    3. Hello All, I am hoping someone familiar with libraries on the East Coast can help me with this issue. I am attempting to determine if/where the manuscripts of Consuelo Furman have been deposited. She apparently was a professional genealogist from New York, b. 1902, d. 1988 in Flushing, Queens. She co-authored some books with her father, Robert Furman, one being," Quaker Bibliography for the Genealogist" in 1938. Two books by Robert and Consuelo are on file at the College of William and Mary. Consuelo Furman has something in Box 4 of the AFSC Collection at Swarthmore Library. She also authored a document entitled "Descendents of Samuel Taylor, "Quaker" of Burlington Co. NJ, in 1959. Consuelo Furman, as far as I can tell, never married or had any children. She died in 1988 in Flushing. Is there a protocol for taking care of records of genealogists? In the mid 1930's, she was commissioned by Charles Louis La Boiteaux (Laboyteaux) of Cincinnati Ohio to do the genealogy of this family. I have a portion of the work she completed for the Laboyteaux family and am interested in finding the entire genealogy. She seems to have done some amount of work on the Burlington Co. NJ area. Does anyone know if a particular library is a repository of her works? Thank you for any suggestions. Beth Zaring Wellston, Ohio
