Harkrader Family Papers (#4974-z) 1902-1955

1902-1955

Harkrader family of North Carolina, Indiana, and Virginia and the related Lloyd family of Virginia. Principal family members were Mrs. L. V. Harkrader (fl. 1904-1928), a hotel keeper in Dobson, N.C.; her daughters Margaret Harkrader (fl. 1902-1905), a teacher in Moser, N.C., and Lillian Harkrader (fl. 1904-1931), who taught school in Mt. Airy, N.C., before becoming Surry County clerk; and her daughter-in-law Lela Harkrader (fl. 1920-1934), who lived in New Castle, Ind., and later moved to Richmond, Va. Lela's children were W. Trent Harkrader (fl. 1925-1929), a school principal and Surry County accountant; Vena Harkrader (fl. 1920-1925), who taught school in Elkin, N.C.; and Margaret Harkrader (fl. 1930-1934). The bulk of the papers are letters, 1902-1934, received or written by Harkrader family women. There are also a few letters received by W. Trent Harkrader and William Fletcher Lloyd. The letters are love letters, family letters, and letters from friends, documenting family life, young teachers' experiences in various North Carolina locations, and the lives of students attending the North Carolina College for Women, including advice from relatives on how to conduct themselves. Other letters document the difficulties of financing an education at the University of North Carolina; spiritualism; local politics in Dobson, N.C.; and Lloyd family history. Scattered financial and legal papers, 1911-1929, are mostly receipts and other items, some pertaining to the purchase of land in Yadkin County, N.C.
