The Zebulon Baird Vance Papers are housed in the North Carolina Digital Collections and encompass a wide range of materials related to Vance’s life and career. Vance served as a congressman, governor, and U.S. senator, and his papers include early letters from his student days at the University of North Carolina, correspondence from his military service during the Civil War, and materials from his postwar political career. The collection offers valuable insights into the political and social dynamics of 19th-century North Carolina and the broader American South.
