(The following study of Quakerism in the South has been en...)
The following study of Quakerism in the South has been entitled Southern Quakers and Slavery, for the reason that slavery was the subject which differentiated Friends in the South from other religious bodies. It was opposition to slavery that made Southern Quakerism what it was; without this opposition Quakers would have been comparatively unnoticed in the presence of larger and more powerful denominations. A gain, these pages deal with the Society in Virginia, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Tennessee. It was not thought well to include the Baltimore Yearly Meetings, for the reason that these lie only in part in Maryland, and extending into Pennsylvania, where the emancipation sentiment was strong, there was not the same heroism implied in opposition to slavery as in the more southern Yearly Meetings. Further, the Baltimore Yearly Meetings did not suffer so severely from the westward migration which was superinduced by slavery. The institution of slavery differentiates Quakers from other denominations; the effects of slavery differentiate the meetings in Virginia, the Carolinas and Georgia from those to the northward, hence the title of this book and its geographical limitations. As a rule the history of the earliest Southern Friends has been either misrepresented or ignored, or both. And the importance of that great wave of Quaker migration, rising in Pennsylvania, striking Maryland about 1725, and spending its dying power on the colonization of Georgia, 1770-75, seems never to have been duly appreciated.

Stephen Beauregard Weeks was born in Pasquotank County, N. C. , of English and Huguenot ancestors resident in the locality since the first half of the eighteenth century. Bereft in infancy of his parents, James Elliott Weeks, a planter, and Mary Louisa (Mullen) Weeks, he was reared in the nearby farmhouse of his father's sister and her husband, Robertson Jackson.
After attending neighborhood schools and the noted Horner School at Henderson, where he received his first real intellectual impulse, Weeks entered the University of North Carolina in 1882 and was graduated in 1886 with honors. A year later he received the degree of M. A. and in 1888 that of Ph. D. in English, German, and Latin. His compilation of the Register of Members of the Philanthropic Society (Raleigh, 1887) strengthened his interest in North Carolina history, which was fixed as the field of his life's work by study under Herbert Baxter Adams at the Johns Hopkins University. There after three years' study he received the degree of Ph. D. in 1891.
He was professor of history and political science at Trinity College (later Duke University) from 1891 until his resignation in 1893 resulting from a faculty quarrel with the president. In the autumn he returned to the Johns Hopkins University as a fellow by courtesy for a year's study and research. Already his skill and industry in research had produced The Press of North Carolina in the Eighteenth Century (1891), "The Lost Colony of Roanoke: Its Fate and Survival" (Papers of the American Historical Association, October 1891), "The Religious Development in the Province of North Carolina" (Johns Hopkins University Studies in Historical and Political Science, May-June 1892), "Church and State in North Carolina" (Ibid. , 1893), "General Joseph Martin and the War of the Revolution in the West" (Annual Report of the American Historical Association, 1893), and "The History of Negro Suffrage in the South" (Political Science Quarterly, December 1894). From 1894 to 1899 he held a position in the United States Bureau of Education at Washington, performing editorial work on the annual reports of the commissioner and other bureau publications, and carrying on historical research, the chief results of which were "The Beginnings of the Common School System in the South" (Report of the Commissioner of Education, 1896-97) and "Confederate Text-books". Additional publications of this period were A Bibliography of the Historical Literature of North Carolina (1895), "Libraries and Literature in North Carolina in the Eighteenth Century" (Annual Report of the American Historical Association, 1895), "The University of North Carolina in the Civil War", and his largest and best-known work, Southern Quakers and Slavery (1896). Weeks was one of the founders of the Southern History Association at Washington in 1896, a member of its administrative council, and a frequent contributor to its Publications (1897 - 1907). Compelled by impaired health to change his residence, he entered the United States Indian Service in 1899; and, for eight years as teacher and superintendent in Indian schools at Santa Fé, N. M. , and San Carlos, Arizona, he waged a successful struggle with disease, enduring with fortitude the interruption of his work and interests. In 1907 he returned to North Carolina, where he was busy for two years with editorial work on the Biographical History of North Carolina, edited by S. A. Ashe, to which he contributed many signed sketches. Following a two-year principalship of the high school at Trinity, he again accepted a research position in the Bureau of Education at Washington, for which he studied the history of public school education in a number of states. Over a period of years he compiled an index to the North Carolina census of 1790 (State Records, vol. XXVI, 1905) and the monumental Index to the Colonial and State Records of North Carolina, in the last volume of which is an extensive survey of the colonial and state records of North Carolina. Co"rdinate with Weeks's interest in historical research and writing was his life-long zeal in collecting North Carolina books, pamphlets, and manuscripts, and in compiling an exhaustive and critical bibliography of North Carolina. After his death at his home in Washington on May 3, 1918, the Weeks collection of Caroliniana, comprising 10, 000 books and pamphlets, and the incomplete bibliography were acquired by the University of North Carolina.

Weeks was twice married: first, on June 12, 1888, to Mary Lee Martin of Chapel Hill, who died in 1891, and second, on June 28, 1893, to Sallie Mangum Leach of Trinity, granddaughter of Willie Person Mangum.
