Original 1859–1890s farm and household account journal from Denis Lloyd of Franklin, New York, accompanied by an early printed Albany & Susquehanna Railroad Company stock installment receipt made out to Denis Lloyd.

This long-working ledger shows decades of agricultural, labor, barter, livestock, and household accounts, written in dramatically inconsistent handwriting—some dark and formal, some faded pencil, some hurried or childish—indicating multiple hands and long-term family use.

Recurring surnames and trading partners include LLOYD, PALMER, HOSFORD, PAYGE (PAGE), HARRIS, WALKER, BEDFORD, ELDRED, KNEELAND, and others.

Representative content from across the decades includes:

• hay, rye flour, oats, wheat, cider, potatoes, butter, apples

• livestock entries: pigs, turkeys, hides, hens, “Jersey heifer,” “White cow,” yearling stock

• day labor, shearing sheep, cutting wood, haying, digging potatoes

• charges for clothing, boots, overalls, calico, shirts, mending shoes

• butter sales, grain sales, lumber tallies

• settlement notes, cross-outs, arithmetic work

• scattered later entries into the 1880s–1890s, including livestock breeding and cattle notes

The included railroad stock receipt documents Denis Lloyd paying an installment on shares in the Albany & Susquehanna Railroad — a very nice extra piece of ephemera tied directly to the same family.

A richly used, multi-decade rural New York farm account journal with strong genealogical and local-history value.
