Collection Overview
The Asa and Elna Spaulding
Papers, 1909-1997 and undated, bulk
1935-1983, document an African American family's lifelong involvement in the business, political, educational, religious, and social life of Durham, N.C. The Spauldings were active in a broad
range of political bodies, businesses, civic groups, and
activist organizations, including among many others the
Durham County Board of Commissioners and the National
Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and were
among the co-founders of Women-in-Action for the Prevention
of Violence and Its Causes, Inc. Their long record of
accomplishment in the areas of employment, political
representation, civil rights, race relations, and women's
rights is documented by the collection's rich variety of
correspondence, writings and speeches, printed materials, clippings,
photographs, audiovisual items, and memorabilia.
The collection is divided into two subgroups. The Asa Spaulding Subgroup is arranged in nine series: Correspondence, Writings and Speeches, Organizations, North Carolina Mutual Files, Insurance Files, Subject Files, Photographic Materials, and Audiovisual Materials. The Elna Spaulding Subgroup. is arranged in six series: Correspondence, Writings and Speeches, Organizations, Subject Files, Photographic Materials, and Audiovisual Materials.
Asa Spaulding Subgroup Overview
The Asa Spaulding
Subgroup, 1909-1984 and
undated, documents Mr. Spaulding's career as an
insurance executive and his lifelong activism in civil
rights, education, employment, and other work related to
minorities' rights. While serving in various capacities in
Durham's North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance Company,
Spaulding was also instrumental in the development of other
local businesses such as the Mechanics and Farmers Bank as
well as being active in a number of life insurance
organizations at the national level, including the National
Insurance Association and the Life Insurance Association of
America. As his business career developed, culminating in
his becoming the Mutual's fifth president in 1958, his
national and international reputation also grew, especially
in the areas of civil rights and race relations. This led
to his serving on a number of government commissions and
task forces and in various organizations concerned with urban affairs. Among the most important of these were the American delegation to
a UNESCO conference in India and the National Urban League. Spaulding also maintained
lifelong ties to the academic and religious communities. At
various times he served on the boards of a number of
universities, including North Carolina Central and
Shaw; in addition he had a long involvement with the Omega Psi Phi fraternity. He was active all his adult life not only in his local
church, White Rock Baptist Church, but also in national groups such
as the National Conference of Christians and Jews.
The Correspondence
Series is characterized not by its depth of material for
any one correspondent but rather its reflection of the breadth of Spaulding's
contacts in business, government, politics, and education.
Among the many contacts represented here are North Carolina governors, United States
senators and congressmen, and all American presidents from the 1940s
through the 1970s. The Writings
and Speeches Series contains Spaulding's articles, opinion
columns, press releases, speeches, and other works on a
wide variety of topics, including civil rights, economics,
education, insurance, principles of business management,
race relations, and his travels abroad as a
representative of the United States and UNESCO. There are
also many of his introductions of speakers at public events and
tributes to friends and political figures. A highlight of
this series is the wealth of material about Spaulding's
own life and career. Most of this was gathered by him for a planned though unpublished
autobiography; it consists of correspondence, drafts, interviews, printed
material, and a variety of anecdotes and personal stories,
The Organizations
Series is by far the largest series in the subgroup.
It documents how far and wide Spaulding's interests and
activities ranged beyond his career in the insurance industry,
particularly his support of and agitation for civil rights and related
issues and organizations. Series highlights include
material about the following topics and organizations: his tenure on the board of trustees for the
Legal Defense Committee of the NAACP; his work as a member
of the North Carolina Advisory Committee to the U.S.
Commission on Civil Rights; his work with the Women and
Minority Directors Seminar (an attempt in the early 1970s
to encourage organizations and businesses to hire more
minorities at the management level); his activities as an
American representative to a UNESCO delegation in the
1950s; and his 1971 mayoral election campaign in Durham. Also to be found here is a collection of materials about White Rock Baptist Church, of
which Spaulding was a long time member and director. White
Rock Baptist Church was prominent in civil rights activities in North
Carolina and hosted many guest speakers.
Spaulding's career in the insurance industry is
documented by two series, the North
Carolina Mutual Files and the Insurance Files. Spaulding was the
actuary for the North Carolina Mutual Life Insurance
Company (Durham, N.C.), in the 1930s, its actuary and
vice-president in the 1940s, and its fifth president from 1956-1967.
Thus the series documents not only Spaulding's career, but
the development of the company over several decades into
the largest African American-owned business in the world. A particular
focus of this series is the dedication of the company's new
building in downtown Durham in 1966, probably the major
event of Spaulding's tenure as president. The
Insurance Files series reflects
his activities in the industry beyond his positions at North Carolina Mutual. A particularly rich group of the papers documents his work with the
National Insurance Association (NIA), of which Spaulding was
president in the 1940s. Formerly known as the National Negro Insurance Association, the NIA was an organization of officers of black-owned American insurance companies.
Several smaller series broaden the picture of
Spaulding's life and career. The Subject Files contain general
biographical data as well as more information about his
travels and his campaigns for Durham County Commissioner
and Mayor of Durham in the late 1960s and early 1970s. The
Photographic Materials Series
also documents his travels as well as some of the history
of North Carolina Mutual, especially the dedication of the
new home office building in 1966. The subject matter of the
Audiovisual Materials Series is largely biographical or autobiographical. In addition to recordings of some of Spaulding's speeches and public interviews, this series also contains several recordings he made that are apparently materials he was gathering for his planned autobiography.
Elna Spaulding Subgroup Overview
The Elna Spaulding
Subgroup, 1909-1997 and undated, documents Mrs. Spaulding's activism for
civil rights for minorities and women and her career in
local politics. Although the material spans almost sixty
years, the bulk of it is from the late 1960s through the
early 1980s. The Correspondence
Series contains both personal and professional
letters that give an indication of her involvement in local
and state politics, advocacy for various groups including
women, African Americans, children, and the elderly. Some
of the organizations that appear in this series also appear
in the Organizations Series.
Although some correspondence may appear in the latter
series, in general this material is not addressed to or
from Mrs. Spaulding individually, but rather is
documentation of each organization's work, including
meeting agendas and minutes, financial reports, annual
reports, and a wide range of planned activities. The papers
of the Durham County Board of Commissioners provide the
most detailed picture of Mrs. Spaulding's political
activity. Her other work has focused on attempts to break
down barriers between various groups and their rights.
Involvement in these issues, including women's employment, women's rights, and
public health, is highlighted by the material from
Women-in-Action for the Prevention of Violence and its
Causes, of which she was the founder--in 1968--and first
president, as well as such organizations as the Lincoln Community Health Center. The Subject Files
round out the picture of her career, particularly in
documenting her campaigns for public office in the 1970s
and 1980s.

