RUFFIN AND MEADE FAMILY PAPERS, #642, 1796-1906

Correspondence, mostly of women, and miscellaneous papers of the Meade family of Prince George County and the Ruffin family of Hanover County, Virginia. Letters express strong opinions on the war and often mention local instances of slave resistance. Included are descriptions of the British seizure of ships near Rossgill, Virginia, and the exodus of many local slaves to the British (1814); the public whipping of slaves in Prince George County, designed to deter an insurrection (1861); a Virginia African American who supported his former mistress financially after her son was shot by another African American (1866); and a fever which killed hundreds of African Americans in Alabama (1866). Partial microfilm available.
