McAlpine Logging Company journals
Scope and Contents
The collection contains account journals, cashbooks, and employee ledgers from the McAlpine Logging Company and the Lutsen Lumber Company. These ledgers were obtained from a sale of the John McAlpine Estate and were not adequately identified. Three of the ledgers appear to belong to the Lutsen Lumber Company, and the other four may come from the McAlpine Logging Company. The relationship between the two companies has not been established. Among the three Lutsen ledgers are two account journals, 1905-1910, and a cash book, 1905-1910. The McAlpine Company ledgers include two account journals, 1906-1909, and two employee ledgers, 1906-1910.
