James Rogers papers, 1800-1900.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/16397421

Journals, pages of account books, notes, tax receipts, bills and correspondence comprise the majority of this 19th century family collection. The letters discuss personal and business matters as well as politics. Financial records are comprised of bills from various nurseries, clothiers, hardware stores and shoemakers, as well as random pages of account books. The journals are those written by Mary Lindsay Rogers and her son James. Mrs. Rogers' journal (1853-1861) is composed of short entries noting such things as the weather, the doings of her family and friends, business dealings and politics. James Rogers' journal (1852, 1854, 1856, 1859-1860 and 1861) discusses similar subjects. Also included are some records of the Flat Rock Debating Club and a publication entitled "MANUAL OF SUBORDINATE GRANGE OF THE PATRONS OF HUSBANDRY.", published in Philadelphia in 1873.
