Anthony, Susan B. (Susan Brownell), 1820-1906. Papers, 1815-1961 (inclusive).

Title: Papers, 1815-1961 (inclusive).

This collection contains genealogies, diaries, correspondence, financial records, pamphlets, clippings, speeches, photographs, and memorabilia, and was used by Ida H.

There is, however, very little correspondence from the period 1851-1880. This collection does not represent the total surviving Anthony papers. Other collections are listed at the end of the Anthony article in Notable American Women.
