Discovered in the mid-1800s, the coalfield was eventually mined in the 1860s, when local blacksmith Jordan Nelson started selling coal from his land. Cartographer Jedidiah Hotchkiss began boasting about the coalfield in his publications, and he engaged Isaiah A. Welch to survey the resources in the area.","In 1876, Hotchkiss had the coal exhibited at the Philadelphia Centennial Exposition by Thomas Graham, who banded several Philadelphia businessmen together to exploit the resources of the coalfield. They expanded the Norfolk \u0026 Western Railroad (later Norfolk \u0026 Western Railway) to transport coal out of the coalfield, established the Flat-Top Trust (later Flat-Top Coal Land Association) to manage land holdings, and formed the Southwest Virginia Improvement Company (later Pocahontas Colleries Company) to develop mining operations.","In 1882, the town of Pocahontas, Virginia, was founded to support the mining operations, and the first mine in the coalfield was opened to Pocahontas Seam #3 (now known as Pocahontas Mine No. 1 or Baby Mine). A number of competing mining and land companies developed in the 1880s around the Pocahontas Coalfield. John Cooper formed the Mill Creek Coal \u0026 Coke Company in 1884, J.P. Bowen founded the Booth-Bowen Coal \u0026 Coke Company, and William McQuail operated the Turkey Gap Coal \u0026 Coke Company. Jenkin Jones established the Pocahontas Consolidated Collieries Company, Inc. of West Virginia (later Pocahontas Fuel Co., Inc.), by merging the Pocahontas Colleries Company and other companies together in 1907.","In 1901, the Flat-Top Coal Land Association, a subsidiary of Norfolk \u0026 Western Railway, reorganized as the Pocahontas Coal \u0026 Coke Company of New Jersey. The next year, the Railway leased land to U.S. Steel in a deal granting it acreage to form the United States Coal \u0026 Coke Company at Gary, West Virginia. In 1939, Pocahontas Coal \u0026 Coke became Pocahontas Land Corporation, chartered in Virginia, and, in 1977, the company chartered the Pocahontas Kentucky Corporation (later Pocahontas Development Corporation). In 1982, Norfolk \u0026 Western merged with the Southern Railway to become Norfolk Southern.","In 1860, several Maryland coal operators merged their companies into the Consolidation Coal Company. The company began mining operations in West Virginia when it acquired the Fairmont Coal Company in 1903. After further expansion, Consolidation Coal merged with the Pittsburgh Coal Company into the Pittsburgh Consolidation Coal Company in 1945. In 1956, the company acquired the Pocahontas Fuel Co., Inc., and in 1991, DuPont Energy and RWE A.G. acquired and changed the company's name to CONSOL Energy, Inc.","Sources\n      Bailey, Kenneth R. \"Pocahontas Land Corporation.\" The West Virginia Encyclopedia.

Scanned rolls, II. Unscanned rolls and documents, III. Books, and IV. Ledgers. The scanned and unscanned rolls are primarily of mining maps and related oversized items, such as mechanical building and equipment drawings, plats, and topographic maps. The books and ledgers generally relate to mining surveys.","Series I. Scanned rolls, 1891-1992, contain 3475 maps in 261 boxes, totaling approximately 135 cu. ft. Most of these rolls are mining or mine survey maps, and when possible, the maps are identified with title, company, coalbed, mine name, county, state, USGS quadrangle, dates, and notes. Related scanned rolls are identified by CON number, and some related items are unscanned and identified in Series II. The items in this series have been scanned, and their digital file ids are the CON# (e.g. CON1_1 or CON3209) assigned by the DMME. Some maps also have OSM Doc, MSHA, and/or USBM numbers.","Please note: An inventory of the scanned rolls is available to view online; descriptions are currently in progress. Please contact Special Collections to request a copy of an image.","Series II. Unscanned rolls and documents, 1883-1997, contains 464 boxes, totaling approximately 360 cu. ft. Most rolls are mining and topo maps, mechanical and architectural drawings, and photographs that have not been scanned. Some rolls may be duplicates, very similar to, or of the same mine/area as scanned maps in Series I and are noted when possible by identifying the CON digital file number (e.g. \"similar to CON2501\" or \"see also CON153\").","Series III. Books, 1914-1995, contains 2940 vols. in 62 boxes, totaling 64.48 cu. ft. It consists of mainly field notebooks from mine surveys and some related papers for surveys. There are publications in boxes B61 and B62.","Series IV. Ledgers, 1916-1993, contains 42 boxes, totaling 45.02 cu. ft. It primarily consists of survey record books (not field notebooks).

