Series I consists of eleven manuscript volumes containing title examinations for properties in Middlesex, Norfolk, and Suffolk Counties, Massachusetts [ca. 1880]-1901 (but relating to property transactions going much farther back in time than the date span of compilation reflects). Volumes include many properties in Concord as well as properties in Acton, Bedford, Boston, Cambridge, Carlisle, Chelmsford, Chelsea, Dedham, Lexington, Lincoln, Littleton, Lowell, Marlborough, Maynard, Medford, Melrose, Sharon, Somerville, Stow, Sudbury, Waltham, Watertown, and elsewhere. Series II contains one bound volume and one folder of loose sheets of notes on properties, land, and roads in Concord [ca. 1875]-1897, and three folders of loose notes on roads. Loose notes are also available as a typewritten transcript (1978). Series III contains letters from Horace R. Hosmer to Charles H. Walcott [1889-1892]. Letters discuss Concord and other local history and genealogy, including the story of the "Acton Pirate" related to Walcott by Hosmer.
