Roxie Antoinette Williamson Collection

 Collection
Identifier: URB-RAW

Scope and Contents

The collection consists of tax records, correspondence, a 1908 presidential election ballot, and a few small notes and receipts. The 1908 Alabama Official Election Ballot notably lists “electors for president” in the presidential selection rather than listing the presidential nominees directly. The correspondence is via Paul E. Green from Orcutt Ranch (previously known as Rancho Sombre del Roble) in Owensmouth, California. The tax records document an ownership transfer from W.H. Williamson to Roxie A. Williamson between 1909 and 1910.
