Jedediah D. Stevens papers, 1827-1876.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/122614971

Mainly Stevens' diaries while on a tour in 1829-1830 with Alvan Coe to determine for the Presbyterian Board of Missions the feasibility of establishing missions near Fort Snelling (Minn.) or in the valley of the St. Croix River. Visits at the posts of William Dingley, Lyman Warren, and other fur traders are recorded. Other diaries and reminiscences treat more or less fully Stevens' earlier residence in the missions at Mackinac and Green Bay and other periods of his life. Also included is a small packet of undated manuscript sermons.
