Description	John Jervis was born in Marshall N. C., on March 10, 1909, to a family of educators. His grandfather Jervis was president of Mars Hill College. His father taught school briefly and then owned and edited newspapers in Marshall, Old Fort, and Bryson City, N. C. Jervis was an early employee of American Enka, where he worked from the late 1920s until he retired in 1966. During this time he was an officer in the local union at Enka, and simultaneously an officer in the Central Labor Union, organized in Asheville in 1881. Jervis became a trustee and delegate of the C.L.U. in 1940, secretary-treasurer in 1941, and president in 1946, a post he held continuously through the time of donation (1977), except for a two-year hiatus when he was absent from Asheville working with the furniture union. The John E. Jervis Labor Collection portrays the activities and concerns of labor unions in western North Carolina associated with the Central Labor Union of Asheville in the years from 1949 to 1977, with special emphasis on the years 1969-1977. The collection includes some correspondence, and much printed material, from local, state, and some national unions. It portrays union interest in local and state politics; recruitment techniques; and examples of contracts with such local companies as the Slosman Corporation, the William Brownell Company, American Enka, and others. The John E. Jervis Labor Collection arrived without any order apparent, so the material was arranged in the following series. Note that the order of the series is not consecutive in the same order with the document cartons; for example, Series One and Series Three are in M77.12.1, whereas series two is in M77.12.2, etc. The container numbers are included in the following series descriptions (see also the usual inventory container listings).
