Biographical Historical Note: Berkeley County and Charleston, S.C. attorney and politician. He began his legal career in 1911 working for prominent Charleston attorney J.P.K. Bryan and subsequently practiced law independently and in partnership with several other attorneys. Stoney began his political career by winning the race for South Carolina ninth circuit solicitor in 1916, a position to which he was reelected in 1920. Stoney was elected mayor of Charleston in 1923 and again in 1927. As a member of the Democratic Party Stoney ran an unsuccessful campaign to unseat incumbent U.S. Senator James F. Byrnes in 1936. Stoney remained active in politics throughout his life, working for the election of Dwight D. Eisenhower and participating in the South Carolinians for Independent Electors movement and efforts to block desegregation. Stoney became increasingly alienated from the Democratic Party. Throughout his career he maintained an aversion for the growing influence of federal power. He married Beverly Means DuBose in 1915, and their children were Randell Croft Stoney, Theodore DuBose Stoney, and Laurence O'Hear Stoney. Scope and Content: The most significant portion of the papers consists of correspondence (1909-1971) relating to many aspects of Stoney's personal and family life and legal and political careers. Case and client records include papers pertaining to the sale of Social Hall, The Bluff, and Airy Hall plantations (1920s-1930s); and papers of genealogical interest (1921) pertaining to Laura Parker and Adam Wright, an African- American couple married at Bellville Plantation in 1873 who later moved to Charleston. Other case records also pertain to African-Americans. There are other papers (including reports, newsletters, clippings, and other material) pertaining to Stoney's educational, political, social, and fraternal memberships and affiliations. Organizations include Porter Military Academy, University of the South (Sewanee, Tenn.), University of South Carolina (especially in regard to the football program), Charleston Chamber of Commerce, Charleston Athletic Club, and several Episcopal churches. Plantation and farm records (1939-1971) include financial and property records pertaining to a farm in Ladson (S.C.) and Kensington Plantation. Also included are the papers of Beverly Means DuBose Stoney (Mrs. Thomas P. Stoney), Randell Croft Stoney, Theodore DuBose 1 Stoney, and Laurence O'Hear Stoney. Financial records include bills and invoices. Among Stoney's miscellaneous legal papers is an account book (1912-1916) for legal fees. Other items include numerous speeches (1901-1962) by Thomas P. Stoney and others; biographical information; his will (1921); a group of topical files (mostly printed material) concerning various subjects of interest including agriculture, the Bushy Park Project (1950s), Interstate 95 (1960s), race relations, segregation, communism and communist infiltration of or influence on civil rights groups and leaders, including the NAACP and Martin Luther King, wartime fundraising (WW II), political campaigns, opposition to desegregation, vice (prostitution, gambling, illicit liquor sales) in Charleston, Stoney's service on the South Carolina Penitentiary Board (Dept. of Corrections), states’ rights, unions (especially tobacco workers), urban renewal, Stoney Field (a stadium named in his honor), the Supreme Court, and local and national politics, especially the policies of Franklin D. Roosevelt and the New Deal. Abstract: The most significant portion of the papers consists of correspondence relating to many aspects of Stoney's personal and family life and legal and political careers. Plantation and farm records (1939-1971) include financial and property records pertaining to a farm in Ladson (S.C.) and Kensington Plantation. Also included are the papers of Beverly Means DuBose Stoney (Mrs. Thomas P. Stoney), Randell Croft Stoney, Theodore DuBose Stoney, and Laurence O'Hear Stoney. Records relating to Stoney’s work at the law firms of Stoney & Cordes, Stoney & McGowan, Stoney, Crosland & Pritchard, Stoney & Crosland, and Stoney & Stoney are also included. Note: A portion of the papers of Thomas P. Stoney was processed and cataloged in 1996. The rest of the collection, which had been stored in an offsite facility, was later brought to SCHS. In May 2007 the processing of these additional papers was completed and they were worked into the existing collection. The boxes and folders were rearranged and renumbered. The finding aid reflects the new organization of the collection. Most of the information contained in the following notes was compiled in 1996 and is offered as valuable background and context for the collection. Preferred Citation: Stoney, Thomas P.

