The Papers of Mary Abbott and Julia Chester Emery primarily consist of correspondence documenting major events in the lives of the sisters. Julia Emery’s correspondence documents her travels, retirement, and death, leading to a rather unbalanced picture of her life. Mary Emery’s correspondence is much more prolific, with letters existing for almost every year between 1862 and 1901. Also included in the collection are manuscripts, printed material, clippings, and memorabilia. Limited correspondence, biographical information, and literary works relating to other family members, including their father, John Emery, are also present.

The collection comprises the personal and professional papers of Pamela Pauly Chinnis, primarily from her time serving as President of the House of Deputies from 1991-2000. It includes speeches, sermons, writings, correspondence, notes from various committees served on, and notes from various conventions and conferences attended. Within the Subject Files are numerous files on women’s participation in The Episcopal Church. Also included are family photographs and personal papers dating back to Chinnis’ youth, as well as some professional papers from the 1980s.

The Quin Papers include over 700 sermons, a complete set of pocket diaries, scrapbooks, ledgers documenting clergy received and transferred, ordinations, and postulants in the Diocese of Texas, letters of ordination, printed material, appreciations, correspondence and other materials pertaining to Bishop Quin. Also included is a notebook belonging to Mrs. Hortense Quin from the 1946 Triennial meeting and typescript notes for addresses she wrote regarding those meetings.
