The collection primarily consists of photographs and a few papers. The papers include two letters, one written to Aunt Bessie from unknown (1925) and another from Ellen Brewster Beebe (1889). Ephemera includes miscellaneous Hudson programs, David Duncan Beebe's certificate acknowledging his election to Senator of the General Assembly, dated October 11, 1877. The photograph collection is extensive and includes many portraits and photographs of the Beebe family and descendants (including Greens and Hodges). The photographs also include various buildings and scenes in Hudson. All photographs have been digitized and are individually cataloged in the library's photograph database.
