Sometime in the eighteenth century, Marie, sister of Jacobus Perier of Batavia, East Indies, married Pierre Dutilh, son of Abel. In the Burton Historical Collection of the Detroit Public Library are 12,000 to 15,000 items of Dutilh business correspondence, written in French, Spanish, Hollandish, German, and English during the years 1755-1874, the bulk being from 1755-1803. These are arranged chronologically, but have not been indexed.
