Title: Roland William Boyden papers, 1917-1923 (bulk), 1917-1947 (inclusive).

Papers cover the time period from 1917-1923 when Boyden was appointed to the positions first in Washington D.C. with the United States Food Administration, then at the American Relief Administration, and finally as unofficial United States representative to the meetings of the Reparations Commission in Paris and attendee at the World Financial Congress in Brussels in 1920. Letters to his family are especially expressive with personal comments, as well as packed with descriptive content and opinion concerning political, social, and economic issues concerning the United States and Europe for those years. Correspondence with others includes communiques and letters detailing official business of the United States State Department, as well as Boyden's personal opinions especially concerning difficulties with the League of Nations, the German economic crisis, and the negotiations of repayment of reparations from World War I. Beside correspondence, the volumes of bound material also include printed reports, clippings, and a few photographs. Recipients of his letters include family members such as Albert Boyden (his brother), Amy Lydia Hoag Boyden (his mother), Kate Foster Whitney Boyden (his wife), and others, as well as political and professional correspondents such as Charles J. Bullock, Sir John Bradbury, Calvin Coolidge, Ellis Loring Dresel, Charles E. Hughes, Herbert Hoover, Thomas W. Lamont, and many others. Each volume arrived paginated, containing a typescript subject index that highlighted the pages that contained important material. These loose pages were removed from the bound volumes and assembled into one index (see item (10)). Boyden's brother (and donor of papers) Albert Boyden, also added some autograph annotations to the volumes and to the index.
