Title: Dallas W. Newsom and Dorothy Newsom Rankin Collection. 1913, 1930-1990.

Clippings, subject files, and miscellaneous manuscripts and ephemera collected by Dallas W. Newsom, Durham county manager in 1930s and 1940s, and his daughter, civic leader and local historian/preservationist Dorothy Newsom Rankin. The bulk of materials from Dallas W. Newsom's collection consists of clippings and subject files related to Durham County government during the Great Depression and World War II years. This material has particular research potential for scholars interested in relief efforts during the Depression, the beginnings of Raleigh-Durham Airport, and the inner workings of county government. The Dorothy N. Rankin files provide extensive material on Durham local history. Especially noteworthy are a history she compiled on the Southern Conservatory of Music in Durham and a collection of Durham historical photographs.
