William Rollin Morgan papers
Manuscripts
The collection contains 198 items, including ephemera. It is mainly correspondence; however, it does contain some receipts and bills. The correspondence deals with Morgan's gold mining business, the Sierra Union Water and Mining Company, and family matters back in Bennington, Vermont. The mining materials describe day-to-day mining operations, hydraulic mining, conflicts and lawsuits between the Sierra Union and various residents in St. Louis and Marysville, California. Items pertaining to mining appear throughout the collection but are concentrated in the letters of George W. Cox, and Timothy Donohue. A few letters discuss California politics.
