Manuscripts
The Diaries series contains 22 diary transcripts of daily diary entries by Charlotte Close Knapp Dole, George H. Dole and Clara Rowell Dole (covering 1850-1884). Charlotte Dole's diary talks about her husband's work as a missionary, other missionaries, church meetings, the Punahou School, and Hawaiian royalty. George H. Dole's diaries include a trip to the United States in 18640-1865, as well as details about his work on several sugar and rice plantations including crop numbers, Chinese workers, effects of weather, etc., and events taking place in Hawaii. The Family Correspondence series contains 128 pieces of correspondence, the majority of which are written by Clara Rowell Dole to her husband, George, her sons, Walter and Herbert, and brother-in-law, Sanford B. Dole. Most of these letters were written from her home in Kapaa, Kauai, while her husband was away and her children were attending Oahu College (Punahou School). She talks about her daily activities, the school, her children, an outbreak of measles, the Chinese, Japanese and Portuguese workers, and some about Hawaiian royalty and government. There are five letters written by Sanford B. Dole, three to his brother George and two to his nephew Walter, and he is the addressee of nine letters. The rest of the correspondence includes letters by Clara and George's children and family and friends. The majority of these letters written by their eldest son, Walter, are from his time at Cornell University. Details about ship arrivals and departures are included in both the diaries and correspondence series.

Fred Tom photograph albums
Visual Materials
Two photograph albums compiled by Fred Tom, a Chinese cadet aviator who trained in the United States from 1942 to 1943. The first album documents these training years and includes snapshots of Fred Tom, family members, and his Chinese and American colleagues at Luke Field in Phoenix, Arizona, and Randolph Field in Texas. The album also includes Tom's invitation to the 1943 graduation of the Air Corps Advanced Flying School - Chinese Detachment at Randolph Field, along with an 8 x 10-inch photograph of the airfield inscribed by about 20 people. The second album dates to about twenty years later, the late-1950s to 1963. This album documents Fred Tom's family life in the United States (he likely immigrated to the United States after World War II). Photographs include Tom's wife and children, extended family, holiday gatherings, and visits to sites across the United States, including Chinatowns (with at least one photograph of Los Angeles Chinatown). Both albums contain some handwritten notations in Chinese, and include some postcards, clippings, and other ephemera.
