Anonymous King's County Store ledger

  • CA PCA Acc2350
  • Fonds
  • 1826-1829

The fonds consists of a four hundred page ledger dating from 1826 to 1829. The individuals listed within the ledger are sometimes documented according to the community they are from, or by their occupation. Although the majority of the patrons documented within the ledger come from the communities of Cardigan, Launching, and Sturgeon, there are also individuals listed within the ledger from a variety of communities throughout King's County such as Montague, Brundenell, Georgetown, Murray Harbour, and Grand River. Noticeable residents of Charlottetown including Francis Longworth and Daniel Hodgson are also listed as patrons of this store.

General merchant, King's County, ledger : [1810-1843]

  • CA PCA Acc4218
  • Fonds
  • Microfilmed 1991

The fonds consists of the ledger (1810-1843) of an unidentified general merchant (possibly James MacDonald of St. Peter's Lake) who was supplying goods to people in communities from Pt. Deroche to East Point including Savage Harbour, Goose River, St. Peter's Bay, Naufrage, Allasary, Rock Barra, Morell River, Scotchfort, and Cable Head. It gives names and addresses, and sometimes occupations, of individuals having accounts with the merchant. There is a partial index in the beginning which lists the accounts by community. It appears to be one of a series of ledgers as most of the accounts have been carried forward from an earlier book.
