Dauphin County PA Sheriff/Coroner Journal/Ledger 1805-1807; Murder,Fornication++
DESCRIPTION Of significant historical importance to Dauphin County Pennsylvania and to life in early America. I am honored to offer this magnificently handwritten and detailed accounts of arrests, convictions, public office holders, etc. beginning 1805, ending 1807. Not clear on who kept this ledger, either the sheriff or coroner of Dauphin. The Coroner of 1805 was Obed Fahenstock, Esq. later Jacob Wain, Esq. The journal is full with every page being used. Without counting. I'm guessing there are 150- 200 pages, about 12.5" by 8" by 1" thick. Some charges are: Theft. Larceny, Assault& Battery, Tippling House(selling liquor without a license) Fraud, Murder, Fornication(a Lot of people met that charge! Bastardly, Adultery, etc. Some defendants were noted as being Negro and Ignoramus(a Lot of them too! Most interesting(to ... moreme) was a finding of guilt for murder with a sentence of"execution by hanging. To be hung by the neck until death. May God have mercy on his soul" Names of all Justice's Of The Peace and Township Constables are written several times in the journal. Names are also given for all those being charged and jury members that convicted or acquitted the defendants. Names are also given for each carriage ride or march to the Jail of Dauphin County. All calligraphy is in ink on thicker paper stock. No obvious signs of foxing. No torn pages. Some pages are loose, cover is also loose but it all appears to be complete and WOW! What and interesting find that would be a terrific resource for charting Dauphin County history and for any geneology project. This is a once in a lifetime offering. Good Luck!

1871 Handwritten Ledger Journal Fredericksburg Grapetown TX Schaper Usener Store
I almost gave up on my research with this one but finally hit a gold mine of information concerning the families listed on the pages. The person I purchased this from said it came out of an Arizona estate so he figured it was a mercantile ledger from an Arizona town. So that actually took me on all kinds of wild goose chases. It’s not Arizona; it’s Texas. Before I get to how I discovered this information. I want to give you a brief description of the ledger itself. This 1870’s ledger contains about 290 handwritten“general store” type expense entries. Four pages have been torn out but otherwise all pages are accounted for. There are hundreds of names written on the pages and also the items they purchased. For example; Revolving pistols. Boots, blankets, material, jeans, candy, bottle of bitter, tobacco, box mustard powder, buggy whip, whiskey, ... morejugs, brandy, spices, axe handles, coffee, belts, combs, underskirt, gloves, stockings, earrings, nails, pocket book, and on and on and on. There were only two places that I saw listed in this ledger; Grape Creek and Palo Alto. On the first page at the top it says Schaper& Usener. At first I thought it was“Ussner” but through hours of research I finally realized its spelled Usener. I kept putting all the different names into the search engines and not until I put in one of the names listed as“Doebbler& Cowan” which is how those two names are listed(together) sometimes in this ledger) did I find out this ledger was from a Texas town. Friedrich William Doebbler was born in 1824 in Prussia. He appeared on the census in 1880 in Gillespie County. Texas. He came to Texas in 1851 with his family. He settled in Grapetown on Grape Creek. Grapetown is a ghost town located along the Old San Antonio Road on South Grape Creek about 9 ½ miles south of Fredericksburg. The loosely-knit community around Grapetown took its first step becoming a town in 1860 when Fredrich Wilhelm Doebbler opened Grapetown’s first business establishment. A dry goods and general store called Doebbl

