The youngest of four children, including the future Dr. Franklin Scott, Lavinia spent her life surrounded by education. As a child she attended local public schools, including Jacksonville High School, and in 1923 enrolled in a Bachelor's degree program at Illinois College, where her father served as a Dean for eight years before his sudden death in 1926. Lavinia graduated the following year (1927) with a B.A. in History and it was here that she began to devote her life to education full-time, securing a teaching position with Illinois' Harvard Community High School District Number 153 which she held for approximately two years.","Around the beginning of the 1930s, Lavinia's focus shifted from secular education to international educational missionary work. She enrolled in a Master's program with the Yale Divinity School and upon moving to Connecticut spent two years in training with the United Congregational Church in Bridgeport. In August 1932, less than two months after receiving her Master of Art's degree in June, Lavinia was assigned a teaching position at Adams College (formerly Amanzimtoti Institute) in South Africa under the direction of the Congregational Church affiliated American Board of Commissioners for Foreign Missions (ABCFM). ","Lavinia remained at Adams College until she was transferred to nearby Inanda Seminary in 1936 where she assumed the role of Principal, a title which she held for over 30 years. During this time, she fought back against the South African government's discriminatory Apartheid policies, particularly the Bantu Education Act of 1953, which both significantly lowered the quality of education available to Black South Africans and removed government funding for private missionary schools. She also oversaw the school's Centenary Celebration in 1969, as well as several expansions to the campus, including the beginning of what would become the \"Lavinia Scott Chapel\". In 1969, she left Inanda Seminary, transferring to the newly formed Federal Theological Seminary where she returned to a teaching position until her formal retirement circa 1974.","While her retirement saw a return to the United States, ultimately assuming residence in Claremont, California, it did not mean the end of her mission work. For the next 20 years, Lavinia was an active speaker on behalf of the newly formed United Church of Christ as a South African mission representative for the United Church Board for World Ministries (UCBWM), formerly the ABCFM. She also continued her social justice advocacy, working on behalf of both domestic and international causes, including extensive work throughout the 1980s with the Claremont branch of the Task Force on Central America. Despite her busy schedule, Lavinia still found time to continue her love of traveling, including domestic trips with family and friends, and several returns to South Africa and Inanda Seminary.","While Lavinia never fully stopped her missionary work, she did eventually move to a UCC affiliated retirement community in Claremont known as Pilgrim Place where she lived until her passing on July 10, 1997 at the age of 90. She is buried near her family in Jacksonville's Diamond Grove Cemetery.","Processing completed by Meghan Glasbrenner from September 2022 - August 2023.

This series is arranged alphabetically by correspondent last name, group title, or type of correspondence, such as Family letters sent by Lavinia during her years in South Africa.\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newsletter clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photo Christmas card and newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes Inanada Seminary booklet and photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipppings\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes several newspaper clippings and  1978 matriculation reports for Inanda Seminary\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs and newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes multiple photographs sent with letters\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photo card\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photo cards\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping and photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs and photo cards\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes numerous photographs, circa 1990s\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clippings\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping photocopy\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes 2 photocopied photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping photocopy\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph on front of card\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes numerous photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photo Christmas cards\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photo cards\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eAdditional correspondence, particularly letters sent from Lavinia, are held by\n\u003ca href=\"https://findingaids.library.northwestern.edu/repositories/4/resources/829\"\u003eNorthwestern University\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eAdditional correspondence, particularly letters sent from Lavinia, are held by\n\u003ca href=\"https://findingaids.library.northwestern.edu/repositories/4/resources/829\"\u003eNorthwestern University\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes digitized items due to preservation issues, available upon request\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clippings\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes corrected draft copy of profile\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photo Christmas card\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes digitized item due to preservation issues, available upon request\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photographs\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clippings and photograph\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eIncludes newspaper clipping photocopy\u003c/p\u003e","\u003cp\u003eSeries 2: Professional activities (1885, 1917-1997) includes both direct and indirect materials related to Lavinia's professional life as a Christian missionary speaker and educator.

