One letter of\n         interest, dated May 1, 1894, written to Haidee and Nannie\n         Perkins from \n          Bessie P. Woods , a missionary doctor's\n         wife, in \n          Tsing Kiang, China , describes the\n         customs, language, and clothing of the people, and explains\n         the needs for foreign missions. Another interesting letter,\n         November 18, 1898, from \n          Ellen Maury Slayden , in \n          San Antonio, Texas , enlightens Nannie on\n         living out west and describes the \"differences between Eastern\n         and Western people.\" During 1898-1935, \n          Eliza Norris (Watson)\n         Perkins wrote to her daughter, Nannie, discussing\n         news of family and friends in great detail, and mentioning\n         events in \n          Charlottesville . There are two letters in\n         1901 with news of \n          Charlottesville : April 15, concerning the\n         election to the Virginia Constitutional Convention; and, May\n         23, describing the city and surrounding area during a flood\n         caused by heavy rainfall, mentioning such sites as the new\n         iron bridge, \n          Holladay House , and \n          Woolen Mills . There are also several\n         letters mentioning persons associated with the \n          University of Virginia : November 28, 1932\n         and October 16, 1933, \n          John Lloyd Newcomb 's tea for Lord and\n         Lady Astor and his appointment as President of the University;\n         February 13, 1933, \n          Frank Abbott 's death and \n          John Staige Davis ' illness; and, July 16,\n         1934, \n          John W. Davis ' speech at the Institute of\n         Public Affairs. A December 13, 1934 letter describes her train\n         trip from \n          Butte, Montana to her home in \n          Charlottesville .","George Perkins also wrote to his daughter,\n         Nannie, after her marriage to \n          Henry Lowndes Maury on November 22, 1898\n         and their subsequent departure to \n          Butte, Montana . While he wrote personal\n         letters to his daughter, he wrote more professional ones to\n         his son-in-law. Many of his letters to Lowndes refer to the\n         latter's legal business, especially his partnerships with \n          Clayberg and Corbett and with \n          Pemberton and Maury (August 25 and\n         September 9, 1899), legal cases, and his being made President\n         of the \n          Bar Association in Butte (December 19,\n         1906). His letters offered support and advice concerning some\n         of these matters. One interesting letter, December 26, 1910,\n         gave a lengthy account of a distant relative's, \n          Charles Alphonso Smith (1864-1924), a \n          University of Virginia professor,\n         successful visit to \n          Berlin , including a lunch with Kaiser\n         Wilhelm and a visit to the palace at \n          Potsdam .","Other letters of interest to Nannie from her family\n         include: September 4, 1899, from her brother, \n          William Allan Perkins , describing a\n         fishing trip that took him across \n          West Virginia and \n          Ohio to a camp near \n          Sault Ste. Marie ; May 9 and June 3, 1918,\n         from her aunt, \n          Hortensia Hay Watson , mentioning the \n          University of Virginia Base Hospital and\n         occurrences during World War I.","In addition, there are travel journals, with transcripts,\n         of \n          Anne \"Nannie\" Henderson (Perkins)\n         Maury and \n          Eliza Norris (Watson) Perkins . During\n         July and August 1891, Nannie kept a journal on her travels\n         from \n          Charlottesville to various places in \n          Virginia and \n          New York , and \n          Washington, D.C. , describing the sites\n         vividly. In July 1910, \n          Lizzie Perkins travelled from \n          Charlottesville to \n          Butte, Montana to visit her daughter and\n         her family, writing of the trip in a small notebook.","The research material includes Mrs. Skeels' correspondence\n         and notes, biographies and genealogies, and copies of material\n         from various repositories concerning the \n          Maury , \n          Perkins , \n          Watson , \n          Norris , and related families. There is much\n         material pertaining to \n          Matthew Fontaine Maury (1806-1873), the\n         first great American oceanographer. Copies of original family\n         letters, diaries, and papers have been placed in this\n         series.","The material has been organized into three series: I. Maury\n         and Perkins Family Papers; II. Research Material of Lydia\n         Lowndes Maury Skeels; and, III. Oversize Material.
