Correspondence, Personal and Business
The Correspondence series is a rich source of family information and includes some business interactions. A majority of the material in the Correspondence series is written as person letters between the three Tuomy siblings or addressed to their mother, Julia. A large amount of writing occurred at the time that Cornelius W. (Bill) Tuomy was in the Army in 1918. Kathryn G. Tuomy also exchanged a large amount of correspondence in 1929-1931, when she was very active in the local and national Federation of Business and Professional Women's Clubs. Family friends, including Frank McIntyre (especially 1940-1941), a newspaper man and entertainer, and in-laws on the Kearney side are also contributors to the conversations carried on in the Correspondence series. Interspersed with the personal correspondence are some letters (especially 1932-1933) on rental properties and real estate concerns of the Tuomy and Tuomy real estate office.
