Primarily correspondence, 1864-1869, of Francis E. Moody Sims (ca. 1845-ca. 1912) of Lenoir and, later, Charlotte, N.C. Some of these letters, written while Sims was a student at Davenport Female College in Lenoir, were addressed to or received from an uncle, Marcus D. L. Moody (ca. 1826-1869), who lived in Charlotte; they concern Sims's studies and teachers and local and family news. Other letters concern marriage plans and family news and were exchanged with James Monroe Sims (1840-1922), whom Francis E. Moody married in 1869. Additional material includes scattered Moody family correspondence and Sims family financial records.