","The Stratford Literary Society was formed in 1914 when members of the Lanier and Lee Literary Societies at the State Normal and Industrial School for Women at Harrisonburg joined to form an organization dedicated to the dramatic arts. At the time of founding, the organization's primary focus was on reading theatrical works. In 1919, the Stratford Literary Society was reconstituted to form the Stratford Dramatic Club, or Sigma Delta Chi, and began to hold yearly performances at the New Virginia Theater in downtown Harrisonburg. On April 4, 1950, the group changed its name to Stratford Players.","The Stratford Players – and theater in general – was initially an extracurricular activity, supervised by faculty in the English department. However, when the Department of Speech and Drama was established in 1966, the Stratford Players came under the direction of theater faculty. In 1986, the Department of Theatre and Dance was formed in the College of Fine Arts, where the Stratford Players is now housed. Though the Stratford Players is not independent from the Department of Theatre and Dance, its membership is open to majors and non-majors alike, and members have a voice in play selection and budget decisions.","The Stratford Players have had many faculty advisors over the years, including: James C. Johnston (1919-1921), Ruth Hudson (1921-1965), Argus Tressider (1935-1939), Leland Shubert (1939-1943), Ainslee Harris (1944-1945), Dr. Mary E. Lattimer (1946-1960), James O. Link (1960-1964), Nancy O'Hare (1964), and Horace Burr (1965-1973). In 1973, Stratford Players leadership changed from a single advisor to a team of faculty, which in the early 1970s, included Allen Lyndrup, Thomas L. King, Pam Johnson, Phil S. Grayson and Roger Hall.","The original finding aid was created in 1998 by Whitney Anne Naman, a theater student at James Madison University from 1994-1998, and assigned the collection number SP 98-0211. The finding aid was edited in June 2008 by Special Collections staff. In February 2018 the finding aid was revised, a new collection number was assigned, and the collection was updated to include record books and other materials originally held in collection SU 93-0031, \"Students: Memorabilia and General.\"","The Stratford Players Records is comprised of record books, scrapbooks, correspondence, photographs, newspaper clippings, rehearsal scripts, and copies of yearbook pages, documenting the activities of the Stratford Players (formerly known as the Stratford Literary Society and the Stratford Dramatic Club), from 1914-1983.","The following plays are mentioned in the collection.

","Delphine Hurst Parsons was born Ida Delphine Hurst on February 21, 1910 to Bayard T. and Ida. L. Hurst of Norfolk, Virginia. Delphine attended Maury High School in Norfolk, graduating in 1928. In the same year, Hurst enrolled at the State Teachers College (later James Madison University) in Harrisonburg, Virginia. In addition to studying elementary education, Hurst participated in numerous extracurricular activities such as the university Bluestone Cotillion Club, Glee Club, Student Government, Lee Literary Society, and Debate Club. The financial constraints brought about by the Great Depression forced Hurst to return to Norfolk during what would have been her junior year at STC. Having already earned her two-year \"normal degree,\" Hurst spent the year in Norfolk teaching fourth grade, taking courses through the College of William \u0026 Mary's extension program in Norfolk, and attending summer school at STC. By 1930, Hurst had earned enough money to return to STC and complete her bachelor's degree on time in the spring of 1931. Hurst was elected to serve as president of her sophomore class and, in spite of her absence, was reelected to the presidency of the senior class in 1931. The 1931 STC yearbook,  Schoolma'am , lists Hurst as one of the \"Most Intellectual\" students of her graduating class.","Upon completing her degree in 1931, Hurst returned to Norfolk where she worked as an itinerant music teacher, traveling by streetcar between city schools. She married James Edward Parsons (January 16, 1912 - December 10, 1986), also of Norfolk, in April of 1941. Following the birth of their daughter in 1949, Delphine temporarily left teaching, but she made a return in 1958 as a teacher of history and English at Hargrave Military Academy in Chatham, Virginia. Hurst continued working at Hargrave until her retirement in 1975. Just as it had been at STC, Delphine's spare time was filled with music. She directed the Hargrave glee club, several church choirs, and she often played as a piano accompanist in Chatham.","Delphine passed away on December 14, 2001 and was buried alongside her husband in Hillcrest Memorial Park in Chatham, Virginia. She is remembered by her daughter Elizabeth Harper as a lover of music as well as travel and history.","Nellie Morgan Cowan Williams was the closest, lifelong friend of Delphine Hurst Parsons. Nellie was born in Norfolk, Virginia on November 2, 1908 to William J. and Mattie M. Cowan. Cowan and Hurst attended Maury High School and, later, the State Teachers College in Harrisonburg together, both completing their degrees in 1931. The two women shared a love of music, and Nellie in particular was