Abstract

The Crosby family papers consist mainly of letters written by members of the extended Crosby family. They describe the life, social conditions, farming, weather, religion and family matters in towns in New York, Connecticut, Indiana, Ohio and Michigan, including Grand Rapids. Some of the letters describe pioneer conditions, especially the illnesses and difficulties encountered by those settling in frontier communities in Michigan and Ohio.
