Her parents were physician Hayes Joseph Burnett and tennis player Roberta (\"Bertha\") Ball Burnett. She was the eldest of four children and grew up in Montclair, New Jersey. ","She graduated from Miner Normal School, Washington D.C. in 1925 with the intention of becoming a teacher. Wesley worked as a library assistant in the Miner Normal School library where she worked with librarian Lula V. Allan (1879-1968) who encouraged her to pursue a career in library science. 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. After receiving his master's degree from Yale University in 1913, he taught at Howard University from 1913 until 1942. 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. She also continued to write articles and books.","In 1994 President Bill Clinton presented her with the National Endowment for the Humanities' Charles Frankel Award. 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.

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. She also continued to write articles and books.","In 1994 President Bill Clinton presented her with the National Endowment for the Humanities' Charles Frankel Award. 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.

Edith M. Thomas, the State Supervisor of Home Economics, chaired the meeting, and became its first president, serving from 1919 to 1920. The FHEA was founded as an affiliate of the American Home Economics Association (AHEA), formed in 1908. According to its Constitution, the FHEA was to reach its goal \"by the study of problems connected with the family and the institutional household; by improving and extending home economics instruction in schools and colleges and in adult education programs; by improving professional education for all home economists by encouraging and aiding investigation and research in problems of home economics, and by issuing publications and holding meetings through which there may be wider and better understanding of the value of home economics interests.\"\n The first FHEA district association was the West Coast Home Economics Association, that first met in April 1921. The next groups to organize were Lake, Seminole, Orange, and Osceola Counties in 1923, the South East Florida Association (Dade, Palm Beach, Broward, Martin, and Okeechobee Counties) in 1925-1926, the Florida Central East Coast Association (St. Johns, Flagler, Volusia, Brevard Counties) in 1927, the Central Association (Alachua, Putnam, Dixie, Columbia, Levy, Marion, Gilchrist, and Bradford Counties) in 1928, the Capital City Association (Leon, Jefferson, Gadsden, Wakulla, Liberty, Franklin, Jackson, Suwanee, Madison, Taylor, Lafayette, and Hamilton Counties) in 1929, and the Ridgeland Association (Polk, Highlands, De Soto, and Hardee) and North Florida districts (Nassau, Duval, Baker Counties), organized in 1930. The objectives of the district associations, according to Boletha Frojen, President of the Florida Home Economics Association 1928-1930, were \"contact with our fellow workers - home makers, home demonstration agents, lunch room or institutional managers, dietitians, research workers, home economics women in business, and teachers - discuss problems in common, in working toward the same goal - that of improving living conditions and home making.\"\n Among its accomplishments during the 1920s and 1930s were the compilation of a list of trained women who held positions in hospitals and educational institutions in Florida, the creation of tentative standards of accomplishment for high school classes in Home Economics, the compilation of data concerning the relationship of the Home Economics teacher to the health program in the schools, and the promotion of the George Reed Act (1929), establishing a federal law furthering vocational agriculture and home economics education in Florida by assuring home economics a fairer share of future federal funding.\nBy the 1940s, the Association had grown. Its membership comprised professional home economists, public school and college teachers, home demonstration agents and extension specialists, Farm Security Administration supervisors, demonstrators of food, clothing, and commercial equipment, dietitians, and homemakers.\n Instructors at Florida State College for Women actively participated in the FHEA. Faculty members included School of Home Economics Dean Margaret R.

Edith M. Thomas, the State Supervisor of Home Economics, chaired the meeting, and became its first president, serving from 1919 to 1920. The FHEA was founded as an affiliate of the American Home Economics Association (AHEA), formed in 1908. According to its Constitution, the FHEA was to reach its goal \"by the study of problems connected with the family and the institutional household; by improving and extending home economics instruction in schools and colleges and in adult education programs; by improving professional education for all home economists by encouraging and aiding investigation and research in problems of home economics, and by issuing publications and holding meetings through which there may be wider and better understanding of the value of home economics interests.\"\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe first FHEA district association was the West Coast Home Economics Association, that first met in April 1921. The next groups to organize were Lake, Seminole, Orange, and Osceola Counties in 1923, the South East Florida Association (Dade, Palm Beach, Broward, Martin, and Okeechobee Counties) in 1925-1926, the Florida Central East Coast Association (St. Johns, Flagler, Volusia, Brevard Counties) in 1927, the Central Association (Alachua, Putnam, Dixie, Columbia, Levy, Marion, Gilchrist, and Bradford Counties) in 1928, the Capital City Association (Leon, Jefferson, Gadsden, Wakulla, Liberty, Franklin, Jackson, Suwanee, Madison, Taylor, Lafayette, and Hamilton Counties) in 1929, and the Ridgeland Association (Polk, Highlands, De Soto, and Hardee) and North Florida districts (Nassau, Duval, Baker Counties), organized in 1930. The objectives of the district associations, according to Boletha Frojen, President of the Florida Home Economics Association 1928-1930, were \"contact with our fellow workers - home makers, home demonstration agents, lunch room or institutional managers, dietitians, research workers, home economics women in business, and teachers - discuss problems in common, in working toward the same goal - that of improving living conditions and home making.\"\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAmong its accomplishments during the 1920s and 1930s were the compilation of a list of trained women who held positions in hospitals and educational institutions in Florida, the creation of tentative standards of accomplishment for high school classes in Home Economics, the compilation of data concerning the relationship of the Home Economics teacher to the health program in the schools, and the promotion of the George Reed Act (1929), establishing a federal law furthering vocational agriculture and home economics education in Florida by assuring home economics a fairer share of future federal funding.\nBy the 1940s, the Association had grown. Its membership comprised professional home economists, public school and college teachers, home demonstration agents and extension specialists, Farm Security Administration supervisors, demonstrators of food, clothing, and commercial equipment, dietitians, and homemakers.\n\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eInstructors at Florida State College for Women actively participated in the FHEA. Faculty members included School of Home Economics Dean Margaret R. Sandels (FHEA President, 1925-1926), Professors Jennie Tilt (FHEA President 1927-1928), Home Economics Professor Dr. Ruth Connor (FHEA President, 1940-1942), Associate Professor and Dietitian Anna May Tracy (FHEA President, 1931-1932 and Acting State Supervisor for Home Economics Education in 1939), Laura Veach Clark, Henrietta Sivyer, and Assistant Professor Leila Venable. FSCW's Home Demonstration Division staff active in this organization included Flavia Gleason, Virginia P. Moore, Ruby McDavid, Mary A.

