Draper manuscripts: Kentucky papers

Collection of papers of diverse dates and formats dealing with the early history of Kentucky. The original manuscripts were created by pioneer Kentucky settlers representing numerous occupations and professions--land promoters, surveyors, farmers, housewives, historians, teachers, clergymen, merchants, and soldiers. Several volumes relate primarily to events, institutions, and people in the city of Lexington, Kentucky; elsewhere is material on the development of Louisville and other communities. A major portion of the collection consists of the papers of John D. Shane, a Presbyterian minister in Ohio and Kentucky.
