The collection consists chiefly of business and legal papers of the family but also contains correspondence, military, genealogical and religious papers, school notebooks and University of Virginia certificates of graduation. Business and legal papers include deeds, patents, leases, bills of lading, wills, indentures, invoices, land grants of Sir William Berkeley and Baron Effingham, surveyors plats and reports, financial accounts and receipts for tobacco shipped to England and articles purchased there. Topics in the correspondence include the tobacco trade, settlement of the estate of Lewis Latané (d. 1732), plantation management, life in Harden County, Ky., slavery, and the University of Virginia. Military papers document the career of James Allen, a captain in the 6th Regiment, Virginia Militia, 1824-1828, and include orders, returns, and rosters, as well as one earlier forage abstract from the Virginia Militia under John Hartwell Cocke in the War of 1812. Religious papers chiefly involve Southfarnham Parish in Essex County, and include a hymnbook, a letter from Alexander Spotswood, 1716, re a suspension from ministerial office and an Act for the Better Support of the Clergy, 1727. University of Virginia notebooks of James Allen Latané and George Magruder cover mathematics, the moral philosophy lectures of William Holmes McGuffey, junior law lectures of John Barbee Minor, and senior law lectures of James P. Holcombe. There is also a children's arithmetic book, ca. 1721, of Henry Latané. Miscellaneous items include an 1812 issue of the "Virginia Argus," and a 1781 issue of the "Virginia Herald," an address delivered to the Jefferson Society of the University of Virginia in 1853, an 18th century music book, and Virginia currency notes, 1757-1778.
