593. TAYLOE FAMILY PAPERS
ca. 300 items, 1830-93
A group of business and family letters. Much of the correspondence is
between Henry A. Tayloe in Alabama and his
brother Benjamin Ogle Tayloe in Virginia and centers around the business of getting
Virginia slaves to Alabama. There are many accounts of sales and prices. Other
references to slaves and black farmhands after the war fill these letters.
(Acc. 38-630, 5854)