Jenkin Jones established the Pocahontas Consolidated Collieries Company, Inc. of West Virginia (later Pocahontas Fuel Co., Inc.), by merging the Pocahontas Colleries Company and other companies together in 1907.","In 1901, the Flat-Top Coal Land Association, a subsidiary of Norfolk \u0026 Western Railway, reorganized as the Pocahontas Coal \u0026 Coke Company of New Jersey. The next year, the Railway leased land to U.S. Steel in a deal granting it acreage to form the United States Coal \u0026 Coke Company at Gary, West Virginia. In 1939, Pocahontas Coal \u0026 Coke became Pocahontas Land Corporation, chartered in Virginia, and, in 1977, the company chartered the Pocahontas Kentucky Corporation (later Pocahontas Development Corporation). In 1982, Norfolk \u0026 Western merged with the Southern Railway to become Norfolk Southern.","In 1860, several Maryland coal operators merged their companies into the Consolidation Coal Company. The company began mining operations in West Virginia when it acquired the Fairmont Coal Company in 1903. After further expansion, Consolidation Coal merged with the Pittsburgh Coal Company into the Pittsburgh Consolidation Coal Company in 1945. In 1956, the company acquired the Pocahontas Fuel Co., Inc., and in 1991, DuPont Energy and RWE A.G. acquired and changed the company's name to CONSOL Energy, Inc.","Sources\n      Bailey, Kenneth R. \"Pocahontas Land Corporation.\" The West Virginia Encyclopedia.

After the Smith-Lever Act of 1914 was passed, overall administration of extension, or demonstration, work was transferred to Virginia Polytechnic Institute (VPI), with Hampton Institute (later Hampton University) as a division initially serving Black communities. At that time, it became the Agricultural Extension Service, also called the Cooperative Extension Service. In 1930, Virginia State College (later Virginia State University (VSU)) took over the extension responsibilities of Hampton Institute.","In 1966, the Virginia General Assembly established the VPI Extension Division, which combined the Cooperative Extension Service, General Extension Division, State Technical Services, and Continuing Education Center. After passage of the 1977 U. S. Farm Bill, VSU's extension program became an equal partner to VT's program, rather than a division reporting to VT. In 1995, the Division became the Virginia Cooperative Extension and Agricultural Experiment Station Division, often shortened to the Virginia Cooperative Extension (VCE), still operated jointly by VT and VSU today.\"","The guide to the Records of the Virginia Cooperative Extension by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 (https://creativecommons.org/share-your- work/public-domain/cc0/).","Audiovisual materials require special equipment to access.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

On March 20, he\n         wrote that he arrived at his assigned post and was living in a\n         private home and described life there. His letter of July 20,\n         1943 mentioned that the foods were similar, such as new\n         potatoes, beans, tomatoes, corn, chicken, and watermelon. On\n         July 31, 1944, he has heard good news and broadcasts about the\n         Germans and Japanese.

He wrote, from \n         Miami Beach, Florida, on May 18, 1945,\n         that the war was over, that he has finished processing and is\n         awaiting a new assignment, that some materials are being\n         released, such as tires, and that there is a possibility of an\n         increase in gas allowance. During June through August 1945, he\n         wrote from \n         Stuttgart, Arkansas, concerning work and\n         continuing studies under the G.I. Bill.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eCamp Pickett, Virginia\u003c/geogname\u003e, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWalt Disney\u003c/persname\u003eand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eItaly\u003c/geogname\u003e. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNorth Africa\u003c/geogname\u003e, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         \u003cgeogname\u003ePacific\u003c/geogname\u003e; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eRome\u003c/geogname\u003ein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNaples\u003c/geogname\u003efor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944.

