Bound journal of Daniel Claus that documents his stay at Caughnawaga from 1762-1766. There are three typescript copies of the journal by Lillian Doyle, two different versions. The manuscript appears to have been bound out of order. One transcript copy is ordered as the original is ordered the other is ordered as Lillian Doyle thought the pages should be bound, which is chronologically. Also included are 2 copies of a typed manuscript by E. J. Devine titled Historic Caughnawaga, a map accompanies this. Also two publications, Daniel Claus' Narrative of his relations with Sir William Johnson, published June 1904 by the Society of Colonial Wars in the State of New York and a publication showing excerpts from A prospective-plan of the Battle near Lake George by Samuel Blodget. Also two folders of notes and correspondence by Lillian Doyle to Edwin Kenneth Burnett, regarding Claus and the journal, from the 1940s. This includes some bibliographic information of works that mention Claus and some of her research on the journal.
