These two columns of names with tallies appear on the outside back cover of D/JQA/I. The first column was a crude index for the Diary booklet, indicating the number of references JQA made to the individual listed. See note 1 for entry of 13 Nov. (above). In several instances JQA used superscript numbers to record the sums of his individual tallies in this column, but these have been omitted.
JQA to AA, 20
Nov. (
Adams Family
Correspondence,
3:238–239).
Neither letter has been found.
JQA to TBA, 12 Dec. (same, 3:248).
Letter not found. Henry Warren, son of James and Mercy (Otis) Warren (Mrs. Washington A.
Roebling, Richard Warren of the Mayflower, Boston, 1901, p.
27–28).
Letter not found. Joshua Green Jr., son of Joshua and Hannah (Storer) Green; Mrs. Green
was an intimate friend and correspondent of AA (Samuel Abbott Green, An Account of Percival and Ellen Green and of Some of Their
Descendants, Groton, Mass., 1876, p. 23–24).
Since many of JQA's letters from Europe to his sister and cousins were
primarily copied passages from his Diary entries, JQA here may be referring to
a copy of his “Journal from America to France,” covering the period 12–20 Nov., which
apparently came into William Cranch's hands and was endorsed by him (MHi:Jacob Norton Papers).
Richard Warren of the Mayflower, p. 27–28).
