Lenoir County, NC - Collections - Delia Hyatt Papers ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ North Carolina State Archives - Private Manuscript Collections Collection: Delia HYATT Papers 1710; 1736-1968 Lenoir County, N.C. Physical Description: Approximately 5 cu. ft. (including letters, greeting cards, deeds, grants, plats, maps, promissory notes, receipt book, autograph book, papers from lawsuits and bankruptcy proceedings, tax receipts, wills, laws, diplomas, Bibles, prayer books, coats of arms, photograph albums, daguerreotypes, ambrotypes, tintypes, photographs, printed pamphlets, and newspaper clippings) Acquisition: Deposited by the Hyatt Memorial Home for Boys, Inc., 1969. Two letters (1859 and 1864), gift, Friends of the Archives, 1998. Description: This collection of material is gathered into four groupings: (1) family papers (including land records); (2) Bibles and prayer books; (3) photographic images in different forms of photography; and (4) oversize material. Most, but not all, of the papers are made up of deeds, grants, plats, surveys, and legal papers relating to the Hyatt family's real property. Consequently the greater part of them are evidences of title to lands conveyed in 1963 to the charitable trust, Hyatt Memorial Home for Boys. Of the Bibles and prayer books, only two Bibles contain family data. The photographic material includes a few daguerreotypes, a number of ambrotypes and tintypes, and a larger number of paper photographs. About half the photographic material lacks identification notations, though all of it relates either to the northern branch or to the southern branch of the family. A brief background of the family, and succinct sketches of the members of it who are principally represented in the collection, is furnished for the convenience of the researcher. Two brief family charts are appended for the same purpose. FAMILY PAPERS Anderson Roscoe Miller (1830-1905), son of Imla Nunn Miller (1801-1857) of Lenoir County, N.C., graduated in medicine at Cincinnati, and in dentistry at Baltimore. In 1857 he married Delia Maria Henry (1835-1884), a native of Waterbury, Vermont. Miss Henry, educated in Vermont and New York, and proficient in French, Spanish, and Latin had taught schools in Vermont and Florida before coming to Lenoir County, N.C., to teach the children of Mr. Miller's cousin, Mrs. Frank Thompson. After their marriage the Millers moved to Wisconsin where their first daughter, Sybil, was born in June, 1858. Later that year the family returned to Kinston, N.C., where they were joined briefly by Mrs. Miller's younger sister, Sybil Henry, who, too, came south to teach. The Millers' second daughter, Maud, was born in the spring of 1861, and shortly thereafter Mrs. Miller took her daughters to visit her family in Vermont. Here she remained during the first year of the Civil War. The surrender to U.S. forces of all but one of the North Carolina coastal towns during the first half of 1862 opened the way for Mrs. Miller's return to Kinston. She returned in the autumn of 1862, leaving her daughter Sybil with her kinspeople in Vermont. She arrived in federally occupied New Bern just as preparations were under way for a federal military expedition to destroy the railroad facilities at Goldsboro. Consequently Mrs. Miller was detained and not allowed to go on to Kinston until December 18, after the campaign had ended. During the remainder of the war Mrs. Miller remained in Kinston until the fall of Forts Fisher and Anderson early in 1865. She managed to get through the federal lines at New Bern and to embark for Vermont to visit her family and retrieve her daughter Sybil. After the war Mrs. Miller proved herself an astute merchant and businesswoman in Kinston. Though not indigeneous to the collection, the papers contain two letters written from Kinston to family in Vermont: one written by Miss Sybil Henry in 1859, and the other by Mrs. Delia Henry Miller in 1864. These were purchased by the Friends of the Archives in 1998 and added to the collection as "Miller Family Letters" (PC.1529.2). The letter by Sybil Henry (Oct. 27, 1859) was written while she was staying in the Miller household and describes the small school in Kinston that she taught. Mrs. Miller's letter to her mother (Jan. 28, 1864) is descriptive of her life in war-torn Kinston and warns that if she is able to go to Vermont in the summer of 1865, she will arrive quite destitute. Additional passages, dated Feb. 16, make reference to the hanging of 22 soldiers in Kinston who, upon capture, were found to be former Confederate soldiers who had deserted and joined the U.S. army. Dt. and Mrs. Henry Otis Hyatt. Dr. and Mrs. Miller's daughter, Sybil Henry Miller (1858-1933) married Dr. Henry Otis Hyatt (1848-1922) in February 1877. Dr. Hyatt, a native of Tarboro, first studied medicine under Dr. Newsom Jones Pittman (1818-1893) and subsequently graduated from the University of Pennsylvania's school of medicine in 1868. Dr. Hyatt moved his practice to Kinston in 1872. Here he was very successful, establishing a private hospital, or sanatorium for the treatment of chronic disease, in 1891. In the same year he established a newspaper in the town, "The Herald of Health", that ran until 1893. Papers in the collection include biographical information on Dr. Hyatt as well as some of his health-related publications, a copy of his 1913 and 1922 wills, and some papers relating to his estate. Mrs. Hyatt is represented by an 1875 autograph book signed by friends and relations in both Kinston, N.C., and Waterbury, Vermont; certificates of membership in various patriotic societies; and newspaper clippings relating to her death and to the death of her sister, Maud Miller Luce. Dr. and Mrs. Hyatt had three children, none of whom married or left issue: Sybil, Delia, and Anderson Lawrence Hyatt. Sybil Hyatt (1877-1951) was educated locally in Kinsey Female Institute at LaGrange, N.C., and in the Collegiate Institute for Young Ladies of Notre Dame of Maryland, Baltimore (Mistress of Liberal Arts, 1895). Planning career in education, she attended a six-week summer schools for teachers at the University of North Carolina (1896), University of Virginia (1909), and Columbia University (1912). Miss Hyatt taught