Beatrice Nebraska business records
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.
