Henry Herron Beauchamp Papers
Manuscripts
The collection consists of H.H. Beauchamp's Journals with typewritten transcriptions for the years 1870-1907, in which he wrote extensively about family matters, as well as, his travels, often pasting in photos, newspaper clippings and other printed material about the places he visited; the collection also includes letters written by Beauchamp, mainly to his wife, Elizabeth Lassetter Beauchamp, and other family members. A second major part of the collection is the Elizabeth Mary, Countess Russell, Address book, correspondence, with one letter by George Moore, ephemera and manuscripts, which consist of two typewritten copies and printed proof sheets of her novel, "Mr. Skeffington." The papers consist of the following series: 1. Journals (Box 1) are arranged chronologically and cover the years 1870-1907. Beauchamp wrote extensively about his world travels from 1870 until 1890, often pasting in photos, newspaper clippings and other printed material about the places he visited. After 1890, the journals mainly focus on family life and concerns, especially the health of his large extended family. Elizabeth Russell (as "May") is only mentioned briefly in the earlier journals but becomes more important after 1888, during her courtship with von Arnim. 2. Journal Transcriptions (Boxes 2-3) are arranged chronologically. These transcriptions are photocopies of the typewritten originals; because the journals are somewhat fragile it is best to read the transcriptions for detailed content of the journals. 3. H. H. Beauchamp Correspondence & Ephemera (Boxes 4-5) is arranged alphabetically by author and addressee. The majority of the letters were written by Beauchamp to his wife "Louey" and cover the years 1870 to 1905. These letters can be read alongside the journals as they provide some further travel details but are mainly concerned with family matters. There are a small number of letters to other family members, including one letter to Elizabeth, Countess Russell. This material also includes a copy of Beauchamp's death certificate and the padded folder which originally held the letters. 4. Elizabeth Mary, Countess Russell Address book, Correspondence, Ephemera & Manuscripts (Boxes 6-7) is arranged by format and then alphabetically by author. This material includes Elizabeth's address book, and the letters, cards, and ephemera removed from the address book and cataloged separately. There is also one letter from George Moore to Elizabeth, originally with the Beauchamp letters. The manuscripts are two carbon copy, typewritten copies, and the printed proof sheets of Mr. Skeffington; the printed proof sheets have been removed to a long, flat folder for storage.
