The Papers of Alfred A. Gilman (1878-1964) and Gertrude C. Gilman (1864-1936) consist primarily of personal letters written from China and sent home to parents, relatives, and siblings, and later to their children and grandchildren. Other papers in the collection relate to Alfred’s mission work, mission financial records, letters from friends and family, and personal documents.
