These are business records of a private company, the East Boston Timber Company, which owned Grand Island as well as a number of lake boats. The records include bills; receipts; expense accounts; orders and promises to pay; correspondence; and payments to workers, listing the dates and number of hours they worked. Papers of company agents, J.H. Lathrop and Julius Gerber, are strongly represented in the series. There are also records of the Steamboats Red Jacket and Victory, and other shipping records. These records were seized by the state after the company went bankrupt in 1840.
