William Frederick Rapp Papers

  • US BCMLA 00/MS.256
  • Sammlung
  • 1880-1940

The papers were in jumbled condition when they came to the MLA.  Some items were in a self-adhesive photo album dating possibly from the early 1970s.  These items were removed and the album discarded.  The papers are divided into several series: business papers, personal financial papers, community organizations, school papers, miscellaneous.  Unfortunately there is little correspondence.  The business papers are very fragmentary but could shed some light on Rapp’s business activities and on early Hesston businesses.  The personal financial papers are also fragmentary but offer a little information on the family’s business in Hesston and Tuleta.  The community organizations series relates to the beginnings of the Hesston Cemetery Association and the school that became Hesston College.  The school papers offer some insight into classroom life at Hesston College in its early years.  The miscellaneous series includes a Maple Grove Sunday School record book 1883-1886 and unidentified photos among its more interesting holdings.

Rapp, William Frederick, 1852-1923

Beatrice Nebraska business records

  • US BCMLA 00/MS.223
  • Sammlung
  • 1891-1904

Collection consists of 3 ledgers. One dates 1891-1898. Another dates 1898-1902. The third dates 1898-1904. The handwriting in the latter two changes in 1901; the books seem to contain the handwriting of only two persons.

The Beatrice history book God's Love in Action (1978) pp. 42 mentions a grocery goods store started by William J. Penner and later sold to John Wiebe. Possibly these have some connection with that business.
