BIOGRAPHICAL STATEMENT

 

Isaac Scholfield & Son had a carpet warehouse, importing and selling carpets, in Boston, Massachusetts, in the first half of the 19th century.  Isaac Scholfield is known to have been in business in Boston as early 1798, selling imported cloth in partnership with Joseph Scholfield (probably a brother).  After partnerships with various other men, Isaac Scholfield went solo in 1808.  In 1822, oldest son Arthur joined his father and the name of the firm was changed to Isaac Scholfield & Son.  The partnership was dissolved in 1841.

 

Isaac Scholfield (circa 1770-1849) was born in Saddleworth, Yorkshire, England.   He may have been that Isaac Scholfield who arrived in Boston in October 1794, although there was more than one man of that same name from the same area of Yorkshire who emigrated to the United States.  Isaac’s brothers Arthur (1756-1827) and John (1758-1820) also came to the U.S., arriving in Boston in 1793.  Arthur settled in Pittsfield, Mass., and John in Stonington, Conn.  Isaac Scholfield married Sarah Chickering (born circa 1780) and they had seven children: sons Arthur (1800-1883), Joseph (1808-1889), Isaac (1810-1866), and Charles (born 1813), and daughters Adaline (1803-1879), Ellen (1804-1887), and Ann (1807-1887).

 

 

SCOPE AND CONTENT

 

Collection includes a daybook, business letters, bills of exchange, bills of lading, invoices, and receipts, most of which pertain to the business of Isaac Scholfield or Isaac Scholfield & Son of Boston.  However, some personal receipts, for clothing, bread, beverages (milk, beer, and other alcoholic beverages), pew rent at King’s Chapel, medical bills, school tuition, travel, and some other goods and services are also found.  The medical bills are not detailed, although one bill lists a charge for revaccination. 

 

The daybook, covering 1816-1822, documents Isaac Scholfield’s refocusing of his business.  Originally, he concentrated on selling textile fabrics, but in 1820, he began to sell carpets, and eventually carpets, rugs, floor cloths, and mats came to be the goods in which Isaac Scholfield & Son dealt.  This is the chief record in this collection which documents the selling of goods.

 

The business receipts document the buying, but not the selling, of carpets.  The firm handled Brussels, Kidderminster, Venetian, Turkey, tufted, common, fine, superfine, Chinese patterned, plaid, striped, ingrain, matting, and other kinds of carpets and rugs, as well as carpet borders, bindings, and stair rods.  Painted, printed, and even moth-eaten floor cloths and sheep skins were also handled.  Sometimes, colors were mentioned in the orders.  Freight bills and invoices give evidence that the firm was getting goods shipped from New York and Philadelphia.  Although very few records of sales form part of this collection, bills for delivery charges give names of customers, and thus give a hint to the scope of local sales.  A few letters also discuss purchases.  Rent bills give the address of the business, 7 Cornhill.  Other receipts document the newspapers to which the family or the firm subscribed, the placement of advertisements for the firm, and the payment of postage.  On October 9, 1822, the firm was charged for placing an advertisement about the formation of the partnership.  In July 1841, the firm is advertising carpets at reduced prices and the availability of its chambers at 7 Cornhill.

 

Also of interest are letters from Andrews, Thompson & Co. (later Thompson & Co.) which mention carpet production done at their factory in Thompsonville, Connecticut.   Some carpeting was purchased from William Knight of Saxonville, an area of Framingham, Massachusetts, where the Saxonville Mills produced carpeting.  Some of the matting purchased by the Scholfields was noted as having come from Canton, China. 

 

           

ORGANIZATION

 

Many of the receipts and invoices came grouped in bundles, divided by year.  It was obvious, however, that all the bundles had been compromised over the years.  As the bundles were opened, it was discovered that years had been mixed in together, so all items were divided according to their proper year.  For ease of handling, tax receipts, pew rents, freight and wharfage bills, postage bills, and bills for newspaper advertisements were separated from the rest of the receipts. 

 

Most bundles were labeled receipts, and some were labeled invoices, although in fact, the same sorts of documents were often found in both bundles.  Items bundled together were kept together (except when a different year was mixed in; see note above), regardless of whether the item was a receipt or an invoice.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE COLLECTION

 

Location: 8 E 2

 

Note: all accession numbers begin with 16x63, unless otherwise indicated

 

Box 1: Daybook, 1816-1822; Letters, 1822-1837, all addressed to Isaac Scholfield or Scholfield & Son, unless otherwise stated.

 

Many of the letters have had a portion cut out, apparently bills for goods being shipped, or receipts for payments made.  (Some of these cut-out portions will be found in folders of receipts and invoices.)

 

 

Folder 1: Daybook of Isaac Scholfield, 1816-1822 (acc. 10x13)

 

Daybook kept from October 31, 1816 to December 30, 1822.  Customers were located not only in Boston but also in eastern Massachusetts (Gloucester, Haverill, and other places are mentioned), as well as southern Maine and New Hampshire.  Each entry includes the customer’s name, place of habitation, a list of items purchased (including color of textiles), and price, sometimes in both pounds and dollars.  Some of Scholfield’s customers, undoubtedly merchants, bought large quantities of goods.  He sold flushing, bombazet, flannel, cass and cassimere, baize, cloth, kersey, bocking, mixed cloth, habit cloth, and queens cloth.

 

In 1819, he branched out and began to sell calico, pins, buttons, gloves, stuff, Madapollam cotton, hose, vesting, and pelisse.   In 1820 is found the first mention of selling carpets, such as Kidderminster, Venetian, Brussels (body and border), straw, and Wilton.  The colors of these are never given.  By 1822, the trade is mostly in carpets, and textiles are less frequently sold.  But coach laces, tassels, and fringe were added to the store’s stock in 1822.  Scholfield also sold rugs and horse rugs, as well as blankets and rose blankets, the latter frequently sold in pairs.

 

Although Scholfield’s name is not found in this volume, comparison of this volume with a volume in the Isaac Scholfield & Co. papers held by the Colonial Williamsburg library proves that this accession 10x13 was kept by Scholfield.   This was formerly cataloged with the call number Doc. 1618, but is now part of Col. 960.  The first few pages of this volume have been removed.

 

A name index to this volume is found at the end of this finding aid.
