Title: The Leonard Corder Huff-Martha Louise Meriweather family
Description: This first person memoir of a pioneer citizen of Luling, Texas, includes delightful descriptions of a planter's daughter growing up in pre-Civil War Tennessee and Georgia.  Mattie was the granddaughter of General David Meriwether for whom Meriwether County is named in Georgia.  The text, though highly personal, is of interest to the general reader due to the lively descriptions of personalities and some interactions with slave members of the various households.  This material would serve well as the basis for a fine novel or film script.  The volume includes photos and genealogies.  The memoirs include many personalities from the Williams Family of Georgia and some references to the Taylor Family.
People: Huff family, Martha Louise Meriwether Huff (1837-1917)
