He grew up in Claysville, Pennsylvania. His parents provided roots in the Scotch-Irish heritage from his mother and Russian roots from his father, Carl Wesley Archer. After graduating from McGuffey High School in 1967, Archer attended West Virginia University where he graduated in 1972 with a Bachelor's degree in English. He also completed twelve hours of graduate work in English with WVU.","Although Archer's first writing job in southern West Virginia was with the Twin-State Marketer (Bluefield, VA) beginning in 1986, he contributed sporadically to the Bluefield Daily Telegraph beginning in 1983. In 1992, he joined the staff of the Bluefield paper and continued his work there as a reporter and senior editor until 2016. During this time, he was also a stringer from the State Journal, a West Virginia business publication, 1999-2003. Archer covered the news extensively not just in Bluefield but in adjacent counties in West Virginia and northwestern Virginia.","Due to Archer's important coverage of news events in Southern West Virginia and service to his community, he has received a number of awards:","1994\nFor his substantial contribution to news coverage, he received the Award of Excellence for Outstanding Editorial Achievement from Thomson Newspapers\n2000\nFor his coverage of the collapse of the First National Bank of Keystone Bank, he received the Outstanding Journalist Award from the West Virginia Trial Lawyers Association\n2003\nThe Mercer County National Association for the Advancement of Colored People awarded him the Merit Award\nThe Veterans of Foreign Wars, Post 9696, awarded him two Distinguished Service Awards\n2007\nArcher was dubbed \"the consummate community newspaper reporter\" by a former publisher of the Bluefield Daily Telegraph when he was named a West Virginia History Hero by the Mercer County Historical Society\n2013\nHe received two awards the Shott Excellence in Media Award and the National Coal Heritage Area Research Documentation Award\n2015\nThe local American Legion awarded him the Distinguished Citizenship Award","Archer authored a number of local history books and approximately 125 magazine articles in addition to his newspaper reporting. The books, in the \"Images of America\" series from Arcadia Publishing, document the history of the cities of Bluefield, Princeton, and Welch. His county histories include Mercer County (WV), McDowell County (WV), and Bland County (VA). He has written numerous articles for Wonderful West Virginia, and also has contributed to Goldenseal, The West Virginia Encyclopedia, Appalachian Heritage, Coal People, and Virginia Cavalcade.","Archer's interest in the varied music of southern West Virginia is reflected in some of his writing, but he also wrote poetry and songs. He recorded and performed original music compositions with Karl Miller for more than thirty years. He wrote the lyrics for the musical \"Bramwell--100\" about the 100th anniversary of the town of Bramwell.","After retiring as a writer, Archere extended his service to the community as a Mercer County Commissioner for the 2017-2022 term.

In addition to his reporting, Archer wrote a number of local history books as well as articles for publications other than the Bluefield paper.","The largest part of the collection, six boxes of records and three of artifacts, focuses on the historic collapse in 1999 of the First National Bank of Keystone in McDowell County; subsequent criminal and civil court cases; and Congressional oversight hearings.  Another significant part of the collection, two boxes of records and three of artifacts, focuses on John Forbes Nash Jr., 1994 recipient of the Nobel Prize in Economics and a Bluefield native.  The files document Nash's time in Bluefield and at Bluefield State College, his family, and his career.  The Nash files also include reporting and research materials about the book and film, A Beautiful Mind, about Nash's life and work.","Archer researched all aspects of coal country life.

Of particular note are those by Melvin \"Mel\" Grubb, a long time photographer for The Bluefield Daily Telegraph. The collection also includes a number of other media formats such as films and recordings.","And finally, throughout the collection there are a large number of Archer's newspaper columns which demonstrate the process of writing newspaper stories beginning with interview notes and ending with the final articles.  Also included are his writings in other literary forms such as local histories, stories, poems, and songs. Some stories and a cookbook were written under the pseudonym Richard Lucas.","Twelve compact discs of performances by Archer and Miller are found in Box 28.  Particularly represented in the collection is Archer's work on the musical \"Bramwell--100\" about the 100th anniversary of the town of Bramwell. A compact disc of the music and narration is one of those in Box 28. Digital files of his compositions include 131 files consisting of the compact disk recordings as well as the text of an essay reflecting on music; and songs, written and performed by Archer and Karl Miller.","In addition to the compact discs, Box 28 also contains handwritten and typed Archer compositions and includes love songs to his wife Evonda.","The collection consists of the following series:","Series 1.

The papers apparently passed to Andrew Skene after Craig's death. Skene (1784-1835) also worked as an advocate and later briefly served as Scotland's solicitor general. He greatly expanded Craig's original collection. When Skene died in 1835 the papers were sold in an estate sale, after which the Library of the Society of Advocates in Aberdeen, Scotland, came into possession of them. The library sold them, along with many of their manuscript collections, in the 1980s. The UVA Law Library purchased the records in 1986. Many of these documents include Skene's handwritten, and often lengthy, annotations on the content and judgments for individual cases. Skene likely enlarged his own library by acquiring Session papers from other personal collections. The earliest documents in UVA's collection predate Skene's legal career and include the annotations of other Scottish jurists, such as William Craig, lawyer and judge from 1768 to 1812.","Arthur J.
