Rockefeller Jr. archive & Acadia National Park [#815186] To : eppster2@comcast.net Dear Ron - I hope you are well. My vacation was actually my honeymoon - the wedding was just a little over a month ago (on June 22nd). We traveled to El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, and Belize - studying Mayan ruins. Concerning your hypothesis that JDR Jr. might have applied at Williamsburg lessons learned at Acadia, I've reread the overview to Worthwhile Places, to see if that sparks any ideas. I've always linked the lessons learned from the French Restorations after WWI with the Williamsburg restoration. There is the issue of escalating prices for purchases, and using other names/terms (whether it is "David's Father" or purchases through the Snake River Land Company) as a way to purchase property. I started thinking about Ken Chorley and his ties to Colonial Williamsburg and Grand Teton National Park. Chorley's involvement with Colonial Williamsburg begins in 1930. I've also discussed this topic with Tom Rosenbaum, and is also stumped. Maybe I ammissing something - I just don't know. Sorry I am not being that helpful. Best wishes, Michele Michele Hiltzik Beckerman Assistant Director, Head of Reference Rockefeller Archive Center 15 Dayton Avenue Sleepy Hollow NY 10591 mhiltzik@rockarch.org direct phoneline: (914)366-6342 We hope this response has sufficiently answered your questions.

Rockefeller Jr. and Senator Pepper, Dr. Robert Abbe, Steve Mather, Rev. William Lawrence, William Draper Lewis, and Frederick Law Olmsted. I have enclosed photocopies of the correspondence cards. Concerning your questions about the card file, specifically why documents do not appear in the card file, but the correspondence gives the impression of previous correspondence, I do have a possible answer. The earliest correspondence in the card file dates from around 1916- 1920, however we have discovered that the correspondence was not indexed in the same manner as the later years. I tend to think of it as the office was just getting up to speed dealing with all the correspondence that was incoming, and pieces of correspondence could have been missed. This is where the finding aids can sometimes be a benefit, looking in the Rockefeller Family Archives, Record Group 2, Office of Messrs Rockefeller, Friends and Services Series, Homes Series, and Cultural Interests Series for appropriate folder titles, or reviewing the descriptions of the folders.

Little and JDR Jr. Dear Michele, The RAC letter I referred to below from R.B. Jackson to JDR Jr. dated November 5, 1926 SO impressed me that I contacted the librarian at the Jackson Laboratories asking him if he was aware of it. In my zeal I offered to copy it and provide it for his archives since its content forced a rethinking of their institutional beginnings. I now see that the paper on which the letter is copied is impregnated with an all too well-known copyright restriction prohiting inter-institutional sharing by a third party. It won't be sent.

A rough draft of the Dorr biography news completion--finally! I've still got the final eighteen years of his life to write and that should be done by Spring. I've got a publisher nibble. There is much editing and polishing to be done after that. It might interest you to know that after working for six years with the unprocessed Dorr manuscripts at the Park archives, they have received funding for the NPS to organize the thousands of pages relevant to Mr. Dorr's career. All the Park archive attributions in the Dorr book will thus be rendered moot ! IU'm delighted this task is being undertaken, yet frustrated at the timing--and the difficulties that it poses for other researchers who want to use my biography as a foundation. Elizabeth still works a 32-hour week at Lowell General Hospital , stimulated by the professional challenges. My PSA numbers are still as low as I would like but a severe strain of my left tarpezius muscle left me on my back for two weeks just before Christmas--we celebrated this year without our traditional live tree and hundreds of ornaments.

Rockefeller, Jr. Personal Papers, 1874-1961 1901 This series includes material related to the personal life of John D. Rockefeller, Jr. (1874-1960). Following his graduation from Brown University, JDR Jr. joined his father's office on October 1, 1897. He was associated with his father's business enterprises for several years before devoting his efforts to philanthropy. He helped his father establish several major philanthropic organizations, and served as a trustee of the General Education Board (1902-1939; chairman of the board, 1936-1939), The Rockefeller Institute for Medical Research (1901-1954), and the Rockefeller Foundation (1913-1940; chairman of the board, 1917-1940). He oversaw the expansion and diversification of the philanthropic work begun by his father, and established in his own right the Bureau of Social Hygiene (1911), the International Education Board (1923), and the Davison Fund (1930), and contributed to many important conservation and historic preservation efforts. During his lifetime JDR Jr. gave more than $537 million to educational, religious, cultural, medical, and other charitable projects.

