Anderson/Sterrett Family Papers, 1860-1886

Consists of four letters from various family members. One letter from H.V. and Betsy McCurdy to Galen Sherman mentions the 1860 election. Three other letters are between Anderson family members and talk about death, health and other family members. Also includes Ella M. Anderson Sterrett's diary for the year 1886 when the family is living near Barbourville, VA. She talks about family activities, her daily work and people in the community. Occasionally she will mention how poorly she feels or wishes she had more children to help with all the work. Two photographs of unidentified individuals complete the papers (in Artifact Box 4).
