Correspondence

The Correspondence series, 1928-1965 (1.5 linear feet), contains Greenman's alphabetically arranged incoming and outgoing correspondence from his time at the Museum of Anthropology at the University of Michigan. Greenman's correspondence reflects his friendships with many Michigan amateur archaeologists, including Ira Butterfield, Fred Dustin, Wilbur Cunningham, Edmond P. Gibson and others. Some files include discussion of Michigan sites and initiatives, but a great deal of the correspondence relates to the business of the Michigan Archaeological Society; much of this correspondence is routine in nature, concerning memberships and publications. Access to portions of these files is restricted; please contact the reference archivist for further information.
