Papers, 1706-1916.

The Samuel Ludlow Frey Papers consist of correspondence, financial records, land records, and legal records, related to the Frey and collateral families as well as materials he used in his research on the history of the Mohawk Valley. Several members of the Frey family were lawyers, hence, there is a strong representation of court-related papers, introducing personalities outside of the Frey family and Samuel Ludlow Frey's interest in early Montgomery county history. The collection also includes an extensive amount of genealogical research materials collected and compiled by Frey.
