Organizations
Scope and Contents
The Organization Series contains correspondence, newsletters and other related documents that are associated with the various charitable, social and/or ancestral organizations that hooked Mrs. Caperton and the Burnam Family's interests. The Asia and India Charitable Groups folder is of special interest to the collection because the items highlight the philanthropic interests that Mrs. Caperton maintained outside of her U.S. interests. The National Society of Magna Charta Dames and the National Society, Daughters of the Barons of Runnemede highlight the prestigious Caperton and Burnam ancestries.
