Papers of the Cope family whose members descended from or were forebears of Francis R. Cope Jr. (1878-1962). The bulk of the papers was created by Francis R. Cope Jr., his daughter, Theodora Morris Cope and her first husband, John Frederick Stanwell-Fletcher. Other principal writers in the collection are Alexis T. Cope, Agnes Cope, Anna S. Cope, Caroline Cope, Clementine Cope, Elizabeth S. Cope, and Evelyn Cope, all from the 19th and 20th century. Some portion of the papers relate to Woodbourne Orchards in Dimock, PA, a homestead established by Alexis Cope, but brought into full fruit through the efforts of Francis Cope, Jr. Some materials of the Evans, Foote, Morris and Scull families are represented here as well. Among the papers is a great deal of correspondence and diaries, along with other materials.
