 File — Box: 1, Item: 19

Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

Half of this collection consists of the writings and research of Dr. A. Elizabeth Taylor on the subject of Woman Suffrage. The other half of the collection documents her interests and her family involvements in the social life of Columbus, Georgia, including the Marguerite Garden Club of which her mother was a member, the Ivy Garden Club, the Mardi Gras and Heritage balls supported by her brother and his wife.

There is also a collection of deeds dating from 1839 that show the transfer of ownership of Miller family property through the years. The connection to Dr. A. Elizabeth Taylor comes through on the April of 1944 last will and testament of Elizabeth A. Miller, whose daughter Angie Mae Taylor was Dr. Taylor's mother. The Walter Miller listed as a son in the will might be the same Walter Miller on whose dairy farm Columbus College was built.

There is also a collection of Columbus area high school yearbooks belonging to family members.
