Biographical History
The Foote family has lived in Kentucky since the early 19th century. They also had branches of the family in Virginia and the Deep South. These papers include some of this early history of the family. The majority of the papers are from the early 20th century from Edwin C. Foote. Edwin Foote attended business school in Louisville and briefly worked in the city as a bank teller, before returning to the farm in Breckinridge County. His correspondents include friends still living in the county while he lived in Louisville and a female friend studying nursing in Washington, D.C. The Foote family was also involved in local politics and there are several documents dealing with the Democratic Club of Breckinridge County. Subjects of these papers include the War with Mexico, the 1876 Hayes-Tilden presidential election, and the Kentucky governor's race of 1907.
