Royal Flemish “Mount Washington” pattern glass vase, c. 1895 (presented to Elise Hutcheson Chapin by William Marsh Rice) [in vault]
Scope and Contents
The Hutcheson and Allied Families Papers, 1840s-1997, consist of letters, photographs, printed matter, genealogy records, and personal family materials. The most substantial amount of materials is the correspondence between family members dating to the 1840s and continuing into the 1990s. The genealogy of the Hutcheson family is very detailed and there is much family history on collateral lines. Photographs are mainly of family members, but Allen C. Hutcheson’s mission in China is well documented through numerous photographs and scrapbooks. The printed matter is extensive with many publications by J. C. Hutcheson, Jr.
