In his early plans, Jefferson recommended the creation of a School of Anatomy and Medicine with a rigorous academic model, where students could attain medical education in nine months, a term that was twice as long as many schools at the time. Students would read, attend lectures, and watch demonstrations, but there would be few opportunities for them to work firsthand with patients, because there was no teaching hospital in Charlottesville. When the University opened its doors to students in 1825, Dr. Robley Dunglison taught all of the classes offered by the School of Anatomy and Medicine. Beginning in 1827, medical classes were held in the Anatomical Theatre, a building designed by Jefferson (though completed after his death) to accomodate a space for anatomical dissections. The study of anatomy was an important piece of early medical education; however, there was no systematic way for medical schools to obtain bodies for dissection prior to the Virginia Anatomical Act of 1884, and so cadavers were frequently procured through illegal and unethical means. Often this involved body snatching from local graves, most commonly those found in cemeteries of Virginia's slave, free black, and poor white populations.","Dunglison remained at UVA until 1833, and during that time he persuaded the UVA Board of Visitors to hire additional faculty for his medical department. In the mid-19th century, the UVA medical school was known for providing a good theoretical education. Academic activities were largely stagnant during the years of the Civil War, when Professor of Anatomy and Surgery James L. Cabell oversaw a Confederate military hospital erected in part on the Grounds of UVA, and later when Charlottesville was occupied by Union troops at the end of the war. In the decades after the Civil War, a period of biomedical revolution began to redefine the practice of medicine. In response, UVA initiated educational reforms to its medical curriculum, gradually lengthening the degree program to four years by the end of the 19th century, and introducing coursework in new fields like bacteriology and histology. In order to create increasingly important clinical opportunities for students, UVA committed to building its own facilities, including a dispensary for out-patient care in 1892 and finally a hospital, which opened in 1901. While science and medicine had entered a period of dramatic revolution, social systems were less inclined to evolve, and access to medical education at UVA remained restricted for many members of the population.","In the early 20th century, the University of Virginia was transforming into a modern university, dedicated to both education and research. At the center of this change were UVA's health sciences programs. The University invested heavily in the School of Medicine, increasing the number of faculty in order to support emerging medical specialties and a new research mission. This period was also marked by the culmination of a fierce debate over the dual existence of state-supported medical programs in both Charlottesville and Richmond, VA. In 1921, a state-appointed commission recommended the relocation of the UVA School of Medicine to Richmond. UVA mobilized alumni and recruited political allies in order to wage a fierce campaign for the preservation of its medical program. They were ultimately successful, with the General Assembly deciding in favor of UVA. The period that followed was marked by continued expansion to the University's academic medical center, including greater specialization across the field of medicine and an increase of students, faculty, and associated personnel throughout the health sciences programs.","Also of note during this time, in 1920 a resolution of the UVA Board of Visitors agreed to admit women into graduate and professional degree programs at UVA. The first woman to graduate from the School of Medicine, Sarah Ruth Dean, a transfer student, did so in 1922. In 1924, Lila Morse Bonner became the second woman to graduate from the School of Medicine and the first to attend all four years of medical school at UVA.","By the 1940s, public confidence in the health professions was strong among much of the U.S. public. After World War II, there was broad support for wider investment in academic medical centers. At UVA, federal grants were used to build new facilities, including the construction of a multi-story hospital tower. However, also at this time, access to education, employment opportunities, and health care at UVA continued to be unequal. With the rise of the Civil Rights movement, a combination of factors including, community activism, federal legislation, and court rulings compelled the University to start removing barriers to access. In 1953, Edward Bertram Nash and Edward Thomas Wood became the first two African Americans to be admitted to the UVA School of Medicine. Both went on to graduate in 1957.","Throughout the second half of the 20th century, the UVA health system continued to expand. A new medical education building was dedicated in 1972. (Originally named for Harvey E. Jordan, a former Dean of the School of Medicine and known proponent of eugenics; the building was renamed in honor of Dr. Vivian W. Pinn in 2016). This era of expansion also saw the opening of a nursing education building, health sciences library, primary care center, and finally, in 1989, a massive new hospital building. The 1980s and 1990s also saw efforts at the School of Medicine to increase access to the health professions among under-represented groups, including women and people of color.","Rapid developments in the health sciences continued to demand new facilities for research and education. The Claude Moore Medical Education Building opened as the new central location for the School of Medicine in 2010. Also in 2010, the School of Medicine launched a four college system, designed to preserve close student-faculty relationships and maintain a high-quality student experience while accommodating increased medical class size and a revised curriculum. Ten years later, the School of Medicine embraced further expansions with the launch of its Inova Campus in Northern Virginia, which provides clerkship opportunities for some upperclass medical students. The first cohort to spend their third and fourth years of medical school at the Northern Virginia campus arrived there in 2021.","*Note about naming conventions: Briefly known as the \"School of Anatomy and Medicine\" (1825-1827), the name \"School of Medicine\" was adopted by the Board of Visitors in July 1827. However, shortly later the name \"Department of Medicine\" came to be used (though some records still refer to the institution as \"School of Medicine\"). By the 1950s, the preferred name was again \"School of Medicine\".","Deans of the UVA School of Medicine","Richard Henry Whitehead, MD, 1905-1916\nTheodore Hough, PhD, [Acting Dean: 1916-1917], 1917-1924\nJames Caroll Flippin, MD, [Acting Dean: 1925-1927] 1927-1939\nHarvey Ernest Jordan, PhD, 1939-1949\nVernon W.

