Wilson, J. N. (Jerome Nelson) (1827-1897)
Consists of a stereoview photograph by Jermone Nelson Wilson (1827-1897), depicting Black and white voters in Savannah, Georgia, on Election Day in 1868, which was the first presidential election in which formerly enslaved people in the American South were able to participate. This photograph shows a crowd of Savannah voters lined up around a large banner for the Ulysses S. Grant ticket and includes handwritten captions reading "First Colored Vote" and "Election Scene." Many of the voters in the far distance appear to be Black, and at least one of the dozen men perched on fence posts in the foreground appears to be white.
Collection
Wilson, H. H. (H. Hubert)
H. Hubert Wilson was a professor in Princeton University's Department of Politics from 1943-1977.

Collection
Wilson, H. H. (H. Hubert)
The papers of Princeton University professor Harper Hubert Wilson document his interest and work in civil liberties. A self described "conservative, anarchist and socialist," Wilson provoked his students to think critically about the social problems confronting society, and to challenge the prevailing assumptions about American politics.

Wills family
Consists of a bible given by John Paxton (1784-1868) and John Paton of the Norfolk Bible Society of Virginia to the Wills family in Amelia, Virginia, in the early 19th century. The Wills family were enslavers, and they used the beginning and end of the bible to extensively document the births of white family members as well as the Black people they enslaved. It is also possible that some of those described in the bible were the children of John Wills and women whom he enslaved.

Dehumanizing and harmful descriptions using racist, colonialist, and sexist language were used to describe many of the items in this collection. In some cases, descriptions were creator-supplied or generated from transcriptions of captions on the photographs. In other cases, in which photographs lacked any identifying information, descriptions were created by an archivist. These items are identified in the description with the note, "Cataloger supplied title." However, the collection is a candidate for ongoing reparative description work. We hope that researchers will engage in a dialogue with staff about issues in the collection and changes that could help.