His father's family were early settlers of Lake County and his mother, the former Carrie Phillips, was a member of the pioneer Phillips family of Marion County.\n Dick was raised on a farm in the little community of Fellowship, near Ocala, where his father farmed and also taught school. Mr. Ervin attended school in several counties - the number of different schools being occasion­ed by the father's profession as teacher.\n In 1921 at the age of 16, he served as Engrossing Clerk for the Florida House of Representatives, youngest to hold this responsible position. He graduated from the Law College of the University of Florida in 1928 and engaged in the practice of law in Pinellas, Lee, and Putnam Counties until 1935.\n He married the former Frances Baker of Jacksonville in 1933 and the Ervins have have two children, Richard W. III and Sarah Eve.\n Mr. Ervin entered full time public service in 1935 as an attorney for the State Road Department. He served as Road Department Lawyer until August of 1943 then as Assistant Attorney General untill January 1945 when he became Secretary of the Florida Railroad Commission for six months. He resumed the position as Resident Attorney for the Road Department in 1945 until he resigned in January of 1948 to campaign successfully for the office of Attorney General.\n During these years of public service Mr. Ervin helped activate the roadside beautification program by the Road Department, served as legal counsel for the Overseas Highway Bridge District, drafted the law creat­ing the Department of Public Safety, and later served as its attorney.\n Mr. Ervin specialized in drafting complex legislative acts, assisted in drafting and securing passage of the law giving counties shares of gasoline tax, thus relieving them of staggering road bond indebtedness.\n His administration of the office of Attorney General from 1948-1964 was distinguished by the publication of the first original revision of the Florida Statutes since 1941, and by his drive to rid the State of Florida of organized bookmaking and illegal gambling activities. Because of his efforts in this field, Mr. Ervin has achieved national and state acclaim and was selected by the Junior Chamber of Commerce as the outstanding government official in the State in 1950. He has been prom­inent in the affairs of the National Association of Attorneys General.\n Richard Ervin has served on the Supreme Court from the time of his appointment and election in 1964 until his retirement January 7, 1975. As a judge he considers his years on the Supreme Court the most satisfying of his 40 years of public service. Ervin says of his contributions that he has tried to blow the chaff of judicial procedures so that the odds won't be so great against the average citizen, and feels that the law should try within reason to help people whose incomes are below the federal poverty threshold and the disadvantaged.","Original donations, MSS 74-7 and 75-9 were processed by Shirley Fogle and Sara Buckmaster, Spring 1975 (22,472 items).

His father's family were early settlers of Lake County and his mother, the former Carrie Phillips, was a member of the pioneer Phillips family of Marion County.\n Dick was raised on a farm in the little community of Fellowship, near Ocala, where his father farmed and also taught school. Mr. Ervin attended school in several counties - the number of different schools being occasion­ed by the father's profession as teacher.\n In 1921 at the age of 16, he served as Engrossing Clerk for the Florida House of Representatives, youngest to hold this responsible position. He graduated from the Law College of the University of Florida in 1928 and engaged in the practice of law in Pinellas, Lee, and Putnam Counties until 1935.\n He married the former Frances Baker of Jacksonville in 1933 and the Ervins have have two children, Richard W. III and Sarah Eve.\n Mr. Ervin entered full time public service in 1935 as an attorney for the State Road Department. He served as Road Department Lawyer until August of 1943 then as Assistant Attorney General untill January 1945 when he became Secretary of the Florida Railroad Commission for six months. He resumed the position as Resident Attorney for the Road Department in 1945 until he resigned in January of 1948 to campaign successfully for the office of Attorney General.\n During these years of public service Mr. Ervin helped activate the roadside beautification program by the Road Department, served as legal counsel for the Overseas Highway Bridge District, drafted the law creat­ing the Department of Public Safety, and later served as its attorney.\n Mr. Ervin specialized in drafting complex legislative acts, assisted in drafting and securing passage of the law giving counties shares of gasoline tax, thus relieving them of staggering road bond indebtedness.\n His administration of the office of Attorney General from 1948-1964 was distinguished by the publication of the first original revision of the Florida Statutes since 1941, and by his drive to rid the State of Florida of organized bookmaking and illegal gambling activities. Because of his efforts in this field, Mr. Ervin has achieved national and state acclaim and was selected by the Junior Chamber of Commerce as the outstanding government official in the State in 1950. He has been prom­inent in the affairs of the National Association of Attorneys General.\n Richard Ervin has served on the Supreme Court from the time of his appointment and election in 1964 until his retirement January 7, 1975. As a judge he considers his years on the Supreme Court the most satisfying of his 40 years of public service. Ervin says of his contributions that he has tried to blow the chaff of judicial procedures so that the odds won't be so great against the average citizen, and feels that the law should try within reason to help people whose incomes are below the federal poverty threshold and the disadvantaged.","Original donations, MSS 74-7 and 75-9 were processed by Shirley Fogle and Sara Buckmaster, Spring 1975 (22,472 items).
