There are lists of the prices of raw materials and parts, with detailed notations of the time taken to build specific parts of wagons. Also included are some detailed designs for wagons and wagon parts for many different purposes, such as the Cornwallis slovens, sloven wagons, farm wagons, crank wagons, spring slovens, gigger wagons, grocery express wagons, lumber trucks, mill wagons, and dump wagons. Sometimes the name of the customer who ordered the wagon is given. Some of the designs are signed with the initials J.W. McF., probably for James Walter McFarlane. A few invoices from suppliers and lists of materials purchased from suppliers are also included.

Textural material, photographs and negatives, ephemera, and small objects relating to the Hooper family and St. Andrews Seniors Club. The photos are of various people, places, scenery, and events from Charlotte County and of the last century. Most textural material is newspaper and newspaper clippings of various importance such as obituaries to a local report on the Hooper lives to poems dedicated to living and resting members of their family. Ephemera is not necessarily connected intellectually to the Hooper family, but rather can be related due to the material being enclosed with other supporting material. Other textual material can include documentation and biographies of members of the family and their accomplishments and passing.
