Background

Scope and content:

The collection consists of research materials, clippings and correspondence relating to the Ruebush, Funk, Moon, and Andrews families. The materials were gathered by Bertha A. (Betsy) Curtin as she researched her ancestors.

Arrangement:

The materials are grouped together by family, following the organization originally devised by Mrs. Curtin. Within some of the larger family groupings, the materials are further grouped by type. The collection also includes a group of pamphlets that were not directly related to any of the families included; they are grouped together in one folder.
