their appearance.","Condition","It appears that at least one page at the beginning of the\n         volume was lost, and significant portions of pages 59-62,\n         97-98, 101-102, 313-314, and 341-346 were cut or torn out\n         prior to the acquisition of the volume; other textual loss has\n         resulted from damage to the edges of the pages and the acidity\n         of the ink used. Due to its deteriorated condition, the volume\n         was debound, and the pages deacidifed and laminated by the\n         Barrow process.","[The bird that hears her nestlings cry...]","[What's fickle as the wind, the French\n               delight...]","[To the Brethren most ancient, [may] I them\n               address...]","[Take that cardinal virtue most blended with\n               art...]","[How like the fleeting wind, away...]","[My muse now thy aid and assistance we claim...]","[From Scottish mountains hid in snow...]","[An unbelieving Jew one day was skating o'er...]","[Is prudence the cardinal virtue you mean...]","[Could I command the riches of a crown...]","[Hark, hark, the joy-inspiring horn...]","[Her sheep had in clusters [crept] close to a\n               grove...]","[Fair Hebe I left with a cautious [design]...]","[The world is like a whirly gig and swiftly\n               spins...]","[Hark, hark, the joyful news is come...]","[Says Plato why should man be vain...]","[Now has the Brittens snatch'd a short repast...]","[The lofty pillars of the sky...]","[Peace worthy shade!

(See\n         \"author's inscription\" on page 34, etc. The compiler docketed\n         several of the entries \"Fish Kill,\" \"Landing,\" or\n         alternatively, \"Fish Kill Barricks,\" \"Barricks,\" \"Barr-s,\" or\n         \"B.\") The volume was evidently compiled 1777-1788, but\n         includes items originating at earlier dates. Few of the\n         entries are attributed to other authors. While some of the\n         unattributed entries (such as the anecdotes) may simply have\n         been recorded by the compiler, it appears that a majority of\n         the entires may be \n         Hugh McConnel's original composition.","The volume contains approximately four hundred entries:\n         American, English, and Masonic poems, songs, and verse, as\n         well as anecdotes, maxims, essays, and historical notes. Major\n         themes include American patriotism, anti-British sentiment,\n         wit and humor, military history, love, philosophy, ethics, and\n         Freemasonry. A number of the songs and anecdotes are somewhat\n         risque.

Due to its deteriorated condition, the volume\n         was debound, and the pages deacidifed and laminated by the\n         Barrow process.","[The bird that hears her nestlings cry...]","[What's fickle as the wind, the French\n               delight...]","[To the Brethren most ancient, [may] I them\n               address...]","[Take that cardinal virtue most blended with\n               art...]","[How like the fleeting wind, away...]","[My muse now thy aid and assistance we claim...]","[From Scottish mountains hid in snow...]","[An unbelieving Jew one day was skating o'er...]","[Is prudence the cardinal virtue you mean...]","[Could I command the riches of a crown...]","[Hark, hark, the joy-inspiring horn...]","[Her sheep had in clusters [crept] close to a\n               grove...]","[Fair Hebe I left with a cautious [design]...]","[The world is like a whirly gig and swiftly\n               spins...]","[Hark, hark, the joyful news is come...]","[Says Plato why should man be vain...]","[Now has the Brittens snatch'd a short repast...]","[The lofty pillars of the sky...]","[Peace worthy shade!

(See\n         \"author's inscription\" on page 34, etc. The compiler docketed\n         several of the entries \"Fish Kill,\" \"Landing,\" or\n         alternatively, \"Fish Kill Barricks,\" \"Barricks,\" \"Barr-s,\" or\n         \"B.\") The volume was evidently compiled 1777-1788, but\n         includes items originating at earlier dates. Few of the\n         entries are attributed to other authors. While some of the\n         unattributed entries (such as the anecdotes) may simply have\n         been recorded by the compiler, it appears that a majority of\n         the entires may be \n         Hugh McConnel's original composition.","The volume contains approximately four hundred entries:\n         American, English, and Masonic poems, songs, and verse, as\n         well as anecdotes, maxims, essays, and historical notes. Major\n         themes include American patriotism, anti-British sentiment,\n         wit and humor, military history, love, philosophy, ethics, and\n         Freemasonry. A number of the songs and anecdotes are somewhat\n         risque.

