Papers, 1758-1894.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/19491530

Personal and business correspondence and other records (chiefly 1864-1882) of three South Carolina planter families: the Deveaux, Singleton, and Moore families. The Deveaux portion of the papers contains a few letters from Robert Marion Deveaux's children at school, but consists mostly of plantation records. Included is one volume containing accounts of the estates of W.M. Deveaux and of Miss Marion S. Deveaux, and plantation records for "The Ruins" and the Oakley and Pinckney plantations. The Singleton papers are mainly military records, plats, and indentures of Captain Mathew Singleton, with a few letters from Richard Singleton to his daughters; the Moore papers are personal and legal. Correspondents include J.K. Paulding and Abraham Van Buren.
