Abstract
Original appraisement and account book pertaining to the estate of John S. Camden, 1862-1881. There are two ledgers of T.B. Camden, a physician, covering his medical practice in sixteen counties, listing private accounts, cost of medical care, insurance claims, and statements of Camden's income, 1865-1907. There is a scrapbook of clippings, numerous broadsides, and correspondence on professional and political activities of Camden including letters from friends regarding his dismissal as superintendent of the state hospital for the insane at Weston. The microfilm includes entries from the diary of Thomas S. Feamster, a Confederate soldier, noting troop movements in Greenbrier County, 1861, 1864-1865, and entries from the commonplace book of Theodore Woodridge.
