The digitized volumes of the American State Papers<\/em> listed below, as well as the two volumes of The<\/em> Spanish Regime in Missouri<\/em> have been re-OCRed using ABBYY Finereader 15 and split into their individual documents for these projects. The documents are not perfectly clean, but there are far fewer errors than can be found in the previously OCRed volumes available on HathiTrust and the Internet Archive. Each document’s filename is an abbreviation of the volume in which it was found and the document number from the volume’s table of contents to make cross referencing easier.

For example, Josiah Harmar writes to his wife Sally Harmar about how much he loves and misses her. However, he also tells her to bring \u201csome vegetables with thee, and the whole baggage & don\u2019t forget butter\u201d (Josiah Harmar to Sally Harmar, 01\/10\/1785). Although his letters show devotion, they also highlight the idea that Josiah is in charge of giving directives to his wife, suggesting men being the leader of their households even while they are away from their families. At the same time, Josiah Harmar also eases his wife\u2019s fears by informing her of his whereabouts and he tells her to not \u201cfear support\u201d because he is well (Josiah Harmar to Sally Harmar, 03\/08\/1786). Josiah\u2019s letter implies as long as he was healthy and able, his wife did not need to fear not gaining support. This idea that women needed support from men is also implied in the letters from Mary Keating to her cousin Anthony Wayne as Mary, a widow, hopes that Anthony can assist her in returning to her native land. In her letter, she praises him multiple times and reminds him of their cousinship in order to gain his favor (Mary Keating to Anthony Wayne, 04\/07\/1794).<\/p>\n\n\n\n Armstrong, John.
