Julia Mellichamp papers, 1917, 1922-1938

 Sub-Series
Identifier: E

Scope and Content of the Subseries

Printed material and some written works, primarily related to the American Red Cross instructional course, "Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick," make up the papers of Julia Mellichamp, who had chaired the Red Cross Service in her native Virginia and worked in public health positions after moving to South Carolina in 1927. Though these papers do not reflect her service, Mellichamp was Treasurer of SCNA at the time of her death in 1939, and had served in officers' positions in the state nurses' associations of Virginia and West Virginia. Ruth Chamberlin, who filed biographical material on Mellichamp in her "Historical Committee of League" file (in subseries B), may have acquired these papers.
