Charles Stuart Booth (1804-1862) was a night watchman who lived and raised his family in the Brooklyn neighborhood of Williamsburg and worked in lower Manhattan. He and his wife, Lavinia Lyon Booth, had four children: Horace, Eliza (Lila, 1836-1900), Thomas (Tom), and Phoebe (1830-1912). The Charles Stuart Booth family papers and photographs span the period circa 1828 to 1906 and contain journals written by Charles Stuart Booth, in which he recorded events that transpired during his posts as a watchman, as well as family letters to and from Horace Booth while he served in the Union Army during the Civil War. The collection also contains two photograph albums and several loose photographs depicting members of the Booth family, as well as several members of families related to the Booths by marriage, including the Lockwood, Carrington, Seward, Shepard, Slauter, King, Mott, and Squires families.
