Wyck Association Collection

Mss.Ms.Coll.52

Date: 1663-1972 | Size: 168.0 Linear feet

Abstract

One of the oldest houses in Philadelphia, Wyck is now a non-profit museum listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Nine generations of the Jansen-Wistar-Haines family owned the Wyck property from 1690 until 1973. The last family owner deeded 2.5 acres of land, the house and its contents, several outbuildings, a landscaped garden, and a small endowment to the Wyck Charitable Trust. The Wyck Charitable Trust and the Wyck Association now administer the preservation of the property and its educational services to the public. This collection contains diaries, letters, accounts, bills and receipts, deeds, and photographs. The collection as a whole is deepest for the period 1770-1970. Items of particular note include accounts of household expenses at Wyck from ca. 1790-1970; papers pertaining to the Academy of Natural Sciences of Philadelphia, Quaker schools, and social reform groups; agricultural and horticultural practices; and correspondence to and from cultural leaders of 18th and 19th century Philadelphia. The papers of the John S. Haines family (Ms. Coll. 52A) form part of the Wyck Papers. The papers cover the years 1845 to 1949 and are arranged into eight series.

Background note

African American History Note

With emphases on religion, education, and social concerns, the correspondence in the Wyck collection contains numerous references to African Americans. These issues emerge in the correspondence of Caspar Wistar Haines I, Hannah Marshall Haines, Reuben Haines III, Jane Bowne Haines I, Robert Bowne Haines I, and Caspar Wistar Haines II.See below for more specific subject references within the letters.

The collection also contains a series of writings: diaries, essays, journals, notebooks, and poetry. Of particular interest are the papers describing the exploits of a runaway slave, Henry Hudson, in 1819.

Early American History Note

The Wyck Collection is a massive collection that touches upon a number of early American themes. MOLE contains an extensive inventory of the collection. There are also binders with the collection that contain item level descriptions of the contents. The collection is particularly notable for its family correspondence, business records, and information on the operations of some Philadelphia institutions, such as the Academy of Natural Sciences.

Collection overview

  2.25 Linear feet 6 boxes

Starting in the early nineteenth century, residents of Wyck collected genealogical information about their ancestors, particularly in regard to the Bowne, Haines, and Wistar families. Included in the collection is genealogical research done by Reuben Haines III primarily on the Haines family in the first decades of the nineteenth century. Later in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, Jane Reuben Haines, Caspar Wistar Haines II, Jane Bowne Haines II, and Reuben Cope Haines conducted extensive research on the three previously mentioned families as well as on more distant relations in the Hartshorne, Johnson, Lukens, Marshall, and other families. Further genealogical information may be found in the correspondence of Reuben Haines III, Jane Reuben Haines, Caspar Wistar Haines II, Jane Bowne Haines II, and Reuben Cope Haines.

The material in this section is arranged alphabetically by family surname. The dates in the listings have two meanings. Dates enclosed in parentheses and marked "b." and "d." refer to the life span of the person immediately preceding the dates, for example, "Caspar Wistar (b.1672 d.1726)." All other dates refer to the time periods included in the material, for example, "Eliza Beth Bowne's descendants, 1773-1903."

1676-1971 31 Linear feet 80 boxes

The correspondence, dating from 1676-1971, is the most extensive series in the Wyck Papers. It includes the letters of family members, as well as correspondence to and from notable people as listed in this Register. The correspondence particularly illustrates the internal development of this family, the development of American thought and society, and the relationship between family and society. The emphases on religion, education, and concern for Blacks are topics which exemplify this dynamic. These issues emerge in the correspondence of Caspar Wistar Haines I, Hannah Marshall Haines, Reuben Haines III, Jane Bowne Haines I, Robert Bowne Haines I, and Caspar Wistar Haines II.

The Correspondence is arranged by the principal family member to whom it relates. These grouping of letters start with the correspondence of Reuben Haines I (1727-1793) and end with that of Mary Troth Haines (1892-1983). The separate groupings of letters are divided further into correspondence "from" the individual and "to" the individual. Each of these subdivisions is arranged in chronological order. The complete list of family members represented in the Papers follows the Introduction, on pages 3 and 4.

Family correspondence is, by its nature, interlocked. It is recommended, then, that researchers consider the papers of an individual as a part of a network of papers that includes those of his/her parents, siblings, spouses, and children. Research on the Correspondence of Reuben Haines I, for example, would not be complete without at least a cursory examination of the Correspondence of his wife, Margaret W. Haines, or their children, Caspar Wistar Haines, Reuben Haines II, Josiah Haines, or Catherine (Haines) Hartshorne. The Genealogy charts of the family found at the beginning of the Register will be useful for establishing the relationships between the various generations represented in the Papers.

