This collection includes a group of about 75 letters, mainly from the 1840's, to various Rochester businessmen. Although acquired together, it appears that the items are not all related. Recipients include Isaac R. Elwood, A. & T.F. Mason Dry Goods Merchants (Allen Mason and Thomas F. Mason), and Dwinelle and Campbell Counsellors at Law (John W. Dwinelle and James C. Campbell). John W. Dwinelle, 1816-1881, later became a prominent San Francisco lawyer.
The Dwinelle and Campbell Papers is open for research use. Researchers are advised to contact the Rare Books Special Collections & Preservation Department prior to visiting. Upon arrival, researchers will also be asked to fill out a registration form and provide photo identification.
Purchased from Michael Luck, Rochester, NY, July 25 and 26, 1990.
In consultation with a curator, reproductions may be made upon request. Permission to publish materials from the collection must be requested from a curator. Researchers are responsible for determining any copyright questions.
