Scope and content
This subseries consists of daily business journals belonging to the Macdonald family for the period 1877 to 1923 and 1927 to 1928. The journals were likely from the Georgetown store and many appear to have been kept by Joseph R. Macdonald. Entries summarize daily business activities and include notes on weather, activities of ships, business dealings, and occasionally mention family members’ activities. Most books include an accounts section at the back. Some of the books also have loose receipts, notes, memos, etc. among the pages. The series has been arranged in chronological order.
