Howell Cobb family papers

Dates: |
1793-1932 |
|
| |
Contents: |
The collection consists of papers of Howell Cobb and the Cobb family from 1793 to 1932. The bulk of the collection is correspondence,
mostly addressed to Howell Cobb, dating from 1839 to 1868. There is a large amount of correspondence between Howell Cobb,
his wife Mary Ann Lamar, and her brother John B. Lamar. The letters discuss politics in both Georgia and the United States,
the Confederate States of America including its formation and administration, and information on Cobb's business interests,
especially his plantations. After Cobb's death in 1868, the remainder of the correspondence is between other family members
including John A. Cobb, Howell Cobb, Jr., Alexander Erwin, and Mary Erwin discussing family and social news, business interests,
and legal cases. While the correspondence primarily documents the Cobb, Lamar, Erwin, and Barrow faimilies, there is also
a large amount of correspondence from the Jackson, Hull, Rootes, Lumpkin, King, Pope, Rutherford, Prince, and Nisbet families.
The earliest material includes indentures and land grants (1793-1829) relating to Zachariah Lamar's business interests.
The clippings do not focus on Howell Cobb, with the very rare exception. These seem to have been donated by family but are
very general in nature. The journals and diaries are from family members and friends.

Contents: |
The collection consists of papers of the Rev. Charles Colcock Jones family of Liberty County, Georgia from ca. 1749-1909.
The early letters (1850-1861) are between Charles Colcock Jones and Mary Jones in Liberty County, Georgia and their son, Charles
Jr., while at school in Princeton and Harvard and later in Savannah (Ga.) where he set up his law practice. The letters discuss
social and family life, plantation life, politics and government, religious philosophies, and events leading up to the Civil
War. From 1861-1865, Charles Jr.'s letters chronicle his involvement as an officer in the Chatham Artillery stationed along
the Georgia coast near Savannah, then Charleston and James Island (S.C.), and Jacksonville (Fla.). After the war, the personal
correspondence is mainly between Charles Jr., his mother Mary Jones, his wife Eva Eve Jones, and his brother Joseph Jones.
There is also a smattering of correspondence regarding his law practice.
The collection also contains two volumes of letters Eva Eve Jones wrote to family describing her travels through Europe in
1879, manuscripts of Charles Jr.'s writings on Georgia history, Charles Jr.'s speeches including an 1861 speech to the Chatham
Artillery, and addresses (1886-1892) he gave before the Confederate Survivors Association. Also included is a copy of the
original manuscript for William Bartram's book Observations on the Creek and Cherokee Indians attributed to Ephraim G. Sqier
(1821-1888). The manuscript contains tracings of Bartram's drawing of prehistoric mounds, Creek towns, and Cherokee and Creek
structures not found in the published work.
