Peggy Seeger Addition, 1886-2023 (bulk 1995-2023) (continued) | |||||||||||||
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. |

BOX 241-245 | Diaries (appointment books), 1974-2019 | ||||||||||||
This subseries consists of appointment books and diary pages that PS fashioned as "a duty book - a way of life." The volumes maintained the operating information she needed to manage her household and professional activities. As such the volumes contain grocery lists, MacColl family medical appointments, meeting dates, phone numbers and addresses, repair work to be done, song lists, to-do lists, and trip planning. Volumes for the years 1974-1989 also include appointments and events related to Ewan MacColl. |