known for her extraordinary singing voice. While enrolled at STC, Cowan was a member of music organizations such as the Aeolian Club, Choral Club, Glee Club, as well as the Y.W.C.A, Lee Literary Society and Cotillion Club. Nellie returned to Norfolk, and later Virginia Beach, where she taught upper elementary school. Nellie wed Frank Taylor Williams in the 1960s. At the wedding, Delphine stood as Nellie's maid of honor just as Nellie had done for her so many years before. The marriage was cut short by the untimely death of Frank Williams in June 1966. Nellie passed away on April 10, 1998 and is buried at Forest Lawn Cemetery in Norfolk.","Nellie Cowan's 1931  Schoolma'am  was removed from the collection due to lack of annotations and due to duplication elsewhere in Special Collections. Loose items found within yearbooks were removed and foldered separately. The scrapbooks remain intact with the exception of loose and oversized items which were removed and placed in folders; these folders are marked to indicate the original location of their contents.","\nThe Delphine Hurst Parsons Papers, 1923-1976, bulk 1923-1931, consist of one legal size half-Hollinger box containing folders of loose documents, two Hollinger boxes containing seven yearbooks from Maury High School and the State Teachers College, and three oversize flat storage boxes housing two scrapbooks and newspapers. Except for three yearbooks belonging to Nellie Cowan, this collection contains only papers created and collected by Delphine Hurst. The collection contains paper ephemera such as tickets, programs, calling cards, and nametags as well as correspondence, newspapers, and memorabilia acquired during Hurst's time spent at Maury High School (Norfolk, Virginia) and the State Teachers College in Harrisonburg. As such, virtually all of the material contained within covers a time period from 1923 to 1931. Two items fall outside of this time period: one vinyl record of the Madison College Choir Concert of 1966 and a single photograph from a 1976 reunion of STC students featuring Delphine Hurst and Nellie Cowan alongside several other former classmates.\n","\nMuch of the correspondence contained within pertains directly to club, sorority, and academic activities; there is little personal (i.e. non-school related) correspondence. The bulk of the papers from Hurst's high school years (1924-1927) are contained in a green scrapbook. From her high school years, Hurst collected newspaper clippings covering Maury High School athletics, theater productions, debate club, and student academic activities. Hurst also collected postcards, brochures, and newspaper clippings pertaining to Camp Owaisa, a now-defunct YWCA camp in Virginia Beach. Loose and oversized items found within the front cover, back cover, and pages of the high school scrapbook were removed and placed within separate folders that are housed alongside the scrapbook in a flat storage box. \n","\nWhile attending the State Teachers College, Hurst collected dance cards from the Cotillion Club, score cards from the Debate Club, newspaper clippings covering the Glee Club, photos of campus and of classmates, notes and letters pertaining to student government, numerous playbills and programs from student theatrical productions, written feedback on her student teaching performance, letters relating to the Kappa Delta Pi honor society, and programs from university events such as alumnae banquets and the Wilson Hall dedication on 1931 (an event at which Hurst, the sitting senior class president, delivered an address). Most STC-related documents are secured within a blue scrapbook, while loose documents are organized by topic and housed within a single legal size half-Hollinger box. \n","\nThe Hurst Parsons Papers also contains several issues of The Breeze from the years 1930 and 1931, as well as issues of the Baltimore American (5/24/1931), Norfolk Ledger Dispatch (5/27/1931), Daily News-Record (5/16/1931), and a special insert from the Alexandria Gazette (10/1931) dedicated to the bicentennial of George Washington's birth. Newspapers are housed within a single flat storage box. The vinyl record of the Madison College Choir Concert of 1966 is housed with the newspapers.\n","\nRounding out the Delphine Hurst Parsons Papers are four yearbooks from Maury High School, entitled The Commodore, as well as three Schoolma'am yearbooks from STC. As indicated by signatures within the yearbooks, Delphine Hurst owned the following: The Commodore 1925, 1926, and 1927 as well as the Schoolma'am of 1931. Nellie Cowan owned The Commodore of 1927 and the Schoolma'am of 1928 and 1929. These yearbooks contain the signatures of their owners as well as well-wishes of classmates. Though few loose items were found within the pages of these yearbooks, some are of note, including a pamphlet by John W. Wayland entitled A Bird's-Eye View of the Shenandoah Valley with Map and a program from the State Teachers College commencement exercises of June 7, 1931.\n","Nellie Cowan's 1931  Schoolma'am  was removed from the collection due to lack of annotations and due to duplication elsewhere in Special Collections.","The copyright interests in this collection have been transferred to the James Madison University Special Collection Library.

