George Anderson Papers 1813-1865 1813-1833

The George Anderson Papers offer a view of the life of one of the earliest settlers in Sandusky- the city's first physician and its second mayor. The documents in this collection offer information about Dr. Anderson's activities, primarily in his role as a political leader in this newly-settled area. These items were donated to the library in 1937 by Dr. Marjorie Anderson, great-granddaughter of Dr. George Anderson. (Marjorie Anderson was chair of the English Department at Hunter College in New York when she died in 1954.)
