Genealogy and family information from Kenneth Roose (2 of 2), 1877, 1977, undated

Series 5 contains genealogy and family information on Mahan. The bulk of the material was compiled by Kenneth Roose, former Professor of Economics, who was a descendant of Mahan. Two cards from 1889 and 1894 announce the death of Mahan and his second wife, respectively. A 1922 letter accompanied the transfer of Mahan's scale (housed in the Objects Collection, RG 35). Also included are photocopies of letters, articles, family histories, genealogical charts, and Revolutionary War service records of Mahan's father, Samuel.
