Part 6: Virginia Plantations
Part 6 consists of over fifty collections documenting families and
plantations in all parts of Virginia, as well as Alabama, Mississippi,
and other states. Correspondence, plantation diaries, account books, and
other records concern plantation life, slaves and slavery, family life,
health and medicine, religion, and other aspects of life in the 18th and
19th centuries.

Journals of the Lightfoot family record personal and plantation finances
at estates in Caroline County, Virginia. Daybooks covering the 1816–1865
period contain information on specific crops and plantation management.
A slave record book, ca. 1850–1870, reveals the distribution of shoes
and clothing to slaves and wages paid to freedmen and women.
