Item purchased on ebay

Edward, my husband, purchased an item on Ebay about ten years ago now which was said to have information on the Kipp family. It did have a small amount of information but it was principally on the Crum family. Unfortunately the documents had a strong odour (cigarette, etc) which was impossible to eliminate so I have, except for a few of the copies, discarded the bulk of the material. It was principally letters back and forth between the researcher to whom the records belonged and family members. Since no one had claimed them initially at the death of the researcher (which was more than twenty years ago now), I did not advertise their existence since the letters really did not contain any information that would not already be known to family members. I will, however, publish the material that the researcher produced in case family members search online. I can not attest to the authenticity of any of this work; I am simply providing it in case another may wish to have access to it. I no longer have the originals other than the picture which I will retain for a little longer in case someone notices it and wishes to have it. The name of the researcher is unknown to me.

 I will publish the image and a transcription in as much as I am able to read it. There are more pages which I shall also publish.
