children's church music - German and English (printed matter)

The papers are divided into six categories: 1) Personal - correspondence, notebooks, and presentations; 2) Educational - Bethel and MBS; 3) Subject Files; 4) MCC; 5) General Conference; and 6) Prairie View. His correspondence is extremely limited, and most of the personal papers consist of notes and drafts for various papers, presentations, and sermons. Course materials from Bethel are sparse, but very extensive notes and papers are in the collection from MBS, where it is interesting to note that with the exception of a couple courses with Donovan Smucker and S. F. Pannabecker, he took almost entirely courses with professors from MBS’s partner institution, Bethany (Brethren) Seminary.

There are a few letters related to his work with MCC and GCMC, but most of these materials consist of reports, papers and proceedings from the many conferences held in the 1950s and 1960s. A few of these are annotated. Files from his work with these institutions, as is also the case with Prairie View, likely remained almost entirely with his employers. Even the CPS and MCC files from his work in the 1940s are limited, but they contain a few folders of original and personal materials of more interest and perhaps uniqueness.

Consists entirely of his papers from his term on the Bethel College board of directors.

Photos, correspondence, clippings, miscellaneous documents related to his music career, diplomas, phonograph record, a few documents related to the Dunkelberger Music Library.

Handwritten music by Albert D. Schmutz (this may not belong here but possibly just got stuck in when the papers were cleaned out of the Music Library in the Fine Arts Center in 1993). The 45rpm phonograph record in box 1 may also not belong to Dunkelberger but just come from the Music Library.

The collection contains personal materials from all three creators, including school transcripts and diplomas, school papers, baptismal certificates and other documentation of their early family life. However, the most extensive personal materials are the writings of Helen and Amelia and the correspondence of Amelia and her family.

The other major category of materials in the collection is family history. This includes several generations of correspondence of Amelia’s family, especially of her many relatives in Germany who wrote to Amelia’s mother Elizabeth Ellenberger, her Aunt Selma Ellenberger, and to Amelia herself, covering a period of over a century. The family history materials, in addition to these primary source documents, includes extensive genealogical research materials. Published genealogies, primarily collected by Adam, relate to many branches of his ancestors, especially on his maternal, Becker, side. He and Amelia both compiled numerous family charts and histories.
