Scope and Contents

From the Series:

Series IV. Scrapbooks and Family Histories contains multiple family made scrapbooks and genealogical charts containing family history. There are some photographs contained in the scrapbooks, but they are predominantly composed of clippings and ephemera. These scrapbooks and albums were located together in the Brick House Library cabinets. They have been kept together to maintain their original order. Some of the materials contained in this series were conserved in 2006 by conservator Marie Oedel; her conservation proposals have been kept with these materials. There is also a scrapbook dedicated to lighthouse postcards in this series.
