| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 93 | Title: | Jeptha Homer Wade Family Papers
| | | | Creator: | Wade, Jeptha Homer Family | | | | Dates: | 1771-1957 | | | | Abstract: | The Wade family was a prominent nineteenth and early twentieth century Cleveland, Ohio, family with business interests in the telegraph and railroad industries, mining, manufacturing, and banking. Jeptha Homer Wade spent his early life as an apprentice to a tanner and as a carpenter. He next turned his interest to the emerging telegraph industry. In 1849, he organized the Cleveland and Cincinnati Telegraph Company. In 1857, Wade moved to Cleveland as the Western Union Telegraph Company's first general agent. His business interests were extensive in Cleveland, including the Cleveland Rolling Mill Company and the Citizens Savings and Loan Association. Randall Palmer Wade worked with his father in the telegraph business, moving with him to Cleveland in 1857. His business interests included the Cuyahoga Mining Company; the Citizens Savings and Loan Association; the Cleveland Banking Company; the American Sheet and Boiler Plate Company, and the Chicago and Atchison Bridge Company. Jeptha Homer Wade II also worked in the telegraph industry; he later joined the banking community in Cleveland. He was an active philanthropist, serving as a trustee of the Western Reserve Historical Society, Western Reserve University, Adelbert College, and the Cleveland Museum of Natural History. He was an incorporator of the Cleveland Museum of Art in 1913, and later established a purchasing fund for the Museum. The collection consists of correspondence, wills, diaries, autobiographical sketches, memoranda, deeds, contracts, drawings, financial records, passport documents, land grants, notes, receipts, newspaper clippings, and scrapbooks, relating to Jeptha Homer Wade and his role in the telegraph industry in the Midwest, and to his son, Randall Palmer Wade, and grandson, Jeptha Homer Wade, Jr. Includes letters from or about Ezra Cornell, Amos Kendall, Samuel F.B. Morse, and James A. Garfield. Personal correspondence related to members of the Wade family, including Ellen Howe Garretson Wade and Ellen Howe Garretson, is included, as is travel journals written by various family members. The Wade family interest in spiritualism, particularly that of Jeptha Homer Wade after the death of his son Randall in 1876, is well documented in his personal correspondence.

| Manuscript Collection | Save | | 94 | Title: | R. Henry Norweb Family Papers
| | | | Creator: | Norweb, R. Henry Family | | | | Dates: | 1880-1989 | | | | Abstract: | Raymond Henry Norweb was born in England and moved to Elyria, Ohio, with his family in 1907. He became a diplomat with posts in various countries, including France, Japan, the Netherlands, the Dutch East Indies, Chile, the Dominican Republic, Portugal, Peru, and Bolivia. His last assignment was as ambassador to Cuba, 1945-1948. His wife, Emery May Holden Norweb, was the daughter of Albert and Katharine Davis Holden and granddaughter of Liberty Holden, owner of the Cleveland Plain Dealer. Emery Holden graduated from the Westover School in Connecticut in 1916, and then did hospital work with the American Ambulance Corps in France until her marriage to Henry Norweb in 1917. Dring their world travels, she collected Pre-columbian and Oriental art, which became the basis of collections at the Cleveland Museum of Art, where she served as a benefactor, officer, and trustee. Despite Norweb's worldwide assignments, the family maintained a home in Bratenahl, Ohio. Their children were Jeanne, Albert, and R. Henry Jr. Henry and Emery Norweb were both noted experts on world and U.S. coins, and the Norweb collection is one of the finest ever collected. The collection consists of scrapbooks, newspaper clippings, correspondence, manuscripts, travel memoirs, diaries, scripts, lectures, and notebooks. Emery May Norweb wrote diaries, memoirs, and articles on the many countries they visited, including an unpublished travel guide to the Netherlands. In addition, the collection contains family correspondence, including letters from Horace, Henry, and Emery May Norweb while living in Europe during World War I. The correspondence also includes copies of some State Department letters; correspondence on the purchase of coins for the Norweb collection; and letters from Albert and Katharine Holden to their daughters. Several scrapbooks contain photographs and clippings of Norweb's assignment as ambassador to Cuba 1945-1948. One scrapbook covers the courtship and married life of Albert and Katharine Holden. Emery May Holden's diary, 1916-1918, covers her life in Paris before and after her marriage to Henry Norweb. | | | | Call #: | MS 4577 | | | | Extent: | 3.40 linear feet (4 containers) | | | | Subjects: | Norweb, Raymond Henry, 1894-1983. | Norweb family. | Holden family. | Norweb, Emery May. | Holden, Albert Fairchild, 1866-1913. | Holden, Katharine Davis. | United States.
