Scope and Contents

From the Sub-Series: Boxes 4-5 contain materials from Katherine Nutter's family, the Fentons. Family members were father Morris, sisters Joanna (also known as Jane), Anne, and Mary, brothers John and Thomas, uncle J. B., and nephews Robert and Perry Fenton and Edmund Swan. Box 4 contains correspondence with these relatives, documents relating to the estates of deceased family members, and miscellaneous personal items. Of special interest in Box 4 is Folder 21, which contains notes on the family by Katherine Nutter (she was the last surviving sibling), and a brief genealogy of the Fenton family. Box 5 contains papers dealing with the Fenton family property in Huron, Ohio. Since Katherine Nutter lived in Utah during this period, the property was managed by a family friend, Addison Hoffman. An extensive correspondence between Hoffman and Katherine Nutter is filed in Box 13. Materials in both boxes are arranged chronologically.
