http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/469227957

The papers of Connally (1877-1963) primarily document his personal life in the 1940s and contain the 1952 announcement of his retirement from the Senate. Included is personal and political correspondence as well as financial records. Speeches, newspaper clippings, and printed material relate to his service as chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and as delegate to the 1945 meeting of the United Nations in San Francisco and a scrapbook documents his biography. The materials were received as part of a collection from Mrs. Lucille Sheppard Connally, wife of U. S. Senator Morris Sheppard and U. S. Senator Tom Connally. Materials in the donation pertained to both Connally and Sheppard and have been processed as separate collections. Senator Connally gave his papers documenting his political career to the Library of Congress in 1953. A register of these papers can be found in the holding record.
