Personal and professional material, 1877-1920
Scope and Content
The collection documents the personal and professional lives of George and Alice Gott. Alice Gott's papers include a physics notebook, an assortment of personal and professional materials kept in a loose leaf notebook, and school records while she was a teacher. George Gott's materials include some miscellaneous material, including a diploma, a mortgage deed for his parents' home, an announcement of the opening of his hardware store, an oversize 1931 calendar advertising Gott's store, and a booklet, "The first fifty years: 1912-1962" of the Twinsburg Banking Company, where Gott served as Vice President and Director. A tie and a dicky belonging to Gott are also part of this collection (located in the artifact collection). Also, his papers include three letters while mayor of Hudson.
The collection also includes photographs and postcards. Among the photographs are a Hudson school class from 1907 (perhaps picturing George Gott?) and a portrait of an unidentified female. The postcards include views of the town hall and area churches as well as a few images of Hudson resident William Branch. The collection includes some collected newspaper articles, primarily articles about the Gott family.
