a| The bulk of the collection consists of claims for pensions by African Americans who served in the United States Army and United States Navy during the Civil War. Ledgers were once the property of Frederick Douglass, a black lawyer, minister, and teacher of New Bern who handled the claims. Claims request compensation for wounds and injuries received or diseases contracted by the applicants. While the majority of claimants appear to have lived in the vicinity of New Bern and James City, N.C., many lived in the central portion of eastern North Carolina. Collection also contains a probationers' roll book for the Clinton Chapel A.M.E. Zion Church in New Bern, which contains names of church members, minutes of trustees meetings, an itemization of church expenditures, receipts, and discussions of church-related problems. Also consists of Douglass's account book from his law practice, which lists his clients and has entries for payments of claims, probated wills, rents, and promissory notes.
