II. Photographs
13 box(es)
(5.75 linear feet)
II. Photographs includes black and white and color prints and negatives. The series is organized into five subseries based on Mellichamp's writing projects, in addition to a general subjects subseries of material unattached to a particular project: A. Senators from Georgia, B. "Georgia Heritage," C. "Georgia Heritage" manuscript photographs and captions, D. Georgia Historical Marker Project, and E. General Subjects. The prints and negatives were created from original images from various archival repositories, and negatives and prints, were taken by Mellichamp herself or a photographer she hired for use in her various writing projects. B."Georgia Heritage" contains the bulk of the photographic materials. But, Mellichamp probably gathered many of the photographs located in E. General Subject as part of her research for "Georgia Heritage." These photographs remained separate from the images for "Georgia Heritage" because Mellichamp chose not to include them in the manuscript or saved them for use in other projects. The items in this series are subdivided chronologically by writing project with Mellichamp's first book, Senators from Georgia preceding her subsequent project, "Georgia Heritage," which is further subdivided chronologically according to the pattern by which material was accumulated (rights and reproduction requests first, general images arranged by subject second, images and captions and lists of administrative notes third) followed by Georgia Historical Marker Project which is further divided alphabetically by county.

The manuscripts subseries is arranged alphabetically by title of article or book. It is important to note that Mellichamp's filing system was idiosyncratic. She filed materials alphabetically under one subject heading but also gathered similar materials under different headings. A. Correspondence

to write an anecdotal history of Georgia senators, titled Senators from Georgia and published in 1976. In 1977, Mellichamp began research for her next project, "Georgia Heritage" (also with Strode). Mellichamp and her publisher envisioned an anecdotal overview of people, events, and institutions in Georgia that included a variety of photographs and quickly grew to hundreds of pages and images. By 1983, Mellichamp, at the prompting of Strode, began efforts to trim the manuscript down to a manageable, publishable size and identify sections of the manuscript to market as individual articles or as kernels of other books. In the fall of 1984, Strode Publishing offices' burned and the business, which had been bought out by another firm, ceased publishing. Mellichamp continued working on drafts and other related projects until her death on October 11, 1988 but her sizable manuscript remained unpublished. During these writing projects, Mellichamp amassed an enormous collection of books, articles, news clippings, photographs, and ephemera relating to the history of individuals, places, and institutions in Georgia.
