Scope & Content: File pertains to 14 letters written by Catharine Robb Whyte to her mother, Edith Morse Robb from November 1931 to January 1932 and primarily includes Peter and Catharine's trip to various locations in Jamaica. Other topics include the trip to New York before setting sail and meeting the Moores, Georgia Engelhard, and visiting Carl Rungius' studio, people in Concord, details about the ship to Nassau, the hotels, the landscape, and meeting and staying with various people in Jamaica [including Elaine Strong, Edward Moseley, Mr. and Mrs. Kenneth Soloman, Sydney Farington, Dr. Graham Bruce, Sybil Burnside, Mr. and Mrs. Gus Ely, Olive Michener, and Fred Armbrister], and various Indigenous portraits of Peter's getting special notice [one from the American Foundation of the Arts].

Notes: Please note: language pertaining to Indigenous Peoples, people of colour, and those of the Jewish faith used throughout is outdated and offensive. Some items were stapled together and therefore scanned together as one document. Included is one typewritten transcript of a handwritten letter with content that has been edited. Letters are all handwritten and include some hotel and steamship letterheads. Some letters are marked with a small x in pencil, indicating where Jon Whyte made notes for use in his project "Catharine Robb Whyte, Peter Whyte: Commemorative Portfolio," originally published in 1981. Some letters also have numbers written in pencil crayon, believed to be from when originally processed.
