	Peggy Seeger Addition, 1886-2023 (bulk 1995-2023) (continued)
BOX 231-235		Annual Boxes, 1971-2023
			The subseries consists of seven boxes (some originally labelled "dead boxes" by Seeger) with a year designation. Items in a box may precede or surpass the label date. Items in each box were not in any particular order when received; the file units for each year are an attempt to impose some logic to assist the user. Materials consist of articles, brochures and flyers, catalogs, clippings, correspondence, lyric sheets, newsletters, photographs, set lists, songbooks, and transcripts.
			Arranged chronologically by year and alphabetically by file unit therein.

BOX 236		Correspondence, 1954-1959, 1995 see also Letters to Family
			The bulk of the subseries consists of correspondence between Peggy Seeger and her father, Charles L. Seeger, Jr., and very occasionally, her sisters Barbara and Penelope. PS discusses her life in Europe, first at her brother, Charles Seeger III's, house and then her travels in eastern Europe, Russia, and China. CLS discusses his concern for Peggy and his changing life following the death of RCS and his marriage to Margaret Taylor. PS also dicusses her burgeoning relationship with Ewan MacColl and her pregnancy with son Neill. A significantly smaller set of letters addressed to her children covers PS's 1995 travels across the United States with Irene Pyper-Scott.
