","Lucy Elizabeth Prichard  (October 26, 1876 - July 29, 1964) was born in Cattlettsburg, Kentucky. Daughter of Robert H. and Mary Prichard, she had a brother, Karl, and a sister-in-law, Elizabeth. Lucy taught at Huntington High School from 1899-1913, and taught Latin and Classical Studies at Marshall College (now Marshall University) from 1914-1941. Marshall's Prichard Hall was named in her honor.","Louis Eckert Reed  (born October 1, 1899 in Wirt County, WV; died January 31, 1979 in Elizabeth, WV) served as a sergeant in the US Army during WWI, served as Administrative Assistant to Senator Chapman Revercomb, and worked as a prosecuting attorney in Wirt County, WV. He also wrote for  Atlantic Monthly .","James Franklin \"Jim\" Comstock  was born to Harry Clinton and Myrtle Blanche in Richwood, West Virginia on February 25, 1911. He married Miss Ola Stowers in Huntington, WV, on October 18, 1933; they would have two daughters, Sandra Ferguson and Elaine Nagy, and a son, Jay. In 1934, Comstock received B.A. from Marshall College (now Marshall University). From 1938-1942, he taught at Richwood High School and wrote for the  Clarksburg Telegram . He served in the U.S. Navy from 1944-1946, and upon returning home he founded the  Nicholas County News Leader  (originally  News Letter ) with Bronson D. McClung (1920-2004), a former student of his. On December 25, 1963, the  Nicholas County News Leader  combined with  Nicholas Republican ; in 1984, it became the  Richwood News Leader . Comstock remained an active part of the paper till his death on May 22, 1996.\n \n In 1957, Comstock founded the weekly  West Virginia Hillbilly  with McClung, and became its editor. The paper included feature articles, columns of special interest to West Virginians, book notes, and the \"Comstock Load,\" the editor's own column on the back page. Comstock first tried to sell the  Hillbilly  in 1976. In 1981, he sold it to the South Charleston Publishing Company. On February 25, 1986, he repurchased and began resuscitating the  Hillbilly . In 1992, he sold the  Hillbilly  to Sandy McCauley. In 2001, the  Hillbilly  ceased publication.","Comstock was involved in many endeavors in addition to his newspaper editing and reporting activities. In 1963, he ran unsuccessfully for Congress on the Republican ticket. He wrote, edited, and contributed to various books, including  Pa and Ma and Mr. Kennedy , a 50-volume  West Virginia Heritage Encyclopedia , and a collection of newspaper highlights entitled  Best of Hillbilly . He was also involved in republishing books by West Virginian authors. He campaigned to purchase and preserve author Pearl S. Buck's birthplace at Hillsboro, and he helped save the Cass Scenic Railroad. He also founded the University of Hard Knocks, a lighthearted honorary society that recognizes the accomplishments of people who have succeeded in life without a college degree.","Papers of James (\"Jim\") Franklin Comstock of Richwood, West Virginia, whose position as editor of the  West Virginia Hillbilly  and avocation as collector and advocate of all things West Virginia led to the preservation of much of the state's physical, visual, and textual history. The collection includes materials Comstock collected about West Virginia history as well as his own personal and professional papers.","Materials include: general series of historical documents such as letters, deeds, and county court cases pertaining to a diverse range of subjects (1717, 1754-1988, undated [includes facsimiles]); letters of Lucy Prichard, former instructor at Marshall College (now Marshall University) (1925-1927, undated); clippings and typescripts of Wirt County resident and  Atlantic Monthly  writer Louis Eckert Reed (ca. 1960-1975, undated); account books concerning economic development and commercial activities in the northern part of the state in the 19th and early 20th centuries (1830-1938); printed material about West Virginia schools, businesses, and events as well as non-West Virginia books and pamphlets (1829-1995, undated); Comstock's personal and professional correspondence (1882-1995, undated); a wide variety of photographs, including images of West Virginia cities and towns, among many others (ca. 1850s-1995, undated); microfilmed records of the Civil War and Dunmore's War (undated); glass lantern slides, which include views of scenery and buildings in Wheeling and various other locations in Ohio County, WV (1871-1897, undated); Grand Army of the Republic and U.S. military history scrapbooks (1883-1918); broadsides, including advertisements for a circus in Moundsville (ca. 1827-1960 [includes facsimiles]); and maps and atlases of pre- and post-statehood West Virginia, counties, colonial North America, and other topics (1730-1976, undated [includes facsimiles]).","An addendum of 2013/05 includes additional personal and professional correspondence, publications, newspaper morgue files, photographs, audio-visual material, artifacts, scrapbooks, account books, and maps.

