v vi INTRODUCTION

The creation of history as a scholarly discipline has always depended on the discovery, preservation, and accessibility of primary sources. Some of the leading figures in the first generation of academic historians in the spent much of their time and energy on this endeavor and in so doing made possible the work of their colleagues who wrote monographs and general histories. The inventions of microfilm and photocopying have vastly improved access to such sources. At any given time the prevailing conceptions of what is significant in the past will determine which sources are sought and valued. When politics and diplomacy are the center of historians’ concern, government documents, treaties, newspapers, and correspondence of political leaders and diplomats will be collected and made accessible. When intellectual history is ascendant, the works of philosophers and reflective thinkers will be studied, analyzed, and discussed. Economic historians will look for records of trade, evidence of price fluctuations, conditions of labor, and other kinds of data originally collected for business purposes. The propensity of modern governments to collect statistics has made possible whole new fields for historical analysis. In our own time social historians have flourished, and for them evidence of how people of all kinds have lived, felt, thought, and behaved is a central concern. Private diaries and personal letters are valued for the light they throw on what French historians label the mentalité of a particular time and place. The fact that such documents were usually created only for the writer, or for a friend or relative, gives them an immediacy not often found in other kinds of records. At best the writers tell us—directly or by implication—what they think and feel and do. Even the language and the allusions in such spontaneous expression are useful to the historian, whose inferences might surprise the writer could she know what was being made of her words. This microfilm series focuses on a particular group (women) in a particular place (the South) in a particular time (the nineteenth century). The fact that many of these documents exist is a tribute to the work of several generations of staff members at the leading archives of the South such as the Southern Historical Collection at Chapel Hill, North Carolina; the William R. Perkins Library at Duke University; the Alderman Library at the ; the South Caroliniana Library; the Lower Mississippi Valley Collection, State University; the Swem Library at the College of William and Mary, ; and several state historical societies. The legend of Southern Historical Collection founder J. G. DeRoulhac Hamilton who, in his effort to preserve the evidence of the southern past, traveled about in his Model A Ford knocking on doors, asking people to look in their attics and cellars for material, is well known. The result of his labors and those of his counterparts and successors is a vast collection that includes thousands of letters from women of all ages and hundreds of diaries or diary fragments. Only a small part of this material has been studied by professional historians. Some family collections cover decades, even several generations. Others are fragmentary: diaries begun in moments of enthusiasm and shortly abandoned; letters sporadically saved.

vii Introduction

The years of the Civil War are particularly well documented, since many women were convinced that they were living through momentous historical events of which they should make a record. After the war ended and the “new South” began to take shape, other women wrote memoirs for their children and grandchildren, hoping to preserve forever their memories of a better time “before the war” or to record the sacrifices and heroism they had witnessed. The United Daughters of the Confederacy made a special effort to persuade women to record their wartime memories. In the best of circumstances—and each collection included in this edition was chosen precisely with this consideration in mind—the collections preserve the voices of one or more women through letters or diaries that cover many years. Although women’s letters to soldiers were often lost in the mud and carnage of battlefields, soldiers’ letters were treasured and have survived in abundance. If it is true, as Virginia Woolf once wrote, that in writing a letter one tries to reflect something of the recipient, then these letters, too, may add to our understanding of the lives of women and families.1 Moreover so many of the soldiers’ letters respond to women’s questions, give hints or instructions on managing property, and allude to family life and routine at home, that they can be used to draw valid inferences about the activities of their female correspondents, even when the woman’s side of the correspondence is altogether lost. Seen through women’s eyes, nineteenth-century southern social history takes on new dimensions. Subjects that were of only passing interest when historians depended on documents created by men now move to center stage. Women’s letters dwell heavily on illness, pregnancy, and childbirth. From them we can learn what it is like to live in a society in which very few diseases are well understood, in which death is common in all age groups, and in which infant mortality is an accepted fact of life. A woman of forty-three, writing in 1851, observed that her father, mother, four sisters, three brothers, and two infants were all dead, and except for her father, none had reached the age of thirty-six.2 Slavery has been a central concern of southern historians, generally from the white male perspective. Seen through the eyes of plantation mistresses, the peculiar institution becomes even more complex. We can observe a few women searching their souls about the morality of the institution, and many more complaining bitterly about the practical burdens it places upon them. We can find mothers worrying about the temptations slave life offers to husbands and sons—and even occasionally expressing sympathy for the vulnerability of slave women. Some claim to be opposed to the institution but do not take any steps to free their own slaves. Others simply agonize. There is, unfortunately, no countervailing written record to enable us to see the relationship from the slaves’ point of view. Until late in the century the word feminism did not exist, and in the South “women’s rights” were often identified with the hated antislavery movement. “Strong-minded woman” was a term of anathema. Even so we find antebellum southern women in their most private moments wondering why men’s lives are so much less burdened than their own and why it is always they who must, as one woman wrote, provide the ladder on which a man may climb to heaven.

