- catalog abstract "The collection consists of correspondence, financial records, photographs, writings, and other papers of four generations of the U.S. branch of the Blackwell family assembled by George Washington Blackwell and his descendants. They record family activities, travel, professional work, and civic and reform involvements of a physically farflung but emotionally close-knit family. Of particular interest are the descriptions of medical education and practice in the letters of Elizabeth and Emily; the accounts of Anna's freelance newspaper work; and the records pertaining to George and Howard's real estate businesses. There are also accounts of school-teaching in the letters of Elizabeth, Emily, Emma Lawrence Blackwell, and her mother Sarah Stone Lawrence. Lucy Stone's activism against slavery and for woman's suffrage, and her Oberlin College experience are mentioned. Phoebe Stone Beeman describes life as a member of the first class of women at Wesleyan University (1876). The bulk of the collection centers on George and Emma Lawrence Blackwell and their children: Howard Lane, who married Helen Thomas, and Anna, who married Charles Belden. These papers illustrate family relationships, household management, club and reform activity, and social life in Orange, N.J., and Cambridge, Mass.".

- catalog description "Samuel, sugar refiner, and Hannah (Lane) Blackwell emigrated from England in 1832 and settled with their nine children in Cincinnati, Ohio. After Samuel's death in 1838, the family opened a school. Later the sons went into business. Samuel, a bookkeeper and business agent, married Antoinette Brown Blackwell, first woman to be ordained as a minister in the Congregational Church. Henry was involved in sugar refining and, with his suffragist wife, Lucy Stone, founded and edited The Woman's Journal. Howard returned to work in England and died there, and George Washington made a fortune in real estate and development. None of the five sisters married; Anna was a poet, translator, and journalist based mainly in Paris, France; Marian kept house for her relatives and settled eventually near Elizabeth in Hastings, England. Elizabeth and Emily were pioneering physicians and founders of the New York Infirmary for Women and Children, and Ellen taught school and wrote a biography of Anna Ella Carroll. The third generation consists of the children of Samuel, Henry, and George, and the adopted children of Elizabeth, Emily, and Ellen, and the fourth generation consists of George's grandchildren.".
