Huger family papers, 1772-1910.

Huger family papers consist of the papers (1772-1886) of Daniel Huger (1779-1858) including personal and family correspondence, business and financial papers, legal documents, and estate records; the estate papers of John Huger (1744-1804); business and estate papers of Charlotte Huger (d. 1836); and notebooks, scrapbooks, commonplace books, and other items belonging to various members of the Huger and Bacot families. Estate papers (1804-1826) of John Huger consist of estate accounts kept by Daniel Huger (1779-1858), receipts, legal documents, and other items. Business and estate papers (1810-1841) of Charlotte Huger include her will and epitaph, receipts, bonds with her brother Daniel Huger, a deed of gift, and a note from Hugh Rutledge concerning the appraisal of some slaves. Huger-Bacot family materials (ca. 1827-1910) include a notebook containing crochet patterns, essays written in notebooks, and loose items including handwritten and typescript essays, copies of poems, lecture notes, pencil sketches, and lists of newspaper carriers and their routes. Essays concern subjects such as the flag of Texas, the life of Dr. Robert Barnwell Rhett, and John Locke. Other loose items include invitations and calling cards. Two commonplace books (1830-1842), one belonging to Julia Amanda Huger (later Bacot), contain handwritten copies of poems and original poetry, copies of literary passages, and numerous fine watercolor paintings of rustic landscapes, flowers, children, and other subjects. A scrapbook (of Charlotte Huger?) contains prints, a few watercolor paintings, poems, and passages from religious commentaries.

ca. 660 items.
