Manuscripts
The collection consists of family and personal correspondence, family business papers, manuscripts, ephemera, photographs and books. The collection consists of materials from three generations of the Pease family from 1816 to 1974. The papers are organized chronologically in their respective series boxes. The majority of the papers consists of personal correspondence to members of the family. The correspondence is separated into four main divisions: the correspondence of E. M. Pease, Harriet A. (Sturtevant) Pease, Ned (Edmund Morris) Pease, Jr., and other correspondence. The subject matter of the personal correspondence consists of daily family activities, missionary work on the Marshall Islands, descriptions of raising children, traveling, family health and well-being, and theological/spiritual matters. A large portion of the correspondence consists of letters to and from Harriet A. (Sturtevant) Pease. The subject matter includes family matters, family estate concerns, and missionary work. Notable correspondence includes travel and missionary work letters to friends (letters dated 1877-1894) and consolatory letters after the death of her husband (letters dated 1906). A great deal of the personal correspondence is also authored by Ned (Edmund Morris) Pease, Jr. His correspondence is primarily addressed to his mother, Harriet A. (Sturtevant) Pease, and recounts his daily activities as a medical student, church and spiritual matters, business matters concerning the family estate, and his personal thoughts and desires. Notable correspondence includes his feelings for Clara Bradbury and their marriage (Mar. 3, 1907; Nov. 2, 1910), thoughts about his relationship with his mother (Jan. 22, 1911), arrival of daughter Phyllis (July 13, 1912), and the mention of the infantile paralysis epidemic in Boston, Massachusetts (Aug. 10, 1916).
