Letters and papers concerning the efforts of Benjamin N. Duke and J. B. Duke to uncover the genealogy of the Roney branch of the family. Betty Dailey's maiden name was Roney; she compiled for the Dukes a list of the Roney genealogy through the Duke's second cousins. A letter of Jan. 7, 1925 from J. B. Duke to Betty Dailey states the reasons for his establishment of the Duke Endowment. Collection includes "'Dailey Bred,' a List of Descendents (sic) fo John Gill Dailey, 1838-1909, and Sarah E. Compton Dailey, 1846-1917," and several items relating to the Duke Hall of Citizenship, a gift to Lincoln Memorial University from J. B. Duke.
