The Southwick family collection consists of a group of photographs and daguerrotypes of family members and residences; marriage, birth, and baptismal documentation; materials relating to Horace C. Southwick's architectural career and travels; a small amount of documentation of the family's art collection; and ephemeral publications relating to Henry Ward Beecher. A group of books, also part of the gift, have been cataloged individually. Of particular interest are the Horace C. Southwick materials, an illustrated travel diary (1885); sketchbook (1896-97, France); sketches, photographs, and postcards of St. Martin's-in-the-Fields, Biddeford Pool, Maine, a church designed by H.C. Southwick; and copies of published and unpublished poems by Southwick.
