Scope and Contents

The Domestic and Community Life series documents family, love, marriage, home, and socialorganizations. It does not include Health or Business items, which are included in separate series. Certainissues, such as women's rights, are in Series 2: Politics and Political Movements.

The material dates from the early 1800s (probably earlier) to the 1980s. Most pre-1840 imprints are notdated. Estimates have been made for the dates of many early imprints by checking publisher and addressof the publisher in the "Index of Publishers, Engravers and Printers" in Volume III of Richard Wolfe'sSecular Music in America 1801-1825: A Bibliography and in Oscar Sonneck's A Bibliography of EarlySecular American Music. Several sheets that appear to be very old could not be dated by this method.

This series has 11 subseries:

Subseries 9.1: Adult Family Members, includes songs and instrumental compositions about Mother,Motherhood, Mother's Day, Mother-in-law, Father, Grandmother, Grandfather, and Great Grandfather,Aunts, Uncles, Sisters, Brothers, and Cousins. Close to 65% of this subseries is about Mothers.

Subseries 9.2: Children, includes songs and instrumental compositions about Babies and Children,including kidnapped, lost, homeless, orphan, and poor children. This subseries also includes Lullabiesand "Sandman" music. Researchers looking for mother/child relationship music will want to look at both ofthese first two subseries. Songs about children dying are in Subseries 9.9.

Subseries 9.3: Dolls, Stories, and Toys, includes music about Cinderella, Jack and Jill, Little Red RidingHood, Rip Van Winkle, Robinson Crusoe, and other storybook characters, and Dolls, Teddy Bears,Puppets, Marionettes, and Manikins.

Subseries 9.4: Songs about and Images of Men and Women, focuses on the cover image more thanthe lyrics. Note the Christy and Manning covers in Folder H. There are a great many more sheets aboutwomen than men, with women having close to 90% of the attention. Songs and instrumental compositions