Rockefeller, Jr. Personal Papers, 1874-1961 http://www.rockefeller.edu/archive.ctr/jdrjr_scope.htn The Rockefeller University John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Personal Papers, 1874-1961 1001 SCOPE AND CONTENT NOTE The personal papers of John D. Rockefeller, Jr., located in Record Group 2 (Office of the Messrs. Rockefeller) of the Rockefeller Family Archives, document Rockefeller's life and philanthropy. While the bulk of documentation in Record Group 2 concerns the establishment and operation of his philanthropies and businesses, these papers illuminate Rockefeller's education, family relationships, travels, and his religious and public life. They also contain the voluminous research files prepared by Rockefeller's biographer and longtime adviser, Raymond B. Fosdick, which bring together otherwise widely-dispersed sources. The papers have a double provenance: JDR, Jr., (who transferred material to both Fosdick and the family archivist), and the Family Office General Files. Initially arranged by the family archivist, the collection was rearranged in 1996 to allow greater intellectual access. Original folder titles have largely been retained, except where doing SO would hinder access. Although originally conceived of as a separate series within Record Group 2, these records are treated as a subgroup (Subgroup Z) with constituent series. JDR, Jr., Personal is arranged in nine series: I. Correspondence II. Personal Papers III. Benevolence Records IV. Death of JDR, Jr. V. Biographical Works VI. Rare Books VII. Restricted Files VIII. Speeches IX. Scrapbooks Within series, records are typically arranged chronologically or alphabetically by subject or type of material. Volume two of the finding aid, Appendices, contains descriptive material prepared by the family archivist, Dr. Joseph Ernst. Included are folder-level and item-level descriptions, calendars to JDR, Jr.'s correspondence with his father, mother, and Abby Rockefeller, name indices to the Special Letter File in Series I, and chronological and subject listings to Series VIII, Speeches and Series IX, Scrapbooks. Series I, Correspondence, is arranged into four subseries: Personal Correspondence Office Correspondence Letterbooks (compiled by Raymond B. Fosdick) 1 of 4 7/25/00 5:35 PM John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Personal Papers, 1874-1961 http://www.rockefeller.edu/archive.ctr/jdrjr_scope.html Special Letter File Subseries I, Personal Correspondence, contains incoming and outgoing correspondence, arranged alphabetically by correspondent. Significant correspondents include JDR, Sr. (1901-1936), Laura Spelman Rockefeller (1891-1915), and Abby Aldrich Rockefeller (1901-1946). The correspondence between Abby and JDR, Jr. consists of carbon transcriptions of select letters; some letters were edited prior to being transcribed. It is believed that JDR, Jr. selected the letters for transcription and destroyed others. The letters reveal an intense devotion and interdependence between husband and wife. The correspondence between JDR, Jr. and his father spans the years 1901 to 1936 and provides an unbroken record of their daily communications. Senior's letters also appear in Subseries 2, Office Correspondence (1922-1961), Subseries 3, Letterbooks (1884-1952), and in Record Group 1 of the family archives, the papers of John D. Rockefeller, Sr. The letterbooks in Subseries 3 were compiled by Fosdick during the research phase of his work on John D. Rockefeller, Jr.: A Portrait (1956). They contain selections from JDR, Jr.'s correspondence. The letterbooks are arranged by subjects which correspond to the final chapter headings. Material related to the compilation of these letterbooks is located in Series V, Biographical Works, together with information about the so-called "Nevins books," assembled by Senior's biographer, Allan Nevins. Series I, Subseries 4, Special Letter File, is arranged alphabetically by correspondent. Correspondents include: Nelson W. Aldrich (1904-1910) Andrew Carnegie (1903-1914) Alexis Carrel (1914-1931) Winston Churchill (1909-1946) Henry C. Frick (1908-1919) Charles Evans Hughes (1916-1920) Charles A. Lindbergh (1928-1931) Ignace Jan Paderewski (1916) John Singer Sargent (1917) Woodrow Wilson (1903-1904) Wendell L. Wilkie (1940) This file