Business - Assessments, 1884, ca. 1965
Scope and Contents
The materials in this collection are primarily comprised of collected research and materials related to Greenwich history broadly and the specific history of a handful of important families and properties. These inclue the Meads, Palmers, and Reynolds, along with some of their associated properties. This research includes general history, but also genealogical information collected about everyone possible in the "Families and Individuals" sub-series. She also focuses on a few local preservation and natural conservation societies. There is also a box of photographs, and a box full of recorded audio materials, although many are not currently listenable as the reel-to-reels are suffering from acetate degradation called vinegar syndrome. The casette tapes have not been digitized.
