Prindle was commissioned by Mr. William Sperry Beinecke to research the ancestry of his wife, Elizabeth Barrett Gillespie, and himself, and to compile the records in book form. Soon after Mr. Prindle's research began, it became apparent that the ancestry of Mrs. Beinecke alone would fill a large book. It was therefore decided to compile a book on Mr. Beinecke's ancestry, another on Mrs. Beinecke's ancestry, with a third book covering her cousins. The collection consists of papers gathered by Paul W. Prindle for the purpose of compiling the genealogical books for Mr. and Mrs. Beinecke. Included is correspondence, 1969 - 1976, between Beinecke-Gillespie family members and Prindle who was trying to obtain names, addresses and biographical data; also correspondence with other professional genealogists. There are officially certified copies of vital and other records, 1669 - 1935; abstracts and excerpts from various records of genealogical value; maps, photographs and newspaper clippings, in addition to all of Prindle's notes. Included also is a diary, 1865, of Jacob Austin Sperry which was printed verbatim in the volume Ancestry of William Sperry Beinecke.
