1836List2949Clarke Cobb and Harris Counties Georgia 1836. Three documents. One four-page document measuring 5 x 8 ¾ inches likely previously a single sheet; water stained with some tearing at folds very good. One double-sided document measuring 8 x 10 inches; water stained and folded with large tears at folds possibly with part missing good. One single-sided document measuring 7 ¾ x 12 ¾ inches. Water stained and folded with large tears at folds much damage to margins good. Overall good. Three legal documents in which William Barber buys and sells plots of land shortly following the establishment of Cobb County. In 1834 and 1835 Barber buys plots from John Gann and Elizabeth Kennon for $100 each and in 1836 sells land to Gilbert Rake for $500. Gann is possibly the plantation owner Cobb County pioneer and State Senator. <br /> <br /> These land contracts date to a time at which a small number of Cherokee—whose territory included present-day Cobb County—had voluntarily left the area following the Indian Removal Act of 1830 while a majority had not done so. The Indian Removal Act required Indigenous people east of the Mississippi River to cede their land to Euro-Americans and move west of it to so-called Indian Territory now Oklahoma. In 1835 the US government met with a group of Cherokee claiming to represent the tribe in New Echota Georgia and signed a removal treaty. When the majority of the tribe viewing the treaty as illegitimate refused to move voluntarily the US government sent the military to intervene.<br /> <br /> Of interest to historians of Cobb County and land dealings between its early Euro-American residents during the removal of its Indigenous population. unknown

An exceptional archive of original TLS many with original samples of paper leather and even sand which were used in ever increasing quantities by the noted manufacturer of sleigh bells bells pull toys and many other toys for children from the Gilded Age through World War I. The earliest letter dated Feb. 10 1899 includes two paper samples from the Henry Lindenmeyr & Sons Paper Warehouse in New York on Bleeker Street noting that “we can furnish in the shade of your sample at $ 8.00 per hundred sheets basis 25 x 36. We could not make less than a thousand yards.†Sixty or the majority of the letters and samples were sent by the Barber Co. beginning in 1902 and continuing into World War I. Their letters and samples describe the colour grain and general finish of the included samples as well as their perfect applications in “baby carriage straps shawl straps small cases i.e. for toys small tool boxes†and of course sleigh bells and bell hangers and bell flappers as well as handle grips.

For their manufacturing processes they required foundry sands and the Pettinos Brothers based in Columbia Ceylon Bethlehem PA and Mexico sent them a sample of their plumbago “high grade Ceylon stock.†There is even a May 29 1905 solicitation letter from F. von Bardeleben after seeing the Hill Brass Co. exhibit at the 1904 St. Louis World’s Fair mentioning that his company can supply a “very fine grade of non-poisonous unchangeable paints to be used for painting toys.†The N.N. Hill Brass Co. founded by Norman Newton Hill 1863-1950 in 1889 operated until the early 1960’s was one of the largest factory’s in the World producing bells & toys and by the 1930’s produced Walt Disney merchandise.

Daniel Barber has left a 'History of My Own Times' Washington 1827 in which he states that his father and mother were Congregational Dissenters of strict Puritanic rule and he continued in that sect until his twenty-seventh year when he joined the Episcopalians. Previous to this he had served two terms as a soldier in the Continental army" "Barber Family" by Thomas Francis Meehan Catholic Encyclopedia website accessed May 01 2026. <br /> "Daniel Barber came from good Puritan stock and was a fine upstanding Congregationalist minister. Until some Episcopalians convinced him that Apostolic Succession matters when it comes to ministerial Orders. So he became an Episcopalian priest. He was a fine upstanding Episcopalian priest for many years. He and his wife Chloe raised three children as good Episcopalians. But eventually the question of Apostolic Succession came back to him and he realized that Episcopalianism didn't satisfy the question of Apostolic Succession - the Catholics actually had it and the Episcopalians didn't. Meantime his son Virgil had also become a fine upstanding Episcopalian priest. He and his wife Jerusha were in charge of a good school and had a comfortable life with their children. But a chance encounter with a pamphlet on the life of St. Francis Xavier fired his heart to seek the faith that motivated a man like St. Francis to do what he'd done. Eventually Virgil and Jerusha became Catholic. Then Chloe converted along with a number of other members of the family. And finally Daniel also became Catholic. The entire affair was very upsetting to fine upstanding New England Protestant sensibilities and caused a sensation" "Barber Family" by Thomas Francis Meehan Catholic Encyclopedia website accessed May 01 2026. <br /> FIRST EDITION.
