Gorham Family

  • CA KPH 1.5
  • Fonds
  • 1725-2008

This fonds is broken down into five series, which are Historical Information, Miscellaneous, Correspondence, Genealogical Information, and an individual series for Raymond Paddock Gorham. Contained within it are vital records that pertain to the family, histories and accounts, genealogical reports, family trees, and photographs. There is a gap in the records before the first census of the area in 1851. After that time, however, the family's presence in the area is well documented.