Box 1 includes three subgroups: the Barnet Cushwa Papers, West Virginia Documents, and Non-West Virginia Documents. Boxes 2a-3 contain material of mixed origin. Additional historical documents can be found in Series 17, Oversize, and in subseries Oversize--Manuscripts.","This subseries includes a collection of materials documenting the activities of Cushwa, a prominent farmer and later the sheriff of Berkeley County in the 1850s. Cushwa's papers reveal his activities as administrator of the Daniel Gehr estate (1839-1843). The Berkeley County documents, including lists of landholdings, orders, taxes, and fee collections, demonstrate his duties as sheriff in the 1850s. See Series 17, Oversize, box 117 for Berkeley County land holdings, sheriff's accounts, and lists of orders, taxes, fees, etc. (1854-1858).","This subseries is comprised of correspondence and other material, principally concerning commercial and development activities in north-central West Virginia. These items are grouped by county; please note that there is overlap between counties.   Highlights include:  items relating to Harman Blennerhassett (box 1, folder 12);  a six-page letter written by William G. Brown answering questions concerning the constitutionality of the movement for West Virginia statehood (June 28, 1862) (box 1, folder 13);  letters and reminiscences focusing on the reunions of the Battle of Philippi (1911-1935) (box 1, folder 14); and  two letters from the abolitionist John Brown (box 1, folder 15)."," Additional West Virginia documents can be found in boxes 2a-2c.","Highlights of this subseries include:  four letters from soldiers in the Mexican War;  seventeen letters from Pennsylvania soldier James M. Weaver, principally to his wife, during his service in the Civil War;  a confidential letter from President James Monroe explaining his policy on fortifying the frontier;  seven Booker T. Washington letters;  two letters from Revolutionary War general Horatio Gates; and  a folder of letters written by famous 19th century figures including Samuel Clemens, Collis P. Huntington, Nathaniel P. Banks, and Newton D. Baker.","This subseries contains correspondence, invoices, deeds, tax documents, court cases, and other material. Most of the items pertain to West Virginia.  Highlights include:  bills and invoices of G.H.A. Kunst and John H. Kunst (1853-1867, 1892-1893);  papers of the Wells family of Sistersville (1806-1885);  a telegram regarding the burning of Harpers Ferry (1861);  a broadside listing members of Company H, 3rd Regiment, Potomac Home Brigade, Maryland Infantry (undated); and  legal documents regarding the manumission of slaves (1820-1828, 1856).","Lucy Prichard taught Latin and Classical Studies at Marshall College from 1914 to 1941. This series includes correspondence, photographs, and printed material. Correspondence includes Karl Prichard's letters (1918) and Lucy Prichard's letters (1925-1927, undated). Lucy's letters are addressed to her mother, Mrs. R.H. Prichard, in Huntington, WV. Many of Lucy's letters relate to her travels and studies in the Peloponnesus peninsula of Greece, the British Isles, Western Europe, and Italy in 1925 and 1927. For more information on Lucy Prichard, see the Historical Note.","This series includes newspaper clippings and typescripts of Wirt County resident and Atlantic Monthly writer Louis Eckert Reed. The newspaper clippings show images of Reed family photos (1960). The typescripts are short stories written by Louis, many likely unpublished. Also included are notes and a draft of  Burning Springs, Virginia: The Civil War's Unsolved Mystery , initially a paper that Reed prepared for the West Virginia Historical Society (see  Burning Springs, West Virginia: the Civil War's Unsolved Mystery , by Louis Reed, self-published in Elizabeth, WV, 1960). This material may have been developed for his later fictional novel,  Burning Springs  (published in Huntington, WV by University Editions/Aegina Press, 1985). For more information on Reed, see the Historical Note. A letter from Louis Reed to Jim Comstock regarding Reed's book  Warning in Appalachia  (1967) can be found in Series 6, Comstock Correspondence, box 62, folder 27. Other letters from Reed may be found elsewhere in Series 6, Correspondence.","This series includes 27 account books, many of which relate to north-central West Virginia businesses. These ledgers document general stores, a Jewish-owned clothing store in Richwood, the activities of an itinerant Methodist minister in the mining villages of north-central West Virginia, grocery stores and meat markets, a glass manufacturer, and other businesses. See Separated Materials note for information on volumes separated to other collections.","Thistle and Cox formed a partnership in Tyler County, [West] Virginia in March of 1835. This is the partnership's first ledger, which spans the years 1835-1837, but reference is made to the transfer of accounts to at least one subsequent ledger. The business appears to have been located near the Ohio River (probably in Sistersville), since customers included Ohio as well as Tyler County citizens. Although the debit side for each customer only lists the term \"merchandise\" for purchases, the ledger reveals the barter nature of much of the rural economy of Tyler County on the credit side. Among items received in trade by Thistle and Cox were chestnuts, hides, bees wax, rags, sand, tobacco, clothes, meats, produce, and various forms of labor. The ledger also frequently lists the occupations or residences of many of the customers. Included were coopers, tanners, blacksmiths, preachers, schoolteachers, and carpenters, scattered from Point Pleasant to Wheeling.","Inventory and Book Accounts. This volume contains a 66-page inventory of goods on hand and their prices in a Tyler County general store in January 1877. The inventory is divided into the following categories: fancy groceries, groceries, men's shoes, ladies' shoes, children's shoes, overshoes, dress goods, wall paper, housewares, and other. Starting on page 71 is a four-page list of the book accounts of the store's customers, presumably on that same date.","The Cordray Carriage Company was a short-lived business in Fairmont, WV. The ledger lists only the customers and the amount they owed T.L. Cordray, the proprietor of the Carriage Company. The ledger does not list the services for which the customers were charged. However, one itemized account invoice on an inserted piece of paper suggests that the Cordray Carriage Company repaired vehicles. For H.O. Amos, from 1907 through 1911, the Company repaired couplings, repaired and painted the body, repaired the interior, raised the body, and tightened and repaired the fenders, for a total charge of $118. The ledger includes more than 400 customers.","A. H. Breckstein was a Jewish merchant who operated a clothing store in the boom town of Richwood, in Nicholas County. Volume 10 is a cash book detailing daily transactions in the store, both sales and expenses, for part of 1910, and consistently for the period 1928 to 1936. There are also monthly accountings of both cash and credit sales as well as expenses. Volume 11 documents sales and purchases of clothing for the period 1926 to 1934. The sales portion of this volume repeats information available in volume 10. Volume 12 is a ledger of accounts payable for the period 1921-1928, showing the firms from which Breckstein purchased his goods. Included are companies in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and