early in the nineteenth century women’s letters sometimes dwelt on the puzzling questions having to do with women’s proper role. After the Civil War a Georgia diarist reflected, apropos the battle over black suffrage, that if anyone, even the Yankees, had given her the right to vote she would not readily give it up.3 As early as the 1860s a handful of southern women presented suffrage arguments to the state constitutional conventions. After 1865 a surprising number of women spoke out in favor of suffrage and a larger number were quiet supporters. There were, of course, equally ardent opponents, and until 1910 or so, organizing suffrage associations was uphill work. As one goes through these records, however, suffragists and advocates of women’s rights emerge from the dim corners in which they tended to conceal themselves when they were alive. The conventional view that southern women eschewed politics will not survive a close reading of these records. In 1808 one letter writer regretted the fact that a male literary society would have no more parties since she enjoyed listening to the men talk politics.4 As early as the 1820s there is evidence for women’s participation in political meetings and discussions. Such involvement continued through the secession debates and the difficult days of reconstruction. A memoir offers a stirring account of the role of women in the critical election of 1876.5 By the 1870s southern women were already using their church societies to carve out a political role, and by the end of the century they had added secular clubs, many of them focused on civic improvement. Reading women’s documents we can envision the kinds of education available to the most favored among them. Many women kept records of their reading and much of it was demanding: Plutarch’s Lives, for example, or Gibbon’s Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire. A very young woman who recorded reading Humboldt’s Kosmos, Milton’s Paradise Lost, Madame De Stael’s Corinne, and Guizot’s History of Civilization was not altogether unique. Others castigated themselves for reading novels and resolved (sometimes over and over) to undertake more serious study. At the very beginning of the nineteenth century a young woman from southwest Virginia had gone to Williamsburg to school, presumably to a female academy or seminary.6 There are many examples of strenuous efforts at self-education, and in the privacy of their diaries some women admitted to a passionate longing for knowledge (reading clubs, for example, were described as “a peace offering to a hungry mind”).7 Of course one of the limitations of sources such as these is precisely that they come principally from the minority who had some education. It is up to the perceptive historian to extrapolate from these documents to the poorer women, the slave women, and all those who seldom left a record at all. (There are occasional letters from slaves in these voluminous collections, but they are rare.) Papers that cover a considerable period provide us with many real-life dramas. Courtship patterns and marriage and family experience emerge. We see the widow left with children to support as she tries various options to earn a living—and in some cases takes to drink to ease her burdens. We see the single woman cast on her own resources as she tries teaching or housekeeping for a widower to keep body and soul together. Single sisters of wives who died

