BIOGRAPHICAL STATEMENT

Edwin Whitefield, landscape and flower painter, was born in Dorset, England in 1816, and emigrated to the United States by 1838. He immediately began sketching in hopes of publishing some of his work; his style was typically American. In 1841 and 1842, he traveled along the Hudson River, painting views of Hudson Valley estates, and in 1844 he was in New York City. Emma C. Embury's American Wild Flowers in Their Native Haunts, published in 1845, contained illustrations by Whitefield. Two years later he issued a series of views under the title, North American Scenery. During this period, Whitefield taught drawing classes to supplement his income. From l856 to l859 Whitefield made several trips to Minnesota to promote his real estate interests there; from this period date a number of watercolor landscapes now in the Minnesota Historical Society. After the Civil War, Whitefield lived in Boston and Reading, Massachusetts, and published five volumes of The Homes of Our Forefathers, which showed early houses of New England. In 1888-1889 he traveled to England and Scotland to promote English settlement in Minnesota. Whitefield died in 1892. The Stokes collection at the New York Public Library constitutes the best-known source of his lithographs.

Whitefield’s first wife was named Kate. They had several children: Edwin Albert, Wilfred, Cordelia, Constance, Rogvald, and Edith. However, Whitefield and Kate separated in 1853. His second wife was Lillian Stuart, and they had two daughters, Lillian (Lillie) and Mabel.

SCOPE AND CONTENT

The Whitefield papers at this repository include: two volumes of sketchbooks done between 1841 and 1844 for a proposed publication, "Hudson River Rail Road Illustrated," with the names of Washington Irving and other potential subscribers written on one page; travel diaries with sketches and short descriptions of towns through which Whitefield traveled; a more extensive sketchbook of trips through Illinois and up the Mississippi River in 1859; watercolors of landscapes; lithographs made for commercial uses and for published illustrations; photolithographs of places in New England (ca. 1873-1876); pencil sketches, many of which are rough, of city scenes; pen and ink sketches; drawings of houses; notes with sketches of New England houses and notes about New England towns; and newspaper clippings of articles he wrote and/or illustrated.

The sketchbooks that are accession 67x1.1-.2 include sketches and travel notes from a trip (or trips) taken by Whitefield through Illinois and up the Mississippi River. The pages are filled with pencil drawings of towns through which he passed, as well as short notations and observations about the places he saw. The 7 9/16 x 9 1/16 inch pages have been folded and hand sewn. They also include notes about the Missouri River, and some views of Cairo, Illinois, at the confluence of the Ohio and Mississippi Rivers.

Accession 78x316.1-.221 consists of a range of Whitefield's material, created between 1842 and 1892. It includes floral prints; sketchbooks and diaries of several trips; watercolors of landscapes; lithographs made for commercial uses and for published illustrations; pencil sketches, many of which are rough, of city scenes; pen and ink sketches; drawings of houses; photolithographs of places in New England (ca.1873-1876); and notebooks and newspaper clippings.

This collection contains a city view of Ottawa, Canada, published by Charles Magnus. Although Whitefield’s name does not appear on the print, a penciled note indicates that it was based on a drawing executed by him. Magnus also published a view of Chaudiere Falls, which Whitefield had also visited and sketched (however, the sketches in this collection are not similar to what Magnus published).

This collection is made up of several different accessions of Whitefield material, and they are filed by size. Within each box (or map case drawer), the items are in accession number order. A list of the items from accession 78x316 in numerical order is available only at this repository. An index to the identified sketches in accession 78x316 is appended to this finding aid.

Additional Whitefield papers are held by the Boston Public Library and Historic New England (formerly Society for the Preservation of New England Antiquities).

Four diaries of Edwin Whitefield. One (1855-1856) documents his trips between New York and Canada, to Lake Superior, on the Mississippi River between St. Paul and Galena (Ill.), and to Chicago and Milwaukee, with descriptions of cities and natural features, notes about his sketches and subscriptions to his paintings, and subsequent (1863?) information about his life in Kandiyohi County. Three diaries (1858-1860) kept while he lived at Kandota (Todd County, Minn.) provide data on weather, his sketches and articles, trips, the Kandota townsite, personal expenses, his land claim, lawsuits, and his St. Paul art class.

MISSING ITEMS

Acc. 78x316.50-51 were not located in February 2004; the old description simply said “two combination views,” with no other information.

Mic. 2948 Whitefield letters, diaries, and papers at the Minnesota Historical Society.

Its description of the collection:

Letters, diaries, articles, and miscellany of Edwin Whitefield, a Minnesota artist and townsite promoter, and of his son Wilfred, also an artist.

Included are Edwin’s articles (1856-1858) about Minnesota and present-day Kandiyohi County, accompanied by a few drawings and advertising items; an essay (ca. 1857) and diary (1859) by Wilfred describing life in Minnesota’s Sauk River Valley; and Wilfred’s diary, letters, and related materials documenting his service with Henry H. Sibley’s expedition (1863) against the Dakota Indians. The diary consists primarily of pencil sketches, with some explanatory text, depicting soldiers, camp life, battles, towns, and the landscape in Minnesota and Dakota Territory.

A more detailed description of these items is available on the microfilm reel. The Minnesota Historical Society also has a finding aid to the collection available through its library catalog, which is available through its web site.
