Faded three-line pencil inscription upon front flyleaf: "Mary W. Brownrigg | Presentia [?] | By Jno. H. Brownrigg Oct. 1860." Columbus, Mississippi physician Jonathan Brownrigg (1829-1902), or John Brownrigg, enlisted in the Confederate Army as a private in February 1861 but was eventually promoted within the CSA Medical Department to Chief Surgeon of the Department of Alabama, Mississippi and East Louisiana. Jonathan Brownrigg was one of seven children of General Richard Thomas Brownrigg (1793-1847) and his wife, Mary Winifred Hoskins Brownrigg. Presumably the book's inscribee, Mary W. Brownrigg, was the Doctor's mother although the lack of a maternal salutation opens the possibility that the book was for another relation - perhaps a sister. The Brownrigg family moved from Edenton, North Carolina to Columbus, Lowndes County, Mississippi in 1835 and established a 2000 acre cotton plantation and resided at their manor home Temple Heights which still stands today. General Brownrigg achieved local prominance as a city council member, a director of the Tombigbee Railroad and Banking Company and a co-founder of the Columbus Female Institute (now Mississippi University for Women). The Waddell surname on the aforementioned front free endpaper inscription is also a Brownrigg relation. A fair copy of a standard antiquarian edition of Moore's poetry.…