ix Introduction young were likely to wind up first taking care of the bereft children and then marrying the widower. Other single women bemoan their fate and reflect that it might be better to be dead than to live single. The Majette Family Papers from the holdings of the Virginia Historical Society provide one good example among many in the series where a husband and wife corresponded as he moved a slave force into new western lands (in Arkansas) while she managed an established plantation in the old southeast.8 Married or single, rich or poor, many women inadvertently reveal the socialization that has persuaded them that they should never complain, that they must be the burden bearers of family life. Through the whole century, while the rest of the country was restlessly urbanizing, the South remained predominantly an agricultural society. Women’s records allow us to see the boredom of rural life in which almost any bit of news, any adolescent wickedness, any youthful romance is subject for comment. We see also the profound religious faith that supported many women through poverty, childbirth, widowhood, and the other trials that filled their lives. The religious history of the Civil War emerges as we see faith challenged by defeat, and many women beginning to question things they had always believed. In an act of stoical determination, the mortally ill Ann (Randolph) Fitzhugh penned a comprehensive essay of advice to her pre- teen daughters bequeathing them her ethics on the importance of religion in personal deportment, on the choosing of husbands, and even on sexual relations.9 No reader of these documents can any longer doubt that plantation women, in addition to supervising the work of slaves, worked very hard themselves. Depending on their level of affluence, women might take care of livestock and chickens, plant and harvest gardens, card, spin and weave, make quilts, sew clothes, and perform many other specific tasks. The Soldiers’ Aid Societies that formed so quickly after secession rested on just these skills developed in the previous years. One of the most interesting aspects of southern culture that emerges from papers such as these is the views women and men had of each other. No matter how much a woman admired any particular man, she often viewed men in general with extreme skepticism and sometimes with outright bitterness. Men were often described as selfish, authoritarian, profligate, given to drinking too much, and likely to judge women as a class, not in terms of their individual attributes. Many women found their economic dependence galling. In spite of the rather general chafing at the confines of patriarchy, individual women were devoted to and greatly admired their own husbands, sons, and fathers. Women who traveled spoke with admiration of the independence exhibited by northern women (this both before and after the Civil War). Discontent with their own lot included a good deal of private railing against constant childbearing and the burdens of caring for numerous children. The concept of a woman’s culture is borne out by much of what can be read here. Women frequently assume that they say and feel things that only other women can understand. It would be difficult to exaggerate the significance of this microfilm publication. Historians of women have been making use of many of these collections for three decades or more. Now it is gradually becoming clear that they are useful to the student of almost any aspect of southern culture and society. In a recent example, Clarence Mohr, writing about slavery in Georgia, realized that women’s records were virtually his only source for testing the well-established southern myth that all slaves had been docile, helpful workers when men went to war and left

their wives and children to supervise plantations. Years earlier Bell Irwin Wiley had suggested that the story was more complicated than that, but it did not occur to him to look for evidence in women’s papers. The description of such docility never seemed reasonable, but it was believed by many people, even some who had every reason to know better. In a close examination of women’s diaries and letters, Mohr found a quite different picture, one of slaves who, when the master departed, became willful and hard to direct and who gave the mistress many causes for distress. To be sure, they did not often murder families in their beds, but they became lackadaisical about work, took off without permission, talked back, and ran away to the Yankees when opportunity presented itself. They made use of all the thousand and one ways of expressing the frustration bondsmen and women must always feel.10 Wartime documents are revealing in other ways. We can see rumors flying, as victories and defeats were created in the mind, not on the battlefield. We sense the tension of waiting for word from men in the army. We see the women gradually losing faith that God will protect them from the invaders. For some, religion itself is called in question by the experience of invasion and defeat. As we move into the remaining decades of the nineteenth century, these records allow us to trace some of the dramatic social changes of the postwar world. In one family we see a member of the generation of post–Civil War single women earning her living in a variety of ways and then beginning a full-time career as a teacher at the age of fifty-eight. She continued to teach well into her eighth decade. This particular set of papers is especially valuable since it goes through three generations—a wonderful exposition of social change as revealed in the lives of women.11 We must be struck by the number of men in the immediate postwar years who chose suicide over the challenges of creating a new society without slaves. In records from the second half of the century we can see lynching from the white perspective, observe the universal experience of adolescence, watch the arrival of rural free delivery of mail and the coming of the , and many other evidences of change. Reading these personal documents the historian may be reminded of Tolstoy’s dictum that all happy families are alike, while unhappy families are each unhappy in their own way. One may be tempted to revise the aphorism to say that every family is sometimes happy and sometimes unhappy—the balance between the two states makes for a satisfactory or unsatisfactory life. Reading family papers one may also be forcefully reminded of Martha , writing about the difficulties she faced as first lady. She was, she said, “determined to be cheerful and to be happy, in whatever situation I may be; for I have also learned from experience that the greater part of our happiness or misery depends upon our dispositions, and not upon our circumstances.”12 From the larger perspective of the social historian, records such as these will help us develop a more comprehensive picture of life as it was experienced by the literate part of the southern population over a century. They help us understand the intricate interaction of individual lives and social change. We can see the world through eyes that perceive very differently from our own and understand better the dramatic shifts in values that have occurred in the twentieth century. Like any other historical data these must be used with care, with empathy, with detachment, and with humility. But given those conditions they will add significantly to our

