MBRO 1-7 Series : Correspondence, 1823-1876
List of Correspondents, 1823-1876
This list contains the names, arranged alphabetically, of those who corresponded with Orestes Augustus Brownson and whose letters are found on the first eight rolls of this microfilm publication. Where one person has written more than one letter, the letters have been listed under his name in a chronological order. Where several persons have joined to send one letter, separate entries have been made for each person. The dates of each correspondent's letters are given in the same chronological order in which they are found on the microfilm. An exception has been in the case of enclosures, which have been filmed immediately after their cover letters. In such cases, two dates have been given: first, the date of the enclosure; and, second, the date of the cover letter. For example, E.D. Barker's letter of Feb. 5, 1862, to William D. Kelley is listed thus: 1862 Feb. 5 (to William D. Kelley, encl'd in 1862 Feb. 6, Kelley to O.A.B.). On the microfilm the reader will find the letter by referring to the date of the cover letter. Letters dated only by month and year will be found at the beginning of that month; letters dated only by year will be found at the beginning of that year. Letters dated only by decade will be found at the beginning of that decade. For example, a letter dated [186?] will be found at the very beginning of the letters for 1860. Undated correspondence has been filmed after the dated correspondence and arranged alphabetically according to the author's last name.
This list does not include either the correspondence in the Scrapbook of Army Letters of Captain Edward P. Brownson, filmed on Roll Eight, or the correspondence acquired from other collections, filmed on Roll Nine. The correspondence from other collections has been filmed separately in units according to the source from which it has been obtained. A complete listing of this material will be found in the list of items microfilmed. On both the film and in that list this material has been placed after the undated correspondence in the original Orestes A. Brownson Collection.
