Walton Family Papers, 1804-1868, Greene County, Alabama

This collection consists chiefly of nineteenth-century personal correspondence and financial and legal papers of the Walton and Webb families. There are also miscellaneous loose writings and six maps, circa 1820s, of land in western Alabama. Although William Walton and his wife Justina L. Walton owned and operated a cotton plantation in Greene County, Alabama, there are few items directly related to the running of the plantation or to the approximately 100 slaves who lived and worked there.
