Collection Organization

The collection is comprised of financial records of the Mackinac Transportation Company. Materials mainly consist of paid bills, checks, and a ledger of account. These records provide insight into the day-to-day logistics of running a shipping company in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. The paid bills and checks cover 1889-1899, while the ledger covers 1918-1923. There is no coverage for 1900-1917. A small amount of correspondence and accounts payable for 1890-1893 are also present.
