The first series focuses on the buildings and structures themselves as well as specific features of buildings, and documents details and changes to each location. Series 2 is made up of journal entries, ledgers, and lists that are relevant to different areas on the estate. The last series compiles all reports that aided in the Historic Structures Report, or reports that were built off of the HSR. All series are filed alphabetically by title, then chronologically.\nSeries 1. Buildings\nSeries 2. Journals and Inventories\nSeries 3. Reports","Mount Vernon's Restoration Department is responsible for all maintenance and repairs to every historic structure on the estate. Because of the unique and historic nature of the Mansion and all outbuildings, special expertise in historic building methods and structures is necessary to complete all of the necessary restoration work done to Mount Vernon's historic property. While there has always been staff dedicated to these tasks, the goals and demands of the profession have evolved and increased the need for highly skilled experts in the field of restoration. A structural survey of the Mansion was conducted in 1989 and recommended the completion of a historic structures report before any other major renovations were completed. The architectural firm Mesick-Cohen-Waite was hired to compile this report which was finished in 1993. Extensive historic documentation was necessary to complete the report and these Restoration Files are the final product of that work. Mount Vernon Library staff, restoration staff, and volunteers worked for months to collect this information that was vital for the success of the report. Later studies and reports, dated into the 2000s, were added to these files in order to keep the files up-to-date and complete. According to the 1992 Minutes of the MVLA, the Historic Structures Report is invaluable and \"presents for the first time a comprehensive chronology and various interpretations of the development of the Mansion house. It offers a systematic arrangement of the measured drawings collection, condition reports of all Mansion spaces, hardware analysis, recommended repairs, etc.\"","Original order was kept, however file naming and alphabetical order was \"cleaned-up\" to maintain controlled vocabulary. By request of the Restoration Department no records were discarded.","MVLA Minutes and Annual Reports, MVLA Publications, Measured drawings, photographs, Papers of the MVLA, Bound Volumes of the Superintendent's Letters, Diaries, and Monthly Reports","This collection contains original records and photocopied documentation that was compiled in the early 1990s to provide necessary assistance for the preparation of the Historic Structures Report.  Original materials include correspondence of Mount Vernon Superintendents, employees, and Vice Regents, accounts and financial documents, reports, photographs, and architectural drawings.

In 1910, twenty-four-year-old Williams attended the engineering school at the University of Toronto for training as a civil engineer.  Over the next eleven years, Williams used his engineering degree to work in various construction and agricultural positions such as bridge construction inspector for the Canadian Pacific Railroad and farm overseer.  After earning a second degree in horticulture from the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph, Ontario, Williams became an instructor and student at the Harvard University School of Design.  ","During a successful academic career in which he was awarded several grants and appointed an assistant professor at Harvard School of Design, Williams began to visit historic sites and make topographic surveys for his own research.  He became involved with restoration projects at various sites, and in 1931 the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association (MVLA) contracted Williams to prepare topographic drawings of Mount Vernon for the bicentennial of George Washington's birth.  After Williams completed his work at Mount Vernon, he continued to study the architectural and archaeological elements of George Washington's estate, in addition to his other projects and responsibilities.  In spring 1935, the MVLA again contracted Williams; his task was to restore the Kitchen Garden.  By the following winter, the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association hired Williams to be the Director of the new Research and Restoration Department.","During his time as Director of Research and Restoration, Williams uncovered and assisted in the reconstruction and/or restoration of several original structures on-site including the Kitchen Garden, Deer Park Wall, and two Ha-Ha Walls.  Williams also helped improve the historic integrity within the Mansion, as he both researched 18th-century material culture and used artifacts found during excavations to ensure the objects placed in the mansion and other site buildings were historically accurate for Mount Vernon.  Under Williams's supervision, the Department of Research and Restoration eventually expanded to oversee the restoration of the Mansion, Tomb, and Gardens, and the development of the Library.  \nIn May 1939, the board of the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association decided to discontinue both the Department of Research and Restoration and Williams's position as department head.  Soon thereafter, Williams left Mount Vernon and began his own business conducting architectural and archaeological research. ","Throughout the duration of his life, Morley Williams worked at various other historic sites including Tryon Palace in North Carolina.  He became a professor of landscape architecture at the North Carolina State College (now University) School of Design, and was later appointed chair of the Landscape Architecture Department.  In early 1977, Williams returned to Mount Vernon with his family for a visit and was well received. Approximately 10 months later, Morley Williams died of congestive heart failure.     ","Morley Williams was a pioneer of rigorous and scholarly study of Mount Vernon, especially on the evolution of the estate landscape.  As Director of the Research and Restoration Department, Williams used an interdisciplinary approach to research and restoration, by combining landscape architecture, history, historic preservation, and archaeology.  Much of the current understanding of Mount Vernon's history is based upon the findings of Morley Williams.  To this day, Morley Jeffers Williams's work continues to be an immeasurable asset to the restoration efforts at Mount Vernon.   ","Chronology:","The following is a more in-depth timeline charting the life and accomplishments of Morley Jeffers Williams. ","August 1, 1886 – Born in Tillsenburg, Ontario, Canada.","1910-1911 – Attended the engineering school at the University of Toronto for training as a civil engineer.","1911 – Hired as a bridge construction inspector by the Canadian Pacific Railroad.","1912 – Hired as bridge construction inspector and the acting engineer of bridge site surveys by the Montreal-Port Arthur District of the Canadian Northern Railway.  Eventually promoted to resident engineer in charge of roadbed grading and track-laying.","1914 – Resigned from his job and relocated to Kingsville, Ontario.  Became the co-owner of a grain elevator and cultivated three hundred acres of land with seed grades of corn, small grains, and grasses.  ","1922 – Began managing Vincent Massey's farm; some responsibilities included consulting about the buildings and presentations of other private farms.","1925: Earned a horticulture degree from the Ontario Agricultural College in Guelph, Ontario.","1927 – Became a student and instructor at Harvard School of Design.","1928 – Earned an MLA (landscape architecture) in city planning at Harvard University's School of Design.","1929 – Received the Sheldon Traveling Fellowship and studied landscape design in Europe and North Africa.  ","1930 – Became an assistant professor at Harvard School of Design.","March 1931 – Awarded a grant from the Clark Fund for Research in Landscape Design at Harvard to study \"American Landscape Design as Exemplified by the Plantation Estates of Maryland and Virginia, 1750 to 1860.\"","May 1931 – Visited various historic plantations, including Gunston Hall and Woodlawn, creating topographic surveys.","July 1931 – Contracted to prepare topographic drawings of Mount Vernon for the bicentennial of George Washington's birth.","Summer 1932 – Hired to complete Arthur Shurcliff's research and excavations at Stratford Hall.  Identified many original structures and sketched architectural restoration plans for the east garden at Stratford Hall.  Received a second grant from the Clark Fund, which allowed him to further his research on Virginia and Maryland plantations, including Monticello.","Summer 1933 – Supervised the restoration of the east garden at Stratford Hall.","Summer 1934 – Received funding from the Emergency Relief Administration of Massachusetts to restore God's Acre in Harvard Square, an old burial ground. Upon finishing this restoration project, Williams continued his architectural and archaeological assessment of the grounds at Mount Vernon.  ","May 1935 – Contracted to restore the Kitchen Garden at Mount Vernon under the supervision of Mrs. Horace Brown, the Vice-Regent for Vermont.  ","Summer 1935 – Continued to oversee the restoration of the Kitchen Garden at Mount Vernon.  He was also contracted to assess the history of White House landscaping in light of possible changes to design.  ","Winter 1935 – Hired by Mount Vernon as the Director of Research and Restoration.  ","Spring 1936 – Taught during spring semester at Harvard, then resigned his professorship in order to focus his efforts at Mount Vernon. Williams helped to rebuild and/or restore several original structures on-site including the Kitchen Garden and Deer Park Wall.  He used artifacts found during excavations such as door hinges and other hardware to model replicas for the newly restored buildings.  Williams also uncovered various original structures including two Ha-Ha walls and a cross-wall underlying the Bowling Green, which were previously unknown to the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association. ","1937 – Concerned with preserving the historic integrity of the site, Williams pointed out items and structures he deemed inaccurate such as various walkways and coaches.  As Director of the Department of Research and Restoration, Williams also focused on accessing primary documentation for research, as well as acquiring objects for Mount Vernon's collections.  ","1938 - Contracted Frances Benjamin Johnston to make photographic studies as a supplement to his measured drawings.  Her photographs were combined with an article written by Williams in the January 1938 edition of Landscape Architecture and the February issue of American Architect and Architecture.  Williams also assigned employees within the Department of Research and Restoration to research various collections located at the Library of Congress that he believed would help to maintain the historic integrity at Mount Vernon as restoration efforts continued.

