Frederick Augustus Haddock account book, 1861-1863.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/45164588

Accounts documenting production and trade in turpentine; indexed by name, volume records dealings with a number of local firms and families: J.F. Carraway, McConnell & Britton, Ange & Brothers, Furnifold Rhem, J.B. Anderson, J.A. Hemingway, Dr. J.J. Steel (for medical attention to slaves), Marion Britton, and James Snow. Listed items refer most frequently to barrels of turpentine, tar, and rosin, but book also includes a list of hides being tanned, including "22 Hides from Gov. [Robert F.W.] Allston." In a separate account appears a reference to "Elm Grove distillery," evidently owned by Haddock; also including genealogical register of African-American slave families working for Haddock.