In his early plans, Jefferson recommended the creation of a School of Anatomy and Medicine with a rigorous academic model, where students could attain medical education in nine months, a term that was twice as long as many schools at the time. Students would read, attend lectures, and watch demonstrations, but there would be few opportunities for them to work firsthand with patients, because there was no teaching hospital in Charlottesville. When the University opened its doors to students in 1825, Dr. Robley Dunglison taught all of the classes offered by the School of Anatomy and Medicine. Beginning in 1827, medical classes were held in the Anatomical Theatre, a building designed by Jefferson (though completed after his death) to accomodate a space for anatomical dissections. The study of anatomy was an important piece of early medical education; however, there was no systematic way for medical schools to obtain bodies for dissection prior to the Virginia Anatomical Act of 1884, and so cadavers were frequently procured through illegal and unethical means. Often this involved body snatching from local graves, most commonly those found in cemeteries of Virginia's slave, free black, and poor white populations. \n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cbr\u003e","\u003cp\u003e\nDunglison remained at UVA until 1833, and during that time he persuaded the UVA Board of Visitors to hire additional faculty for his medical department. In the mid-19th century, the UVA medical school was known for providing a good theoretical education. Academic activities were largely stagnant during the years of the Civil War, when Professor of Anatomy and Surgery James L. Cabell oversaw a Confederate military hospital erected in part on the Grounds of UVA, and later when Charlottesville was occupied by Union troops at the end of the war. In the decades after the Civil War, a period of biomedical revolution began to redefine the practice of medicine. In response, UVA initiated educational reforms to its medical curriculum, gradually lengthening the degree program to four years by the end of the 19th century, and introducing coursework in new fields like bacteriology and histology. In order to create increasingly important clinical opportunities for students, UVA committed to building its own facilities, including a dispensary for out-patient care in 1892 and finally a hospital, which opened in 1901. While science and medicine had entered a period of dramatic revolution, social systems were less inclined to evolve, and access to medical education at UVA remained restricted for many members of the population.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n","\u003cbr\u003e","\u003cp\u003e\nIn the early 20th century, the University of Virginia was transforming into a modern university, dedicated to both education and research.

This period was also marked by the culmination of a fierce debate over the dual existence of state-supported medical programs in both Charlottesville and Richmond, VA.

UVA mobilized alumni and recruited political allies in order to wage a fierce campaign for the preservation of its medical program.

