Subseries A. Account Books includes 17 oversized volumes of ledgers, journals, and memos regarding ships’ cargo and sales of various sundries. Additionally, eleven boxes include smaller ledgers and journals. Included with these small ledgers and bank books is an almanac kept by William R. Haskell in 1844, in which Haskell records the arrivals and departures of ships, their destinations, and occasionally their captains or masters, cargo, and fate.
