Letters, 1836-1847.

Letters, 1836 Feb. 29 and 1847 May 7, both from LaTourrette in N.Y., N.Y. The first is to John Coffee, in Florence, Lauderdale Co., Ala., and the second is to Gov. Joshua Lanier Martin, in Tuscaloosa, Tuscaloosa Co., Ala. Both letters concern maps of the state of Ala. In particular, LaTourrette was concerned with showing the best roads, hostelries, and eateries, as well as the location of all post offices and towns, and any changes in any of the above over the last few years. The second letter, a photocopy, is concerned with whether the state of Ala. received the map LaTourrette sent to its Secretary of State ca. 1845.