Identified many original structures and sketched architectural restoration plans for the east garden at Stratford Hall.  Received a second grant from the Clark Fund, which allowed him to further his research on Virginia and Maryland plantations, including Monticello.","Summer 1933 – Supervised the restoration of the east garden at Stratford Hall.","Summer 1934 – Received funding from the Emergency Relief Administration of Massachusetts to restore God's Acre in Harvard Square, an old burial ground. Upon finishing this restoration project, Williams continued his architectural and archaeological assessment of the grounds at Mount Vernon.  ","May 1935 – Contracted to restore the Kitchen Garden at Mount Vernon under the supervision of Mrs. Horace Brown, the Vice-Regent for Vermont.

","Spring 1936 – Taught during spring semester at Harvard, then resigned his professorship in order to focus his efforts at Mount Vernon. Williams helped to rebuild and/or restore several original structures on-site including the Kitchen Garden and Deer Park Wall.  He used artifacts found during excavations such as door hinges and other hardware to model replicas for the newly restored buildings.  Williams also uncovered various original structures including two Ha-Ha walls and a cross-wall underlying the Bowling Green, which were previously unknown to the Mount Vernon Ladies' Association. ","1937 – Concerned with preserving the historic integrity of the site, Williams pointed out items and structures he deemed inaccurate such as various walkways and coaches.  As Director of the Department of Research and Restoration, Williams also focused on accessing primary documentation for research, as well as acquiring objects for Mount Vernon's collections.  ","1938 - Contracted Frances Benjamin Johnston to make photographic studies as a supplement to his measured drawings.  Her photographs were combined with an article written by Williams in the January 1938 edition of Landscape Architecture and the February issue of American Architect and Architecture.

Oversaw archaeological excavations that exposed the original foundation of the governor's mansion, as well as uncovered other structural aspects of the site such as water sources and outbuildings.  Since no garden plots were discovered, Williams drew plans for formal gardens authentic to the time period Tryon Palace was first constructed.  During the excavations and restoration, Williams salvaged many artifacts, which he never fully identified and/or processed.  This later became a point of contention between Williams and the benefactors of Tryon Palace.","1961 – Returned to Harvard as a lecturer for landscape architecture.","December 1961 – Settled accounts with Tryon Palace by returning all artifacts to the Tryon Palace Commission.  ","1962-1977 – Williams and his wife continued to restore historic sites and landscapes for the remainder of his life.","February 1977 – At ninety-one, Williams returned with his family to Mount Vernon for a visit, and was well received by Regent Mrs. John H.
