The Roddey Family Papers consist of photocopied genealogical materials relating primarily to the Roddey and Wylie families, as well as allied families including Edwards, Riley, Hopkins, Webb, Rosan, Taylor, Strachan, Mitchell, Chesney, Barnett, and Downes. The materials appear to have been compiled by genealogist Wade B. Roddey.
The collection is composed entirely of photocopies and includes correspondence from Wade B. Roddey to family members concerning Roddey and Wylie genealogy, as well as correspondence from W. H. Edwards containing a historical account titled “Capt. W. H. Edwards Related Some History in Connection with This Prominent Family—Descendants of Peter Wylie.” Also included are a photocopy of a photograph of the Roddey Store in Rock Hill, South Carolina, and photocopies of a June 14, 1909, article from The Record titled “The Death of Captain W. L. Roddey,” concerning William Lyle Roddey (1834–1909).
