I have found helpful resources in the Thomas Cooper Library (USC) in Columbia. I would search the university library where you are researching. Check dissertations too. Also try WolrdCat to see any publications that circulate. Example: http://www.worldcat.org/search?qt=worldcat_org_all&q=freedmen%27s+bureau+labor+contractsRobin R.

Reading through the labor contracts now for Columbia/Richland. As your other readers have commented, brings it all into very clear relief. Are you aware of any scholarly articles or books which have done a thorough labor history treatment of these agreements? If I'm correct, these agreements set the stage for the share croppers' situation?
