Locations of Helen Hunt Jackson letters
in libraries and publications
List created by Kate Phillips, author of Helen Hunt Jackson: A Literary Life (University of California, 2003).
Note from KP: As of 2002, I have located over 1,300 letters written by Jackson to the recipients indicated. This list is only a draft. I have not filled in some known dates to match the revised citations in my book; also, in this list only, I have supplied some dates without placing them in brackets. In the few instances in which I have examined letters only in transcript, rather than in the original, I have indicated that fact. The total number of letters in each collection appears in brackets.
