Nancy Winbon Chase Papers, . 1921-1982

http://www2.lib.unc.edu/mss/inv/c/Chase,Nancy_Winbon.html

Nancy Winbon Chase of Eureka, Wayne County, N.C., chaired the Women's Division of the North Carolina Farm Bureau, 1951-1961, and was the representative from Wayne County in the North Carolina House of Representatives, 1962-1978. Subject files, most of which contain either materials from Chase's political campaigns or newspaper clippings about her activities as a state representative, comprise about half of the collection. The remainder consists of typed and handwritten speeches by Chase and letters written to her. With the exception of a few notes from family members, the correspondence almost entirely relates to Chases's public activities, especially speaking engagements. There are also photographs, primarily of Nancy Winbon Chase and at various public functions. Among others photographed with Nancy Winbon Chase are Eleanor Roosevelt, Terry Sanford, and James Hunt.
