1969rif. 0010041Madison Georgia. Good with no dust jacket. 1969. Hardcover. On offer is a 1969-1970 American diary from 71-year-old Florida Lamar Poullain Campbell Prior of Madison Georgia. Prior was the descendant of the Poullain and Lamar families who have called Georgia home since the early 1700s. Prior was born in Madison in 1898 and lived her life in that community. She married Walter Truman Prior and had a daughter named Florida C. Prior Jr. Prior passed away in 1991 at the age of 93. Although her name is not inscribed on the book context and the individuals named in her entries point to Priors identity. This diary was printed in 1925 but entries were sporadically made between 1969 and 1970. Prior's writing paints a detailed picture of life in the American South at this time. Personal relationships were very important to Prior and her entries are replete with references to family and friends. She also describes the social events that she participates in and the simple pleasures she experiences in her daily life. "Roy M. Prior passed away around 6: 00 AM. Today. He was my sweet and true friend. We will miss him. Ruth has stayed with us some during his illness and Flo & I have enjoyed being with her" April 11. "Today Florida C Prior Jr & Myself watched astronauts Neil Armstrong & Edwin Aldrin Jr. Walk on the moon & heard Pres. Nixon talk to them from Washington and heard their reply to him. UNBELIEVABLE" July 20. "Claire Stovall Inez W. Kroger Georgia Mallory Marguerite Little Helen de Beaugrine Fanny Harris & Ruth Attaway had lunch with me at Ye Olde Colonial Restaurant. We missed Martha Rhoades & Sara Knight who could not be with us. I enjoyed these sweet friends" July 25. "Mell Burgess Paine invited Flo & I to come to Decater for the day & to go to new S. DeKalb Richs. We took morning train for Atlanta -- first time I have been on this train in over 45 years. It was a great experience" August 20. "Elizabeth Cochran Prior & Roy Prior were married this afternoon at the Apalachee Baptist Church. Martha & Paul Rhoades went with Flo & me. It was very sweet" November 8. The diary measures 7 inches by 5 inches contains 183 pages and is approximately 20 percent complete. The cover binding and pages are all in good condition and the handwriting is quite legible. This small diary offers an interesting grouping of family and friendship links that can flesh out genealogical lines in this historic community and county in Georgia. It also offers insight into life in the South at a time when Americans were landing on the moon and experiencing major social upheaval. ; Manuscripts; 7" x 5"; 183 pages; Keywords: Florida Campbell Prior; Lamar; Lamer; Madison Oaks Inn; 766 East Avenue; Poullain Heights; Morgan County; American South; Georgia; Madison; Historic; The South; Scull Shoals; Antoinne Poullain; Rebecca Lamar; Sarah Poullain Campbell; Thomas Poullain; Ye Olde Colonial Restaurant; Apalachee Baptist Church; Moon Landing; Moon Walk; Neil Armstrong; Edwin Aldrin Jr; Buzz Aldrin; AMERICANA; HANDWRITTEN; MANUSCRIPT; DOCUMENT; LETTER; AUTOGRAPH; WRITER; HAND WRITTEN; DOCUMENTS; SIGNED; LETTERS; MANUSCRIPTS; DIARY; DIARIES; JOURNALS; PERSONAL HISTORY; SOCIAL HISTORY; HISTORICAL; HOLOGRAPH; WRITERS; AUTOGRAPHS; PERSONAL; MEMOIR; MEMORIAL; ANTIQUITÉ CONTRAT; VÉLIN; DOCUMENT; MANUSCRIT; PAPIER ANTIKE; BRIEF; PERGAMENT; DOKUMENT; MANUSKRIPT; PAPIER OGGETTO D'ANTIQUARIATO; ATTO; VELINA; DOCUMENTO; MANOSCRITTO; CARTA ANTIGÜEDAD; HECHO; VITELA; DOCUMENTO; MANUSCRITO; PAPEL . hardcover
1872rif. 31647Tallahassee: Charles H. Walton State Printer 1872. Stitched untrimmed and uncut. 350 2 blanks 76 pp. Except for a spotted title page which is chipped at the blank corners a clean Very Good copy. An informative Journal recounting Floridians' resistance to Radical Reconstruction. Governor Harrison Reed's Message addresses ongoing disturbances and "fatal and disgraceful violence. Nine-tenths of the suffering induced has fallen upon Republicans and mainly upon colored citizens-- giving unerring evidence that these excesses have been strongly tinctured by if they have not entirely originated in political prejudice." Many murders and disruptions had occurred in Calhoun and Jackson Counties forcing citizens to flee their homes and seek shelter in other parts of the State. A Committee of Five was appointed "to examine into the cause of said murders and to ascertain why the perpetrators have not been brought to justice." The Committee concluded that "there exists an organized band whose object is to resist the laws and who are the supposed authors of the many murders and outrages committed in the county." Threats of violence and a "reign of terror" had deterred witnesses from coming forward. In Jackson County "no less than one hundred and eighty -four murders fifteen of the number being women and children and almost the entire number being colored people brutally assassinated by this band of outlaws for daring to think for themselves." Similar outrages occurred in Lafayette and other counties. Governor Reed Florida's governor from 1868-73 faced impeachment charges from this Assembly as he had in 1868 and 1870. He was later charged in sixteen Articles with illegally issuing state bonds embezzlement and bribery. The charges were dismissed. The Assembly treated other matters of government including special elections marred by violence; "an act to incorporate Brown's Theological Institute" now Edward Waters College founded in 1866 to educate former slaves and considered the oldest historically black college in Florida. Senate Bill No 82 "to be entitled an act to incorporate the Buckingham Smith Asylum for the colored people of St. Augustine" was passed. Charles H. Walton, State Printer unknown

