Kenneth Spencer Research Library Archival Collections

This account book written in Flemish and French by Henry J. de Coster from 1790-1802 tracks his lumber trade financial dealings as he begins his business. "In coop boek, begonst met het jaar 1790" is written on the first free flyleaf. A number of leaves, which are notes on accounts often written on the versos of letters, etc., were removed from the book and are housed separately.

Receipts, correspondence, miscellaneous records, ledger, and accounts of the Carter Bros. Hardware Co., Garden City, Kansas.

This collection consists of three ledgers used by the Hacienda Sondor of Peru, under the charge of Jose Antonio Cacho. It is unclear if this is the same Hacienda Sondor in present-day Cajamarca, Peru. The ledgers include information about daily activities, livestock, and worker debts.

The collection primarily contains the financial records of the Hixon Lumber Company of Atchison, Kansas over an 85 year period, providing an almost complete record of the lumber company's financial transactions between 1871 and 1939. There is also some correspondence, indexes, and other records in the collection.

This collection includes a volume, Physicians' diary 1924, and 2 account sheets from 1958-1961 of Dr. James A. Butin, who had practices in Fredonia and Chanute, Kansas.