Due to its deteriorated condition, the volume\n         was debound, and the pages deacidifed and laminated by the\n         Barrow process.","[The bird that hears her nestlings cry...]","[What's fickle as the wind, the French\n               delight...]","[To the Brethren most ancient, [may] I them\n               address...]","[Take that cardinal virtue most blended with\n               art...]","[How like the fleeting wind, away...]","[My muse now thy aid and assistance we claim...]","[From Scottish mountains hid in snow...]","[An unbelieving Jew one day was skating o'er...]","[Is prudence the cardinal virtue you mean...]","[Could I command the riches of a crown...]","[Hark, hark, the joy-inspiring horn...]","[Her sheep had in clusters [crept] close to a\n               grove...]","[Fair Hebe I left with a cautious [design]...]","[The world is like a whirly gig and swiftly\n               spins...]","[Hark, hark, the joyful news is come...]","[Says Plato why should man be vain...]","[Now has the Brittens snatch'd a short repast...]","[The lofty pillars of the sky...]","[Peace worthy shade!

The collection\n         spans the years 1735 to 1942, but the bulk of the papers date\n         from ca. 1850 to 1890. Most of the papers relate to members of\n         the above families who lived in uffolk, with only a few papers\n         pertaining to the branch of the Prentis familywhich resided in \n          Williamsburg.","The personal papers in this collection consist of scattered\n         correspondence, financial papers, miscellaneous manuscripts,\n         memorabilia and printed material. The correspondence dates\n         from 1823 to 1939, and for the most part is made up of\n         invitations and calling cards received by members of the above\n         families.","The financial papers date from 1735 to 1887, and consist of\n         18th century tax receipts from land owned in Virginia, probably by the \n          Prentis family in Williamsburg; bills of exchange, bonds,\n         and bills of lading belonging to William Prentis, John Prentis, and Robert Prentis; and miscellaneous\n         financial papers of various members of the above families.","The miscellaneous manuscripts date from 1771 to 1888, with much of the material undated. These papers consist of poems,\n         quotations from books, songs, memoranda of children's birth\n         dates, lists of subscribers, compositions, gardening notes,\n         recipes, and other assorted papers. Of particular interest in\n         this section is the photocopy of a Civil War diary kept by \n          Joseph Prentis Webb, ca. 1862 to 1863.","The memorabilia is for the most part undated and\n         unidentified, and consists of such items as paper dolls,\n         silhouettes, and locks of hair. There is also a photograph of \n          \"Rose Hill,\" an early home of the \n          Allen family in \n          Suffolk. The printed material dates from\n         1774 to 1942, and is comprised of newspaper clippings,\n         programs, and advertisements. Of particular interest for local\n         history relating to this collection is a Sketch Book of \n          Suffolk, Virginia, dating from ca.\n         1886.","The professional papers of \n          Robert Riddick Prentis comprise the next\n         main series in this collection. These papers, mainly\n         correspondence and some related legal material, concern four\n         cases of estate settlement and other fiscal litigation handled\n         by Withers and Prentis, the Suffolk law firm in which \n          Robert R. Prentis was a partner. The\n         series dates from 1812 to 1887. \n          Robert R. Prentis (born 11 April 1818) was\n         the son of Joseph Prentis, Jr., who served as clerk\n         of the Circuit and County Courts for Suffolk, and surveyor and inspector of\n         the port of Suffolk, and Susan Caroline Riddick. \n          Robert R. Prentis served as mayor of Suffolk from 1883 to 1885, and practiced\n         as an attorney in the courts of Nansemond, Isle of Wight and \n          Southhampton counties, and the \n          United States District Court at \n          Norfolk.","A major portion of this collection consists of the\n         financial papers of Joseph Prentis Webb. Webb was the son of \n          Robert S. Webb and Margaret Susan (Prentis) Webb, the sister\n         of \n          Robert R. Prentis. He was born in \n          Suffolk on 30 October 1843, and served in\n         the \n          13th Virginia Cavalry with the \n          Army of Northern Virginia from 1862 to\n         1865, during which time he wrote the diary referred to\n         earlier. Immediately after the war he started a drug company\n         in Suffolk, and later expanded the business\n         to include paints, building supplies, books, stationery, and a\n         variety of other goods. He served as treasurer of the board of\n         vestry of  St. Paul's Episcopal Church in \n          Suffolk, a vice-president of the \n          Suffolk Y.M.C.A., and was treasurer of\n         the \n          Suffolk Street Railway Company (formerly\n         the \n          Suffolk Street Car Company).","Webb's papers, dating from 1838 to 1892, are financial and\n         legal records from his various business and service\n         activities. In addition to receipts, accounts, and\n         correspondence relating to his building supply contracts and\n         store, there are deeds, bonds, and other legal records of\n         property ownership, tax and license receipts, pension records,\n         receipts of dues paid the Knights of Huron, and records from Webb's other activities as listed above. Webb's papers extend to\n         within two months of his death on 27 December 1892.","In 1885, a fire swept through  Suffolk, destroying not only \n          Joseph P. Webb's store but the business of Darden and Eley. This dry goods and\n         hardware store was established in 1866 by Robert Seth Eley and Algernon Sidney Darden, president of the \n          Commercial Bank of Suffolk, whose daughter, \n          Annie Jordan Darden, in 1881 had married \n          Joseph Prentis Webb. Following the fire\n         the two businesses cooperated in building a new store on\n         Washington Square in  Suffolk to house them both. \n          Robert S. Eleydied in 1886, and the\n         business was carried on by \n          A. S. Darden who continued to build and\n         expand it in cooperation with Webb, and to divide the profits\n         from the business with \n          Eliza P. Eley (possibly the former \n          Eliza Jaekson (Prentis) Vickery), the\n         widow of \n          R. S. Eley.","The records of the business of \n          Darden and Eley form the last major series\n         in this collection. These papers, which date from 1867 to\n         1905, consist mainly of deeds, receipts, and accounts, and\n         chronicle the changes the business went through as a result of\n         the events related above. They include: store receipts of \n          Darden and Eley; deeds made by Darden,\n         Webb, Eley, and others; tax receipts; accounts from the\n         settlement of the estate of \n          R. S. Eley; and receipts and invoices\n         from the building of the new store.","The remainder of the collection is comprised of ledgers,\n         oversize materials, and Bible records. The ledgers and\n         oversize items are listed at the end of this guide. The\n         ledgers date from 1733 to 1907, and include court memoranda\n         books of \n          Joseph Prentis and an 18th century \n          Robert Prentis, various financial ledgers\n         and cashbooks, commonplace books, a diary of \n          Joseph P.

Papers formerly inserted in\n         the ledgers and photocopies made of fragile material in the\n         ledgers can also be found in this section. The oversize\n         material consists of six scattered items pulled from various\n         parts of the collection. The Bible records are electrostatic\n         copies of pages in Bibles of the \n          Allen family, the Darden- Allen- Webb-Prentis family, and the \n          Prentis-Riddick-Webb family, and they are filed in the Bible\n         transcripts tray in the Reading Room.

Their granddaughter, Elizabeth Ann Teackle (daughter of their son Littleton Dennis Teackle (1777-1848) and his wife Elizabeth \"Eliza\" Upshur (1783-1835), married Aaron Balderston Quinby in 1839.","Both families came to Virginia and Maryland from Great Britain around the same time, were owners of enslaved people and were probably related through cousins.  Genealogy: Arthur Upshur (1624-1709) was born in Essex County, England. He immigrated to the Eastern Shore of Virginia about 1637. His descendants for the next five generations remained on the Eastern Shore.  The Teackle family goes back to Thomas Teackle (1624-1695) who came to the Eastern Shore from Gloucester, England.
