Samuel Steward ledger, 1809-1823.

The ledger details Steward's business transactions, such as the repairing of wagon parts, the forging of tools, and the shoeing of horses. The ledger is indexed and appears to be one book in a multi-volume set as there are references to other numbered folios. The names George Steward and Ann Robbins are written, along with Samuel Steward's own name, on the first page of the ledger. Ann Robbins (fl. 1767-1815) was the wife of Joseph Steward (1746-1813), who was a brother of Abner Steward (fl. 1749-1789).
