Series Description

SERIES ONE: FINANCE AND ACCOUNTING, 1861-1885

Physical Description: 7 volumes + 368 boxes

Scope and Content Note

This should be considered a preliminary guide to the collection only. Much of the collection is still unprocessed. The processed material has been organized into the following series:

Early Central Pacific Railroad financial transactions were not divided by department. This series includes company-wide transactions. Includes Cash Books (1861-1873), Invoices (1863-1885) and Vouchers (1861-1882).

Cash Books, 1861-1873

Physical Description: 3 volumes

Scope and Content Note

They provide a daily record of Central Pacific Railroad cash transactions.

Invoices, 1863-1885

Physical Description: 4 volumes

Scope and Content Note

The Central Pacific Railroad Record of Invoices covers purchases made for the company in New York by Collis P. Huntington for a period of over twenty years. Purchases include locomotives (including Central Pacific Railroad locomotive No. 1, "Gov. Stanford," and locomotive No. 3, "C. P. Huntington"), rolling stock, equipment components, construction equipment and supplies, and general stores.

The handwritten entries are arranged by month and contain the date purchased, name of the supplier, description of the material purchased, cost, shipping charges, and names and sailing dates of the vessels on which the merchandise was shipped to California. In later volumes transportation by rail is indicated.

Volumes 1, 2, and 3 also have extensive handwritten notes as well as newspaper clippings from Sacramento and other newspapers of the time affixed to the inside of the boards and to the end papers. In addition Volume 2 has political handbills affixed to the end papers.

Vouchers, 1861-1906

Physical Description: 368+ boxes

Scope and Content Note

The Central Pacific Railroad vouchers comprise a key element in the California State Railroad Museum's Southern Pacific Railroad Company Records. They are among the earliest items in the collection. Some date prior to the incorporation of the Central Pacific. The early vouchers contain such information as payrolls for teams surveying the route across the Sierra Nevada, purchases of equipment for the surveys, and purchases of newspaper advertisements for the incorporation of the Central Pacific and for the initiation of construction. Later vouchers cover such items as the acquisition of equipment and supplies for building the railroad as well as for its early operation. Prominent individuals mentioned in the voucher collection include Theodore D. Judah, Leland Stanford, Charles Crocker, Mark Hopkins, Collis P. Huntington, and Alfred Hart.

The Central Pacific voucher collection is arranged by voucher number which is in rough chronological order. Each number series in parentheses equals one document box.

SERIES TWO: ENGINEERING, 1862-1863

Physical Description: 2 boxes

Scope and Content Note

This material has been divided into Invoices and Vouchers (1862-1863) and Payrolls (1862-1863).

Many of the payrolls bear the signatures of noted figures: Theodore Dehone Judah (1826-1863), George Henry Goddard (1817-1906, government surveyor and artist) and Samuel Skerry Montague.

SERIES THREE: LAND DEPARTMENT, 1870-1949

Physical Description: 12 volumes

Scope and Content Note

This material has been divided into: Day Books (1870-1883), Property Map Books [1910-1949], and Station Plan Book (ca. 1880).

Day Books, 1870-1883

Physical Description: 3 volumes

Scope and Content Note

The volumes cover sales by the Central Pacific Railroad of lands in California. They are arranged chronologically, and include entries for land purchase contracts, cancellations and deeds. Each entry notes the date of the transaction, contract numbers, the person(s) to whom the property was sold, terms of the sale, location of the property and amount received. Also included are right of way, mineral, or other reservations.

Property Map Books, [1910-1949]

Physical Description: 8 volumes

Scope and Content Note

The collection is composed of eight volumes of bound maps of lands within the confines of the Central Pacific and Southern Pacific Railroad land grants in California, Nevada and Utah. Legal descriptions of the properties are given on each page of maps, with each section of land depicted divided into sixteenths. The volumes cover both Central Pacific and Southern Pacific Railroads, with four volumes for each.

The maps provide information on the date property was certified to the railroads by the United States General Land Office, grant boundaries, lands in dispute, lands under contract, lands not selected by the railroads for the grant, and lands lost from the grant through sale, transfer or relinquishment to the federal government. For sales of property after 1906, the name of the purchaser is indicated on the maps. The maps also show mineral and timber lands, national forests, Indian and military reservations, irrigation districts, town limits, roads, railroads and station sites, and principal geographical features. Some volumes are stamped indicating their receipt by the Land Department in 1910, although there are many other subsequent holographic notations indicating use through 1949.

Station Plan Book, ca. 1880

Physical Description: 1 volume

Scope and Content Note

Bound volume of hand-drawn pen and ink station plans, for the Central Pacific's Salt Lake and Humboldt Division and a portion of the Truckee Division in Utah and Nevada.

SERIES FOUR: EMPLOYEE RECORDS, 1864-1866

Physical Description: 5 boxes

Scope and Content Note

This series consists of construction payroll sheets for the building of the Central Pacific Railroad. The payrolls are handwritten on printed forms and were issued by the railroad for "C[harles] Crocker, Contractor." The payrolls list the construction division for which the individual worked, rates of pay, and total pay received. The collection includes some payroll sheets for Chinese labor gangs, as well as payroll information for James Strobridge and other construction officials.

The payrolls are numbered consecutively for the period 1864-1865. A new consecutive numbering system seems to have been instituted in 1866, starting again with the number one. The payrolls are arranged by year and then by number:

SERIES FIVE: MISCELLANEOUS FORMS AND CORRESPONDENCE, 1869-1903

Physical Description: 2 boxes

Scope and Content Note

Included in this collection are miscellanous forms issued by the Central Pacific Railroad.

This sampling represents but a minuscule portion of those issued or received by the Central Pacific. The forms have been arranged into two categories (blank and completed) and then by number or issuing department.