was created and maintained by JDR, Jr.'s office staff. Series II, Personal Papers, is arranged alphabetically by subject or type of material. It includes a variety of memorabilia, among them JDR, Jr.'s piece of groom cake (1901), his Tiffany leather briefcase, playing cards and calling cards, an ink wiper, and two silver hinged photograph albums containing family portraits. There are also color photographs of Rockefeller's porcelain and pottery collections, arranged by disposition to dealers (Duveen, Parish-Watson, C.T. Roo) or museums (the Brooklyn Museum, Colonial Williamsburg, the Metropolitan Museum, Rhode Island School of Design). One folder contains photographs of the English, Italian, and Netherlands furniture ordered in 1924 from Charles of London for Rockefeller's new offices at 26 Broadway. The meticulous record-keeping and accounting practices characteristic of Senior were passed on to his son. Series II contains early accounts (1884-1886) kept by Senior for his children and for his wife, Laura, as well as 22 volumes of JDR, Jr.'s daily expense notebooks (1889-1900). Reference and reference clippings files are organized according to such topics as "Helpful poems and verses sent me 2 of 4 7/25/00 5:35 PM John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Personal Papers, 1874-1961 http://www.rockefeller.edu/archive.ctr/jdrjr_scope.htm at the time of Abby's going," or "Miscellaneous helpful thoughts." Also present in Series II are JDR. Jr.'s surviving school papers, including essays, examinations, report cards, and lecture notes, arranged chronologically by school and thereunder alphabetically by type of material. Files document work done at the New York School of Languages, Douglas School, Cutler School, the Browning School, and Brown University. The travel records housed in Series II fill boxes 39 through 45. They are organized in two sections, Foreign travel records and United States travel records. Thereunder, records are arranged chronologically by trip. These files reveal JDR, Jr.'s great curiosity about the world, his eagerness to share experience, and his desire to retain the best possible scholars and guides in the service of edification and enjoyment. In addition to keeping a diary, he saved railroad timetables, shipboard maps and menus, passenger lists, itineraries, and printed souvenirs. These items are often marked: "Hold for next trip." Files also record the thorough and dedicated activity of the family staff as they sought to reserve passage (usually for the family and several traveling companions) by train, ship, or car; book hotel accommodations; contact local travel agents; pay accumulated bills; research potential purchases; or wire messages home. Especially well recorded is the 1929 trip to Egypt, led by James Breasted of the Oriental Institute in Chicago. Correspondence describes the trip preparations, which involved ordering the proper hats and suits, based on Breasted's recommendations. To give themselves a rest and to introduce their children to the history and beauties of their homeland, the Rockefeller family made railroad and car trips to the western United States in 1920, 1924, 1926, and 1930. These trips are thoroughly documented by correspondence, diaries, itineraries, and souvenirs. Prior to his marriage in 1901, Rockefeller traveled frequently, and diaries exist for trips to Yellowstone Park (1886) and to California and Alaska (1899). Before parenthood intervened, he and Abby traveled to the Berkshires in 1904 and 1906. Series III, Benevolence Records, provides a useful overview of JDR, Jr.'s charitable giving between 1910 and 1959. Located here is the important Armour report of 1937, detailing contributions made between 1917 and 1936. The memoranda on "Charitable, Educational, Religious, Scientific, and Public Contributions 11 were first prepared in 1925 and thereafter annually through 1959. They provide retrospective summaries of giving, beginning in 1910. Series IV, Death of JDR, Jr., includes condolences received by JDR, 3rd, Winthrop Rockefeller, and JDR, Jr.'s secretary, Janet Warfield. The series contains JDR, Jr.'s will and related correspondence concerning the disposition of his property and works of art. Series V, Biographical Works, mainly documents the research and writing of Raymond B. Fosdick's 