MCHC76-097
Part 2 (MCHC76-097): Additions, 1830-1920
Physical Description: 0.2 cubic feet (1 archives box) 
Scope and Content Note: Additions, 1830-1920, consisting of "A German Odyssey," a history by Lewis Sebring of his Daniels and Bulla family relatives, together with miscellaneous documents and correspondence of several members of the two families. Sebring's mother was Agnes Emma Bulla Sebring and his grandmother was Mary Daniels Bulla. This material was originally accessioned as a seperate collection and partially processed in 1980, at which time the volume was reduced. A draft register prepared at that time is in the Sebring case file. Because of its disparate nature the accession was returned to the Sebring collection in 2008.
