The collection includes illustrations of Benjamin, his son William Smith Tallmadge, and other family members for this book. The Tallmadge papers include a photostat of an alphabet-number code; engravings of Lafayette; newspaper clippings, passport, and letters from, to, or about Benjamin H. Tallmadge; and an 1875 Tallmadge family genealogy. Also includes collateral family records for Richard Stockton Howell's Civil War service and medical disability, Benjamin Tallmadge's descendants (William Smith Tallmadge, Henry Floyd Tallmadge, Maria Tallmadge Cushman, and Benjamin H. Tallmadge). The Norwood papers include passports for A.G. Norwood and his wife Mary Floyd Tallmadge Norwood, and a French wedding invitation. The Wilkins papers include letters from Douglas Southall Freeman, family members, and others, newspaper clippings of the Webb House, Litchfield, Conn., 1959, concerning John André, postcards of Litchfield, and poems.
