Manuscripts
The collection consists of 14 letters from Andrew Johnson, eight letters from others, two signed checks, and a copy of Johnson's apprenticeship order; material dates from 1822 to 1870. Johnson's letters are primarily to his son, Robert Johnson, and his son-in-law, David Trotter Patterson. These letters discuss politics in Tennessee and nationally, including the Democratic Party and presidential elections; events in Greeneville and Nashville, Tennessee; foreign relations; appointments; and personal matters of Robert Johnson. Letters from others, most of which are to Johnson or family members, primarily concern Tennessee and the Civil War.
