Before his death, George Wythe bequeathed his books to his friend and former student, Thomas Jefferson:
I give my books and small philosophical apparatus to Thomas Jefferson, President of the United States of America: a legacie considered abstractlie, perhaps not deserving a place in his musaeum, but, estimated by my good will to him, the most valuable to him of any thing which I have the power to bestow.[1]
Wythe's executor, William DuVal created an inventory before turning the collection over to George Jefferson, the president's cousin and agent, who received the items and sent the inventory to Washington, D.C.[2] DuVal's inventory has not been found, but in 2008, while examining a manuscript book catalog which Jefferson kept from the late 1770s through 1812,[3] Endrina Tay and Jeremy Dibbel, librarians from Monticello's Jefferson Library and the Massachusetts Historical Society, discovered a different inventory—one Thomas Jefferson composed as he decided what to do with individual titles from Wythe's Library.[4] Jefferson divided the list into nine sections. Seven of these sections are headed by the name(s) of recipients, the other two—for Dabney Carr and Jefferson himself—have no headers.
