The Papers of William Short

My name is Marty D. Matthews and I am co-editor along with Monica Henry of a new NHPRC funded project, The Papers of William Short, a born-digital documentary edition, hosted by the Institute for Southern Studies at the University of South Carolina, focusing on Virginian William Short (1759-1849), who was a U.S. diplomat and fiscal agent in Europe, a successful businessman and philanthropist in the United States, an early advocate of the emancipation of enslaved people in Virginia, and Thomas Jefferson’s “adoptive son.” Our website is at go.sc.edu/williamshortpapers.
