Historical/biog note:
John Simmons was manager of the Ulster Iron Works, situated near Saugerties, New York, from 1828 to 1863.
Review:
These papers consist chiefly of correspondence and financial records related primarily to personal business affairs of John Simmons. Correspondence includes letters from William Young, Henry Carey, and his brother, Edward Simmons, all of whom were also involved in the operations of the Ulster Iron Works. Financial records consist mostly of account books that document investments in real estate, banks, manufacturing, etc., some of which may have been related to the iron-works. Also includes numerous accounts that appear to be more personal in nature, such as church pew rents, livery services, medical care and medicine, and maintenance of dwelling houses and grounds.
