Contributions, 1954-1985

Serives IV is arranged in two subseries, the first of which are Florence Finney's financial records, including stockholder notices and receipts from investments with Putnam Trust as well as receipts from her contributions to various organizations between 1954-1985. Florence Finney was often required to supply organizations with brief biographies or resumes, used for introductions at speaking engagements. These biographical papers are included in this subseries. Because the entire collection is comprised largely of material from her legislative career, perhaps the most insightful group of papers is her inspirational materials including poems, newspaper articles, and psalms that she clipped from various publications between 1950-1970.

Subseries IV.2 contains ephemera, including photographs taken during her years in office, her State Capitol ID card, and an engraved cpy of the 1965 Connecticut Constitutional Convention. Also included are ration books from World War II, photographs, and a personal account book from Finney's General Store ca. 1887.
