The Alexander Graham Bell Family Papers span the years 1834-1970, with
the bulk of the material concentrated during the period 1855-1922. They include
correspondence,
diaries,
journals,
speeches,
publications, and
scientific
notebooks of
Alexander Graham Bell, his wife,
Mabel Gardiner Hubbard Bell, and their forebears
and descendants, members principally of the
Bell,
Hubbard,
Grosvenor, and
Symonds families. They document Bell's varied
activities throughout his entire career. Although the bulk of the items
pertains to the invention of the telephone in 1876, Bell's contributions to the
education of the deaf and his scientific and technological interests in a wide
range of subjects are also amply represented, including eugenics, marine
engineering, and aviation.
Among the scientific material in the papers is a group of
notebooks in
which Bell recorded his daily experiments and observations, including the entry
for March 10, 1876: "I then shouted into M[outhpiece] the following sentence:
'Mr. Watson - come here - I want to see you.' To
my delight he came and declared that he had heard and understood what I said."
Although much of Bell's voluminous correspondence is contained in the
General
Correspondence series, an even larger part is included in a
Subject File.
Among the many people with whom Bell corresponded are
Edward M. Gallaudet,
Joseph Henry,
Helen Keller,
George Kennan,
Samuel P. Langley,
Guglielmo Marconi,
Simon Newcomb,
John Wesley Powell,
Charles Sumner Tainter, and several presidents of
the
United States, including
Ulysses S. Grant,
Theodore Roosevelt,
William H. Taft, and
Woodrow Wilson.
The
Family Papers
series includes papers of Alexander Graham Bell's father,
Alexander Melville Bell, a leader in the field of
vocal physiology and elocution, and
Mabel Gardiner Hubbard Bell's father,
Gardiner Greene Hubbard, one of the founders of
the telephone industry and the first president of the
National Geographic Society. There is also a group
of letters exchanged between Alexander Graham and
Mabel Gardiner Hubbard Bell, 1875-1921. The Family
Papers extend to many of Bell's descendants, including members of the
Fairchild and
Grosvenor families.
Additions made to
the collection in 1981 and 1998 include correspondence and related papers of
the
Genealogical Record Office founded by Bell to
study the impact of heredity on longevity. Also included are docket books of
United States and
British patents, published volumes of the
American Annals of the Deaf, some of which were annotated
by Alexander Graham Bell, correspondence of
Mabel Gardiner Hubbard Bell and her daughter,
Marian Fairchild, scrapbooks, and court proceedings
of Bell patent litigation.
The
Grosvenor Family Papers in this division include
material related to Alexander Graham Bell and his family.

Diaries, 1867-1910