Faris was born in St. Clairsville, Ohio on August 1, 1870. His family moved to Wheeling, West Virginia two years later. Faris was educated in Wheeling public schools. He worked as a draftsman for Edgar Wells in the Wheeling firm of Klieves, Kraft and Company (a Wheeling architectural and building contractor company), before he left the city to work for architects in Chicago and New York City. Faris returned to Wheeling in 1892, where he entered into a partnership with Joseph Leiner forming Leiner \u0026 Faris. In 1894, Faris left that partnership and formed the partnership of Franzheim, Giesey \u0026 Faris, with Edward B. Franzheim and Millard Fillmore Geisey. Franzheim left the partnership in 1899, and the pair continued as Geisey \u0026 Faris.  In 1911, he entered private practice as F.F. Faris Architect. Faris died June 27, 1927, at 56, from complication resulting from strep throat and is buried in Wheeling's Greenwood Cemetery. Faris married Nellie Egerter Faris (1876-1973) in 1897. The couple had no children. Following his death, Faris' nephews Frederic P. Faris and Philip V. Faris took over the practice.","Frederic P. Faris","Frederic P. Faris was born February 14, 1901, in Wheeling, West Virginia. He was likely educated in Wheeling public schools. He attended Cornell University, graduating with a BA in Architecture in 1923 and an MA in Architecture in 1924.  Faris worked along with his older brother Philip Faris (1899-1974), an engineer, in his uncle's practice prior to his death. After Frederick Faris' death, the practice was styled as Faris Associates. In the early 1950s, the firm was known as Frederic Faris AIA. Faris died July 14, 1964. He is buried in Wheeling's Greenwood Cemetery. Faris married Mary Elizabeth Steinbicker in 1947. The couple had no children. The practice passed to Tracy R. Stephens.","Tracy Ralston Stephens","Tracy R. Stephens was born in Cameron, West Virginia on November 14, 1901, but lived in Western Pennsylvania prior to the family relocating to Morgantown in the late 1910s. Stephens initially attended West Virginia University, but since WVU has no architecture program he transferred to Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh, where he completed his architecture studies. He graduated in 1930. Stephen had worked for the Clarksburg firm of Edward J. Wood \u0026 Son Licensed Architects while at Carnegie Tech. Following his graduation, he became a member of the practice where he worked from the early 1930s until World War II. He left the practice during the war to work at Fairchild Aircraft in Hagerstown, Maryland. After the war, he returned to Clarksburg and started his own practice, Tracy R. Stephens Architect in 1947. In the early 1960s, Frederic Faris persuaded Stephens to join his practice to help with an abundance of commissions with West Liberty State College (now West Liberty University) in West Liberty, West Virginia, especially the Hall of Fine Arts.  Upon the death of Frederic Faris, the architectural firm's name changed again, this time back to Faris Associates, and was comprised of Tracy Stephens, Philip Faris, and Merle Peterson (Peterson later became the West Virginia University Campus Architect). After Philip Faris retired in 1972, the firm became Tracy R. Stephens, AIA, Architect. Stephens died in Cumming, Georgia on November 4, 2003, and is buried in Cedar Grove Cemetery, Mount Morris, Pennsylvania. Stephens never married.","The A\u0026M 3330 Faris, Faris, and Stephens, Architects, Records card index binder (\"A\u0026M 3330 FARIS DRAWINGS--INDEX\") is a photocopied card index that includes an inventory of the architectural drawings and related documents and specifications regarding the architectural projects of Frederick Faris, Frederic Faris, and Tracy Stephens. This inventory dates to the late 1960s with subsequent updates. This binder is housed with the control folders.\nThe A\u0026M 3330 card index provides an alphabetic listing of Faris, Faris, and Stephens' individual architectural design projects. The list includes information on the project name; type of project and geographical location; type of drawings, such as tracings and prints; and correspondence and specifications, with occasional project dates and particular individuals' involvement. Also, there are notes related to the design projects, such as client and property names and subsequent property ownership. However, some projects' index cards simply list the project/building name and the legacy storage location of the related materials. This information may be useful to a researcher who is looking for details of a particular design project or as a compendium of design project materials. Please note that the locational information for drawings, files, and drawer numbers enumerated in the index is now obsolete, and the photocopied card index itself is at least partially obsolete due to the later creation of a spreadsheet inventory for the collection.","The Faris, Faris, and Stephens, Architects, Records consists of the records of approximately 300 to 350 architectural design projects dating from circa 1890 through 1990.  This collection represents the architectural design work of three prominent West Virginia architects: Frederick F. Faris (1870-1927), Federic P. Faris (1901-1964), and Tracy R. Stephens (1901-2003). \nFaris, Faris, and Stephens were collectively responsible for a broad range of architectural designs including private residences, banks, churches, schools, public housing, and recreational and industrial buildings. Additionally, these architects also designed furnishings, hardware, and signage for several of these design projects. Geographically, this collection is centered on Wheeling, but also includes projects from West Virginia's Northern Panhandle and regionally including Ohio and Pennsylvania.Series 1 consists of architectural drawings, including tracings (pencil drawings) and ink on vellum drawings of plan, elevation, and sections; structural, masonry, hardware, and furnishings detail drawings; structural steel drawings; construction drawings; and preliminary design sketches. There are also white prints and blueprints, often used for field measurements, as well as bound presentation set drawings for public and client perusal and approval. Additionally, there are sub-contractors' blueprints, mostly from local Wheeling ornamental and structural iron works. Lastly, there are architectural renderings for a number of projects, most in color. This series also includes original measured drawings prepared by other Wheeling architects including Charles W. Bates and Edward B. Franzheim. How these drawings became part of this collection is unclear, but they were probably loaned to Frederick F. Faris for use in remodeling projects and never returned.Series 2 includes textual records, such as correspondence, reports, price quotations for material and other services, specifications, contracts, prints/drawings, and other documents regarding architectural projects. Rough contents list is available upon request.Series 3. Addendum of 2015 October 12 includes materials regarding the accomplishments of architect Tracy Stephens and commemoration of his work in Wheeling, WV. Featured projects include Alterations to the West Virginia Independence Hall and the Paul M. McKay Residence, with drawings, notes, and specifications included. There are also project-specific financial records spanning several years of Stephens's career; newspaper clippings featuring articles about his work, brief correspondence from the American Institute of Architects about historical research being conducted on Stephens, and materials from Frederic Faris's education at Cornell University.Series 4 includes architectural books collected by Faris, Faris, and Stephens throughout their careers. There are guidebooks for designing various kinds of buildings, like schools, hospitals, and residences; biographies of prominent architects; and task-specific manuals for projects like floodproofing and modernizing buildings. The majority of the books were published from 1921-1991, so they demonstrate some of the ways that best practices and design choices evolved throughout the 20th century. Additionally, these books provide insight into the influences behind Faris, Faris, and Stephens's work. A list of book titles is provided in each box's scope and contents note.","Permission to publish or reproduce is required from the copyright holder.