North Carolina Mutual Files Series, 1911-1979, bulk 1945-1979
Material documenting the full scope of the
North Carolina Mutual Insurance Company's activities across
more than half a century of its existence. A highlight of
the series is the material relating to the groundbreaking
and dedication of the company's new home office
(1963-1966), a watershed event in the company's history.
For this event, most material is filed under the heading
"Dedication of Home Office Building," but some material
also appears under "Home Office," a more general heading
for materials about the operations of the company's Durham
headquarters over a period of some forty years. Other major
groups of material in the series are "Board Meetings" and "Reports" of
various kinds, including actuarial reports and reports to
policyholders. Folder titles are mainly topical subjects but may
also include names of departments, individuals, and company
publications. Arranged alphabetically by
subject.

Correspondence
Processing Note: Spaulding sent out a
large volume of correspondence in preparation for the
dedication of the new Home Office Building, much but not
all of it as form letter invitations to a wide variety of
businesspeople, government officials, and various
celebrities. The correspondence listed under "Dedication of
Home Office Building" is filed chronologically, with
folders divided according to whether they are general
correspondence (labeled "General Correspondence"), or
correspondence generated by these form letters (labeled as
"Form letter"). For a particular month, General
Correspondence is filed first, followed by the form letters
and responses. Only a sample of each form letter is
retained in each folder. The correspondence of addressees
who replied, often attached to further correspondence from
Spaulding, follows the sample of the form letter. The names
of addressees who did not reply are listed on a separate
sheet in that folder.

Processing note: the papers of the
National Insurance Association (formerly known as the
National Negro Insurance Association) begin with
twenty-three chronologically arranged folders of general
files that contain correspondence, annual reports, printed
material, and other documents. These files are followed by
several more boxes arranged alphabetically in various
subcategories, including correspondence, financial papers,
and reports among many others. Researchers searching for a
particular kind of document should thus refer to both the
categorized files as well as the appropriate time period in
the initial run of chronological files.
