Pat Allison's Papers and Voices from the Archives Collection
This ongoing project was created to stimulate interest in the South Texas Archives. It began as collaboration between the University Archivist, Lori Atkins and Patricia Allison, a writer for the Kingsville Record and Bishop News. In 2016 Lori asked Pat if she would be interested in researching collections at South Texas Archives and writing a monthly article in the local newspaper to highlight and describe the contents and families who donated these collections to the university archive. Historical events, local history of Texas A&M University-Kingsville and of this region of South Texas were part of these collections which would be of interest to both communities. The first article was published August 28, 2016 in the Sunday edition of the local newspaper under the title, 'Voices.' Other writings by Pat Allison beyond the 'Voices' articles were added in 2018.