Faris was born in St. Clairsville, Ohio on August 1, 1870. His family moved to Wheeling, West Virginia two years later. Faris was educated in Wheeling public schools. He worked as a draftsman for Edgar Wells in the Wheeling firm of Klieves, Kraft and Company (a Wheeling architectural and building contractor company), before he left the city to work for architects in Chicago and New York City. Faris returned to Wheeling in 1892, where he entered into a partnership with Joseph Leiner forming Leiner \u0026 Faris. In 1894, Faris left that partnership and formed the partnership of Franzheim, Giesey \u0026 Faris, with Edward B. Franzheim and Millard Fillmore Geisey. Franzheim left the partnership in 1899, and the pair continued as Geisey \u0026 Faris.  In 1911, he entered private practice as F.F. Faris Architect. Faris died June 27, 1927, at 56, from complication resulting from strep throat and is buried in Wheeling's Greenwood Cemetery. Faris married Nellie Egerter Faris (1876-1973) in 1897. The couple had no children. Following his death, Faris' nephews Frederic P. Faris and Philip V. Faris took over the practice.","Frederic P. Faris","Frederic P. Faris was born February 14, 1901, in Wheeling, West Virginia. He was likely educated in Wheeling public schools. He attended Cornell University, graduating with a BA in Architecture in 1923 and an MA in Architecture in 1924.  Faris worked along with his older brother Philip Faris (1899-1974), an engineer, in his uncle's practice prior to his death. After Frederick Faris' death, the practice was styled as Faris Associates. In the early 1950s, the firm was known as Frederic Faris AIA. Faris died July 14, 1964. He is buried in Wheeling's Greenwood Cemetery. Faris married Mary Elizabeth Steinbicker in 1947. The couple had no children. The practice passed to Tracy R. Stephens.","Tracy Ralston Stephens","Tracy R. Stephens was born in Cameron, West Virginia on November 14, 1901, but lived in Western Pennsylvania prior to the family relocating to Morgantown in the late 1910s. Stephens initially attended West Virginia University, but since WVU has no architecture program he transferred to Carnegie Institute of Technology in Pittsburgh, where he completed his architecture studies. He graduated in 1930. Stephen had worked for the Clarksburg firm of Edward J. Wood \u0026 Son Licensed Architects while at Carnegie Tech. Following his graduation, he became a member of the practice where he worked from the early 1930s until World War II. He left the practice during the war to work at Fairchild Aircraft in Hagerstown, Maryland. After the war, he returned to Clarksburg and started his own practice, Tracy R. Stephens Architect in 1947.

Harris (1823-1899) was perhaps one of the most prominent citizens of Rockingham County throughout the nineteenth century. The son of Nathan and Ann Harris, he was commonwealth's attorney for Rockingham County from 1852 to 1859, and in 1856 served as a Presidential elector for James Buchanan. Thereafter, he served in the United States Congress from 1859 until the outbreak of the Civil War. Despite his strong Unionist sentiments and his continual efforts to keep Virginia in the Union, Harris remained loyal to Virginia when she seceded in May 1861. During the war he served two terms in the Virginia General Assembly. Following the war John T. Harris was judge of the 12th judicial circuit, which included Rockingham County. In 1870 he was again elected to Congress and was continuously re-elected until 1880, after which he resumed his law practice in Harrisonburg. John T. Harris returned to politics in 1889 as a rival of P.W. McKinney for the Democratic nomination for the governorship. Later he was appointed by Governor McKinney as one of the representatives for Virginia to the World's Columbian Exposition in 1892. He died in Harrisonburg, October 14, 1899.","In addition to the Harris family letters, there are a large number of miscellaneous letters (3 Hollinger boxes) of the related Peyton Randolph Family. The Randolph family papers came into the Harris family when John T. Harris's son, John T. Harris Jr., married Peyton Randolph's daughter, Mary Elizabeth Randolph. Born in Washington, D.C. in 1833, Peyton was the son of James Innes Randolph, a congressional clerk, and Susan Armistead Randolph. However, despite the numerous letters to him, little is known about Peyton Randolph. Prior to the Civil War he attended Columbian College (now George Washington University) and was an engineer on numerous railroad projects in Virginia, Indiana, and Alabama through the 1850's. He enlisted in the army in Mobile, Alabama, at the outbreak of war and served as an engineer in Pickett's division, rising to the rank of major by 1865. Thereafter, even less is known of his life. He married Mary Fisher following the war, returned to the engineering profession, and died November 28, 1888.","In order to streamline the process of applying collection numbers, Special Collections staff completed a large-scale renumbering campaign in the spring of 2017. This collection was previously cataloged as SC 2025.","Harter, Dale F.

