Description
An account of the resource
In 1976 my great aunt, sold family heirlooms; a japanned high chest and dressing table to Zeke Liverant, an antique dealer from Colchester, CT, who sold them to Albert Sack for the Kaufman's, renown collectors and philanthropists.
The high chest had been a treasured family heirloom for more than 250 years, passed down over the generations from our New England ancestors.
The high chest by John Scottow, who had been a neighbor of the Abbott and Cogswell families of Boston. The dresser was by Randle Davis shop also in Boston. Financial necessity prompted the sale to a private collector. Up until then family tradition was to donate papers or items with historical significance to public museums such as the Connecticut Historical Society and Wadsworth Athenaeum.
Today we are grateful knowing our lost and now found heirlooms have a permanent home, accessible to the public today and in the future. The high chest at VMFA and dressing table at National Museum of Art in DC

Small notebook of ivory sheets with writing and silver clasp with writing on each page was inherited from the granddaughter of Elizabeth L. C. Dixon. The notes were various lists of items to remember, one family name "Kirkpatrick" sleigh for New Years. Just like to today, we all need little post it notes to help us remember the minutia.
