Abstract:
The collection consists primarily of correspondence received by Frank Maris and Anna Pickering Maris.

Frank was a member of Lansdowne Monthly Meeting and owned a crane company in Philadelphia, Maris Bros. Cranes, where cranes were designed and built. Both the Maris and Pickering families trace their roots in the Philadelphia area back to the 17th century.

The Maris-Pickering Family Papers were donated to Friends Historical Library of Swarthmore College in 2020 by Rebecca Maris Warren Searl.
