Notes
The Hoskinson Series was originally owned by Nella Sophia (Hoskinson) Baily [1893-1975] - wife of Ralford Baily-Purman, daughter of Robert Luther Hoskinson and Margaret Rozella Smith. Nella passed the items to her daughter, Peggy Louise Baily, who later gave them to her friend, Karen Maset. Karen donated the items to Glenn Toothman and Candice Lynn Buchanan for the Greene Connections: Greene County, Pennsylvania Archives Project in 2016-2018. After digitization, the Hoskinson Series was donated to the Greene County Historical Society for preservation.
