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.

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 family and \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 Parish in Essex County.\n         Included are a letter, December 17, 1716, from \n          Alexander Spotswood to the vestry of the\n         parish re their decision to suspend \n          Lewis Latane from 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.
