Abstract

The Lydecker Family Papers will be useful to future scholars primarily because the two generations involved were disciplined correspondents; and a nearly complete record is present of matters personal, professional, and military from the 1870's to the 1960's. The papers of Charles Edward Lydecker, the most valuable group, should be viewed in at least three separate areas of interest.
