Invoice/account book, 1786-1791
Scope and Contents
SERIES II. Clifford Crowninshield Papers is comprised of ships papers, correspondence, letterbooks, account books, estate papers, and legal papers associated with this successful Salem merchant and ship master. A day book (1784-1789) mostly concerns personal matters but also holds some accounts for Clifford Crowninshield's (1699-1776) estates.
Clifford Crowninshield's (1762-1809) estate papers include correspondence with executors James Devereux and John Moriarty and deeds that also concern the estates of Crowninshield's forebears. Ships papers dated after 1809 (see Appendix I) relate to spoliation claims settled posthumously and therefore should be consulted in relation to Crowninshield's estate.
