Six diaries of Albert Raymond Barton of Rome, New York for the period from January 1, 1862 to December 31, 1870. The detailed, regular entries describe the social, political, and religious scene in Oneida and Schuyler Counties; Barton's trips to Vermont, Massachusetts, and New York City; his work and apprenticeship to local physicians; medical studies and practice; involvement in various religious and political societies, and his active participation in Republican electoral politics, including Abraham Lincoln's re-election in 1864 and Ulysses S. Grant's presidential campaign of 1868. Barton also recounts local and national news and rumors of the progress of the war, the Emancipation Proclamation, the "Copperheads," the draft and the New York draft riots, the New York State elections of 1863 and 1865, Lincoln's assassination, and the politics of Reconstruction.
