"Picking Cotton", Marshall, Texas

Color tinted halftone postcard showing people picking cotton in a field near Marshall, Texas. A basket full of cotton is in the foreground, and behind it two Black workers stand next to another full basket with a white man holding a note pad standing next to them. Behind them to the right is a wagon onto which cotton is being loaded. Many other people are in the field picking. A woman wearing a large sunbonnet and and a child are in the foreground on the left, putting cotton into a sack. In the background a man on a white horse is watching the work. Printed on the top of the image is the title, "Picking Cotton, Marshall, Texas." The words "Marshall, Texas" are printed in a different font and ink, making it possible that the image was a stock image that could be customized for different locations, but the message on the back says that the field was located near Marshall. Printed on the back to the left of the message section: "78.-17. I P C & N Co. Illustrated Postal Card Co. New York. Made in Germany." There is a postmark on the back, but the year is incomplete. …

"But a Mournful Remedy": Divorce in Two Texas Counties, 1841-1880 (open access)

"But a Mournful Remedy": Divorce in Two Texas Counties, 1841-1880

Little scholarship has been dedicated to nineteenth-century Texas family life and no published scholarship to date has addressed the more specific topic of divorce. This study attempts to fill that gap in the historiography through a quantitative analysis of 373 divorce actions filed in Washington and Harrison Counties. The findings show a high degree of equity between men and women in court decisions granting divorces, and in property division and custody rulings. Texas women enjoyed a relatively high degree of legal and personal autonomy, which can be attributed, in part, to a property-rights heritage from Spanish civil law.
