Mary E. Boudreau papers, 1838-1959.

Bulk of this collection reflects the activities of the Hitchcock family, particularly the elder Roswell D. Hitchcock and his immediate descendants. His own papers consist of scattered correspondence, sermons, and programs generated by a career as a Congregational clergyman and educator. There is less material for his children: Bradford D. Hitchcock (1861-1918), Mary B.H. Emerson (b. 1853), and Roswell D. Hitchcock (b. 1845). In addition to some genealogical correspondence, notes and clippings, the children left occasional family papers. Most notable is a series of letters from the younger Roswell while an officer on the U.S.S. Pensacola, 1880-1885. Allied to the Hitchcocks by marriage, the Brayton and Emerson families left similar records. There are sermons by Brown Emerson (1778-1872), genealogical notes by Daniel H. Emerson (1854-1939), and general family papers through Samuel F. Emerson (1854-1939) and his wife, Mary B.H. Emerson (1853- ). Among the miscellaneous items is an autograph bill of sale for a Worcester, MA house and property from Benjamin F. Butler (1818-1893) to Helen M. Plympton in 1887. Includes 8 photographs.