1956 biography of JDR, Jr., John D. Rockefeller, Jr., A Portrait (New York, Harper & Brothers). In addition to the original typescript manuscript in six volumes, there are 31 volumes of research notebooks. These contain Fosdick's correspondence with JDR, Jr., his staff, and other associates relating to acquiring records documenting JDR, Jr.'s career. The notebooks also comment on the nature of the sources themselves. For example, Fosdick provides valuable descriptions of JDR, Jr.'s correspondence with his father and mother. Included in the notebooks are copies of the correspondence of William Lyon Mackenzie King, housed in the National Archives of Canada in Ottawa; seven volumes are entirely devoted to the topic of Industrial Relations. Other topics include Organized Religion, Negro Race, Parks, Art, Education, Medicine, Housing, and Variety and Extent of Philanthropic Contributions. Volumes 29-31 contain research reports by M. Pendo, a research assistant. Series VI, Rare Books, contains works presented to JDR, Jr. by his mother or by dignitaries. Of 3 of 4 7/25/00 5:35 PM John D. Rockefeller, Jr. Personal Papers, 1874-1961 http://www.rockefeller.edu/archive.ctr/jdrjr_scope.htn special interest is the original bound manuscript of Aspilogia, (n.d.), a work on ancient warfare, heraldry, and other subjects by Sir Henry Spelman (1564-1641), a historian, Member of Parliament, and ancestor of Laura Spelman Rockefeller. Also present is the first printed edition of that work (London, 1654), which contains copper plate engravings and the only known portrait of John Talbot, Earl of Shrewsbury. The speeches of JDR, Jr., given between 1891 and 1958, are housed in Series VIII. They are arranged chronologically and offer a valuable resource for charting JDR, Jr.'s reactions to events and his involvement in numerous activities and causes. Series IX contains 22 volumes of scrapbooks containing newspaper clippings for the years 1895 to 1960. Both speeches and scrapbooks are accompanied by subject indices, found in Volume 2.

It's like there is a big hole at the Archive Center. The Max Farrand Memorial Fund sounds interesting, especially the material on the Reef Point Bulletin. Thank you for keeping me posted on the material at the Chapman office. I hope everything connected to the move is progressing nicely. It sounds like you can use another week or so of R&R. I hope you and Elizabeth are doing well. Take Care, Michele From: eppster2@myfairpoint.net [mailto:eppster2@myfairpoint.net] Sent: Tuesday, May 31, 2011 10:32 AM To: Hiltzik, Michele Subject: Bar Harbor Archive Dear Michele, Hope you had a pleasant weekend. I just learned about the death of Ken Rose and can only imagine how fellow archive staff must be feeling. Elizabeth and I got back from Bar Harbor last Sunday. It was not the expected R & R for the weather was cold and foggy and I had made too many commitments. https://webmail.myfairpoint.net/hwebmail/mail/message.php?index=9707 6/1/2011 Page 2 of 2 Gave a ninety minute presentation to the ANP ranger staff and later a talk on Mr. Dorr at the Jesup Memorial Library. I'm writing to tell you that I did discover what appears to be a historic treasure in the Fenton, Chapman, et. al. legal archive that I referred to in my earlier message. Adjacent to the twelve JDR Jr. file boxes is a map room that also contains legal tomes, unique Hancock County Trustees of Public Reservations papers, and several paper wrapped multivolume sets. I opened one and was surprised to find a two volume set titled The Max Farrand Memorial Fund. It appears to be a full account over many years of the establishment of this organization following Max's death tracing its mission, organizational framework, membership, projects--with special attention to the publication of The Reef Point Bulletin. It is an exquisitely designed record which may very well be Ms. Farrand's since I've been unable to locate any reference to it in the online listing of her holdings at UC (Berkeley) or in the Farrand literature. Given your background I thought this would interest you. I'm keeping this discovery close to my chest as I wait to see how events unfold between attorney Doug Chapman, Peter Johnson, my fellow researcher Bill Horner, and the Rockefeller family. From Elizabeth and Ron, all our best, Ronald H.
