This collection consists of correspondence, deeds, real estate transactions, photographs, and genealogical information relating to the Hartshorne family of Newark. Also included are the papers, correspondence, photographs, diaries, certificates and ephemera related to Judge Richard Hartshorne, former U.S. District Court Judge for New Jersey.

In January 2003, the children of Judge Richard Hartshorne donated four boxes containing their father’s papers, correspondence, photographs, diaries, certificates and ephemera and on folder of material of his grandfather, John Hartshorne (1801-1878), treasurer of Newark. These items were integrated into the collection in October 2004.
