He graduated from Virginia Tech in 1910 with a degree in applied chemistry. In 1918, Aaron was living in City Point, Virginia, where he married Emily Graves Bland (1890-1957) and was employed as an assistant chief chemist. By 1929, Aaron was living in Wilmington, Delaware. In 1935, he was living in Penns Grove, New Jersey and was working as a chemist for DuPont. John H. Aaron died in Wilmington, Delaware on December 5, 1953. He was buried in Blandford Cemetery, Petersburg, Virginia.","Jacob Carr Aaron, younger brother of John Henry Aaron, was born in 1894. Aaron attended officer training school at the beginning of World War I and served in the infantry throughout the war. In 1920, he graduated from Virginia Tech with a degree in chemical engineering. The census of that year found him living with his parents in Bristol, Virginia and working as a bookkeeper. He married Glenna King in 1921. Still in Bristol in 1935, he was employed as secretary-treasurer of Morley Bros. \u0026 Company, a produce distribution business. Aaron later became the company's manager and continued in that position until 1958, when the company dissolved. He later worked as secretary of Hulsey Flooring Service. Jacob C. Aaron died in February, 1971. ","Harry Bertram Aaron, another son of Christopher and Laura Giles Aaron, was born in 1895.  In 1917, Aaron graduated from the Artillery Training School and as a member of the Artillery Reserve Corps was immediately assigned to duty in France.  He graduated from Virginia Tech in 1919 with a degree in mining engineering. The 1920 census places him in the Bristol, Virginia home of his parents, with no occupation. The 1930 census shows him still living in the home of his parents and the proprietor of a filling station. Aaron was still in Bristol as of 1935 and was working as a statistical clerk for the National Reemployment Service. He died before 1971.","The guide to the Aaron Family Collection by Special Collections and University Archives, Virginia Tech, is licensed under a CC0 ( https://creativecommons.org/share-your-work/public-domain/cc0/ ).","The processing, arrangement, and description of the Aaron Family Collection commenced and was completed in June, 2011.","This collection contains college memorabilia of John H., Jacob C., and Harry B.

Dated 1947, the diary bears advertising of Arcadian Nitrate of Soda and was likely distributed as a business promotion. In lengthy, semi-illegible entries of brief sentences, Drinkard chronicles the day's minutiae, including notes on the weather, appointments, news of family and acquaintances, personal activities, business of the Virginia Agricultural Experiment Station, and events on campus and in Blacksburg, Virginia. Two typical entries: \"May 28: clear \u0026 warmer. To office at 7:25 a.m. Nelson Price Dr. Wingard has hay fever. Dr. Young. Mr. B. O. Reynolds, Examiner from office of Experiment Stations, will be here on May 28 to June 7 for the annual examination of the work of this Experiment Station. Prepared forms requesting Departments to prepare their programs of work for fiscal year 1947-1948. Dr. Wingard. Dr. [DeLury?] says he is going back to Canada on July 1. I went with Kincaid \u0026 Mr. Reynolds to Whitethorne Farm and we returned at 5 p. m. A group of men from T. V. A. Forestry Dept. came by to see Dr. Young. I hear that Mr. R.

Rode down with Nelson Price. Mrs. Green is ill. Dean Price re alumni meeting tonight; I will be out of town. The question is World War Memorial II. Fog at 9:00 a. m.

F. Massey, was born in Albemarle County, Virginia in 1889. After graduating from North Carolina State University in 1909, the younger Massey studied in Florida and Chicago. Meanwhile, he also served as an instructor of botany at Clemson University from 1910 to 1913, then as assistant botanist  for the Alabama Agricultural Experiment Station from 1913 to 1918. In the latter year, Massey was hired by Virginia Polytechnic Institute as a bacteriologist in the school's botany department. He would earn his master's degree at VPI in 1928. In addition to his duties as an instructor, which included teaching all bacteriology courses, Massey held an appointment on the research staff of the Agricultural Experiment Station. In 1935, Massey became botanist for the Virginia Cooperative Wildlife Research Unit, a position that included instruction and that he would hold until retirement. Massey is also credited with establishing the university's herbarium, depositing within it more than 25,000 specimens, and was an instrumental force in the creation of the Mountain Lake Biological Station. Arthur Ballard Massey retired in 1959 and died in 1981.","The guide to the Arthur B.

Massey Papers, Ms1984-171,  also at Virginia Tech Special Collections and University Archives.","This collection contains papers of Arthur Ballard Massey, a botanist at Virginia Tech from 1918 to 1959. Included are materials relating to Massey's research and instruction. The collection contains a small set of correspondence and a notebook full of observations made by Massey while in the area of Clemson University, as well as several studies and essays written by him. Among these are pieces on identification of evergreens, wild flower conservation, livestock poisoning, and trees of the Virginia Tech campus. Also among Massey's writings are working copies of three publications: \"Legumes in Virginia,\" \"Gramineae in Virginia,\" and \"Grass Identification.\" Several issues of   Virginia Wildlife  housed within the collection also contain pieces by Massey.","The collection also includes numerous laboratory course outlines from Alabama Polytechnic Institute and a number of uncredited notes and bibliographies, including a piece titled \"Plant Suggestions for Food Patches on V.P.I. Farm and at Mt.

","Also found within the collection is a large set of photographs of trees on the Virginia Tech campus, taken in 1902. (Descriptions for the individual photos may be found in a separate folder within the collection.)  The collection also contains several photos of tree removal during the construction of the Alumni Mall in 1950, and a few campus scenes from the 1920s. A small set of miscellaneous printed materials completes the collection and includes, among other items, a 1910 University of Florida promotional booklet and an article about botanist Thomas Walter.","The copyright status of this collection is unknown.
