 Title:  "WAIT AND HOPE": THE DIARY OF LOUISA H. A. MINOR  
 Published:  2005 
 Subjects:  University of Virginia Library, Text collection | UVA-LIB-Text 
 Description: Loss is a constant theme in Louisa's Diary in both her personal life and that of the slaveholding South. Louisa's losses climax with Southern defeat in April 1865 and four rapid personal tragedies in January/February, 1866: the exit of all but a handful of the freed Pantops slaves; the out of wedlock pregnancy of her "sister," Nannie Anderson by their first cousin, David Anderson; the death of Eliza Macmurdo, the eldest Anderson grandchild; the death of Louisa's Mammy Eliza, mother of Nannie and grandmother of Eliza.
