 Item — Volume: 224

Scope and Content

From the Collection: The collection contains records of the Charles Ilfeld Company including correspondence, ledgers, receipts and invoices, inventories, and advertisements. It is divided into three series: correspondence, account books and ledgers, and records of other businesses. The correspondence, 1867-1903, contains letters received and letters sent, both arranged chronologically, and consisting mostly of orders placed with the company. These are followed by copies (Copy Books) of remittance letters and letters specific to sheep raising, wool, and mail contracts. The account books and ledgers, 1865-1916, begin with the first cash book of A. Letcher, whose business was the predecessor to the Charles Ilfeld Company. These records of the company's financial transactions are arranged chronologically by type of record: cash books, journals, and ledgers. The last part of the collection consists of records of other businesses associated with the Ilfeld Company. These include Rancho Pajarito, Waddingham Ranch, Marcus Brunswick, Solomon Floersheim, Ilfeld Brothers (Noa and Louis Ilfeld, partners), and Louis Ilfeld Company.

There is no Box 1 for this collection, nor are there box/item numbers 43-63.