New York.","J.C. Shock was a Methodist minister assigned to a parish in Pullman, WV in 1910. However, he also appeared to be an itinerant preacher, and his account book lists ministerial services provided for the towns and villages of Duffy, Straight Fork, Falls Mill, Glady, and Kingknob, in the north-central West Virginia counties of Lewis, Ritchie, and Wetzel. The account book documents Shock's ministry, listing the text for sermons preached at various towns as well as the contributions of those towns to his salary. Most of the entries cover the years 1910-1917, at which time his base of operations seems to have shifted permanently to Falls Run and Falls Mill in Braxton County. There are entries for sermons, marriages, and assessments for those towns running to 1938. An additional folder contains miscellaneous documents related to Shock found within the ledger.","In the 1890s, Mrs. Samuel C. Gans operated a general store in Moundsville, which by 1900 was specializing in dry goods. This ledger reflects the volume of business and the timing and means of settling accounts. The early pages (for the 1890s) are more detailed, listing the items purchased from the general store. For the later period, the entries are frequently limited to the terms \"goods\" or \"merchandise.\" The back of the volume also contains some notes and miscellaneous accounts, such as rooms rented.","In 1892, a number of Charleston's German families banded together to form an Evangelical Lutheran Church. Subscriptions for a building fund and other church work began to be collected in October of that year. This ledger documents the subscriptions of the founding members of St. Paul's Evangelical Church. It also provides an accounting of the expenses and building funds contributed by the members, including the purchase of a lot on Court Street in Charleston, the church's construction, and the salary of the minister.","These volumes were written by Albert S. Hayden, Notary Public in and for the county of Marion and the state of West Virginia. He recorded handwritten copies of promissory notes and bills presented at Fairmont, WV banks for redemption, which were protested by the First National Bank of Fairmont's cashier. The ledgers also list the date protested, by whom, and the notices mailed to note signers. Most notes originated in West Virginia, but some originated in Ohio. Volume 16a covers 1870-1873. Volume 16b covers 1875-1876.","Anthony Zidn operated a grocery and dry goods store outside of Fairmont on RFD #2. Zidn was an immigrant from the Middle East (perhaps Armenia, as suggested by the fact he kept his accounts in Persian and had a Christian name). These three ledgers document his business, although most of the information is written in Persian.","The Price Brothers operated a general store in the small village of Amos on the Paw Paw Creek, eleven miles from the town of Fairmont in Marion County. The Price Brothers sold all sorts of groceries to people in the town, as documented by this ledger. In addition, the Polk business directory for 1902-1903 notes that the Price sisters operated a millinery business in Amos. There are loose papers within the ledger, including statements and product advertisements (1905-1907, undated).","At the turn of the century, there were four wholesale meat provisioners in Wheeling. This ledger represents the operations of one of them for the years 1901-1902. The company principally supplied general stores and grocers in eastern Ohio, northern West Virginia, southwestern Pennsylvania, and western Maryland. However, individuals could also buy directly. Entries typically include the name of the purchaser, the town in which the purchaser resides, and the amount of the purchase. For local buyers, the ledger frequently lists the Wheeling address. Since transactions are usually noted only as merchandise, it is impossible to glean what types of meats were being purchased at what costs.","Jacob Hornbrook was born in Tavistock, England, in 1812 and moved with his parents to Wheeling when he was a small child. Jacob's father ran a small [business?] in Wheeling. As a young man, Jacob began a mercantile business buying and selling produce on the flatboats travelling on the Ohio River. He later started a notions store, purchased interest in a steamship line and the First National Bank, and was president and owned stock in the Wheeling Gas Company. These three books, a journal (volume 20; 1847-1874), a ledger (volume 21; 1847-1874), and a cash book (volume 22; 1845-1874), document his business interests, investments, and personal expenses during the last three decades of his life. Although he remained an active investor, Hornbrook retired from his mercantile business in 1855 with an estate valued at more than $30,000. In 1852, he moved to what he called \"Forest Home\" near Wheeling Park, and he served in the West Virginia legislature during the Civil War.","This volume includes a manuscript copy of the act \"To incorporate the Wheeling Gas Company\" issued March 18, 1850; a copy of a related Wheeling city ordinance, issued April 29, 1850; stockholders meeting minutes, April 15, April 25, May 1, May 9, and May 11, 1850; and lists of subscribers, the number of shares of stock, and the amount paid.","George C. Gans was a physician practicing in Marshall County in the decades prior to the Civil War. Although most of his patients resided in the area around Moundsville and Elizabeth, Gans does not appear in either the 1840 or the 1850 U.S. census schedules for Marshall County. The ledger documents his treatment of families in Marshall County for a wide variety of ills, including typhoid fever (1861), cholera (1847), and farm injuries. Gans also routinely attended childbirths. His treatments included blistering, bleeding, venesection, lancing, and operating as well as administering medicine and pills. In return for his services, Gans routinely accepted farm produce, labor on his farm, and other useful items such as shingles. He went on to serve as an assistant surgeon in the Civil War.","This is a ledger of an Elizabeth, PA, glass manufacturer's accounts with his workers. The manufacturer ran some type of company store, and the ledger thus includes debits for cash and merchandise received by the workers and credits for the various types of labor performed, including glass blowing, teasing, cutting, coal mining, blacksmithing, and box making. In addition, the ledger includes the manufacturer's accounts with a boarding house owner for boarding his workers and with a local merchant who supplied the company store. In general, the ledger provides insights into the earnings of mid-19th century artisans as well as the operation of a small, rural glass-making establishment.","This consignment book documents commodity prices and the wide variety of goods received by a Wheeling commission merchant house during the 1830s. It also provides insights into the local industrial development, since the commission merchants routinely received goods on consignment from local manufacturers, such as the German Manufacturing Company (textiles). At the beginning of the book, there is evidence that the firm engaged a peddler to make trips in 1830, and the commission house also conducted auctions during the 1830s.","Moses Chapline was a prominent citizen in Wheeling, at various times an attorney, a general store owner, and in the 1830s, mayor. This daybook documents the daily trade at his store during 1845. Included