Ed Hamlett Papers
1954-1988

Series I-VI Listing

Series I. The General Correspondence Series (2.1 linear ft.) contains much of Ed’s miscellaneous correspondence--both with friends and his family. Ed saved many newspaper articles pertaining to civil rights and the Vietnam War. These have been categorized by topic in the section bearing the obvious name. Included in this series is the entire “Port Huron Statement” clipped from the New York Times. A final smaller section includes Ed’s collected posters and bumper stickers--all found in the Oversized Materials Series.

Series II. The Personal and Biographical Series includes materials related to Ed’s education at Union University, the University of Tennessee as well as Jackson High School. Along with the scholastic miscellany, the series includes materials on Nashville politics, religious organizations in which Ed took part, resumes, job materials as well as pamphlets brochures and newsletters.

Series III. The Newspaper Clippings Series contains information on Civil Rights Movement, Nursing, and other issues that raised Ed’s interest.

Series IV. The Notecard Series consists of contact cards created through social activism work. They contain names, addresses, and phone numbers of people with like interests.

Series V. Oversize Materials.

Series VI. The Council of Federated Organizations (COFO) and White Folks Project (WFP) Series contains correspondence, reports, and publications from these two organizations as well as some material from SNCC. The information is primarily from the 1960’s.
