Letters from Mary (1815-1827) discuss their children, visits, friends and relatives, and a party at Mrs. Skinners at which LaFayette was a guest (1824). Also, a eulogy for Eliza Proud, 1838.

Elizabeth Proud received a letter from her sister Ann Proud (Maxwell) in 1806 that discussed Baltimore society.

Letters to Hannah Proud (1813-1822) are from her sister, Sarah Proud, her uncle, James Otis, her cousin, Deborah Otis, and friend Mary Greene. Sarah Proud, in addition to family news, discussed poetry and sent Hannah poems such as On Florios Departure for Canada (1813); an unidentified correspondent expressed anger at Great Britain and commented that it was wicked to attack the

Canadians (1813); Deborah Otis wrote of new whaling inventions (one in 1816, and another, a whaling gun by Francis Rotch, in 1819); Deborah also wrote about Quaker meetings, as did Mary Greene, who also wrote about literary meetings and a group called Fragment.

John Greene Proud's papers include incoming and outgoing letters and his passports. Incoming letters (1803-1867) include ones from his friend and business partner, Rufus Bigelow, about forming their partnership; from his wife, Eliza, about the death of Anna Maria Coale (1813), and the death of Lurana Proud (his sister) in 1814; from John Quincy Adams about a visit from Proud (Aug. 6, 1812); from Joseph Hopkinson about the defense of Baltimore, and deploring the war (1814); also from Joseph Hopkinson about plans for a bank (1838), and about borrowing a portrait of Thomas Hopkinson for an art exhibit at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts (1843); from his father, John Proud, about the defense of Baltimore, and commenting that the British would take New Orleans (1814); from Anna Maria Proud, his niece, about society people (1843-1852, 1863); from Reverdy Johnson about a retainer, and enclosing a note from Robert Eden (Dec. 11, 20, 22, 1858); and from his friend, B. Rodman, about the latter's losses in the Civil War (1863, 1867).

John Greene Proud's outgoing letters (1800-1863) include ones to Rufus Bigelow about their friendship and partnership (1800); about a yellow fever epidemic in Baltimore and Norfolk that left 1200 dead in Baltimore (Dec. 22, 1800); the presidential election and violence connected with it (1800); the dissolution of the firm of Proud and Thurston (1803); prices for various commodities (tea,

cotton, tobacco, coffee, cocoa); foreign trade; various cargoes and ships); business with J. D. Patterson; and a panic in New York (Aug. 12, 1803) because of fever. John's outgoing letters also include one from himself and others from Hamburg to John Quincy Adams in St. Petersburg wishing him success on his mission and listing American grievances concerning trade restrictions (Oct. 6, 1809). To his friend, Mr. Rodman, John wrote about Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation and its constitutionality, and about Napoleon III's designs in the in offering to negotiate the Civil War (1862-1863). John's passports are for the years 1809 and 1812.

The John Proud family record (n.d.) contains genealogical information on John Greene Proud's grandfather. There is a death notice for John's sister, Lurana Proud (1814).

Letters to John Greene Proud, Jr. from 1832-1860 largely concern church and family affairs. His father, John Greene Proud, wrote to him at college in 1832 mentioning a great speech of Mr. Clay; his cousin, Anna Maria Proud, wrote about a visit with Ann Letitia Brune (1832); I. Prentiss Poe described life at Princeton and a a prayer meeting at St. Luke's (1853); R. H. Chamberlain, from Oxford, Md. complained that Sunday School numbers had dwindled and requested that Proud do what he could to get them a bishop at the next convention (1859); John H. Alexander wrote about his election to the vestry at St. Luke's church (1859); and John Greene Proud, Sr. and Robert Maxwell Proud wrote that they were enjoying the parson's retreat at Cedar Nook (1859).

Joseph Proud's papers include a financial document authorizing payment to him of some cash; and a letter from Ann Maxwell about a visit from Hannah Proud, and the difficulty that Eliza had had in childbirth (1822).

Letters (1815-1840) of Mary A. W. Coale Proud (Mrs. William T. Proud) include ones from Esther Duche Hill about family news and Anna Maria Proud (1824, 1831); and a letter from Mary Proud to Mrs. Collins commenting on the good library and literary paper (at Morven), and religious education for Anna Maria, her daughter.

Robert Maxwell Proud's letters (1839-1883) are from his cousin, Anna Maria, about her visit to New Bedford (1843); from the Treasury Department appointing him as Assessor of Internal Revenue for the 3rd Collection District of Maryland (1869); and a bound volume of expressions of appreciation from IRS officers (1883).

Letters (1812-1816) to Sarah Proud (Mrs. Peter Hartshorn) are from Ann Maxwell about the death of Anna Maria Coale (1813); from S. K. Arnold, in New Bedford, Mass., about society in Washington, D. C. and describing a visit from Washington Irving, being invited to a (literary) debate, the progess of the village in literature, and asking for some of Sarah's poetry (1813); and from her sister, Hannah, about family affairs.

Letters to William Tower Proud (1812-1831) include ones from his father, John Proud, of New Badford, Mass., concerning the health of Anna Maria Coale, and news of William's brother, John in St. Petersburg. John Sr. thought that the situation there might force John Jr. to leave. John Proud commented to William that New England was suffering and that the Southern states were benefitting from the War (of 1812) (Jan. 2, 1812); and he pondered the result of the exit of the late Secretary of the Navy upon the career of his son-in-law, Nathaniel G. Maxwell (Jan. 19, 1812). John Proud wrote to William (Oct. 17, 1813) that he thought that peace should be pursued in England, and not in Russia, and he

commented on attempts to conquer Canada. His brother, John Greene Proud, wrote to William from London on July 10, 1813, telling him to do his duty no matter what he thought of the War; commenting that Gallatin and Bayard would probably accomplish neither object of mission to St. Petersburg; discussing maritime rights; and reporting jubilation in London over the capture of the Chesapeake. Sarah Proud wrote to William about an excursion to Mt. Vernon (1813); and his wife, Mary, and daughter, Anna Maria, expressed anti-slavery sentiments in letters in 1831.

Some miscellanous papers that probably belonged to the Proud family include a letter from Daniel Thayer (addressee unknown), who sold the ship and cargo under his command while in Barbados and then went under a foreign flag (1856); a signature of J. Vandenhoff (1828); an essay describing the location of Ellicott's Patapsco Mills (written for the literary box at Morven), (1828); an undated essay on prayer; a letter and a card from Adalbert Volck to Mr. Murray (illustrated letters about the baking business) (n.d.); three letters in French from the French consul in Baltimore (April 27, 1813); and a letter from E. Rumsey to Capt. R. T. Spence (Oct. 17, 1813) saying that he won't leave the schooner Nonsuch until his command is reinstated, that he was roughly used by the Secretary of the Navy, and that he won't resign while the country is at war.
