Tennessee State Library and Archives A. P. Welch Business Records State of Tennessee Department of State Tennessee State Library and Archives A. P. Welch Business Records, 1900-1983 COLLECTION SUMMARY Creator: Welch, A. P. (Abraham Poteet), 1881-1956 Inclusive Dates: 1900-1983, bulk 1918-1930 Scope & Content: Consists of correspondence, receipts, maps, ledgers, and political ephemera. The bulk of the collection is correspondence to and from A. P. Welch in his capacity as proprietor of A. P. Welch and Company. The letters mostly relate accounting and pricing information in the timber and lumber industry. A delightful collection of letterheads depict storefronts and manufactories across the Eastern United States, including Tennessee. Other letterheads artfully display business logos and trademarks. The correspondence contains a particularly fine collection of illustrated letterheads depicting wagons, buggies, and early automobiles. Also among the correspondence is a 1922 letter from a gentleman asking Welch to assist in the construction of a Nazarene church in Columbia, Tennessee. Attached to a letter from A. Frank and Co., Nashville, from March 1921 is a wallpaper sample. A copy of a workmen’s compensation accident report from A. P. Welch and Company, dated September 1923, was attached to correspondence with Integrity Mutual Casualty Company and sent in October 1923. A number of telegrams to A. P. Welch further discuss his timber business. The collection also includes a sample ballot from the 1940 Putnam County local election and a campaign flyer for Jared Maddux promoting his candidacy for state senate. A publication from the Monterey Church of the Nazarene celebrating its 75th anniversary has an image of Rev. A. P. and Daisy Welch on the cover. A damaged Victory Garden leaflet published by the University of Tennessee Agricultural Extension Service was found between the pages of one of the ledgers. A pamphlet advertises the course offerings at Trevecca College (later Trevecca Nazarene University). Sixty maps and plats depict Welch’s land around the Upper Cumberland Plateau including a number of Monterey, one of Tennessee and Kentucky, and one of the world. These are all stored in map drawer M-12-18, except the largest, which are on top of M-8 and M-9 in an oversize folder. An oversized photograph depicts a group of A. P. Welch’s employees enjoying an employee thanksgiving. They are seen wearing celebratory ribbons, a number of which are in the collection. One photograph shows Arthur Jackson Nickens in a World War I era U. S. Navy uniform, although he never served. Eighteen ledgers detail A. P. Welch’s accounts and finances. In addition to his business and personal accounts, Welch kept early accounts of the Monterey Church of the Nazarene, including contributions. Some ledgers from local banks, perhaps kept by his brother, complete the collection.

John Lewis Way North, Nashville, Tennessee, 37219 Administrative/Biographical History Abraham Poteet Welch was born on May 28, 1881, in Putnam County to John Wesley Welch and Julia Ann Ford. His World War I draft registration describes him as a short and slender man with black eyes and graying hair. On August 3, 1900, he and Daisy Andrews married in Putnam County. At the time of this marriage, A. P. lived at home and worked as a grain dealer. Before he launched A. P. Welch and Company he worked as a minister, farmer, and for Cookeville Veneer Company. His business, A. P. Welch and Company, bought and sold lumber, coal, real estate, and feed. Under this styling, Welch served as the purchasing agent for Carthage Spoke and Cooperage Company and Cookeville Veneer Company. He served as a director of The Welch Stave and Heading Company with his relatives George Nathaniel Welch, John W. Welch, J. P. Welch, and J. N. Welch. A. P. helped found Monterey Nazarene Church in 1903 and continued preaching full-time until 1930. A. P. and Daisy Welch had three daughters, Lucile, Margaret Josephine, and Ruth. He died on January 9, 1956, and is buried in Welch Memorial Cemetery in Putnam County.

As no order, other than a rough chronological one, was apparent within the binders the material was separated and placed in new classifications.

For this reason it was impossible to believe that the order was original or the work of George Gavan Duffy himself.

  • How Were Female Students Treated from 1917-1920 by Charlie Williams
    Disparity or Equality: How Were Female Students Treated from 1917-1920 By Charlie Williams For years, a girl’s place was in the home. Days and nights were spent cooking, cleaning, and waiting on the hand and foot of their families. There was very little, if any, room to advance and make a career while trapped inside the body of a woman. This view on female sexuality and gender roles started to improve during the Progressive Era between the 1890s and 1920s. At this juncture in time, women gained the right to vote and even started to leave the house. Many women also took a leap of faith and started the journey of earning a college degree on campuses across the United States. California Polytechnic State University, San Luis Obispo was one of those schools where women found a place to study. During World War I, female involvement in academics may have been seen as groundbreaking due to the fact that women were rel- atively new to higher education; however, women on campus were treated as substandard. Their ability to grow as intellectuals and innovate new technol- ogies and ideas was halted by the patriarchal, male dominated, nature of the college institution at the time. By looking at the course catalogs and yearbooks released by Cal Poly between the years 1917 and 1920 one can easily come to the conclusion that male students were the top priority of the institution. The Progressive Era was a time full of change. Social reform was popular during the 1910s and 1920s, and more liberal times allowed women an oppor- tunity to rise up.

  • Presidential Hush Money, Circa 1920 Warren G
    ESSAY Presidential Hush Money, Circa 1920 Warren G. Harding got elected partly by women exercising voting rights for the irst time. They didn’t know about the aair that his party paid to cover up—or about his second mistress Portrait of President Warren Harding while in ofice PHOTO: EVERETT COLLECTION By Elaine Weiss May 31, 2018 1232 p.m. ET The Republican presidential candidate had a problem: a looming sex scandal that could derail his White House campaign. One of his mistresses was blackmailing him, threatening to tell all about their extra-marital affair. She was going to sell her story—with documentary evidence— to the press. Something had to be done. A team of political fixers was dispatched to negotiate a hush-money agreement with the mistress, and they succeeded: She kept mum. The candidate won the election and, with the help of millions of women voters, rode to victory under the campaign slogan “America First.” The president paying his way out of trouble is not the one you’re probably thinking of: It was Warren G. Harding, winner of the White House in the 1920 election. But there are remarkable parallels to today’s unfolding revelations about presidential fixers and payments to talkative former sex partners. Harding had a “woman problem” that needed to disappear. Actually, there were several Harding affairs to keep under wraps during the campaign. The assiduous application of money, intimidation and non-disclosure contracts kept the candidate’s troublesome lovers squelched. Harding was the bland—but randy—Ohio Senator who became the surprise compromise candidate of a deadlocked Republican convention in the summer of 1920.
