Robinson family papers, 1865-1960.

The McLauchlin Family papers are personal in nature and display the desire of a large family dispersed across Scotland, Canada, and the western United States, to remain in contact with each other primarily writing about family news and local conditions. Also included are records, primarily of patients, of the Home Medical & Surgical Infirmary. Some of these records date to the Korean War. The Robinson Family papers are primarily concerned with the operation of the Emerald Mining Company in Laramie County (now Platte County), Wyoming and personal letters related to Elizabeth Robinson. Some letters are between Robinson and her relative Susan Van Zandt of Cheyenne. Also included are photographs, postcards, scrapbooks and ledgers from both families.
