Scope and Contents

From the Collection:

The Felicia Cornelius Honeycut papers consist of newspaper clippings and photographs connected to the McVea family and Centenary College of Louisiana (Jackson, La.). The newspaper clippings include an obituary for Judge John McVea (1821-1876) and an article describing Centenary College of Louisiana’s commencement activities (1880 July). These clippings may have originally been published in the Southern Watchman (Clinton, La.). The photographs depict Charles McVea (1831-1886; Centenary class of 1850) and his relatives: stepbrother William Fergus Kernan (1825-1899; Centenary class of 1850), brother-in-law John Tunstall Hilliard (1841-1862; Centenary student 1859-1861), and niece Felicia H.