Up for auction today is a handwritten journal originally belonging to the Green family of Pennsylvania. On the front of the journal it says“Charles Green’s Book July 1847_ford PA. I can’t quite make out the town name so I’ve scanned a close up of it. I do know that other places mentioned inside this journal are Chester Co. Bucks Co. Germantown. Schuylkill and Norristown. The other names associated with the book’s owner is“Ephraim Green” and“George A. Green. There are a total of about 65 handwritten pages and a variety of things and dates are represented. I would say the earliest entry is from 1847 and the latest is from 1882. The earliest pages are work related. There are 17 pages and the beginning is titled. Account with Father. Charles Green. These are hours worked. Pay given and the reason for the work. This is somewhat of a diary of sorts ... morebecause he not only talks about who he did work for but also if he had to take time off; the reason for that time off. I’ve scanned a few examples for you to see what I mean. For instance, on October 14 th. 1854 he takes time off for“Mother Brittin’s funeral” There is time taken off for more funerals. Raising hay houses and barns, church functions, helping people move, anniversaries, time spent in the hospital which he says is on“Sixth and Master St. and much more. Lots of names mentioned too. Then part of the journal has to do with coal bought in the 1860’s. And another part shoe repair; at least I think its shoe repair because most of the entries say, Bottoming” and the account is also with a man by the name of“Sylvester Megargal.

1828 Handwritten Journal Ledger Doctor John Phillips Benjamin Swain Bristol PA
Up for auction today is an 1828 handwritten journal or ledger that belonged to Dr. John Phillips. On the front and on the first page it says. Doctr John Phillips in a/c with Benjm Swain. There are no places mentioned in this journal but I believe it might be from Bristol Borough in Pennsylvania. The reason I think this is because when I put both names in the web search engines I came up with this… Bristol Borough: Dr. Edward Swain was the son of Benjamin Swain. Whose ancestors were among the early settlers of the county. He studied medicine with Dr. Phillips, graduated in 1833, commenced practice shortly after, became popular, and was generally successful in the treatment of his patients. But he, like a great many young men of promise, was suddenly cut off in the midst of life. On the fourth day of July, 1939, he accepted an invitation to ... moretake an excursion to Philadelphia on the steamboat Burlington. Shortly after the boat left Burlington she was run into by the steamer Pilot Boy. The doctor being in a side room at the time. Was crushed to death and fell into the river. It was many days before his body was recovered. Thus died a young man of bright prospects, leaving a widow and three children to mourn the loss of a kind husband and affectionate father. Now of course that says Dr. Edward Swain studied medicine under Dr. Phillips. However his father was Benjamin Phillips. I also found an obituary for a Dr. John Phillips and it reads as such. Died at Bristol. Pa. January 1, 1861, after an illness of three weeks, Dr. John Phillips, in his 71 st year. Dr. Phillips graduated at Nassau hall. Princeton, N. J. in the autumn of 1818, and soon after entered the University of Pennsylvania as a student of medicine, where he graduated, with all he honors of the institution, in March 1812. Shortly after, he opened an office at Bristol. Where he has been a remarkably successful practitioner for nearly half a century. He was ardently devoted to his profession, and for many years had the largest circuit of any ph

c.1875 Handwritten Journal? Ledger? Poetry, Newspaper clippings~Beautiful
Up for auction are two handwritten books 1- Journal/Ledger? Dated 1875 with beautiful script throughout book. I am not sure what the purpose was. It seems like it was partly a ledger. Then a journal, then about 60% of the pages have newspaper clippings of poetry pasted on top of the script. This book is filled from front to end- about 100 pages. The binding is in poor condition. Paper shows browning, edges show wear- but overall OK condition, certainly readable. 2- Kids Journal c 1894. Almost blank. That is why I'm including it. A few newspaper journals. This book is in much better condition. This is a great price for someone that likes script or antiques. Email with any questions. Priced to MOVE!

Antique Ledger Journal 1890 St. Paul Minnesota Spencerian Script Calligraphy Mn
This auction is for a nice antique leather ledger or journal. It is 16 by 11 1/2 inches and under 2 inches thick. It appears it was used by a St. Paul businessman in the 1890's. There are pages dedicated to different accounts. Lots of names and all written in that old beautifiul Spencerian script with an ink pen. Pages are all intact and in very good condition. There is wear to the old leather cover and the leather binding cover is loose. Though the binding itself appears tight. These old ledgers look great when displayed open(or closed) with an old ink well, pen and maybe a pair of old spectacles! Email with any questions. The Fine Print: My aim is buyer satisfaction! I try to ship most things by priority mail, but if it is a heavy item I sometimes ship it parcel post because of the higher cost of priority shipping.
