  2. The George Washington Financial Papers

The Financial Papers of George Washington is a digital archive dedicated to the business and financial records of George Washington, the first President of the United States. Hosted by the Washington Papers Project, the archive includes receipts, bills, invoices, journals, and other documents that detail Washington’s personal and public financial dealings.

These documents provide a detailed picture of Washington’s economic activities, including his management of Mount Vernon, his investments, and his role in the early financial system of the United States. The project offers scholars and researchers valuable primary sources for studying the economic history of the early republic and the personal financial practices of one of the nation’s founding figures.