The Correspondence has been arranged to focus upon those family members who owned and/or resided at Wyck. These individuals are indicated by an asterisk on the list of family members on pages 3 and 4. The Wyck Papers include an unusual number of letters written by these family members. These letters contain richly autobiographical statements about the writer and his/her world. In order to maximize the autobiographical quality of the Correspondence the letters of asterisked family members have been arranged in "From" and "To" categories. For example, the letters associated with Reuben Haines III are divided into "Correspondence from Reuben Haines III" and "Correspondence To Reuben Haines III." The letters are arranged chronologically within each of these two categories.

In the common case of intrafamily mail of Wyck residents the writer, rather than the receiver, was favored. For example, a letter from Reuben Haines III to his wife Jane B. Haines was filed chronologically within the "Correspondence From Reuben Haines III." Conversely, a letter from Jane B. Haines to her husband would be found in the "Correspondence From Jane B. Haines I."

Correspondence of those family members who did not live at Wyck (non-asterisked) was placed, when possible, in the correspondence of asterisked family members. For example, letters from William J. Haines, a non-resident of Wyck, to his brother Caspar W. Haines II, a resident of Wyck, were placed in "Correspondence To Caspar W. Haines II."

Letters among family members who did not live at Wyck (non-asterisked) were placed in the collection of the person who received the letter. For example, a letter from William J. Haines to his sister Mary M. Haines may be found in the "Correspondence To Mary M. Haines." Letters from family members to non-family members were placed in the "From" collection of that family member.

Following the family correspondence are all non-family letters arranged alphabetically by receiver. The alphabetical list of names appears at the end of these notes. Letters not associated with a family member include a collection of correspondence from Anthony Morris to his children from 1790 to 1816.

Duplicate letters and duplicate copy books are noted at the end of the Register for the Correspondence. The list of Oversize copy books filed in the Oversize Materials follows that of the duplicate letters.

The Register notes individual letters that are unusual and significant by merit of the subject matter or the persons mentioned in the body of the letter.

1721-1970 14.75 Linear feet 36 boxes

This series includes diaries, essays, journals, notebooks, and poetry which reflect the characters, lifestyles, interests, and thoughts of the various authors. The earliest manuscript is an oath of allegiance signed by Caspar Wistar in 1721, and the latest is a typescript of a book about Wyck written in 1970.

Of note are the diaries kept by Reuben Haines III, Margaret Vaux Wistar Haines, and Caspar Wistar Haines II, the latter two of whom kept personal journals for over 65 years. Also of interest are a variety of notebooks kept by many family members on topics ranging from agriculture to horticulture, beer brewing, natural science, travels in the U. S. and abroad, patent inventions, and religion. Children's cypher books offer insight into early American educational practices, notably at the Quaker boarding school, Westtown; and testimonies to deceased persons provide biographical information about many of the family members represented in this collection.

A variety of miscellaneous writings includes such highlights as the Memoirs of the French Count de Miollis; a series of papers describing the exploits of a runaway slave, Henry Hudson, in 1819; and Notes prescribing methods for cleaning the rooms of yellow fever victims.

The material in this section is arranged into two categories. The first category contains writings by family members. The second category contains writings by unknown authors or persons other than immediate family members. These writings are arranged alphabetically by type of material beginning with Accounts and ending with Testimonies.

1746-1972 33.25 Linear feet 80 boxes

The Financial Material includes business and household accounts, bills and receipts, bank books and statements, and tax information which together present a remarkably complete record of the family's financial history. Certain of these materials document the purchase of food, clothing, and many of the furnishings still in the house; the employment of servants; and various improvements made to family properties. Also of interest are the records of family businesses, including two brewhouses (c.1790-1850), a lumber company (1911-1915), and an orchard (c.1940-1963).

The material in this section is divided into five categories: Accounts, Bills and Receipts, Banking, Miscellaneous Business and Receipt Books. In each category the material is organized by family name and is in chronological order. Oversized material is listed at the end of the category in which it is found.

  
  
  
  
  
1683-1967 11 Linear feet 22 boxes

This series contains information regarding the transfer of family wealth from one generation to another. Also included are those Financial Materials (receipts, accounts, banking, etc.) accumulated during the settlement of family estates. Some estates continued for decades, and both daily and business expenses for the duration are found within this series. For example, the Estate of Reuben Haines I (d.1793) contains many of the expenses incurred by his Philadelphia brewhouse during the early 19th century; the Estate of Caspar Wistar Haines I (d.1801) contains many of the expenses of Hannah Marshall Haines until her death in 1828; the Estate of Reuben Haines III (d.1831) contains virtually all of the expenses of Jane Reuben Haines until 1888; and the Estates of Catherine Haines Hartshorne, Caspar Wistar Haines I, and Reuben Haines III include many of the expenses of Ann Haines during her lifetime. This series, then, is an important adjunct to Series IV, Financial Materials.

