Biographical Note

A lawyer in New Orleans, Louisiana, Edward Alexander Parsons (1878-1962) married and had at least one daughter. A bibliophile, he briefly worked for the New Orleans Public Library in the 1930s and over a period of sixty years built a private collection, known as the Bibliotheca Parsoniana, with over 8,000 manuscripts and 40,000 publications on the American South, which was acquired by the University of Texas at Austin in 1958. An avid researcher and amateur historian, Parsons published numerous articles, pamphlets, and books, such as The Noble Art of Printing: An Exposition, with Some Account of Johann Gutenberg, the Father of Printing (1940), The Letters of Robert R. Livingston: The Diplomatic Story of the Louisiana Purchase (1943), The Alexandrian Library, Glory of the Hellenic World: Its Rise, Antiquities, and Destructions (1952), and The Wonder and the Glory: Confessions of a Southern Bibliophile (1962).

Scope and Contents

The material in the Edward Alexander Parsons Collection, 1678-1928, 1951, comprises a wide variety of manuscript documents concerning the American South, primarily Louisiana and surrounding areas. Records provide a wealth of information about government of the area by the French and Spanish in the 18th Century; negotiations between the United States and these countries for free navigation of the Mississippi River and for the Louisiana Purchase; activities of the Louisiana Militia in the War of 1812 and the Battle of New Orleans; and the Aaron Burr/James Wilkinson conspiracy. Individual documents of note include correspondence and legal records relating to privateer and smuggler Jean Lafitte, 1813-1815; correspondence of General James Wilkinson regarding the War of 1812 and other matters; two late 18th-century letters from Thomas Jefferson regarding settlement, navigation, and Native Americans; and many documents from Louis XIV through Louis XVI.
