Acquisition Information:
W&M Special Collections Research Center began acquiring and collecting Tyler family papers in 1922 and the collection has
grown considerably since. The vast majority of this collection was donated by generous family and friends of the Tyler family
between 1922 and 2002, with the bulk of the collection being donated to in 1949 by Mrs. Sue Ruffin Tyler and in 1955 by the
children of Lyon G. Tyler. Some materials in this collection were purchased by W&M Special Collections Research Center.
Lyon Gardiner Tyler was the son of John Tyler (1790-1862) and his second wife Julia Gardiner Tyler. He received a master's
degree from the University of Virginia and was professor at the College of William and Mary and principal of Memphis Academy.
He established a law practice in Richmond and served in the Virginia House of Delegates. He became president of William and
Mary in 1888, serving until 1919. Tyler married twice, to Anne Baker Tucker Tyler (1860-1921) and to Sue Ruffin Tyler who
died in 1953. Tyler founded the William and Mary Quarterly and Tyler's Quarterly and was the author of the Letters and Times
of the Tylers, Parties and Patronage in the United States, England in America and History of Virginia: Volume II The Federal
Period. He edited Men of Mark in Virginia, Narratives of Early Virginia and the Encyclopedia of Virginia Biography. Tyler
served as president of the College of William and Mary from 1888 until 1919.
Chiefly writings, ca. 1880-1935, of Lyon Gardiner Tyler, historian. Most concern Virginia history in the colonial period,
or defend his father, John Tyler, or defend the southern point of view in the Civil War. Includes an unpublished history of
the Virginia Line in the American Revolution. Also includes writings, 1921-1951, of his second wife, Sue Ruffin Tyler, and
of other authors.
