Papers, 1806-1815 (bulk 1806-1810).

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/58757693

Chiefly correspondence and a few other items of the Holland Land Company related to its property in Genesee County, New York (1806-1815, bulk 1806-1810). Most of the letters are to Joseph Ellicott, Batavia, N.Y., agent for the company, mostly from Paul Busti, Philadelphia, general agent for the company. These relate to the sale, administration, and policies of the Genesee lands and the Erie Company's plan to run the Erie Turnpike thorough Holland Company lands. Col. Robert Troup, president of the Erie Company, and Maj. Adam Hoops are mentioned frequently in this latter correspondence.
