Title: William S. Leonard papers, 1808-1862 (bulk 1808-1829) [manuscript].

Papers created and accumulated by William S. Leonard and his brother, Isam, sons of Jacob Leonard of South Bridgewater, Mass. William came to North Carolina in 1819 with New England goods to sell, and remained for over a year in Hertford, Perquimans County, as a school teacher. The next year he and his brother opened a store in Hertford which they operated for serveral years, returning to Massachusetts over the summers. In 1822 they moved their business to Windsor, Bertie County, N.C. In 1825 they both became ill, William died, and Isam moved back to Massachusetts, returning to North Carolina the next year to close the business. The papers consist of letters between the brothers, correspondence with another brother, Levi, a Unitarian minister in Dublin, N.H., and with their father; a few letters from North Carolinians, especially Edward Wood and John S. Wood, of Hertford; and letters and other papers from commission merchants in Boston, New Bedford, New York, and elsewhere. The later items deal with efforts to collect money owed to the Leonards, and with later members of the family. There is one letter, 16 May 1862, written by a Union soldier from Massachusetts while in New Bern, N.C.
