Abstract: |
Records of the Texas
Department of Agriculture, Insurance, Statistics and History are
correspondence, reports, letterpress copybooks, and registers dating from 1856
and circa 1880 to 1908, with the bulk of the material dating from 1888 to 1898.
Although not complete, the records of the Department do serve to document the
regulation of insurance in Texas; they show what people wanted to know about
Texas before moving here or starting a business; and how county officials
reacted to the burden of collecting additional information. The records are
particularly helpful in documenting the importance of the Geological Survey.
The development of the State Library and the role of the Texas Library
Association in the passage of legislation creating the Library and Historical
Commission is covered from 1902 to 1908. |

The Texas Department of Insurance, Statistics and History was created
by an act of the 15th Legislature and began operations on September 1, 1876. As
its name implies, the duties of the Department were varied. From the
Comptroller, it took over the regulation of insurance companies and agents; it
was to obtain and publish statistics "relating to the population, wealth and
general resources of the State;" it was to collect and classify historical
materials; and, the State Library was placed under its control. The 20th
Legislature in 1887 added Agriculture to the Department's name and furthered
its duties to include the collection and publication of statistics regarding
agriculture. The Geological Survey, which existed from 1888 to 1894, was also
placed under the Department of Agriculture, Insurance, Statistics and History.
The State Banking Department was created by the 29th Legislature in 1905 and
placed under the Department. Finally, in 1907, the 30th Legislature created the
Department of Insurance and Banking and the Department of Agriculture. The
State Library was transferred to the newly legislated Library and Historical
Commission in 1909.
Return to the Table of Contents
Records of the Texas Department of Agriculture, Insurance, Statistics
and History are correspondence, reports, letterpress copybooks, and volumes,
dating from 1856 and circa 1880 to 1908, with the bulk of the material from
1888 to 1898. Earlier records may have been lost in the Capitol fire of 1881.
Although not complete, the records of the Department do serve to document the
regulation of insurance in Texas; they show what people wanted to know about
Texas before moving here or starting a business; and how county officials
reacted to the burden of collecting additional information. The records are
particularly helpful in documenting the importance of the Geological Survey;
little was known of the geology and topography of Texas and that information
was greatly desired. The development of the State Library and the role of the
Texas Library Association in the passage of legislation creating the Library
and Historical Commission is covered from 1902 to 1908.

required by the Commissioner and requests for reports and for specific
information. It is likely that a few items can be found relating to insurance,
agriculture, and history. The bulk of the records date from January 1889 to
December 1891; individual items can be found dating before and after the bulk
dates. The files are alphabetical by first initial of surname or name of
institution; the correspondence of an author may be found in either or both
places. |

Records are incoming correspondence, reports, subject files
including financial records and photographs, and chemical analyses of mineral,
soil, and water samples, dating from 1856 and 1888 to 1898. Files are from the
Department of Agriculture, Insurance, Statistics and History and focus on the
Geological Survey of Texas, which was headed by Edwin T. Dumble. Incoming
correspondence includes requests regarding geological survey reports and
correspondence from the United States Geological Survey. The Geological Survey
of Texas also received correspondence and reports from its members who were
conducting surveys throughout Texas. These records include summaries of the
geology and topography of the area, routine correspondence, and drafts of final
reports. |
|
|
|
These records were formerly known as the Dumble Letters. |
|
|
|
Arrangement |

|
|
Correspondence is filed in broad chronological groups which
overlap and then alphabetically by surname and/or institution name;

Letterpress copybooks,
1881-1901, 11.87 cubic ft. |
|
Records are letterpress copybooks containing copies of outgoing
correspondence dating from 1881 to 1901 for the Texas Department of
Agriculture, Insurance, Statistics and History. Separate books were kept for
each of the department's major functions, i.e., Insurance, Geological Survey,
Agricultural Bureau, and State Library. For the most part the distinctions were
observed, yet it is possible to find letters relating to the Geological Survey
among the insurance letters. Sometimes letters out of the chronological
sequence may be found at the end of a book. Most of the letterpress copybooks
contain an index. The books are in bad condition and many of the letters so
faded as to be illegible. |
|
