HENRY CLAY WARMOUTH PAPERS HOLD NEW ORLEANS MINT INFORMATION

While looking up other things I came across a reference to an archive
that may hold some information of use to U.S. numismatic researchers.
It's the inventory of the Henry Clay Warmoth Papers and the Manuscripts
Department, University Library of the University of North Carolina
Warmouth was a plantation owner and governor of Louisiana.  Archive
folders 89, 94 and 96 contain the following:

Folder 89: 1891: July-September: Correspondence with E. M. Halford
and Secretary of the Treasury Charles Foster regarding appointments
to the United States Mint in New Orleans.

Folder 94: 1892: May: Of note is correspondence and other items related
to the administration of the United States Mint in New Orleans. A List
of Coiners and Adjusters at the U.S. Mint dated 6 May 1892 records names
of employees, party affiliations, and comments on work ethic.

Folder 96: 1892: 1-15 July: Correspondence mostly concerns administration
of the United States Mint at New Orleans and Republican Party politics
