Description of Ledger, 1872 - 1895
Scope and Contents
The ledger measures 32 x 14 cm of marbled paper in shades of brown paper over board covers with green leather spine with three sets of double bands in gold and the number 3 at the very lowest edge.
The ledger contains 100 pages of blue and pink lined pages loosely bound in the spine. Although Greenhills Slade Quarley and Zechariah Thomas are listed as the first item in the ledger, there are many mercantile entries of pioneering families in Lehigh County doing business with A. Dorward & Co. It is more likely that the ledger is of the A. Dorward & Co. business rather than the Greenhills Slade Quarley.
