James Family papers
The James Family Papers archive is comprised of documents belonging to Ms. Bay James and on loan to the Center for Henry James Studies at Creighton University. Ms. James loaned the documents to the James Center in order to preserve and protect them, to make them centrally available for family members, and also, at the same time, to make them available to scholars.