The Estate Material is divided into two categories. The first includes materials involving the estates of those people who lived in and/or owned Wyck. These papers are organized by the sequential generations of family names, and then are arranged chronologically by the type of document (accounts, bills and receipts, legal materials, etc.).

The second category includes estate papers of people who did not own or live in Wyck on a regular basis. These materials are organized in alphabetical order by the person's name, and then are arranged chronologically by the type of document.

1684-1944 3.25 Linear feet 8 boxes

Included in Legal Materials are bonds, contracts, deeds, leases, mortgages, and promissory notes. The significance of these papers lies chiefly in their information about land ownership within the family.

The legal documents regarding real estate reveal a major source of long-term wealth of the Haines family. Reuben Haines I speculated in real estate with considerable success during the second half of the eighteenth century. Besides valuable land holdings in Philadelphia, he purchased huge tracts in northern and central Pennsylvania which his descendants inherited and variously rented or sold for cash profits.

The documents concerning the family's Philadelphia and Germantown properties are of interest for information on 18th and 19th century land divisions, notably on Second, Fourth, and Market Streets in Philadelphia, and on Germantown Avenue, Walnut Lane, Haines Street, and High Street in Germantown.

Finally, this series as a whole furnishes examples of the style and format of legal materials over a period of 250 years.

The material in this section is divided into two categories. The first category is organized by name followed by an alphabetical subject file.

The second category regards real estate and is arranged according to location and date of document. Oversized material is listed following each category.

  
  
1663-1961 6.5 Linear feet 16 boxes

Memorabilia includes a wide variety of materials, such as announcements, diplomas, membership cards, mementos, and programs. Many items in this series are of interest because of their age or rarity, such as early charge account tokens, passports, and valentines.

The material in this section is divided into two categories. The first category is organized by family name. The second category contains materials not associated with a particular person so is listed alphabetically by description (e.g., Addresses, Clippings, Postcards, Valentines).

Oversized Memorabilia is listed at the end. Dates are included when they are known.

  10 Linear feet 24 boxes

This series contains printed material collected by the family and reveals business, educational, and religious interests. Most of this material dates to the 20th century.

It is organized alphabetically by title and subject matter indicated on the folder heading.

1761-1958 5.5 Linear feet 13 boxes

This series provides a graphic complement to the manuscripts in the collection. Included are prints, original art, photographs, and maps.

Of interest among the prints are miscellaneous late 18th and early 19th century engravings, including a view of Wakefield Mills, Germantown. Family interest in natural history is reflected in prints of animals and plants. Also notable are prints of the homes of Charles Bonaparte and E. I. Dupont, and of homes in the Philadelphia area.

The photographs provide documentation of Wyck's interior and exterior appearance from 1871 through 1958. This section also includes photographs of family members who lived after photography became popular. Representations of many family members who lived before the invention of photography are provided in photographs of portraits. A collection of stereoscopic views of the U. S. Centennial at Philadelphia is also contained in this category.

Maps and plans included in this series provide documentation of 18th and 19th century land divisions in Germantown and Philadelphia. Also included are plans of Wyck before and after its renovation in 1824.

The material in this section is arranged in three categories: Original Art, Prints, and Photographs.

The Original Art consists of two parts. The first part is arranged by family name, for example, "Elizabeth Haines Warder, Drawing, 1827." The second part, consisting of unsigned works, is arranged in alphabetical order by the predominant subject of the pieces, for example, "Drawing, Prospect of the Green House."

The Prints are arranged in alphabetical order by title or predominant subject matter.

The Photographs are divided into four Categories: the Alphabetical File, Stereoscopic Views, Wyck, and Portraits. Photographs within each category are arranged in alphabetical order by title or predominant subject matter.

Oversized material is listed at the end of this section and includes blue prints, plans, drawings, photographs, prints and maps.

This series is not a subject category of itself, as it is based on size rather than content. The materials are listed throughout the collection in the appropriate series.

The Oversized Materials are organized in the following categories: account books, blue prints and plans, books, correspondence, drawings, genealogy, legal documents, legal documents regarding land, maps, memorabilia, photographs, prints, receipt books, rolledup material, and books in page boxes. Materials are organized alphabetically, except for the last two categories, which are boxed according to size. Box numbers begin with "OS", except for the last two boxes, which are numbered PB1 and PB 2.

