Other materials are rosters and account records of McCulloch's volunteer companies (1846-1851) and a small group of documents covering Henry's activities as superintendent of the Texas Institution for the Deaf and Dumb (1877-1879). Miscellaneous materials include a manuscript interview concerning the Pan American Railway Company (undated) and papers related to W.M. Hardy and the Slaughter family.
