Thomas Settle Papers, . 1808-1879

http://www2.lib.unc.edu/mss/inv/s/Settle,Thomas.html

Thomas Settle (1789-1857) of Rockingham County, N.C., was a lawyer, legislator, and judge of superior court in North Carolina. The collection contains family, business, and political correspondence of Thomas Settle. Included is correspondence with his nephew, North Carolina Governor David Settle Reid (1813-1891) and others prominent in public affairs in North Carolina; bills, receipts, and deeds. Topics are primarily family news but include some discussion of North Carolina politics, especially concerning Reid's re-election. Later correspondence (1878-1879) discusses travel through Florida and the economic opportunities in Jacksonville, and the training of hunting dogs.