A rare coastal survey of the St. Johns River near Orlando with an inset map of the river continuation in the bottom left corner. Established by President Thomas Jefferson in 1807 as the Survey of the Coast the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey was the United States' first civilian scientific agency. This agency has followed its mission to survey the U.S. coastline create nautical charts of the coast and help increase maritime safety since its founding and has often played fascinating roles in significant chapters of U.S. history. It served in all theaters of the Civil War in the service of the Union Army and Navy pioneered acoustic exploration in the wake of the sinking of the Titanic and during WWI it worked to detect enemy submarines. In addition this agency worked to survey and produce detailed maps and renderings of the U.S. coast. These nautical survey maps commonly referred to as "T-sheets" provide fascinating insights into the history of the United States coastline which has and will continue to shift. These maps are the most important data source for understanding the physical and ecological characteristics of the U.S. shoreline. The present map is a highly detailed and accurate sea chart of the St Johns River and an important historical view of a developing Florida.

1858rif. 4106Jacksonville Fl: March 15 1858. Very good plus. 4pp. on a single folded sheet. Old mailing folds. An informative dispatch from antebellum Florida from A.C Scranton to "Friend Barton" in 1858. In his letter Scranton reports that despite some problems he is enjoying southern people and general life in Florida: "The people generally in the south are very kind & hospitibal but I need hardly to tell you that Florida has got some hard times as every new state or Territory has but thare is a more healthy Emigration coming in every year I have been fortunate anough to find some Northern people here which makes it seam a little more like home to me. I am boarding with a family from Georgia whome I like first rate & I do just as I would at home so that things are quite pleasant here considering I am amongst strangers." He then provides information on Jacksonville and then two disasters that hit his adopted hometown: "Jacksonville is the largest place in Florida & had at one time about 3000 inhabitants it is not as large as it was once some three years ago it was visited by a very destructive fire & burned nearly half of the town. Last summer there was some kind of Fever here that almost prostrated the place some called it the Yellow Fever & some the African but none could tell for certin.about a hundred & fifteen or twenty that died here in 3 months & a grate many left the town nearly all the stors wer closed not a sound of a hammer was to be heard. When cold weather came it stoped the sickness and it seams quite lively now. It has been for many years a grate resort in the winter season for invaleds but on account of the sickness last summer thare are but few this winter if it continus healthy this summer the place will revive but if not it will kill it entirely." Scranton also discusses the transportation system that served Jacksonville and the recent winding down of the Seminole Wars: "It is situated on the Johns River about 23 miles from the mouth and is connected with Charleston & Savana by a regular line of steamers that runs up the river a hundred miles to a place called Platka whare Emigrants land & then travel by land to the interior to settle the country thare is a railroad building from this place to Tallahasse the capital of the state a distance of a hundred & eighty miles which wen completed will be a little help to this place. There is also another in progress from Fernandina a new town that lays in the North East corner of the state to a place called cedar keys on the gulf side whare they intend to carry the US mail direct from New Orleans to New York insted of going round by Key west & will shorten the time considerable. Florida has cost Uncle Sam a large some of money.the government.will make a treaty with them & send them into the Indian Territory & then close the Indian war in Florida." Almost all of the Seminoles remaining in Florida relocated to Indian Territory in the year this letter was written.
