Mary G. Cary and John R. Cary papers. 1816-1920

Issues of domestic life and family relations, as well as attendance at Meeting are the focus of this collection of letters and documents relating to the Quaker families: Evans, Gilpin, Newlin, Stokes and Waln. The greatest number of letters was written by John Stokes (1800-1868) to Hannah Smith who would later become his wife. In addition, there are typed transcriptions of letters of Evans, Stokes and Waln family members, including an account of an encounter between English and French fleets during the American Revolutionary War. Also typed and transcribed are letters regarding treatment of Quakers as conscientious objectors during the Revolutionary War. In addition, there are photographs of members of the Cary, Cope, Elkinton, Evans, Garrett and Stokes families.
