Abstract:
William A. Graham, Willie Person Mangum, George E. Badger, and Thomas L. Clingman, men of high influence and public attainment, are often overlooked for their contributions to the history of North Carolina. Involved in statewide legislature and serving as either governor, constitutional lawyer, presidential candidate, or aspirant for the position as Justice of the United States Supreme Court, each of these four men are deserving of recognition for their public service to the peoples of North Carolina.
