Biography/History
The Perris Valley Museum Historical Archives Historically Significant Books,
Booklets and Magazines Collection, 1833-1957 is comprised of books, booklets
and magazines donated by various individuals since 1983 to the Perris Valley
Museum and Historical Association.
As most of the provenance of the original donors and the full scope of their
collections was lost, the amalgam of the books was grouped as whole. It is
known that a number of the books came from the Bernasconi and Reynolds
families.
The Bernasconi family was a pioneer family in Perris that opened the Southern
Hotel in 1886. The Reynolds family, another pioneer family, married into the
Bernasconi family.
Scope and Content
A number of the books (noted in the Collection List) did belong to the Bernasconi and Reynolds family; however, as most of the provenance of a large number of the books was lost, it is difficult to determine the exact significance of the volumes to their individual collections.
As such, an artificial but intuitive arrangement was established to make the collection accessible to researchers.
Organization and Arrangement
The following topical arrangement structure has been developed for the collection. It is set up alphabetically, with each section then arranged numerically by ObjectID #.
