Three volumes contain George A. Hopley & Company records of sales and shipments of cotton, rice, and rosin shipped from Charleston (S.C.) to New York (N.Y), Wilmington (N.C.), Liverpool (England), and LeHavre (France). These shipping accounts are attributed to Louis Manigault and the Manigault family. Volume 1, "Shipments. 1865-1867"; volume 2 [1867-1868], "Shipments. G.A.H. & Co."; and volume 3 [1867-1869], "Shipments. G.A.H. & Co. No. 2." Many accounts provide detailed lists of expenses including those for insurance, freight, dock and town dues and entry fees, cartage, rent, bank commissions, brokerage fees, and other charges. The weights and prices of goods are frequently included. Indexes list the names of vessels, and the individuals and companies involved in transactions.
