McKinney and Milam Family Papers

 

The McKinney Family series consists of correspondence, legal and financial documents, tax receipts, land surveys and plat maps pertaining to the Collin McKinney family. The documents in this series date from 1766 to 1860, with the majority of documents in the period 1830 to 1850. This series contains documents pertaining to Collin McKinney and his life as a planter, merchant, congressman, lay preacher, Justice of the Peace, and family man. Several documents also pertain to Collin's brother, Daniel McKinney, and Daniel's eldest son, Blatchely McKinney.

The Milam Family series consists of correspondence, legal and financial documents, tax receipts, journals, land surveys and plat maps of the Jefferson Milam family. The earlier documents in this series pertain to Benjamin R. Milam, uncle to Jefferson Milam, and his duties as overseer of the Wavell Colony. Documents between 1835 and 1844 deal with Jefferson Milam, his family and his business as a planter, and his tenure as Surveyor General for Red River County. Later documents deal with the life and times of Eliza Serene McKinney Milam and her children. Several letters deal with the Civil War service of Eliza and Jefferson's five sons. There are several letters to Robert Milam from his friend, L.H. Graves.
