- The Dame Family Papers, 1830-2002, consist primarily of letters to the Rev. George Washington Dame (1812-1895) in Virginia, from his sisters Permela [also written as Permelia] C. and Harriet W. Dame and from his niece, Mary Estes all of Dover and Rochester, NH. The letters provide updates on the family, often noting deaths of family members and local acquantinces.
