Abbitt Collection Project

Students in the History 395: Historian’s Workshop Seminar are creating a digital collection that draws from the papers of Watkins Moorman Abbitt,  a University of Richmond law school graduate (class of ’31), who served in the U.S. Congress from 1948 to 1973.  The Abbitt Papers are housed in the Department of Special Collections, Boatwright Library at the University of Richmond.
