Papers, 1700-1900.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122441819

The collection spans five generations of McIlvaine and related families, including the Rodman and Ruan families. The First Generation papers related primarily to the financial and estate affairs of Mary Shippen McIlvaine, wife of Dr. William McIlvaine, who was an early settler of Burlington, New Jersey. Also included here are Rodmand and Ruan family papers. The Second Generation papers consist of William McIlvaine's correspondence and professional papers, some of which concern the creation and publishing of his Perpetual Calendar and the correspondence and manuscript poetry of Ester Rodman McIlvaine. The Third Generation papers include Mary C.O. McIlvaine's incoming and outgoing correspondence with her brother, husband and children. William and Rodman McIlvaine were both civil engineers and Edward Shippen McIlvaine was a physician. The papers of the Fourth and Fifth Generations are miscellaneous family correspondence, printed material and genealogical notes. The estate papers include bills, other legal documents and papers concerning the estate of the Catherine Yeates Institution, possibly a girls' school. Edward Shippen Burd's estate papers include his wife's will. Many unidentified bound volumes and deeds conclude the collection.
