Subseries VII: General Manager's Office Records, 1899 - 1917
Scope and Contents
The General Manager's Office Records consist of the files of L. L. Hubbard and F. W. Denton, the Copper Range Company's first two general managers. These records provide insight into the operation of the Copper Range Company properties during their first two decades of operation, particularly given the lack of early records from the Boston Office. Some material from F. W. Denton before he became general manager is also included in this subseries.
The files of the Copper Range Company's subsequent general managers can be found in Series VII, Subseries V: William H. Schacht Files.