are entries for purchases of a wide variety of goods as well as entries for store expenses, such as insurance, soap, and transportation. The A. Loring who appears frequently throughout was probably Alonzo Loring, a clerk at the store.","Harry Hood and Company was a retail meat and dairy market in Fairmont, WV. This ledger covers the last few months of 1906 and the first months of 1907. It documents purchases of meat from wholesale producers, such as Armour and Company, and sales of meat to local businesses and individuals in Fairmont. Transactions are typically listed only as \"merchandise,\" making it difficult to glean any information concerning prices or consumption patterns. The ledger is used only for the first 150 of its 500 pages, and the business does not appear in the Polk business directory of 1906-1907, suggesting the possibility that it folded some time in 1907.","This ledger documents a general store in Tyler County, probably near Middlebourne, the county seat. Although fairly routine entries characterize customer purchases, the volume also documents purchases from wholesale merchants, beginning on page 251. Included are such firms as Hubbard and Paull, and Jos. Speidel, both of Wheeling; Ed Roome of Sistersville; and Burgunder Brothers and Company, of Columbus, Ohio. Also, the ledger often lists the occupations of the store's customers. Included are John Gates, an oil rig builder (reflecting the emergence of the local oil business) and a number of customers connected to a local woolen mill.","John Gallaher, Christian Ansbrutz, and Caleb Bleakmor started a general store partnership in 1853. Prior to that date, Gallaher operated a store in Moundsville, which is documented in the first 90 pages of the daybook. The daybook follows the partnership for only six months (until September 1853), but then another Moundsville general store (involving Bleakmor) used the daybook during 1856. In the 1850 census, Bleakmor was listed as a constable, age 49, born in Maryland; and Ansbrutz was listed as a miller, age 47, born in France, worth $23,000. Only Gallaher, a 53-year-old Irishman worth $12,000, was listed as a merchant. From the evidence in the daybook, it appears that the partnership was short-lived.","This series includes ephemera, sheet music, booklets, pamphlets, and correspondence.

See Separated Materials note for information on volumes separated to other collections.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThistle and Cox formed a partnership in Tyler County, [West] Virginia in March of 1835. This is the partnership's first ledger, which spans the years 1835-1837, but reference is made to the transfer of accounts to at least one subsequent ledger. The business appears to have been located near the Ohio River (probably in Sistersville), since customers included Ohio as well as Tyler County citizens. Although the debit side for each customer only lists the term \"merchandise\" for purchases, the ledger reveals the barter nature of much of the rural economy of Tyler County on the credit side. Among items received in trade by Thistle and Cox were chestnuts, hides, bees wax, rags, sand, tobacco, clothes, meats, produce, and various forms of labor. The ledger also frequently lists the occupations or residences of many of the customers. Included were coopers, tanners, blacksmiths, preachers, schoolteachers, and carpenters, scattered from Point Pleasant to Wheeling.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eInventory and Book Accounts. This volume contains a 66-page inventory of goods on hand and their prices in a Tyler County general store in January 1877. The inventory is divided into the following categories: fancy groceries, groceries, men's shoes, ladies' shoes, children's shoes, overshoes, dress goods, wall paper, housewares, and other. Starting on page 71 is a four-page list of the book accounts of the store's customers, presumably on that same date.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThe Cordray Carriage Company was a short-lived business in Fairmont, WV. The ledger lists only the customers and the amount they owed T.L. Cordray, the proprietor of the Carriage Company. The ledger does not list the services for which the customers were charged. However, one itemized account invoice on an inserted piece of paper suggests that the Cordray Carriage Company repaired vehicles. For H.O. Amos, from 1907 through 1911, the Company repaired couplings, repaired and painted the body, repaired the interior, raised the body, and tightened and repaired the fenders, for a total charge of $118. The ledger includes more than 400 customers.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eA. H. Breckstein was a Jewish merchant who operated a clothing store in the boom town of Richwood, in Nicholas County. Volume 10 is a cash book detailing daily transactions in the store, both sales and expenses, for part of 1910, and consistently for the period 1928 to 1936. There are also monthly accountings of both cash and credit sales as well as expenses. Volume 11 documents sales and purchases of clothing for the period 1926 to 1934. The sales portion of this volume repeats information available in volume 10. Volume 12 is a ledger of accounts payable for the period 1921-1928, showing the firms from which Breckstein purchased his goods. Included are companies in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and New York.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eJ.C. Shock was a Methodist minister assigned to a parish in Pullman, WV in 1910. However, he also appeared to be an itinerant preacher, and his account book lists ministerial services provided for the towns and villages of Duffy, Straight Fork, Falls Mill, Glady, and Kingknob, in the north-central West Virginia counties of Lewis, Ritchie, and Wetzel. The account book documents Shock's ministry, listing the text for sermons preached at various towns as well as the contributions of those towns to his salary. Most of the entries cover the years 1910-1917, at which time his base of operations seems to have shifted permanently to Falls Run and Falls Mill in Braxton County. There are entries for sermons, marriages, and assessments for those towns running to 1938. An additional folder contains miscellaneous documents related to Shock found within the ledger.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIn the 1890s, Mrs. Samuel C. Gans operated a general store in Moundsville, which by 1900 was specializing in dry goods. This ledger reflects the volume of business and the timing and means of settling accounts. The early pages (for the 1890s) are more detailed, listing the items purchased from the general store. For the later period, the entries are frequently limited to the terms \"goods\" or \"merchandise.\" The back of the volume also contains some notes and miscellaneous accounts, such as rooms rented.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIn 1892, a number of Charleston's German families banded together to form an Evangelical Lutheran Church. Subscriptions for a building fund and other church work began to be collected in October of that year. This ledger documents the subscriptions of the founding members of St. Paul's Evangelical Church. It also provides an accounting of the expenses and building funds contributed by the members, including the purchase of a lot on Court Street in Charleston, the church's construction, and the salary of the minister.