http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/528688651

The bulk of the materials in the Records of the Moseley Gardens Collection consists of a series of 45 photographs of the Moseley Gardens dating from the first decade of the twentieth century. There is a five-year diary from 1906-1910, which appears to have been kept by Helen Moseley. In it were found the contents of folders six and eight. There are eight topographic maps of the estate produced by the Massachusetts DEM, a Maudslay State Park brochure, and a letter giving some of the history of the Moseley estate.
