A complete 1910–1913 business ledger from Kerr & Connell Monument & Marble Works, Piqua, Ohio — a detailed financial and operational record of a Midwestern stone-carving partnership.
The firm was organized October 27 1910 by James Kerr and J. J. Connell, continuing the earlier Kerr Monument Works at 401 E. Downing Street. This book documents every aspect of the business: payroll, quarry freight, monument contracts, marble purchases, tool supplies, and customer accounts extending throughout Ohio, Indiana, and Kentucky.
Names appearing include Caroline McKern, Geo. Clark, Michael O’Donnell, A. H. Huston, Agnes Schultz, Vermont Marble Co., Bliss Design Co., and many others, alongside dozens of family monument commissions (Union City IN, Marietta OH, Cincinnati, and beyond).
The final pages record wages and freight through June 23 1913, then end with the note “Journal for future entries.”