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThese volumes were written by Albert S. Hayden, Notary Public in and for the county of Marion and the state of West Virginia. He recorded handwritten copies of promissory notes and bills presented at Fairmont, WV banks for redemption, which were protested by the First National Bank of Fairmont's cashier. The ledgers also list the date protested, by whom, and the notices mailed to note signers. Most notes originated in West Virginia, but some originated in Ohio. Volume 16a covers 1870-1873. Volume 16b covers 1875-1876.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eAnthony Zidn operated a grocery and dry goods store outside of Fairmont on RFD #2. Zidn was an immigrant from the Middle East (perhaps Armenia, as suggested by the fact he kept his accounts in Persian and had a Christian name). These three ledgers document his business, although most of the information is written in Persian.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThe Price Brothers operated a general store in the small village of Amos on the Paw Paw Creek, eleven miles from the town of Fairmont in Marion County. The Price Brothers sold all sorts of groceries to people in the town, as documented by this ledger. In addition, the Polk business directory for 1902-1903 notes that the Price sisters operated a millinery business in Amos. There are loose papers within the ledger, including statements and product advertisements (1905-1907, undated).\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eAt the turn of the century, there were four wholesale meat provisioners in Wheeling. This ledger represents the operations of one of them for the years 1901-1902. The company principally supplied general stores and grocers in eastern Ohio, northern West Virginia, southwestern Pennsylvania, and western Maryland. However, individuals could also buy directly. Entries typically include the name of the purchaser, the town in which the purchaser resides, and the amount of the purchase. For local buyers, the ledger frequently lists the Wheeling address. Since transactions are usually noted only as merchandise, it is impossible to glean what types of meats were being purchased at what costs.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eJacob Hornbrook was born in Tavistock, England, in 1812 and moved with his parents to Wheeling when he was a small child. Jacob's father ran a small [business?] in Wheeling. As a young man, Jacob began a mercantile business buying and selling produce on the flatboats travelling on the Ohio River. He later started a notions store, purchased interest in a steamship line and the First National Bank, and was president and owned stock in the Wheeling Gas Company. These three books, a journal (volume 20; 1847-1874), a ledger (volume 21; 1847-1874), and a cash book (volume 22; 1845-1874), document his business interests, investments, and personal expenses during the last three decades of his life. Although he remained an active investor, Hornbrook retired from his mercantile business in 1855 with an estate valued at more than $30,000. In 1852, he moved to what he called \"Forest Home\" near Wheeling Park, and he served in the West Virginia legislature during the Civil War.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThis volume includes a manuscript copy of the act \"To incorporate the Wheeling Gas Company\" issued March 18, 1850; a copy of a related Wheeling city ordinance, issued April 29, 1850; stockholders meeting minutes, April 15, April 25, May 1, May 9, and May 11, 1850; and lists of subscribers, the number of shares of stock, and the amount paid.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eGeorge C. Gans was a physician practicing in Marshall County in the decades prior to the Civil War. Although most of his patients resided in the area around Moundsville and Elizabeth, Gans does not appear in either the 1840 or the 1850 U.S. census schedules for Marshall County. The ledger documents his treatment of families in Marshall County for a wide variety of ills, including typhoid fever (1861), cholera (1847), and farm injuries. Gans also routinely attended childbirths. His treatments included blistering, bleeding, venesection, lancing, and operating as well as administering medicine and pills. In return for his services, Gans routinely accepted farm produce, labor on his farm, and other useful items such as shingles. He went on to serve as an assistant surgeon in the Civil War.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThis is a ledger of an Elizabeth, PA, glass manufacturer's accounts with his workers. The manufacturer ran some type of company store, and the ledger thus includes debits for cash and merchandise received by the workers and credits for the various types of labor performed, including glass blowing, teasing, cutting, coal mining, blacksmithing, and box making. In addition, the ledger includes the manufacturer's accounts with a boarding house owner for boarding his workers and with a local merchant who supplied the company store. In general, the ledger provides insights into the earnings of mid-19th century artisans as well as the operation of a small, rural glass-making establishment.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThis consignment book documents commodity prices and the wide variety of goods received by a Wheeling commission merchant house during the 1830s. It also provides insights into the local industrial development, since the commission merchants routinely received goods on consignment from local manufacturers, such as the German Manufacturing Company (textiles). At the beginning of the book, there is evidence that the firm engaged a peddler to make trips in 1830, and the commission house also conducted auctions during the 1830s.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eMoses Chapline was a prominent citizen in Wheeling, at various times an attorney, a general store owner, and in the 1830s, mayor. This daybook documents the daily trade at his store during 1845. Included are entries for purchases of a wide variety of goods as well as entries for store expenses, such as insurance, soap, and transportation. The A. Loring who appears frequently throughout was probably Alonzo Loring, a clerk at the store.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eHarry Hood and Company was a retail meat and dairy market in Fairmont, WV. This ledger covers the last few months of 1906 and the first months of 1907. It documents purchases of meat from wholesale producers, such as Armour and Company, and sales of meat to local businesses and individuals in Fairmont. Transactions are typically listed only as \"merchandise,\" making it difficult to glean any information concerning prices or consumption patterns. The ledger is used only for the first 150 of its 500 pages, and the business does not appear in the Polk business directory of 1906-1907, suggesting the possibility that it folded some time in 1907.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eThis ledger documents a general store in Tyler County, probably near Middlebourne, the county seat. Although fairly routine entries characterize customer purchases, the volume also documents purchases from wholesale merchants, beginning on page 251. Included are such firms as Hubbard and Paull, and Jos. Speidel, both of Wheeling; Ed Roome of Sistersville; and Burgunder Brothers and Company, of Columbus, Ohio. Also, the ledger often lists the occupations of the store's customers.