school, serving frequently as principal, between 1908 and 1912. She then did research work at the newly established Caswell Training School (now the Caswell Center) at Kinston from 1912 to 1914. After a local controversy in 1916 in which Miss Hyatt attempted unsuccessfully to force educational reforms in the Lenoir County school system, she appears to have given up teaching altogether, though not her interest in public education. A folder of papers in the collection contains some biographical information and a copy of her 1939 pamphlet, "Calling All Children". In this small pamphlet she sets forth her ideas on educational reform and rehearses some facts from the 1916 controversy that culminated in a legal prosecution against her. A second folder relates to a lawsuit that she pursued in the 1920s and 1930s to confirm the metes and bounds of her Kinston property. There are several photographs of her at various stages of her life, some from her years at school in the College of Notre Dame of Maryland, one from the summer session at the University of Virginia (where she and other teachers posed preparatory to the July 4 parade, 1909), and a series showing her and her friends enjoying themselves on a holiday at Seven Springs, N.C. Her college diploma is filed with the oversized material at the end of the collection. Anderson Lawrence Hyatt (1884-1960) was educated in the medical schools of the University of North Carolina (1906-1908) and the University of Maryland (M.D. 1910). After returning to Kinston to practice medicine, young Dr. Hyatt persuaded his father, against the latter's better judgment, to let him try the experiment of farming as a landlord with tenants. The result was not reassuring to the elder doctor, who had no delusions with reference to his son's business acumen. The upshot of the experiment was that the elder Dr. Hyatt revoked the last will and testament he had drawn up in 1913 and wrote a new one in 1922 in which he bequeathed his real and personal property in Kinston to his two daughters and his extensive Dover Swamp lands in Craven and Jones counties to his son. Simultaneously, he conveyed the Craven and Jones lands by deed to his daughter, Delia, in a cestui que trust by which she became trustee for her brother. There are a few papers of biographical interest relating to Dr. A. L. Hyatt; most of his papers are legal files concerning suits over the Dover Swamp lands, his bankruptcy proceedings, and his promissory notes, in all of which figure his sister Delia. Delia Hyatt (1881-1964) was educated in the Kinston High School (1900), the Kinsey Female Institute at LaGrange, and St. Mary's School in Raleigh. Subsequently she briefly taught school: Clayton High School, 1908/09, and Mount Olive Graded School, 1909/10. The collection includes three photographs of Miss Hyatt and students in front of the Clayton High School building during the 1908/09 school year. Her true occupation in life, however, seems to have been management of real property. In 1963, as her life was coming to a close, Miss Hyatt created a charitable corporation styled, "The Hyatt Memorial Home for Boys" and transferred her property to it. The objective of the corporation, when established, was to create a home for needy white boys, and failing that to create an educational fund to assist needy children to attend schools of advanced learning in the state. The home Miss Hyatt envisioned never materialized. Under a 2001 restatement of the articles of incorporation, all references to the proposed home and educational fund were deleted. The corporation continues in existence. Delia Hyatt's few surviving papers relate to real property and taxes on her property in Lenoir and Carteret counties, North Carolina, and in the states of Oklahoma and Florida. There are two folders of documents and a receipt book relating to her estate and to the Hyatt Memorial Home for Boys. There is a little biographical information concerning her in the collection, and some photographs. Her high school diploma is filed with the oversized materials as are her certificates of membership in various patriotic societies. Land Records, 1763-1963. One box of materials contains abstracts of title, copies of deeds and grants, plats of survey, and miscellaneous papers relating to Hyatt real estate in North Carolina, Florida, and Oklahoma. One-half box contains duplicate copies of these materials. Among the land records is a folder containing typed transcripts, or extracts, of laws ranging in date from 1762 to 1875 concerning the corporation of the town of Kinston, North Carolina, its boundaries, powers, and rights. BIBLES. Sixteen Bibles and prayer books were received packed up with the Hyatt papers. A 1900 printing of the Bible includes the Hyatt family record from 1779 to 1964. A Bible salesman's sample dummy (made to show the choices of bindings and illustrations available to purchasers of McCurdy & Company's 1872 edition of "The People's Standard Edition" of the Bible) has in it Dr. H.O. Hyatt's family record from 1848 to 1881. A death notice and obituary for William Roscoe Miller (1895) is pasted into an 1866 American Bible Society printing of the Bible. The thirteen remaining Bibles and prayer books in the collection contain no family data. PHOTOGRAPHS. The collection includes several photo albums, all of which had been much disturbed prior to receipt by the Archives. There is a large number of photographs, ambrotypes, tintypes, and a few daguerreotypes. Many of these are of North Carolina branches of the Hyatt family: Miller, Luce, Prather, and Tilghman. An equal number represent northern branches of the family: Henry, Gale, Green, and Hinckley. (For family relationships, see the two family charts at the end of the finding aid.) The albums have been left as received. Identified loose photographs have been separated from unidentified ones. OVERSIZED MATERIAL. These materials include the diplomas of Henry Otis Hyatt, Sybil Hyatt, and Delia Hyatt; Delia Hyatt's certificates of membership in the Society of the Colonial Dames of America, the Daughters of the American Revolution, and the Daughters of American Colonists; land plats; Kinston city plans; Hyatt Memorial Home for Boys property maps; Lenoir County maps; and maps of the state of Florida.
