Nashville Area Account Book, 1820 March-October
This collection consists of a handwritten account for what appears to be a goods business selling in and around Nashville, Tennessee in 1820. Items such as cotton, molasses, sugar, salt, corn, coffee, herring, whiskey, and shot are listed, along with the prices and names of those buying. Several pages have been torn out, including at the beginning and end of the book. Many entries are crossed out or overwritten. Also included are two small pieces of ephemera found between the pages.
