These papers contain correspondence from Irish emigrant James Patton (1802-1866) to his parents in Ireland during the years 1822-1859. Patton's letters describe his American adventures of land speculator, teacher, and farmer while living in New York, South Carolina, and Arkansas. Patton's letters also convey the loneliness of a young emigrant, his love for his parents, his Christian faith, and his pride in his Arkansas family. Mary A. Strong, who married Stephen Strong, a distant relative of James Patton, provided letter transcriptions.; This collection is arranged chronologically.Finding aid for the James Patton paper