Prior to that date, Gallaher operated a store in Moundsville, which is documented in the first 90 pages of the daybook. The daybook follows the partnership for only six months (until September 1853), but then another Moundsville general store (involving Bleakmor) used the daybook during 1856. In the 1850 census, Bleakmor was listed as a constable, age 49, born in Maryland; and Ansbrutz was listed as a miller, age 47, born in France, worth $23,000. Only Gallaher, a 53-year-old Irishman worth $12,000, was listed as a merchant.

See Separated Materials note for information on volumes separated to other collections.","Thistle and Cox formed a partnership in Tyler County, [West] Virginia in March of 1835. This is the partnership's first ledger, which spans the years 1835-1837, but reference is made to the transfer of accounts to at least one subsequent ledger. The business appears to have been located near the Ohio River (probably in Sistersville), since customers included Ohio as well as Tyler County citizens. Although the debit side for each customer only lists the term \"merchandise\" for purchases, the ledger reveals the barter nature of much of the rural economy of Tyler County on the credit side. Among items received in trade by Thistle and Cox were chestnuts, hides, bees wax, rags, sand, tobacco, clothes, meats, produce, and various forms of labor. The ledger also frequently lists the occupations or residences of many of the customers. Included were coopers, tanners, blacksmiths, preachers, schoolteachers, and carpenters, scattered from Point Pleasant to Wheeling.","Inventory and Book Accounts. This volume contains a 66-page inventory of goods on hand and their prices in a Tyler County general store in January 1877. The inventory is divided into the following categories: fancy groceries, groceries, men's shoes, ladies' shoes, children's shoes, overshoes, dress goods, wall paper, housewares, and other. Starting on page 71 is a four-page list of the book accounts of the store's customers, presumably on that same date.","The Cordray Carriage Company was a short-lived business in Fairmont, WV. The ledger lists only the customers and the amount they owed T.L. Cordray, the proprietor of the Carriage Company. The ledger does not list the services for which the customers were charged. However, one itemized account invoice on an inserted piece of paper suggests that the Cordray Carriage Company repaired vehicles. For H.O. Amos, from 1907 through 1911, the Company repaired couplings, repaired and painted the body, repaired the interior, raised the body, and tightened and repaired the fenders, for a total charge of $118. The ledger includes more than 400 customers.","A. H. Breckstein was a Jewish merchant who operated a clothing store in the boom town of Richwood, in Nicholas County. Volume 10 is a cash book detailing daily transactions in the store, both sales and expenses, for part of 1910, and consistently for the period 1928 to 1936. There are also monthly accountings of both cash and credit sales as well as expenses. Volume 11 documents sales and purchases of clothing for the period 1926 to 1934. The sales portion of this volume repeats information available in volume 10. Volume 12 is a ledger of accounts payable for the period 1921-1928, showing the firms from which Breckstein purchased his goods. Included are companies in Baltimore, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and New York.","J.C. Shock was a Methodist minister assigned to a parish in Pullman, WV in 1910. However, he also appeared to be an itinerant preacher, and his account book lists ministerial services provided for the towns and villages of Duffy, Straight Fork, Falls Mill, Glady, and Kingknob, in the north-central West Virginia counties of Lewis, Ritchie, and Wetzel. The account book documents Shock's ministry, listing the text for sermons preached at various towns as well as the contributions of those towns to his salary. Most of the entries cover the years 1910-1917, at which time his base of operations seems to have shifted permanently to Falls Run and Falls Mill in Braxton County. There are entries for sermons, marriages, and assessments for those towns running to 1938. An additional folder contains miscellaneous documents related to Shock found within the ledger.","In the 1890s, Mrs. Samuel C. Gans operated a general store in Moundsville, which by 1900 was specializing in dry goods. This ledger reflects the volume of business and the timing and means of settling accounts. The early pages (for the 1890s) are more detailed, listing the items purchased from the general store. For the later period, the entries are frequently limited to the terms \"goods\" or \"merchandise.\" The back of the volume also contains some notes and miscellaneous accounts, such as rooms rented.","In 1892, a number of Charleston's German families banded together to form an Evangelical Lutheran Church. Subscriptions for a building fund and other church work began to be collected in October of that year. This ledger documents the subscriptions of the founding members of St. Paul's Evangelical Church. It also provides an accounting of the expenses and building funds contributed by the members, including the purchase of a lot on Court Street in Charleston, the church's construction, and the salary of the minister.","These volumes were written by Albert S. Hayden, Notary Public in and for the county of Marion and the state of West Virginia. He recorded handwritten copies of promissory notes and bills presented at Fairmont, WV banks for redemption, which were protested by the First National Bank of Fairmont's cashier. The ledgers also list the date protested, by whom, and the notices mailed to note signers. Most notes originated in West Virginia, but some originated in Ohio. Volume 16a covers 1870-1873. Volume 16b covers 1875-1876.","Anthony Zidn operated a grocery and dry goods store outside of Fairmont on RFD #2. Zidn was an immigrant from the Middle East (perhaps Armenia, as suggested by the fact he kept his accounts in Persian and had a Christian name). These three ledgers document his business, although most of the information is written in Persian.","The Price Brothers operated a general store in the small village of Amos on the Paw Paw Creek, eleven miles from the town of Fairmont in Marion County. The Price Brothers sold all sorts of groceries to people in the town, as documented by this ledger. In addition, the Polk business directory for 1902-1903 notes that the Price sisters operated a millinery business in Amos. There are loose papers within the ledger, including