Scope and Content

From the Collection:

The collection contains material compiled by William D. Shipman regarding the history of Cleaveland House including a 1993 typescript "Notes on the History of the Parker Cleaveland House, 75 Federal St. Brunswick" by Shipman, with photocopies of supporting documents, as well as architectural sketches, miscellaneous correspondence, and newspaper clippings. Other materials about the house (bulk 1959-1991) include mortgage information and rules for tenants. There are also images and newspaper clippings removed from a Cleaveland House scrapbook kept by Shipman. Scrapbook images date from ca. 1860, with the bulk being from 1951-1970. Most are of the house interior, exterior, and grounds, and do not include occupants or guests. Among the exceptions is a ca. 1902 image of Oliver Otis Howard, Thomas Brackett Reed, Melville Weston Fuller, and William De Witt Hyde in front of Cleaveland House.

Acknowledgment of non-neutrality

The George J. Mitchell Department of Special Collections & Archives, like all archives and special collections libraries, is the creation of human beings who have collected, organized, and described things in ways that reflect personal, cultural, societal, and institutional biases. Although we strive to preserve and present collections in a manner that is respectful to the individuals and communities who create, use, and are represented in the collections, we acknowledge that our systems are neither neutral nor perfect. We encourage you to let us know if you encounter materials, descriptive language, or practices that are offensive or harmful, particularly those for which inadequate context or warning is offered. We are committed to modifying and updating our descriptive practices to use respectful and inclusive terminology and appreciate your help in this work. We look forward to supporting you in your research and learning together.
