Series IV. Miscellaneous Materials contains materials associated with Captain Berry, as well as material with no obvious association. Included are several Seaman’s Protection Certificates issued by the U.S. Customs Service, including Captain Berry’s (1854); a West African court summons dated April 18, 1860; memoranda, etc., for gold bullion deposited at the Philadelphia Mint, 1859-1862; a congressional constituent communication dated Philadelphia, 30 May 1798, outlining congressional action aimed at stemming hostile French actions against American shipping; a letter to Secretary of State William Marcy dated 21 August 1854; and a letter, in Portuguese, between C. Nobre and J. Morgan dated 8 April 1858 - these last three pieces appear to have no direct connection to A. W. Berry.
