Manuscripts
The collection consists of letters, photographs and clippings related to the life and political career of William Gibbs McAdoo. Much of the McAdoo correspondence deals with his public appearances and engagements as a United States Senator and also his failed attempt at re-election in 1938. Also of interest is McAdoo's involvement with the first Pan-American flight in 1936 and Franklin Delano Roosevelt's campaign trip to California in July 1938. There are also materials related to McAdoo's involvement with the Liberty Bond Act during World War I and the construction and management of the Hudson River Tunnels. The earlier materials are letters to and from William Gibbs McAdoo's grandfather, Charles R. Floyd, chiefly dating from 1823 to 1845. Many of the letters are from his wife, Sophie Floyd, but of note are a few letters from Thomas Butler King. Persons represented in the collection include: John Anson Ford, J. Edgar Hoover, Cordell Hull, Eleanor Wilson McAdoo, Doris Cross McAdoo, Franklin D. Roosevelt, and Woodrow Wilson.
