I am researching the history of Dred Scott and the Supreme Court decision
that bears his name. I'm particularly looking for diaries, paintings,
photos, news reports, and letters written on the subject and on the
subject of slavery in general.
Many of the participants in the case are faceless and any information on
them would be greatly appreciated! They are:
Dr. John Emerson, U.S. Army
Irene Emerson Chaffee
John F.A. Sanford
Lizzie Scott Madison (of St. Louis, MO)
Mary Ann Shadd Cary
Please reply via email and thank you.
