Contents: |
This collection documents the life of William H. (Bill) Burson (1928-1997) and the various positions he held under Senator
Herman Talmadge; Governors Carl Sanders, Lester Maddox, and Jimmy Carter; and Lieutenant Governor Zell Miller. Burson graduated
from the University of Georgia with a BA in Journalism in 1948 and served as a war correspondent in the Korean War. After
the war, Burson served as an aide to Senator Herman Talmadge and later to Governor Carl Sanders. In 1967, the newly elected
governor, Lester Maddox, appointed him to be director of the Georgia Department of Family and Children Services. Over the
next three years Burson fought a "War on Hunger" attempting to create food stamps programs across Georgia. Burson was elected
as State Treasurer in 1970 and campaigned for the U.S. Senate in 1972. After losing the senatorial campaign, Burson worked
as a lobbyist for business interests in the Southeast. In 1975, he became Zell Miller's administrative and special assistant,
a position he held until his retirement in 1991. The collection is comprised primarily of twenty-five scrapbooks that detail
Burson's life and career from 1933 to 1991. Also included are photographs, editorial cartoons, books, certificates, and plaques.

Contents: |
The Richard B. Russell, Jr. Collection contains 465 pieces of audiovisual material. Although Russell was not known for extensive
media appearances, early on he did make use of radio. These appearances, which began on radio in 1930, include not only campaign
related activities but also many talk shows, award presentations, Senate Recording Studio releases (view playlist of digitized
Senate Recording Studio films), news conferences, and turning points in Russell's career. In addition, Russell was often sent
material of interest in audiovisual form by constituents and political associates. The most comprehensive of these materials,
WSB-TV's "Richard B. Russell: Georgia Giant," contains numerous hours of interviews (edited and unedited) with Russell and
several historical background films that went into the making of the 3-hour documentary. Digitized audiovisual materials from
this collection are available for viewing on the Russell Library Audiovisual account on YouTube.

Contents: |
The Lucy Hargrett Draper Center and Archives for the Study of the Rights of Women in History and Law is comprised of primary
and secondary materials in a variety of formats with an emphasis on documenting women's rights, especially the United States
and British Women's Suffrage Movements (1840-1920). The focus of the collection is on leading figures such as Susan B. Anthony,
Clara Barton, Carrie Chapman Catt, Julia Ward Howe, Mary Livermore, Lucretia Mott, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Lucy Stone, Emmeline
Pankhurst and her daughter Sylvia, including correspondence and photographs. Other materials relate to the suffrage movement
in the United States, such as postcards, photographs, government documents and periodicals, record activities at the state,
regional, and national levels, both for and against suffrage.
In addition, supporting materials recognize some of the leaders of the abolition movement, including Frederick Douglass, Harriet
Tubman, and Sojourner Truth, each of whom spoke up on behalf of women's rights as well as against slavery. Moreover, to place
the suffrage materials in historical context the collection also includes pre-suffrage treatise on women's rights and legal
documents dating to the 16th century as well as materials related to post-suffrage efforts (1921-2000) to pass the ERA, the
formation of N.O.W., the women's liberation movement, and the Pro-Choice movement.

Dates: |

|
|
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.
