| Abstract: |
This collection is chiefly made up of materials collected by James R. Troyer in preparation for the composition of a biographical
article on Wilbur Fisk Massey. Massey had a varied career, working as a horticulturist, professor, and an agricultural journalist.
He taught at a wide variety of universities and schools. He spent 1889-1901 teaching at North Carolina College of Agriculture
and Mechanic Arts (later North Carolina State University), while also holding the position of horticulturist of the North
Carolina Agricultural Experiment Station. Massey left North Carolina to explore agricultural journalism, acting as editor
for the
Practical Farmer and going on to hold positions at several other publications. The personal material includes information
of a biographical nature, including Troyer's article on Massey. The professional series primarily focuses on Massey's work
at the North Carolina Experiment Station, but also includes information on his teaching experience at North Carolina State
College and his work in agricultural journalism. The photographs series includes portraits of Massey from about 1880.
