Clarence L. Jordan papers

Jordan, Clarence |
|
|
Dates: |
1920-1970 |
|
|
Contents: |
The collection consists of letters, pictures, clippings, manuscripts, programs, printed materials, notes, file cards, and
other materials concerning the life, career, and writings of the late Dr. Clarence Leonard Jordan, founder of Koinonia Farms,
an agricultural missionary enterprise, and inter-racial community. The early letters, largely from Clarence Jordan to his
mother, are most revealing as to the character of the man. The many clippings and printed materials about Clarence Jordan
and Koinonia also give insight into the community life, and the programs indicate the wide demand for Dr. Jordan as a speaker.
The collection also includes the manuscripts, both written and typed, with annotations and/or corrections and revisions of
many of Dr. Jordan's writings, particularly the Cotton Patch versions of the Gospels.
The collection is arranged into folders but for the most part it has been described at container level.