Stoney personal and business papers Subseries 1.1 Correspondence Notes on the Correspondence The correspondence reflects many aspects of Stoney’s personal life and political career. Most of the letters of the 1910s document his personal interests, including a love letter to the future Mrs. Thomas P. Stoney. There are also letters concerning his political activities. Correspondents of this period include Governor Richard Manning, Mayor Tristam Tupper Hyde, and Mayor John Grace. The correspondence of the 1920s documents Stoney’s political activities including his 1920 election as solicitor, and his 1923 and 1927 mayoral races. The death of his father in 1922 is also mentioned. Also documented is William J. Cordes’ relocation to Boston (Mass.) as the manager of the Boston Retail Credit Co. The correspondence of the 1930s documents Stoney’s struggle to redefine himself after being mayor of Charleston. Apparently, he chose not to run for reelection in 1931 and supported Burnet Maybank in the mayoral campaign. Stoney sought appointment to the position of U.S. District Attorney in 1932. The correspondence documents his pursuit of the position by soliciting the support of every person who could possibly influence the outcome. Also reflected is his disappointment at not being appointed to the position. The correspondence of 1935 and 1936 documents Stoney’s challenge to incumbent U.S. Senator James F. Byrnes. After being defeated in this race Stoney abandoned the pursuit of office and focused on his legal career. The correspondence of the 1940s reflects Stoney’s interest in his sons’ education and includes his advice to them while they attended the University of the South (Sewanee). Stoney actively involved himself in obtaining an appointment to the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) for his son Theodore Dubose Stoney. During World War II Stoney involved himself in activities related to fundraising for the war effort. After the war, Theodore and Laurence O’Hear Stoney returned to join Stoney & Crosland. The correspondence of the 1950s documents Stoney’s political involvement.

It explores the meanings and effects of resistance within the context of the waterfront, the South Carolina plantation economy, and the wider Atlantic World. Focusing on the period that began with the major slave rebellion along the Stono River in 1739 and culminated with the 1785 incorporation of Charleston, this dissertation relies on newspapers, legislative journals, court records, and the private correspondence and business papers of merchants and planters to reveal the daily activities of waterfront workers as they interacted with each other, and with their employers and masters.

WARDLAW EXPLANATION OF CHARACTERS The letters A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H denote the generations beginning with Robert (Al). The large figures indicate the heads of families, or those especially mentioned in their generation. Each generation begins with 1 and continues in regular sequence. The small figures show number, according to birth, in each particular family. Children dying in infancy or early youth are not mentioned again in line with their brothers and sisters. As the work progressed, new material was received, which, in some measure, interfered with the plan above outlined. Many families named in the early generations have been lost in subsequent tracing, no information being available. By a little examination or study of the system, it will be found possible to trace the lineage of any person named in the book, through all generations back to Robert (Al). PREFACE For a number of years I mave been collecting data con­ cerning the Wardlaw and allied families. The work was un­ dertaken for my own satisfaction and pleasure, without thought of publication, but others learning of the material in my hands have urged that it be put into book form. I have had access to MSS. of my father and his brothers, Lewis, Frank and Robert, all practically one account, and presumably obtained from their father, James Wardlaw, who in turn doubtless received it from his father, Hugh.

ABBREVIATED WAR-TIME EDITION This publication is an abbreviated war-time edi- tion of the catalog covering the regular college pro- gram for the period of 1942-1945. No catalog has been published since August, 1942, and this current edition includes the registers of regular students for the sessions of 1942-1943, 1943-1944, 1944-1945, and the summer semesters of 1943 and 1944. This abbreviated catalog is restricted to the regular college program and does not include the curricula or lists of trainees for the Air Corps Col- lege Training Detachment, the Basic and Advanced Army Specialized Training Programs, and the Army Specialized Training Reserve Program. This catalog does not include the many courses taught under the program of Engineering, Science and Management War Training. Clemson College has served the war effort through the training of approximately five thousand service men on the campus and through the training of three thousand men and women for war industries. Except for a few changes in the curricula and such additional programs as may become available, this catalog also serves as an announcement for the 1945-1946 session. However, the college is continu- ing the war-time practice of issuing special an- nouncements in the form of bulletins which are published at regular intervals.
