Contents: |
The collection consists of books, papers, correspondence, personal narratives, propaganda material, photographs, and artifacts
contributed by soldiers and families who have served with or are connected with soldiers who served with the Wolfhounds.
The bulk of the collection centers on the 27th Infantry Regiment in World War II and the Korean War. There are some materials
on Siberia and Vietnam and times in between, but the majority focus on the Pacific and Korea.
There are a significant number of documents and artifacts about the Wolfhound Pack Historical Society, anniversaries, reunions,
and relationships between veterans after their service.
There is a small but well-maintained collection of items and documents about the Holy Family Home in Japan.
There are a considerable number of books in the collection. Many are about the 27th Infantry Regiment, though some are on
more general topics, such as military campaigns and entire wars. Some are autobiographies or biographies; many are written
by Wolfhound veterans. The videos in the collection are similar. These are often interviews of Wolfhounds and videos about
certain military events.
The artifacts are original and similar attire and items from Wolfhounds in their military service.
There is a small assortment of unprocessed papers and artifacts that are primarily unarranged. These still focus on the 27th
Infantry Regiment. Most concentrate on the Wolfhounds in the Korean War.

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.
