SCOPE AND CONTENT

Letters, diaries, and travel journals, etc. of four generations of the large Cabot family of Boston, centering on James Elliot Cabot, Harvard 1840 and student under Schelling in Berlin, and his wife Elisabeth Dwight, 1830-1902, extending back to Thomas Handasyd Perkins letters and records on the slave, tea and spice trades, 1786-1840, and forward to the child care diaries of 1905-1908 and 1930 of Mrs. Hugh Cabot, and Mrs. Hugh Cabot, Jr.

The Cabot Family of Boston is most interestingly presented in the collection of family papers, dating from 1786 to 1945. Highlights of the collection are:

1. Extracts from the Letterbooks of Perkins, Burling & Co, and other partnerships of Thomas Handasyd Perkins and J.H. Perkins, 1786-1840, re trade in slaves, tea, spices, etc., with later additions re the family by James Elliot Cabot.

2. Reminiscences of Mrs. Eliza Cabot, the former Lizzie Perkins who married Samuel Cabot. Mrs. Cabot lived from 1791-1885. Delightful reminiscences of Boston after the Revolution and well into the 19th century.

3. The largest body of papers are those of James Elliot Cabot and his wife, Elisabeth Dwight, from 1840 - 1902, including letters from J.E.C to Mrs. J.E.C.; letters to and from their parents and children; Letters from E.D.C to her sister, Ellen Twisleton (Mrs. Edward Twisleton) 1852-1863, full of Boston life and comments on the Civil War; many travel journals, J.E.C. to the mid-west in 1840, to Europe in 1840-1843, also travel journals and letters of J.E.C. and E.D.C. in the later 1800's; correspondence with Ralph Waldo Emerson and his family, 1875 on; also letters from Thoreau, Theodore Parker, C.E.Norton and others.

4. Later family papers, including diaries kept by Mary Anderson Boit (Mrs. Hugh Cabot) during her children's infancy, 1905-1908, and similar diary kept by Mrs. Hugh Cabot, Jr. in 1930-1931.

5. 1940-1945 papers kept by the Hugh Cabots who"adopted" for the duration two English children, John Stephens & Clare Stephens. There are many moving letters sent by their parents and relatives to the children and to Mrs. Cabot.

6. Early Mercer and Boit papers consisting of the diaries of Mary Anderson Boit, 1890-1891, and Georgia Mercer of Savannah, Ga.,1871; and Hugh Mercer's will dated 1776. Included are the published and unpublished poems of Georgia Mercer Boit (Mrs. Walter Gierasch), 1930-1936.
