This letter is in Collection 566, The Edward L. and Mary Evelyn Bell McGuire Records. This part of the collection is personal correspondence from 1844-1849, to Adaline E. Hollingsworth (my 2-great grandmother)who lived in Monroeville and married Richardson Foster son of Elizabeth Foster. Date of letter is May 15, 1847, from Martha Elizabeth Wallace, Monroeville, AL. to Adaline E. Foster, Spring Ridge, LA. Contents re: Col. Foster brought letter; Uncle Flavel; going to dance school; 'French sweetheart' wants to be in Adeline's wedding. Unfortunately, this is one that I don't have a transcription on my computer yet so I cannot e-mail the contents (will check my paper records, if I have transcribed this in prior years).
