Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Garden (AARG)
Scope and Contents
Original order is somewhat maintained in these project files, although separated into Rockefeller family (and Beatrix Farrand) records (Boxes 31-33), Patrick Chassé's project files (Boxes 34-39), and the publication about the visitors’ guide (Boxes 41-42). See also Project files for the Rockefellers (David and Richard). See Chassé's professional library (cataloged in Minerva) for Abby Aldrich Rockefeller and Abby Aldrich Rockefeller Garden related books (including PC 11 and PC 24). Many of the original historical materials were found in the Rockefeller Archive Center (Sleepy Hollow, New York). Some materials appeared outside of the original cartons that this project came in; they were integrated, if possible.
