Papers, 1776-1842.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/58773383

Papers, 1776-1842, containing claims related to his work as U.S. claims commissioner, general correspondence, and accounts. The letters cover a wide range of correspondents and subjects; some deal with his work as commissioner, and there is a large cluster of letters to and from Anthony De Poggi, discussing engravings and etchings of Trumbull's paintings. There is a book of letters and accounts concerning his partnership with Daniel Parker for the purchase and sale of paintings, books, and some furniture, including the identification and purchase price of the paintings, and discussion of their final disposition at auction at Christie's. Correspondents include W. Huntington, Charles Bulfinch, George Baker, Jabez Huntington, and his brother, Jonathan Trumbull. A few miscellaneous papers, such as receipts and a bill of lading, are included. The collection also contains papers of other members of the Trumbull family: there is a folder of letters written by another brother, Joseph Trumbull, 1775-1777, and one of letters to and from a cousin, Benjamin Trumbull, 1775-1799, including correspondence with his wife Martha during the Revolutionary War. One of Benjamin Trumbull's letters describes the retreat from New York after the battle of Long Island.