The Lee Family papers consist of correspondence beginning shortly after the marriage of Robert Edward Lee (1807–1870) to Mary Anna Randolph Custis (1808–1873), daughter of George Washington Parke Custis and Mary Lee (Fitzhugh) Custis of Arlington, Fairfax County, Virginia. The letters were exchanged chiefly between Robert and Mary Anna, with letters to and from their children appearing as each child came of age. The correspondence documents Robert E. Lee’s service with the U.S. Army Corps of Engi- neers at Fortress Monroe, Virginia (1831–1832); Washington, D.C. (1833–1837); Des Moines, Iowa; St. Louis, Missouri; Fort Hamilton, New York (1842–1846); Mexico (1846–1848); and Baltimore, Maryland; and his tenure as superintendent of the U.S. Military Academy at West Point, New York, 1852–1855. From 1855 until 1861, he was stationed chiefly in Texas but

73 Reel Index returned home regularly and was in Virginia at the time of John Brown’s Raid on Harpers Ferry. In February 1861, he was recalled to Washington, D.C. He resigned his commission April 20, 1861, and accepted command of Virginia’s military forces two days later. After the war, Lee was offered the presidency of Washington College in Lexington, Virginia. He served in this position from 1865 until his death in October 1870. Prior to the Civil War, Mrs. Lee and the Lee children often made their home with her parents at Arlington, although the family lived for brief periods of time in New York and Baltimore. The Lees had seven children, three sons and four daughters. The eldest son, George Washington “Custis” Lee (1832–1913) attended West Point, 1850– 1854, and joined the army engineering corps. He was assigned to Fort Clinch, Amelia Island, Florida (1854–1857), and Fort Point, San Francisco, California (1857–1859). He was serving in the Engineer Bureau, Washington, D.C., when he resigned his commission in 1861. He served as aide-de-camp to President Jefferson Davis and for a short while prior to the fall of Richmond was in charge of the command of the city’s defenses. From 1865 until 1871, Custis Lee was a professor of applied mechanics and engineering at Virginia Military Institute in Lexington. He replaced his father as president of Washington and Lee College, serving from 1871 until 1897. He died in 1913, unmarried. The second son, William Henry Fitzhugh “Rooney” Lee (1837–1891), attended Harvard College, 1854–1857, and was appointed a lieutenant in the U.S. Army and sent to Texas under General Winfield Scott. He served under Colonel Albert Sidney Johnston during the campaign against the Mormons. In 1859 he resigned his commission and returned to Virginia, where he married Charlotte Wickham (d. 1863) and settled down as a planter at the White House, New Kent County, Virginia. He joined the Confederate Army in 1861 and served under his father. He was wounded in 1863 at the Battle of Brandy Station and later captured by Union cavalry and held as a prisoner of war for nine months. After the surrender in 1865 Rooney returned to the White House. In 1867 he married Mary Tabb Bolling of Petersburg and had with her two sons, Robert Edward (b. 1869) and George Bolling (b. 1872). The family moved to Ravensworth, Fairfax County, Virginia, in 1874. Rooney had an avid interest in agriculture and served as president of the Virginia Agricultural Society. He also served in the Virginia Senate (1875–1878) and the U.S. House of Representatives (1887–1891). The third son, Robert Edward “Rob” Lee (1843–1916), attended the University of Virginia, 1860–1862, before joining the Rockbridge Artillery and later the army of . After the war, he joined his brother Rooney at the White House. In 1871 he married Charlotte Taylor (d. 1872). In 1894 he married Juliet Carter, by whom he had two daughters, Anne Carter (b. 1897) and Mary Custis (b. 1900). For a number of years, he farmed in King William County, Virginia, but two years before his death he joined the Washington, D.C., firm of Dulany, Fleming and Lee and handled real estate, stocks, and insurance. The Lees had four daughters: Mary Custis (1835–1918), called “Daughter”; Anne Carter (1839–1862), called “Annie”; Eleanor “Agnes” (1841–1873); and Mildred Childe (1846–1905), called “Millie” or “Precious Life.” None of the daughters married. Annie died suddenly at White Sulphur Springs, Warren County, North Carolina, the victim of an epidemic. The correspondence is arranged chronologically; letterbooks and other volumes appear at the end of the collection. An index to correspondents and subjects appears at the beginning of Reel 10.
