Cyrus True papers
Manuscripts
Letters and business records addressed to Cyrus True from several land agents, regarding information on investments and potential investments for farmland primarily in Iowa, with a small amount related to Minnesota and California. Correspondents include Edward Simonton, a real estate and financial agent in St. Paul, Minnesota; the Creston Loan and Trust Company of Creston, Iowa; the State Bank of Hull in Hull, Iowa; and True's nephew Andrew M. Ross, writing from California. Ross's letters provide observations on California's popularity, as he mentions the state's rapid population expansion. Letters contain information on land values, interest rates, mortgage details, farm economics, bank procedures, state business laws, estate matters, business taxes, and other subjects. The correspondents also incidentally report on crop patterns, local politics, the particulars of working with women in business matters, and more. There are also a few documents and letters sent to True from other banks and companies involved in farm loans and other business matters.
