The bulk of the invoices are addressed to Elias A. Brown who resided in Minaville, N.Y. The invoices list many food and household provisions. In addition there are receipts from newspapers, such as the Mohawk Valley Democrat and the Sentinel. Many of the letters were written by Mr. Brown and his children Cady, William, Charlotte, and Louise.