There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWalt Disney\u003c/persname\u003eand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10).

There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNaples\u003c/geogname\u003efor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

He wrote, from \n         Miami Beach, Florida, on May 18, 1945,\n         that the war was over, that he has finished processing and is\n         awaiting a new assignment, that some materials are being\n         released, such as tires, and that there is a possibility of an\n         increase in gas allowance. During June through August 1945, he\n         wrote from \n         Stuttgart, Arkansas, concerning work and\n         continuing studies under the G.I. Bill.

On February 27, 1942, he wrote about camp life\n         [probably in North Africa]. During October through December\n         1942, he was at \n         Camp Pickett, Virginia, the location of\n         new headquarters. During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         Walt Disneyand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         Italy. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         North Africa, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         Pacific; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         Romein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         Naplesfor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.","Letters, 1926-1947, from \n         Edwin Hanson Sanders(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         Shipton Kincannon Curran Sanders(his\n         mother) to \n         William E.

During 1943, he wrote from North Africa.\n         There are letters revealing his work in the supply section and\n         with the Special Services branch, planning athletic and\n         entertainment programs, and commenting on Arab lifestyles\n         (March 16); mentioning news of a friend \"Jean,\" who had her\n         picture taken with \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWalt Disney\u003c/persname\u003eand that two Virginia medical\n         units are nearby (April 24); discussing organizational changes\n         and inquiring about rationing at home (May 17); referring to\n         his teaching school, a class for 2nd lieutenants and enlisted\n         men (July 9); remarking that recent developments make it\n         harder to identify friend or enemy (October 3); and, relating\n         news of the death of young Graham, son of Dave and Verna and\n         the sale of the Graham farm (October 3, November 10). From\n         November 1943 until October 30, 1945, he was in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eItaly\u003c/geogname\u003e. On November 27, 1943, he wrote,\n         after arriving, that the people and the country were quite\n         different than in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNorth Africa\u003c/geogname\u003e, that fruits and nuts were\n         plentiful but that there was a shortage of other foods, that\n         the land was more fertile but that the destruction greater,\n         and that the people were easier to talk to than the French. On\n         May 29, 1944, he reported that he was doing special work away\n         from his unit and having a chance to see more of the country.\n         By June 23, 1944, he returned to his unit and found many\n         changes, which he also mentioned in his letter of August 18,\n         1944. In his letter of September 19, 1944, he speculated as to\n         when the war would be over and whether they would go to the \n         \u003cgeogname\u003ePacific\u003c/geogname\u003e; mentioned casting his vote for\n         Roosevelt; and being sent to \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eRome\u003c/geogname\u003ein charge of a group of men going\n         there to rest, where he got the chance to tour certain points\n         of interest. There are several letters following that discuss\n         general news about the war and his family at home. On May 9,\n         1945, he was anxious to hear about the point system and\n         expected to remain in \n         \u003cgeogname\u003eNaples\u003c/geogname\u003efor six or eight months. And, on\n         May 25, he wrote that service troops would be the last to\n         return home. On July 12, 1945, he wrote that they are now\n         preparing equipment for the East, that there were 3,000\n         soldiers, civilians, and POWs in one shop, and that he was now\n         executive officer. Through the end of 1945, his letters are\n         filled with hopes of returning home. There is also a letter,\n         January 31, 1947, concerning a training session re: crude\n         petroleum.\u003c/p\u003e\n      ","\u003cp\u003eLetters, 1926-1947, from \n         \u003cpersname\u003eEdwin Hanson Sanders\u003c/persname\u003e(1871-1948), and\n         related correspondence, discuss family and business matters.\n         There is a letter, April 5, 1929, from \n         \u003cpersname\u003eShipton Kincannon Curran Sanders\u003c/persname\u003e(his\n         mother) to \n         \u003cpersname\u003eWilliam E.