Harris, the bulk of the collection is comprised of correspondence addressed to John T. Harris and his family, and between Peyton Randolph and his family. A small number of James Clarkson papers are also present. The collection is arranged in four series: Correspondence, Personal and Family Papers, Political Papers, and Miscellaneous.","Series 1: Correspondence, 1831-1937, is arranged chronologically in four subseries:","Subseries 1.1: Addressed to John T. Harris, 1841-1899, consists of correspondence addressed to Harris from his constituents requesting personal favors. Letters from 1860 to 1861 primarily address the issue of Virginia seceding from the Union. Most of the letters express pro-Unionist feelings and encourage Harris to work for a compromise in Congress to avert violent conflict. The contents of these letters suggest that Harris worked with and may have been a close friend of Stephen A. Douglas. The 24 May 1871 letter addressed to Harris from William Nelson Pendelton, written on behalf of Henry Clay White of Rockbridge County requesting appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point is property of Special Collections at James Madison University, and does not form part of the original collection on deposit. It is not available on microfilm.","Subseries 1.2: Harris Family, 1831-1937, consists chiefly of letters among various members of the Harris family; content includes descriptions of family life. Also included among this subseries are several letters to John T. Harris, Jr., from Presidents Woodrow Wilson and Theodore Roosevelt.","Subseries 1.3: Addressed to Peyton Randolph, 1846-1884, consists of letters from several college friends of Randolph and from Randolph's immediate family. Notable among these are letters from college friend Henry Force. Force was the son of historian Peter Force and acted as surveyor on the Border Commission dispatched to study the newly acquired lands in present-day New Mexico and Arizona. In a series of letters to Peyton from 1848 to 1853, Force describes his encounters with Mexican soldiers and Apache Indians, as well as his duties on the trek from New Orleans to San Diego. Transcriptions are available for eight of Force's letters, 1848-1851.","Subseries 1.4: Randolph Family, 1837-1928, includes letters addressed to Peyton Randolph and his sisters, Mollie Randolph, Nannie Randolph and Sue Randolph from their mother, Susan Armistead Randolph, correspondence between the Randolph siblings, as well as a few miscellaneous items of Peyton Randolph's including a book of psalms which he carried during the Civil War. The letters from Susan Armistead Randolph form the bulk of this subseries. In her weekly four-page letters, Susan Randolph describes life in Washington, D.C. during the 1850's, including the inauguration of Franklin Pierce and the funeral of Henry Clay. Susan Randolph was acutely aware of the political climate of her era and took particular interest in the Know-Nothing party in the 1850's. In several letters she outlines the platform of the Know-Nothings and even urges Peyton to join the party. However, despite her vivid political commentaries and her proximity to the arena of the conflict, she does not mention the issue of slavery. In addition to her political and social sketches, she provides detailed accounts of family life, including detailed descriptions of the deaths of various family members. Her letters from Richmond during the war describe the changes in life in that city through the course of the war and include detailed examples of the rampant inflation of prices on common goods such as bacon and flour. Of particular interest are Mrs. Randolph's inquiries concerning her first cousin, General Lewis Armistead, who was said to be the first Confederate soldier to cross into Union lines during Pickett's Charge at the battle of Gettysburg. See Randolph Harris Moulton's Some Randolphs Around Civil War Times for transcriptions of some of the Peyton Randolph letters.","Series 2: Personal and Family Papers, 1843-1936, is arranged topically and contains a variety of materials. General papers include John T. Harris' law license, an 1861 will, and his post-Civil War oath of allegiance to the United States. [A certificate in which President Benjamin Harrison appoints Harris as Virginia's representative at the World's Columbian Exposition of 1892 is located in the oversize miscellaneous file.] Also in this series is a photocopy of John T. Harris' handwritten 1898 autobiography, which gives many particulars of his life, as well as a photocopy of his son John T. Harris Jr.'s typed 1936 autobiography, which includes characterizations of the lawyers with which the younger Harris was acquainted. Genealogical notes and charts as well as newspaper clippings pertaining to the Harris family are also present.","Series 3: Political Papers, 1856-1896, consists primarily of copies of John T. Harris' Congressional speeches as well as several made by other members of Congress. The most notable of these is the resignation speech of Preston B. \"Bully\" Brookes, who was censured by Congress for caning Charles Sumner in 1856. In addition, there are election returns from elections in which Harris was a candidate. These include reports from Rockingham County and localities throughout the Shenandoah Valley. There is also a folder containing political ephemera such as political broadsides, handbills, and selected pages from newspapers regarding local and national elections","Series 4: Miscellaneous, 1771-1933, contains a variety of materials, including general miscellany and receipts, Civil War documents, indentures, James Clarkson Papers, photographs and undated material. Among the Civil War documents are requests for exemption from military service, requisition receipts from Confederate military authorities, contracts between individuals and their military substitutes, and requests to John  T. Harris for release from Union prisoner-of-war camps. The James Clarkson Papers primarily are comprised of legal documents from Albemarle County. These documents were preserved by John T. Harris's wife, Virginia Harris, who was a descendant of James Clarkson. Among the photographs is a print of Peyton Randolph and his four brothers, a photographed portrait of James Innes, and photographs of John T. Harris' writing desk, a young Isabelle Heard, and an unidentified young girl.  Undated material consists of any items in this series that may be undated, including print material, notes, memoranda, receipts, various lists, writings, and calling cards. In addition, also includes a certificate signed by Benjamin Harrison appointing him as Virginia's representative at the World's Columbian Exposition of 1892; a land grant to Joel S. Graves signed by Governor Thomas M. Randolph; and a sheet dated March 11, 1861, signed by members of the provisional government of secession (Civil War) from South Carolina, Georgia, Florida and Alabama.","The copyright interests in this collection have not been transferred to the James Madison University Special Collection Library.

