Collection Description

Historical Note

The Branch family resided in Clarke, Oconee, and Greene counties. William Scott Branch received his land in the lottery, owning a plantation. The Branch family mainly resided in Oconee County from the mid-1800s to late 1900s. The donor, Vivian Branch Phillips, worked as a librarian for the University of Georgia for 29 years, born in 1915 in Oconee County, Georgia in the house where she later lived with her husband, James W. Phillips, a farmer and former civilian employee with the Army Corps of Engineers.

Vivian's father, Otho M. Branch, was a cotton farmer who built Planters Gin Co. in Bishop, Georgia. His father, Marcellus L. Branch was also a farmer who developed and sold a variety of cotton called Branch's Long Shank Cotton.

Scope and Content

The collection consists of material relating to the Branch Family of Oconee County, Georgia and date from around 1836-1986. Papers relating to Vivian B. Phillips and her husband includes personal correspondence and farm business papers of her parents.

Of special note is a bill of sale of the property of William Scott Branch and includes a list of enslave people by name, purchaser, and price of each (See box 82, folder 2).
