Identifier: 1

Scope and Contents

Letters to Benjamin Major, Catherine I. Major, John B. Major, Margaret P. Major Mary B. Major and Mary E. Major. The letter addressed to Catherine Major (nee Innes) relates to a mortgage that SIMM-I had annulled and further discusses his role in his brother's (Dr. Patrick Major) business. A short note from SIMM-I to Benjamin requests payment of a medical bill owed to Dr. Major. There is a very poignant letter from M. H. Major to her newly born granddaughter, Mary E. Major, written in 1868 saying that Mary "should keep this as her very first letter." Mary died at age 4. (63 documents)
