Edward L. Stone/Borderland Coal Company Papers 1895-1937

These papers fill 455 special four-inch Hollinger storage boxes (ca. 150 linear feet) and span the years 1895-1937. There are three major series: Edward L. Stone's papers re his personal life and diversified business, professional, and civic concerns; papers concerned with his principal business, the Stone Printing and Manufacturing Company of Roanoke, Virginia; and those papers concerned with the Borderland Coal Company of West Virginia and Kentucky of which Stone was the principal officer for many years. Because these series basically are composed of Stone's personal papers, and because there are interrelationships between material in one series and that in another, the series have been maintained in the boxes in the order in which they were found.

Content Warning

ARVAS is an aggregator of archival resources. ARVAS does not have control of the descriptive language used in our members’ finding aids.

Finding aids may contain historical terms and phrases, reflecting the shared attitudes and values of the community from which they were collected, but are offensive to modern readers. These include demeaning and dehumanizing references to race, ethnicity, and nationality; enslaved or free status; physical or mental ability; religion; sex; and sexual orientation and gender identity.

Many institutions and organizations are in the process of reviewing and revising their descriptive language, with the intent to describe materials in more humanizing, inclusive, and harm-reductive ways. As members revise their descriptive language, their changes will eventually be reflected in their ARVAS finding aids.
