Description
Scope and content: Brief writings about various facets of Nashville history, most of which are self-explanatory by their title. "Early historical markers" is about sites marked in 1897 as locations where early settlers had been killed by Indians prior to 1800. The essay about Waverly Place refers also to A.W. Putnam, owner of the former residence by that name. A few articles include personal reminiscences by Beasley.