Harris, 1841-1899, consists of correspondence addressed to Harris from his constituents requesting personal favors. Letters from 1860 to 1861 primarily address the issue of Virginia seceding from the Union. Most of the letters express pro-Unionist feelings and encourage Harris to work for a compromise in Congress to avert violent conflict. The contents of these letters suggest that Harris worked with and may have been a close friend of Stephen A. Douglas. The 24 May 1871 letter addressed to Harris from William Nelson Pendelton, written on behalf of Henry Clay White of Rockbridge County requesting appointment to the U.S. Military Academy at West Point is property of Special Collections at James Madison University, and does not form part of the original collection on deposit.

Notable among these are letters from college friend Henry Force. Force was the son of historian Peter Force and acted as surveyor on the Border Commission dispatched to study the newly acquired lands in present-day New Mexico and Arizona. In a series of letters to Peyton from 1848 to 1853, Force describes his encounters with Mexican soldiers and Apache Indians, as well as his duties on the trek from New Orleans to San Diego. Transcriptions are available for eight of Force's letters, 1848-1851.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eSubseries 1.4: Randolph Family, 1837-1928, includes letters addressed to Peyton Randolph and his sisters, Mollie Randolph, Nannie Randolph and Sue Randolph from their mother, Susan Armistead Randolph, correspondence between the Randolph siblings, as well as a few miscellaneous items of Peyton Randolph's including a book of psalms which he carried during the Civil War. The letters from Susan Armistead Randolph form the bulk of this subseries. In her weekly four-page letters, Susan Randolph describes life in Washington, D.C. during the 1850's, including the inauguration of Franklin Pierce and the funeral of Henry Clay. Susan Randolph was acutely aware of the political climate of her era and took particular interest in the Know-Nothing party in the 1850's. In several letters she outlines the platform of the Know-Nothings and even urges Peyton to join the party. However, despite her vivid political commentaries and her proximity to the arena of the conflict, she does not mention the issue of slavery. In addition to her political and social sketches, she provides detailed accounts of family life, including detailed descriptions of the deaths of various family members. Her letters from Richmond during the war describe the changes in life in that city through the course of the war and include detailed examples of the rampant inflation of prices on common goods such as bacon and flour. Of particular interest are Mrs. Randolph's inquiries concerning her first cousin, General Lewis Armistead, who was said to be the first Confederate soldier to cross into Union lines during Pickett's Charge at the battle of Gettysburg.

Harris' handwritten 1898 autobiography, which gives many particulars of his life, as well as a photocopy of his son John T.

The most notable of these is the resignation speech of Preston B. \"Bully\" Brookes, who was censured by Congress for caning Charles Sumner in 1856. In addition, there are election returns from elections in which Harris was a candidate. These include reports from Rockingham County and localities throughout the Shenandoah Valley.

Among the Civil War documents are requests for exemption from military service, requisition receipts from Confederate military authorities, contracts between individuals and their military substitutes, and requests to John  T. Harris for release from Union prisoner-of-war camps. The James Clarkson Papers primarily are comprised of legal documents from Albemarle County. These documents were preserved by John T. Harris's wife, Virginia Harris, who was a descendant of James Clarkson. Among the photographs is a print of Peyton Randolph and his four brothers, a photographed portrait of James Innes, and photographs of John T. Harris' writing desk, a young Isabelle Heard, and an unidentified young girl.  Undated material consists of any items in this series that may be undated, including print material, notes, memoranda, receipts, various lists, writings, and calling cards. In addition, also includes a certificate signed by Benjamin Harrison appointing him as Virginia's representative at the World's Columbian Exposition of 1892; a land grant to Joel S.

