Scope and Contents

From the Series: The section on finances is the largest single portion of the records of the Preston Nutter Corporation. It comprises slightly more than one-half of the collection, seventy-seven boxes organized into eight separate groups of records. Other papers dealing with financial matters can be found within virtually every section of the Nutter Corporation records. The materials in Section XII, therefore, are those that deal directly with the financial affairs of the corporation, such as taxes loans, banks, and family finances. The papers in Section XII are divided into the following groups: A. Family finances; B. Corporate papers; C. Insurance; D. Taxes; E. Receipts; F. Banks-correspondence; G. Banks-cancelled checks, statements, check stubs; and H. Ledgers. Boxes 67-70 contains records of the personal finances of members of the Nutter family. Box 71 contains corporate records, while records from insurance companies and funds are filed in Box 72. Tax records, including completed returns, assessments and property valuations, Social Security records, and worksheets used in the preparation of taxes for both individual members of the Nutter family and the corporation are filed in Boxes 73-84. Receipts covering over one hundred years of cattle ranching by Preston Nutter and his successors are in Boxes 85-92. Large numbers of receipts from one business are filed together chronologically. Single receipts are filed together alphabetically in Box 91, while railroad tickets and receipts for shipment of freight by rail are in Box 92. This section contains only receipts for goods and services. Correspondence, loan papers, balances sheets and notices from banks are filed in Boxes 93-96. Boxes 97-138 contain cancelled checks, check stubs, and bank statements from individual members of the Nutter, Price, and Story families, and from the corporation accounts. Checks, stubs, and statements are filed in chronological order. Ledgers are stored in Boxes 139-144.
