This collection comprises the business records of the Vorontsov brothers, who ran forestry, mining and horse-breeding operations
in Manchuria and Mongolia. The records cover the period from the 1920s to the 1950s, when the Chinese government confiscated
their property. The records are supplemented by photographs of forestry and horse-breeding operations as well as of the brothers'
visits to oversee these.
Detailed processing and preservation microfilming for these materials were made possible by a generous grant from the National
Endowment for the Humanities and by matching funds from the Hoover Institution and Museum of Russian Culture. The grant also
provides depositing a microfilm copy in the Hoover Institution Archives. The original materials remain in the Museum of Russian
Culture, San Francisco as its property. A transfer table indicating corresponding box and reel numbers is available at the
Hoover Institution Archives.
The Hoover Institution assumes all responsibility for notifying users that they must comply with the copyright law of the