In 1930 he moved to Washington, D.C., and he received law degree in 1935 from Georgetown University. He joined the ranks of the Federal Bureau of Investigation that same year. ","As an FBI agent, he received assignments to the Buffalo and Los Angeles field offices in the first few years of his career before returning to Washington in 1937 where he would serve in several different divisions. His work in Washington included the investigation of automobile thefts and kidnappings, as well as intelligence operations. He also recounts in the collection's oral history that, for a time, he was an administrative assistant to J. Edgar Hoover. In 1939, Lawler was appointed Special Agent in Charge of the Richmond field office, but in August of the following year, he was called back to Washington to assist with the organization of the agency's Special Intelligence Service. Lawler was assigned to the Special Agent in Charge post in Richmond once again in 1942, a position he would hold until his retirement in 1950. Lawler and his wife, who met and married in Richmond, had two daughters and two sons before their divorce in the mid-sixties.","Following his retirement from the Bureau, Lawler established a private legal practice and was engaged by the Union Life Insurance Company, later renamed the Interstate Mutual Fire Insurance Company, as a vice-president and general counsel. At the same time, Lawler also took on work for the newly created Central Intelligence Agency, organizing the Richmond-based Old Dominion Research Company, an entity used by the CIA for agent support and training.","Lawler was also an active member of the Richmond political scene. He served as a member of the Richmond City Council from 1956 to 1960, starting out by filling six months of Ed Haddock's unexpired term and was subsequently elected to two more terms. Other community roles he took on included serving as an alternate director of civil defense and as chairman of the city's Personnel Board, as well as holding seats on law enforcement advisory boards for the city and state. Lawler was also a dedicated member of the city's exclusive Commonwealth Club, particularly in his later years. ","On 31 December 1982, Lawler was found dead in his Riverside Drive home at the age of 74. Four young people had broken into Lawler's home, robbed him, and beaten him to death. John Ballard, was found guilty of the murder, and the other three were convicted on related charges.","The bulk of the collection consists of materials created or acquired by John Edward Lawler in the course of his professional life. The papers contain material for potential research in law enforcement, counter-espionage and intelligence, labor relations, law enforcement, and politics of the Richmond area. The papers are particularly rich in the areas of law enforcement and training. ","There is a great wealth of material from Lawler's career with the Federal Bureau of Investigation in Washington, D.C. and in Richmond. Materials include FBI office memoranda, printed publications, reports, Lawler's lesson plans, manuals, mimeographed training materials issued by the Milwaukee and Washington, D.C. police departments, clippings, and photographs. The content of these materials reflect Lawler's involvement with Bureau investigative and counter-espionage work, as well as anti-Communist activities, including the surveillance of Richmond resident Alice Burke, state secretary of the Communist party. In the original processing of the collection, an attempt was made not only to establish an easily used subject files but also to maintain what remained of Lawler's original file order in the papers. There are numerous mimeographed and printed documents in the series that were preserved because they were maintained in Lawler's working files and were likely used frequently by him for training purposes.

","The collection also includes materials documenting Lawler's life after his retirement from the FBI in 1950. The largest grouping of these materials consists of training materials for Virginia law enforcement as well as several files of materials documenting his active role in Richmond politics, particularly his time as a city council member.