statements and product advertisements (1905-1907, undated).","At the turn of the century, there were four wholesale meat provisioners in Wheeling. This ledger represents the operations of one of them for the years 1901-1902. The company principally supplied general stores and grocers in eastern Ohio, northern West Virginia, southwestern Pennsylvania, and western Maryland. However, individuals could also buy directly. Entries typically include the name of the purchaser, the town in which the purchaser resides, and the amount of the purchase. For local buyers, the ledger frequently lists the Wheeling address. Since transactions are usually noted only as merchandise, it is impossible to glean what types of meats were being purchased at what costs.","Jacob Hornbrook was born in Tavistock, England, in 1812 and moved with his parents to Wheeling when he was a small child. Jacob's father ran a small [business?] in Wheeling. As a young man, Jacob began a mercantile business buying and selling produce on the flatboats travelling on the Ohio River. He later started a notions store, purchased interest in a steamship line and the First National Bank, and was president and owned stock in the Wheeling Gas Company. These three books, a journal (volume 20; 1847-1874), a ledger (volume 21; 1847-1874), and a cash book (volume 22; 1845-1874), document his business interests, investments, and personal expenses during the last three decades of his life. Although he remained an active investor, Hornbrook retired from his mercantile business in 1855 with an estate valued at more than $30,000. In 1852, he moved to what he called \"Forest Home\" near Wheeling Park, and he served in the West Virginia legislature during the Civil War.","This volume includes a manuscript copy of the act \"To incorporate the Wheeling Gas Company\" issued March 18, 1850; a copy of a related Wheeling city ordinance, issued April 29, 1850; stockholders meeting minutes, April 15, April 25, May 1, May 9, and May 11, 1850; and lists of subscribers, the number of shares of stock, and the amount paid.","George C. Gans was a physician practicing in Marshall County in the decades prior to the Civil War. Although most of his patients resided in the area around Moundsville and Elizabeth, Gans does not appear in either the 1840 or the 1850 U.S. census schedules for Marshall County. The ledger documents his treatment of families in Marshall County for a wide variety of ills, including typhoid fever (1861), cholera (1847), and farm injuries. Gans also routinely attended childbirths. His treatments included blistering, bleeding, venesection, lancing, and operating as well as administering medicine and pills. In return for his services, Gans routinely accepted farm produce, labor on his farm, and other useful items such as shingles. He went on to serve as an assistant surgeon in the Civil War.","This is a ledger of an Elizabeth, PA, glass manufacturer's accounts with his workers. The manufacturer ran some type of company store, and the ledger thus includes debits for cash and merchandise received by the workers and credits for the various types of labor performed, including glass blowing, teasing, cutting, coal mining, blacksmithing, and box making. In addition, the ledger includes the manufacturer's accounts with a boarding house owner for boarding his workers and with a local merchant who supplied the company store. In general, the ledger provides insights into the earnings of mid-19th century artisans as well as the operation of a small, rural glass-making establishment.","This consignment book documents commodity prices and the wide variety of goods received by a Wheeling commission merchant house during the 1830s. It also provides insights into the local industrial development, since the commission merchants routinely received goods on consignment from local manufacturers, such as the German Manufacturing Company (textiles). At the beginning of the book, there is evidence that the firm engaged a peddler to make trips in 1830, and the commission house also conducted auctions during the 1830s.","Moses Chapline was a prominent citizen in Wheeling, at various times an attorney, a general store owner, and in the 1830s, mayor. This daybook documents the daily trade at his store during 1845. Included are entries for purchases of a wide variety of goods as well as entries for store expenses, such as insurance, soap, and transportation. The A. Loring who appears frequently throughout was probably Alonzo Loring, a clerk at the store.","Harry Hood and Company was a retail meat and dairy market in Fairmont, WV. This ledger covers the last few months of 1906 and the first months of 1907. It documents purchases of meat from wholesale producers, such as Armour and Company, and sales of meat to local businesses and individuals in Fairmont. Transactions are typically listed only as \"merchandise,\" making it difficult to glean any information concerning prices or consumption patterns. The ledger is used only for the first 150 of its 500 pages, and the business does not appear in the Polk business directory of 1906-1907, suggesting the possibility that it folded some time in 1907.","This ledger documents a general store in Tyler County, probably near Middlebourne, the county seat. Although fairly routine entries characterize customer purchases, the volume also documents purchases from wholesale merchants, beginning on page 251. Included are such firms as Hubbard and Paull, and Jos. Speidel, both of Wheeling; Ed Roome of Sistersville; and Burgunder Brothers and Company, of Columbus, Ohio. Also, the ledger often lists the occupations of the store's customers. Included are John Gates, an oil rig builder (reflecting the emergence of the local oil business) and a number of customers connected to a local woolen mill.","John Gallaher, Christian Ansbrutz, and Caleb Bleakmor started a general store partnership in 1853. Prior to that date, Gallaher operated a store in Moundsville, which is documented in the first 90 pages of the daybook. The daybook follows the partnership for only six months (until September 1853), but then another Moundsville general store (involving Bleakmor) used the daybook during 1856. In the 1850 census, Bleakmor was listed as a constable, age 49, born in Maryland; and Ansbrutz was listed as a miller, age 47, born in France, worth $23,000. Only Gallaher, a 53-year-old Irishman worth $12,000, was listed as a merchant. From the evidence in the daybook, it appears that the partnership was short-lived.","This series includes ephemera, sheet music, booklets, pamphlets, and correspondence.

