Materials collected by George Stuart include papers related to several early Maya scholars and archaeologists, such as M. Latour Allard, Guillermo Dupaix, Edward King (Lord Kingsborough), Augustus Le Plongeon, William H. Prescott, Ephraim George Squier, John Lloyd Stephens, and Jean Frederic Waldeck; papers related to archaeologists of the southeastern United States, such as John P. Rogan and Cyrus Thomas; papers concerning the history of South Carolina, specifically Camden, S.C.; Civil War and Confederate papers, including engravings, newspapers, and miscellaneous documents; and other items, such as an 1869 diary of polar explorer Adolphus Greely written while traveling in the United States, letterhead of Adolf Hitler, a 1939 issue of "Family Circle" featuring the first published notice of "Gone With the Wind," and the first issue of "People Magazine." Also included are selected eighteenth and nineteenth-century newspapers from Hartford, Conn., Philadelphia, Pa., and Oneida, N.Y., and 1864-1866 newspapers from Campeche, Carmen, Merida, and Yucatan, Mexico. There is also a collection of copies of Augustus Le Plongeon and Alice Dixon Le Plongeon photographs compiled by archaeologist Lawrence G. Desmond. The photographs depict Chichen Itza, Uxmal, and other pre-Columbian archeological sites in the Yucatan Peninsula of Mexico and Belize, 1873-1885. Also included are the papers of Jerome O. Kilmartin, a surveyor who mapped Chichen Itza and other Maya sites in the 1920s. The Kilmartin materials, 1922-2002, contain correspondence, diaries, photographs, and other items related to mapping projects at Chichen Itza, Mexico, and Lake Peten and Tikal, Guatemala, sponsored by the Carnegie Institution of Washington. Included is material relating to a 1929 flight over the Yucatan area by Charles Lindbergh and Mayanist Alfred Vincent Kidder. There are also papers of brothers William Law, printer and commission merchant, and Andrew Law, musician and composer, both of Cheshire, Conn. These materials, 1782-1820, consist mostly of letters written to the brothers. Letters to Andrew Law deal largely with the success of his singing schools and the sale of his tune-books. Other letters, especially from Drayton M. Curtis, offer criticism of Law's innovative staff-less notation style and his modification of popular hymns. Letters to William Law, representing Minturn and Champlin of New York in Copenhagen, Denmark, and at other ports in Europe during the War of 1812, generally discuss the impact of the war on international trade and the prospects for peace between Great Britain and the United States.
