- Summary
- Dutilh & Wachsmuth, a mercantile firm in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, was established by Etienne (Stephen) Dutilh (1751-1810) under the name of E. Dutilh & Co., doing business shortly after his arrival in Philadelphia in 1783. The collection of Dutilh & Wachsmuth letters and accounts, 1783-1806, consists of letters and loose accounts received from European merchants, and an account book of an unidentified Baltimore shipping merchant handling consignments from Haiti for Dutilh & Wachsmuth. Items, in French, English and Dutch, document the firm's trade in cloth, lace, coffee, sugar and other commodities.
