Description
Newspaper articles on elderly, notable African American Tallahassee community members. One article is about 'Aunt Susie' Hartfield, who was born to slaves and began attending school for the first time at 101-years-old to learn how to write. The other is about the death of Leon County's oldest citizen, Dan "Uncle Bud" Brown, the son of newly freed slaves. Attached to the clippings are handwritten notes by Althemese Barnes, with brief updates on her research progress.
