John and Margaret Hood Zug papers

1837-1851 (majority 1838-1843)

http://hdl.handle.net/1903.1/1316

The John and Margaret Hood Zug papers consist of correspondence and cover a broad range of subjects, including temperance, Christian behavior, child-rearing, and even antebellum southern society. Much of the correspondence is between Pennsylvania natives John Zug, a temperance speaker and minister, and Margaret Ann (Hood) Zug before and after their marriage in 1841. There is also correspondence between Zug and his friends and associates in the temperance movement. After John Zug's death and Margaret Zug's remarriage sometime before 1846, there was extensive communication between Margaret and a cousin who moved from Pennsylvania to Richmond, Virginia, and reported her impressions of her new home and society.