Items in the Oversized Material are listed at the end of the series to which they pertain.

  Box 324-330
  

The microfilm collection of the Wyck Papers includes nearly all the Correspondence (Series II) and Writings (Series III) from the beginning of each series through to and inclusive of those papers of Caspar Wistar Haines II. Also on microfilm is a representative sampling of the Financial Material (Series IV) and the Estate Material (Series V) in the Wyck Papers, as well as a group of letters to and from Reuben Haines III now owned by Haverford College.

The microfilm collection is arranged in precisely the same order as the manuscript collection. For that reason this short Guide to the microfilm collection is best used in conjunction with the main Register which will supply auxiliary information about the contents of the materials on the film. To aid microfilm users there are title frames at the beginning of each new series and at the beginning of each new person's collection within a series.

The selectivity of the microfilm collection was based on the selective judgment of the Project Directors and Archivists who chose materials that seemed to be of most interest and use to general research. It is hoped that the full collection of the Wyck Papers will be microfilmed at some future date.

 Series II. Correspondence
1676-1971 31 Linear feet 80 boxes

The correspondence, dating from 1676-1971, is the most extensive series in the Wyck Papers. It includes the letters of family members, as well as correspondence to and from notable people as listed in this Register. The correspondence particularly illustrates the internal development of this family, the development of American thought and society, and the relationship between family and society. The emphases on religion, education, and concern for Blacks are topics which exemplify this dynamic. These issues emerge in the correspondence of Caspar Wistar Haines I, Hannah Marshall Haines, Reuben Haines III, Jane Bowne Haines I, Robert Bowne Haines I, and Caspar Wistar Haines II.

The Correspondence is arranged by the principal family member to whom it relates. These grouping of letters start with the correspondence of Reuben Haines I (1727-1793) and end with that of Mary Troth Haines (1892-1983). The separate groupings of letters are divided further into correspondence "from" the individual and "to" the individual. Each of these subdivisions is arranged in chronological order. The complete list of family members represented in the Papers follows the Introduction, on pages 3 and 4.

Family correspondence is, by its nature, interlocked. It is recommended, then, that researchers consider the papers of an individual as a part of a network of papers that includes those of his/her parents, siblings, spouses, and children. Research on the Correspondence of Reuben Haines I, for example, would not be complete without at least a cursory examination of the Correspondence of his wife, Margaret W. Haines, or their children, Caspar Wistar Haines, Reuben Haines II, Josiah Haines, or Catherine (Haines) Hartshorne. The Genealogy charts of the family found at the beginning of the Register will be useful for establishing the relationships between the various generations represented in the Papers.

The Correspondence has been arranged to focus upon those family members who owned and/or resided at Wyck. These individuals are indicated by an asterisk on the list of family members on pages 3 and 4. The Wyck Papers include an unusual number of letters written by these family members. These letters contain richly autobiographical statements about the writer and his/her world. In order to maximize the autobiographical quality of the Correspondence the letters of asterisked family members have been arranged in "From" and "To" categories. For example, the letters associated with Reuben Haines III are divided into "Correspondence from Reuben Haines III" and "Correspondence To Reuben Haines III." The letters are arranged chronologically within each of these two categories.

In the common case of intrafamily mail of Wyck residents the writer, rather than the receiver, was favored. For example, a letter from Reuben Haines III to his wife Jane B. Haines was filed chronologically within the "Correspondence From Reuben Haines III." Conversely, a letter from Jane B. Haines to her husband would be found in the "Correspondence From Jane B. Haines I."

Correspondence of those family members who did not live at Wyck (non-asterisked) was placed, when possible, in the correspondence of asterisked family members. For example, letters from William J. Haines, a non-resident of Wyck, to his brother Caspar W. Haines II, a resident of Wyck, were placed in "Correspondence To Caspar W. Haines II."

Letters among family members who did not live at Wyck (non-asterisked) were placed in the collection of the person who received the letter. For example, a letter from William J. Haines to his sister Mary M. Haines may be found in the "Correspondence To Mary M. Haines." Letters from family members to non-family members were placed in the "From" collection of that family member.

Following the family correspondence are all non-family letters arranged alphabetically by receiver. The alphabetical list of names appears at the end of these notes. Letters not associated with a family member include a collection of correspondence from Anthony Morris to his children from 1790 to 1816.

Duplicate letters and duplicate copy books are noted at the end of the Register for the Correspondence. The list of Oversize copy books filed in the Oversize Materials follows that of the duplicate letters.

The Register notes individual letters that are unusual and significant by merit of the subject matter or the persons mentioned in the body of the letter.
