Custis, George Washington Parke

Consists of a significant number of National Bank of Washington individual deposit and loan ledgers. In the early twentieth century, National Bank of Washington deposit ledgers were compiled by bringing together individual account records for long periods and then placing them in a large binder. Therefore, individual accounts should appear continuously and unbroken over several pages. Unless specified otherwise, all deposit ledgers include patrons with last names A through Z.

This artificial collection was created to manage documents that are too small to be separate collections of their own.
