Scott, John Morin

Papers, ca.1815-1868

Background note:
Papers of John Morin Scott, Pennsylvania state representative in the late 1830s. The collection consists of a large number of letters between Scott and his wife, ca.1820-1845. The couple were apparently very close, though often separated, and very affectionate with each other. Scott includes some stray comments on political matters, but the correspondence is primarily concerned with personal and family matters.