General Edward Watts was born on 7 April 1779, in Prince Edward, Virginia. He was the son of William Watts (1742-1797), and Mary Scott (1758-1836). He married Elizabeth Breckinridge, the daughter of James Breckinridge on 6 May 1811 and they had 10 children, including William Watts (1817-1877), Mary Scott Gamble (1814-1840), Ann Selden Watts Holcombe (1820-1888), Alice Watts Robertson (1832-1914), Emma Gilmer Watts Carr (1834-1872) and Letitia Watts Sorrell (1829-1900). Edward Watts purchased 400 acres of land from his father-in-law, James Breckinridge (called The Barrens) where he built his home \"Oaklands\" in 1817. General Edward Watts died in 1859 at age 59. The Watts and Breckinridge families were well-known families in southwest Virginia who enslaved people during the American Revolution and the American Civil War. They were admired by their peers as influential attorneys, politicians, and land owners who often opened their house to the community.","General Edward Watts was educated at Liberty Hall Academy (Washington \u0026 Lee), and Princeton. He was an officer in the War of 1812 and was the Commonwealth attorney for Roanoke County from 1839 to 1845. His son, William Watts (1817-1877) was a Colonel in the 28th Infantry of the Confederate Army (Roanoke Greys). He was educated in medicine and law at the University of Virginia.","After the war, he followed in his father's path as the Commonwealth attorney from 1845 to 1854. He was in the State Constitutional Convention (1850-1851), and was president of the Exchange Bank of Virginia. He also ran for governor in 1834 and 1842. He served in the legislature for one term in 1875. He married Mary Allen in 1850 and they had one living son, John Allen Watts (1855-1904). Mary Allen died following his birth in 1855. Colonel William Watts was also a farmer who enslaved over 100 people. He was said to have one enslaved person as his \"body servant\" through the war and gave him a home for life. Research of the collection has not yet provided his name.","John Allen Watts (1855-1904) nicknamed \"Squat\" was also a student at the University of Virginia and became an attorney. He married Gertrude Lee and they had a son named William. John Allen Watts sold Oaklands to a develpment company and it burned down in 1897. Descendants Jean Staples Showalter, English Showalter, and Katherine Watts donated this collection of their family's papers.","Sources:\n\"Roanoke and Western Virginia: Glimpses of the Pst: Oaklands\" http://showalter.blogspot.com/2010/12/oaklands.html","Barnes, Raymond. \"Confederates of Roanoke-V: General Edward Watts and Colonel William Watts Founded Clan\" Roanoke World News. 5 April 1961.

The Watts are related to many other Virginia families including James and Dolley Madison. This collection represents a great view into historical and social events of the eighteenth and nineteenth century in Virginia.","The papers of this family of landowners, farmers, politicians, and attorneys portray the rich southern antebellum life on the Oaklands plantation. Despite the told and true characteristics of the kindness of the Watts family, they were nineteenth century southern plantation owners who owned hundreds of enslaved persons. The letters and receipts in the collection include many first names and some last names. One enslaved person, Henry Langhorne, a lifetime attendant of Colonel William Watts was bequeathed $1,000 and a home for life.","Some letters mention the Watt's efforts to keep enslaved families from being separated by intervening in the sales of enslaved persons. There are many references to enslaved people among their households and farm, including descriptions of providing their clothing, housing, and nurturing them when they were sick, like family members. It is important to note that the collection also contains receipts for their purchase and loan.","The issue of enslavement is discussed in local meetings that Watts attended. There are also letters from former enslaved persons such as [Malinda] Langhorne and William Langhorne to Watts family members and photographs of enslaved persons, Aunt Sally and Aunt Phoebe standing together, and a photograph of Uncle Lou with the Watts children.","There is also correspondence about financial and legal matters as Colonel William Watts (1817-1877) and his father, General Edward Watts (1779-1859), were attorneys. Much of their correspondence relates to collecting debts, indentures, land surveys, receipts, and politics (Whig party, Commonwealth Attorney, Constitutional Convention, Virginia Delegates, and candidacy for Governor), and religion. The papers contain discussions about the popular faith of Presbyterians and Episcopalians). The University of Virginia, Washington \u0026 Lee, and William \u0026 Mary College are also mentioned.","The collection spans six generations of the Watts family including General Edward Watts and his wife Elizabeth Breckinridge (1794-1862), their son Colonel William Watts (1817-1877) and his wife Mary Jane Allen (1825-1855). Also included is their son, John Allen Watts and his wife Gertrude Lee.","Other related families include Madison, Breckenridge, Allen, Jackson, Watson, Morris, Gamble, Payne, Washington, Meigs, and Saunders. (MSS 653) Other related collections include MSS 4111-a,-b,-c,-d,-e,-f; MSS 38-33 Irvine, Saunders, Davis, and Watts families (William Watts daybooks 1768-1786); MSS 259; MSS 9715 Abram Penn Staples..(see related materials note)","The papers of Mary Scott Watts Gamble have been combined into this collection. These letters contain her accounts of attacks by Osceola and Seminole people in Florida. She mentions that Robert [Watts?] and Robert Gamble joined the local militia to remove the Seminoles from the swamps and send them out West.

