Charles E. Fenwick Collection--Wathen Group--Report of George H. Morgan re Mary Julian Fowler

Entry/Object ID

1995.001.1465

Scope and Content

1 sheet ; 9 3/4"h x 15 1/4"w This is one of 25 individual pieces found in the courthouse trash by G. Frank Wathen and given by him to J. Allan Coad, who subsequently gave them to Mr. Fenwick. The archivist found the documents folded and bundled together at the bottom of a carton that was part of Mr. Fenwick's collection; some of the pieces are so frail, it is a miracle they survived. George H. Morgan, in his capacity as trustee for Mary Julian Fowler and her children, reported to the Circuit Court about the investment of funds for the benefit of the family. Morgan bought farm animals, farm equipment, fodder, and household goods for a total of $398. Mrs. Fowler appears to have been completely destitute of worldly goods; her late husband must have been dramatically unsuccessful in life.
