Papers 1862-1913.

http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/648267075

This small collection largely consists of correspondence written to or from members of the McClellan family. Within the correspondence series (1862-1913), the Arthur, George, and George B. McClellan folders consist of personal letters; however, the Caroline F. Hare (Mrs. Robert Harford Hare) and some of the Harriet H. McClellan (Mrs. George McClellan) folders contain business letters. Subjects of the correspondence series include family real estate transactions, the family insurance business, medical practice, travels and general personal notes. The conversation notes folder within the conversation series contains a group of small pieces of paper in which two people communicated to one another in writing, perhaps as a game. The folder in the miscellaneous and unidentified series (no dates) contains one photograph, possibly a tin type of two adults, a girl and a dog. This folder also contains an unaddressed, unsigned letter written in French; a poem with an unknown author and a pamphlet.
