There are 15 boxes in the Virginia Moscrip Papers: 2 boxes of correspondence dating from 1818 through 1962, 3 boxes of Charles H. Moscrip ephemera reflecting his theological and theatrical interests as well as his time spent at the University of Rochester; 2 boxes of Virginia Moscrip ephemera from childhood through her years as a student and educator; 2 boxes of miscellaneous family ephemera; and 4 boxes of photo albums. Much of the family ephemera and correspondence are associated with Minerva (Lamareau) DeLany (1837-1919) and her husband, Amos N. DeLany (1832-1895), Virginia Moscrip's maternal grandparents, who had lived in Clyde, New York, since 1852. The DeLany's are buried in Mount Hope Cemetery in Rochester, New York, along with their grandchildren, Lydia Bell Moscrip, Minerva L. Moscrip, and Charles B. Moscrip and his wife, Elsie (1890-1912). The personal papers of Virginia Moscrip's mother, Lydia Bell DeLany Moscrip, are held at Smith College, Northampton, Massachusetts. Also included are Liberty Loan flyers and advertisements, membership cards and a service flag, food rationting campaign items and recipes, knitting patterns, two undated clippings, including an editorial by Anna Howard Shaw; and a commemorative booklet celebrating Susan B. Anthony's eightieth birthday.

The Long Island Historical Society initiated the Puerto Rican Oral History Project in 1973. Using funding from the New York State Council on the Arts, over seventy-five interviews were conducted documenting the experiences of Brooklyn residents who arrived from Puerto Rico between 1917 and 1940. This collection includes recordings and transcripts of interviews conducted primarily between 1973 and 1975. Also included are newspaper clippings, brochures, booklets about Brooklyn’s Puerto Rican community, and administrative information on how the project was developed, carried out, and evaluated.

Types of records include: project files.
