John Ephraim Thomas Milsaps - bibliophile, salvationist, traveler and
diarist - was born in Houston, Texas on January 3, 1852. After leaving his home
as a young man to seek his fortune in western mining, Milsaps joined the
Salvation Army in 1883 and remained in its service until his retirement.
Milsaps died in Houston on November 29, 1932. As a professional salvationist,
Major Milsaps travelled widely in this country and abroad as a Salvation Army
organizer and (San Francisco) WAR CRY editor. He was among the first
representatives of the Army in Hawaii in the 1890's and was the army's
spokesman in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War and the subsequent
Filipino insurrection.
Return to the Table of Contents
Along the way Major Milsaps kept a meticulous seventy-three volume
diary which chronicles not only his army activities, but also a host of general
observations useful to researchers. In addition, the Milsaps Papers contain
extensive scrapbooks of personal and salvationist material, personal
correspondence and an extensive photographic collections. Similarly, the papers
contain a significant body of Salvation Army literature and ephemera unique in
this country. When the only complete "run" of the WAR CRY in existence and
Milsaps' personal library in Special Collections were added to the Milsaps
collection holdings, it became one of the most significant bodies of Salvation
Army materials in the United States.
Finally, the collection includes certain materials that may prove
useful to researchers concerned neither with Milsaps personally or the
Salvation Army in general. The Milsaps Papers contain, for example, the Major's
collection of autographs, many of which bear on nineteenth century American
politics, especially in the state of Ohio. Also in the collection is a group of
scrapbooks dealing with such diverse topics as the Galveston Storm of 1900 and
the San Francisco Earthquake. Of unusual interest too is the body of materials
Major Milsaps collected in the Philippines during the Spanish-American War
which may aid some scholars interested in that conflict or the subsequent
insurrection. There is also an extensive collection of materials relating to
the history of Slavery.

Houston Public Library
The Japanese color prints were formerly shelved with the
Milsaps books in the stacks. They were unfolded, repaired by Charles Arbore,
and encapsulated.
The religious papers and journals were formerly listed under
Series F (Miscellaneous), Box 2, "Evangelical Newspapers, ca. 1900." The
Philippine newspapers were in the same box, but do not appear to be religious
papers. The other items were formerly listed under Series F (Miscellaneous),
Box 1, folders 8 ("Civil War Commission") and 9 (Miscellaneous Documents").
They have been taken out of folders, encapsulated and placed in the Map Case,
along with the religious papers, the newspapers, the Japanese prints, the map
of Milsap's travels, and the 1897 drawing of Milsaps made by Leon Boiller, and
the photo of Milsaps in old age.

The Milsaps diaries were microfilmed as part of a cooperative effort
between the Houston Metropolitan Research Center and the Salvation Army
Archives in New York. As part of the project, the Salvation Army produced these
microfilm copies for use by HMRC patrons.
