Abstract:
The Porter-Phelps-Huntington Family Papers document the history of one extended family over 270 years or eight complete generations. The collection is the property of the Porter-Phelps-Huntington Foundation, which operates the Porter-Phelps-Huntington House Museum in Hadley, Massachusetts.
The house was lived in by six generations of this family, through its entire history, from its construction in 1752, to its incorporation as a museum in 1955. The house museum contains family furnishings and memorabilia and these papers document the history of the house and family.
