Series V. Personal Papers is organized into five subseries. Subseries A. Correspondence consists of Pingree’s personal correspondence with family members. Subseries B. Financial Records includes insurance policies on various dwellings, including rental properties and tannery and shoe shops; property tax receipts; Rowley Farm accounts; and memberships and subscriptions receipts. Subseries C. Real Estate Records consists of two volumes of books, deeds, leases, street plans, and papers relating to the sale of property by the estate of Amos Sheldon. Within the deeds folders are memorandums of agreement and rights of redemption. Subseries D. Diaries and Miscellaneous Ephemera contains personal items such as diaries, certificates, and correspondence collected by Pingree. The diaries are mainly records of weather, but there are some mentions of ship arrivals and departures. Subseries E. Family Member Papers contains some papers of Pingree’s uncle, Thomas Perkins, including bills and receipts and documents related to French spoliations. There are personal, financial, and estate papers for his sister Annar Pingree (1797-1875); real estate documents of his second cousin Asa Bixby Pingree (1818-1871); and receipts for his daughter Annar P. Peabody. This subseries also contains six memo books kept by an unidentified member of the extended Pingree family. The books were kept by a woman who is mostly based out of Salem and Topsfield but travels frequently to Andover, Wenham, and Boston. Please note that David Pingree was a trustee for the estate of Thomas Perkins (1758-1830). As a trustee, he administered a trust fund that was created for the six daughters of Thomas Perkins’ sister Sarah Perkins (1773-1837) and her husband Dominick Moore. Because the trust continued for so many years, David Pingree (1841-1932) also administered the estate and was the one to close out the trust. Documents relevant to the trust are included in David Pingree (1841-1932) Papers, MSS 905.