The financial papers, news clippings, pedigrees, manuscripts, and other miscellaneous material have been placed after the correspondence in the last box.","Randolph Huntington (1828-1916), born in Springfield, Massachusetts in 1828, was a New York City pharmaceutical manufacturer. After the Civil War, Huntington moved to a farm in Ontario County, New York, belonging to his wife, to breed and sell fine saddle and coach horses and became a leading American authority on the Arabian horse. Later he moved to Oyster Bay, Long Island, in 1891, before returning to central New York at Rochester, in 1905. ","In 1854, Huntington married Louise Elizabeth Hayes (1833-1917) and they had several children, including: 1)Isabella Lord (1861-1932) who married (1892) the Reverend James Winthrop Hegeman; 2) Allie Louise \n(1863-1908) who married (1884) 1st Willis Fred Gove [died 1892?] and 2nd Frank N. Kondolf in 1893; 3)\nNathaniel Wheeler (1865-1891); 4) Henry Gaylord Norton (1868-1876); and 5) Albert William (1870-1876).","The Albert and Shirley Small Special Collections has an earlier and larger group of Randolph Huntington Correspondence and Ephemera, MSS 11844, with many of the same correspondents.","This collection consists of correspondence and ephemera from the estate of Randolph Huntington. Much of the correspondence pertains in some way to the history, breeding, raising, racing, or showing of the Arabian horse in the United States. "," The papers contain letters from breeders and owners of Arabian horses, editors and writers for sporting periodicals of the period, and correspondents with others interested in horses; printed ephemera; financial and legal papers; pedigrees and breeding records, some printed and some hand-written; hand-written manuscripts by Avedis G. Asdikian and Randolph Huntington on horse breeding; news clippings; and several photographs. "," Huntington became interested in using the two stallions given to former President U.S. Grant in 1877 by the Sultan of Turkey to breed a national horse for the United States. His breeding project, based on the Grant stallions and mares bred from the trotting horse \"Henry Clay,\" was not successful but it did bring the value of Arabian blood to the attention of other American horsemen, most notably Homer Davenport. This collection contains one letter from Homer Davenport to Randolph Huntington (July 15, 1902). "," The depression of 1893 forced Huntington's breeding operations into receivership and his stock was sold by Peter C. Kellogg and Company, auctioneers according to \"The New York Times\" February 18, 1894. Correspondence with Collis P. Huntington, railroad magnate, discusses his requests for loans to alleviate his financial difficulties and save his work. Huntington and several other backers had formed a company in 1891 for the breeding of \"Americo-Arab\" horses, but in 1893 the treasurer, Francis H. Weeks, embezzled most of the company's assets and fled to Costa Rica. This embezzlement also contributed to Huntington's financial troubles which plagued him the rest of his life."," This collection also contains about sixty letters or copies of letters written by Huntington himself, though about fifteen are incomplete. There are also several hand-written manuscripts by Huntington in his papers, many of them also incomplete.\n \nAn eight page letter from Randolph Huntington, August 31, 1899, to George V. Cresson, was added to the \ncollection in 2014 as MSS 15564-a.","Correspondents include: Arthur Ardagh and Armstrong, Shaw and Macauley","Asdikian, chiefly while employed by the Bureau of Animal Husbandry, writes about his work on his paper on the history of the horse for Dr. Salmon (June 21, 1890) and discusses his attempts to have the Department of Agriculture fund his research on horses in Turkey (July 12, 1890).","Correspondents include: Clinton Babbitt, Charles Backman, Bailey Manufacturing Co., Spencer Baird (Smithsonian), Dr. S.

The first (and most extensive) is by an unnamed governess who writes of the loss of a child in her care, Harry.

It focuses on the many losses she experiences across 1859 and her youthful awakening to the numerous hardships the women around her confront.

Unprepared for the situations they find themselves in, the girls act out, have mental health crises, and ultimately flee which are documented by Louisa.","While grief, loss, and unexpected adulthood shape much of Louisa's year, she also reports the kinds of joys that remind us she is entering her teens.

The manuscript consists of ninety-eight pages of writing, with the rest left blank. The manuscript contains writings by three different women. The first (and most extensive) is by an unnamed governess who writes of the loss of a child in her care, Harry. Her spidery handwriting is even and accomplished, and her use of \"thee\" and \"thou\" throughout suggests she may have been a Quaker. For thirty pages, she expresses her heartfelt love for the child and her grief during Harry's decline. She describes her memories of the boy and his siblings and details the boy's last illness, of about six days' duration, and death.  ","The following forty-eight pages include bereavement verses including poetry, both original and copied from published works, segments of stories, and verses from the bible.  within these pages, the Governess left three pages blank; on the first of these blank pages, \"M.E.G.\" [later identified as Mary E. Grote] wrote about the death of her firstborn son, \"Ernie,\" whose father was Ernest William Davis. In the first line of her text, Grote refers to the manuscript itself as \"this choice collection.\" ","The verse then continues in the governess' hand. Until another passage by Mary Grote appears. It is a five-page memorial titled \"To Ernie,\" dated August 30th, 1874. It is possible that Grote's earlier one-page passage may have been written in 1874. Fourteen blank leaves separate Grote's writing to an entirely different hand and content.

It focuses on the many losses she experiences across 1859 and her youthful awakening to the numerous hardships the women around her confront.  From parental loss to poverty to disease to mental health emergencies, the events of Louisa's 13th year were formative, and she turned to her diary as a place for working out private emotions that burdened her.  ","Louisa balances school, friends, and church with an increasing oversight of her home.  More detail is given as the family continues struggling to keep domestic workers, and it is hinted that Mr. Pratt and the members of the church are drawing labor from girls pulled from the sex trade.  Unprepared for the situations they find themselves in, the girls act out, have mental health crises, and ultimately flee which are documented by Louisa.","While grief, loss, and unexpected adulthood shape much of Louisa's year, she also reports the kinds of joys that remind us she is entering her teens.
