He was also a member of the New York State Assembly, 1819-1820, and New York State Senate, 1830-1837.
Review:
The papers of Thomas Armstrong consist chiefly of correspondence related to his career in government and politics, particularly while serving as sheriff of Seneca County, and later of Wayne County. Other correspondence generally concerns various business and real estate interests of Armstrong. A number of these letters were from Gerrit Smith, a noted philanthropist and social reformer from Peterboro, New York.
