Subseries 2. Financial Material, 1900-1926

Scope and Content Notes:

Included in the Financial Material Subseries are tax returns for the years 1909 to 1926. These records primarily consist of the tax returns with little or no additional information regarding the company’s financial matters. Tax returns are arranged in chronological order. Additional materials contained within this subseries include annual net income for manufacturing corporations, federal capital stock, accounts payable receipts, and corresponding outgoing checks. The accounts payable and outgoing check receipts were used in routine daily business activities, such as employee salaries, purchase of materials, and dividend payments. Receipt #92 stands out because it provides a complete list of employees, position, days worked, hours, daily salary, and total for April 1901. Receipts are arranged numerically following the Shaw Coal Company’s original numbering system.

Cancelled checks from the Shaw Coal Company are also found within this subseries. The majority of the checks correspond to an accounts payable receipt. However, the checks are intermittent for the period between 1918 and 1925. Additional financial materials can be found in the Subseries 5. Record Books which contains bound volumes of stock certificates, financial ledgers, and journals. Material in this subseries dates from 1900 to 1926.
