    Joseph Oliver Carter family papers and photographs

    Manuscripts

    Financial documents related to the Bernice Pauahi Bishop Musuem, the B.P. Bishop estate, and Puakea Ranch, all of which employed Joseph Oliver Carter during his career in Hawaii. There are also some early accounting materials from the 1840s, including records of invoices for Charles Brewer and R.W. Wood. Family photographs include a portrait of Carter and several album pages containing photographs of Carter and Babbit family members and homes. The photographs are primarily of children, including Elizabeth Babbit Spelman as a baby, and a few depict Joseph Oliver Carter with children and are labeled Great-Grandfather Carter. A few photographs depict Asian women labeled as maids. There is also a 1931 group photograph of the Honolulu Garden Club, and a copy of the Honolulu Star Bulletin extra edition front page from December 7, 1941, describing the aftermath of the attack on Pearl Harbor.