Colonel William Watts was also a farmer who enslaved over 100 people. He was said to have one enslaved person as his \"body servant\" through the war and gave him a home for life. Research of the collection has not yet provided his name.","John Allen Watts (1855-1904) nicknamed \"Squat\" was also a student at the University of Virginia and became an attorney. He married Gertrude Lee and they had a son named William. John Allen Watts sold Oaklands to a develpment company and it burned down in 1897. Descendants Jean Staples Showalter, English Showalter, and Katherine Watts donated this collection of their family's papers.","Sources:\n\"Roanoke and Western Virginia: Glimpses of the Pst: Oaklands\" http://showalter.blogspot.com/2010/12/oaklands.html","Barnes, Raymond. \"Confederates of Roanoke-V: General Edward Watts and Colonel William Watts Founded Clan\" Roanoke World News. 5 April 1961.

Series and subseries have only been imposed where they accurately categorize the initial physical arrangement, allowing for the majority of Lewis's organization to remain intact. The imposed series — 1. Teaching, 2. Research and Scholarly Activity, and 3. Professional Service and Additional Career Materials — were chosen to represent the three main facets of university faculty work. Series 4 is comprised of an addendum received in 2024, and subseries have been imposed based on the existing series structure.","Many of the folder titles within this collection, including in the addendum, were created by Dr. Lewis and incorporated as-is during archival arrangement. He frequently utilized abbreviations and acronyms, especially in reference to academic institutions and professional organizations.","This collection includes a formerly separate WVRHC collection (A\u0026M 3634, Ronald Lewis, Historian, Research Notes Regarding Timber Industry in West Virginia). It has been added to this collection in its entirety at the donor's request, so that his body of work can be represented together.","A professor emeritus of history at West Virginia University, Lewis received his PhD in American History from the University of Akron in 1974.  He focused on regional studies, especially Appalachian history.  His first teaching opportunity was at the University of Delaware as an assistant professor from 1974 to 1985, where he focused primarily on the intersection of race and labor in the United States.  He was then hired in 1985 to teach West Virginian and Appalachian History at West Virginia University.  He earned emeritus status in 2008.  He has authored many books, earned several awards, and was a Fulbright-Hayes Commission Award Recipient.","This collection contains materials of various formats used and created by historian Dr. Ronald Lewis throughout his career. There are records and course materials from classes taught by Dr. Lewis at the University of Delaware and, primarily, at West Virginia University (WVU). It includes other documents relating to his work as a faculty advisor to graduate students in WVU's history department. There is extensive documentation of his research, most of which was done on Appalachian history and West Virginia coal mining, including articles he has written, facsimiles of primary and secondary sources used in his research, and A/V materials like oral histories. Records generated from Dr. Lewis's scholarly activities are included, such as book and article reviews and conference presentations. There are also materials relating to his other professional pursuits, such as his membership in historical organizations and correspondence with other professionals in the field. This collection provides a broad overview of the work of an historian in an academic institution.The dates provided are reflective of material creation, except within the Welsh Miners and Scott's Run subseries. These dates, listed in folder titles, reflect the content and were determined by the donor when he created and titled these files. Please be aware that the dates may not be accurate for every item within the folder/box but rather reflect the general timeframe of the subject matter.Born digital and audiovisual materials exist within the collection as floppy disks, CDs, DVDs, VHS tapes, and cassettes.Addendum of 2024 May 29 includes similar materials but reflects Dr. Lewis's more recent work. There are materials relating to his work as a professor and faculty member, the development of two books and other publications, and documentation of his career. Common formats include lecture notes, facsimiles of research sources, and correspondence; digital materials exist within the addendum as floppy disks, zip disks, and CDs.","A group of bound dissertations has been separated at the donor's request. They were written from 1990-2009 and focus on West Virginia-related historical subjects. Dr. Lewis served on the dissertaion committee for each.

Ann Pamela Cunningham, the Founder and First Regent of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association, met Macalester while in Philadelphia receiving medical treatment and later appointed her the Vice Regent of Pennsylvania. Macalester married Alfred Berghmans in 1861 and the couple had one daughter, Camille. When her husband died in 1874, Mrs. Berghmans remained a widow for three years then married John Scott Laughton of Philadelphia. The couple moved to Algeria in an attempt to better Mr. Laughton's health, however, he died a few months later in January 1878.","Mrs. Laughton, a popular and well-connected woman, was an extremely successful fundraiser for the MVLA. Her home state of Pennsylvania ranked fifth among state contributions for the Association. A generous donor herself, Laughton dutifully sought Washington-related artifacts at auctions and donated many valuable items to Mount Vernon. Ann Pamela Cunningham personally selected Laughton as her successor and she was unanimously appointed Regent in 1874. Laughton's daughter, Camille, married Spanish nobleman, Jose de Pedroso in 1887.
