Purchase of storage furniture and preservation supplies to rehouse 250 linear feet of manuscripts related to the life and career of theater and dance educator Edith Fetherston and her husband John Fetherston, a New York politician, engineer, and inventor.

Packwood House Museum requests support to purchase storage shelving and preservation supplies, including boxes, folders, and related items. The project is based on the recommendations of an archival consultation made possible by a previous NEH Preservation Assistance Grant.
