Papers, chiefly of Dr. Jesse Ewell, Jr., contain an essay, "Medical and surgical history of Virginia" by Dr. Ewell which contains names and biographical sketches of approximately 166 surgeons and physicians. The papers also contain a scrapbook, chiefly devoted to Virginia and Maryland heraldry; a manuscript biographical sketch of Gen. Richard S. Ewell, C.S.A.; some correspondence which is chiefly personal and family, but with one letter, 16 Feb. 1860, relating to Virginia secession that mentions James L. Kemper; and a newspaper clipping listing a partial roster of Virginia physicians and the units in which they served while in the Confederate Army.
