Topics include Lyne and Shackelford family genealogy, family financial and business matters, family property including "Willow Grove," the Monticello Association, and the University of Virginia, particularly the Alumni Association, the West Lawn Marching and Chowder Society, and the 1941 football team and its five year reunions.
