Stack of journals ledgers and more
We purchased these together and I believe they may have belonged to one family. I seen several mentions of E. B. Albright. I think they were from the Orwigsburg area of Pennsylvania or in one of the surrounding towns of Northeast PA.
Ledger in pictures 2-5 I believe is filled with names and what looks to be monthly payments for something. There are 186 numbered pages. I would estimate it to be about 45% filled with entries. The other pages are blank. Dates are in the 1920s and 1930s.
Ledgers in pages 6-9 look to be household expenses Dates in the 1940s. The blue book is approximately 50% filled with entries. The gray book, also has dates in the 1940s is approximately 90% filled.
Books in picture 10: Cash book has entries from the 1930s and 1940s. This book is filled with expenses / budgets I would guess it to be 99% filled. The year book 1926 is from United States Fidelity and Guaranty Company Baltimore MD. There are handwritten entries in this book that I think have to do with milk. It is probably 25% filled.
There is a little brown book that seems to be journaling some trips that were taken. The inside page of the book is titled \"A Diary of the Travels of\" it is handwritten: William H Albright.
The books in picture 20 are receipt books, I think.
Interesting lot! I loved looking through the household expenses and seeing the prices and things that were purchased. Fun lot to sift through and peek into the past!!
