A three-page World War II letter from another relative of Gray, signed \"Buck,\" Philippine Islands, A.P.O. 715, (no date) to \"Dear Roy.\" The letter gives on-the-battle-field information about a campaign in the mountains, and states: \"...our planes bombed the mountains for several hours...afterwards we cut loose with everything we had, and the Inf. took the mountains with very little resistance...there were dead Japs every where. I have been lucky so far. Maybe after one more campaign I can come home...\"","3.

Russell Reaver, Associate Professor of English at Florida State University. \"Dr. Reaver's talk,\" the article stated, \"was based on a number of old letters written by the Blake and Cromartie families of Miccosukee, both local pioneer families. The letters, passed between Joel C. Blake, a lieutenant in the Confederate Army stationed in Virginia, and his wife and family on the Blake plantation, 'Blakey'. Dr. Reaver was given access to the letters by two of his students, descendants of the Blake and Cromartie families.\"","4. The fourth item of the collection is a letter written by the Hon. R.A.

Valente was born on August 3, 1921 in New York, New York, originally staying in an apartment in Brooklyn. His parents Ciro and Mary were Italian immigrants from the early 1900s, his father being a music professor and maestro while his mother worked as a finisher in a factory and was a member of the International Ladies' Garments Workers' Union. He had five siblings, however the first sibling died as an infant. His sisters Rosalie, otherwise known as Sally, and Carmela, also known as Lilly, both worked on Wall Street. His younger sister, Gina, was a musical prodigy, who started a prestigious musical career at the age of eight. Ralph was also a musician, having experience in playing the accordion and being the leader of his own musical trio. The family later moved to an apartment in Carnegie Hall.\n On December 12, 1943, Valente enlisted in the U.S. Army at the age of twenty-two. He started introductory training at Camp Upton, New York with his unit as a Private. During his training, he attained 185 points out of 200, earning the qualification of expert rifleman. On January 5, 1944, Valente and his unit transferred from Camp Upton to Camp Blanding, Florida two days later for advanced training. He was assigned to heavy artillery, which he and his unit were to maintain and operate both heavy machine guns and mortar guns. During this part of his training, he also studied for officer's training school, with the hopes of becoming an officer in his unit. However, he was not able to attain a rank past Private. During bivouac, he started having stomach problems, becoming so severe to the point where he was admitted to the hospital in Camp Blanding on April 26. However, the hospital staff could not find the source of the stomach issues, and he was released and transferred to a different unit on May 13. On May 27, Valente returned from bivouac and started studying to be a gunner or assistant gunner until he received orders to go on leave. \n During his training, Valente took every opportunity presented to him to write back home to his parents and sisters. In some cases, whenever his wife Millie visited the camp, she would often write to the Valente family instead.\n He returned home on leave until June 26, when he was sent to Fort George G. Meade to prepare for deployment in Europe. He arrived in England, where his unit was camped near London, and were later deployed to France. There, he fought in France as a member of Company A of the 318th Infantry Regiment, 80th Infantry Division, where he was wounded during fighting when his division, as a part of General Patton's Third Army, was taking part in pushing the Germans out of Northern France. He was awarded the Purple Heart on October 13th and was sent back to the front after recovering from his wounds. On November 9th, he was severly wounded in action during military operations along the Seille River in France. He passed away from his wounds on November 24th, 1944. He is buried along side his wife, Amelia, in Long Island National Cemetery, East Farmingdale, NY.","Transferred from the Institute on World War II and the Human Experience to FSU Libraries Special Collections \u0026 Archives in July 2022.","This collection relates to Ralph J.

Wesley enrolled in Howard University in 1926 and received a Bachelor of Arts degree in 1928. She then enrolled at Colombia University's School of Library Science where she received a Master's in Library Science in 1931. ","In 1929 Dorothy married artist and art history professor James Amos Porter (1905-1970) with whom she had her only daughter, Constance \"Coni\" Porter Uzelac (1939-2012). James A. Porter graduated with honors from Howard University in 1927 and began teaching art there the next semester. His classic book and standard reference work,  Modern Negro Art , proved to be one of the most informative sources to date on the creativity of the Black artists.","In 1930, Dorothy Porter began work as curator of the Moorland Foundation at Howard University, (now known as the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center) and worked to build the library's collections documenting African, African American, Afro-Caribbean and Afro-Hispanic history and culture. After becoming the Curator at Howard University in 1930, started thinking about how to catalog books by Black authors and related to Black history and culture. At the time, she recognized that the Dewey Decimal System only had two numbers (for \"Slavery\" and for \"Colonization\") under which all works related to Black people or Black authors could be cataloged. In response, during the first few years of her Curatorship, she created a new classification system that reflected the true breadth of the books available on topics related to Black people and by Black authors. She disseminated the classification system to other libraries, and published it in 1939. Porter worked at the Moorland-Spingarn Research Center until her retirement in 1973.","James Porter's died in 1970, and in 1979 Dorothy married Charles Harris Wesley (1891-1987), a noted historian, educator, and author.

Between 1920 and 1925, he also earned a Ph.D. from Harvard University, the fourth African American to do so. He served as President of Wilberforce University from 1942-1947 and of Central State College, Ohio from 1947 until 1965. ","Charles Harris Wesley authored more than 15 books on African-American history over the course of his career. His first book, Negro Labor in the United States, was hailed as one of the most useful works on the role of African-Americans in industry available in the 1920s. Dorothy worked with Charles on a variety of research projects even prior to their marriage, and continued to do so until Charles's death in 1987. ","After her retirement from Howard University in 1973, Dorothy Porter Wesley worked as a consultant for a variety of institutions and foundations such as the Radcliffe University's Black Women Oral History Archive.

Dorothy Porter Wesley died in Broward County, Florida in 1995.","The book  William Cooper Nell, Nineteenth-Century African American Abolitionist, Historian, Integrationist: Selected Writings 1832-1874  (2002) was the last research project that Charles and Dorothy worked on together, and was posthumously published by Dorothy's daughter, Constance Porter Uzelac. Uzelac worked as a medical librarian. After her mother's death, she became the Executive Director of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Archive and managed James A. Porter's art collection.","In 2000, Constance Uzelac worked with the Bienes Museum of the Modern Book, James Findlay, on an exhibition of her mother's collection that was displayed at the Broward County Main Library in February and March of 2001. Samuel F. Morrison, Director of the Broward County Library, was instrumental in bringing the collection to exhibition at the Bienes, and would further encourage the purchase of the materials from Uzelac for the newly-opened AARLCC Special Collections in December 2002. Constance later worked at Broward County Library, cataloging a portion of the Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection at the AARLCC Special Collections. Constance married Milan Uzelac in 1965. They had no children. She died in Broward County in 2012."],"prefercite_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eDorothy Porter Wesley Collection (AARLCC-2003.6), AARLCC Special Collections, Broward County Library.\u003c/p\u003e"],"prefercite_tesim":["Dorothy Porter Wesley Collection (AARLCC-2003.6), AARLCC Special Collections, Broward County Library."],"processinfo_html_tesm":["\u003cp\u003eThis collection received file level processing.
