a| Collection consists of correspondence and explanatory notes appended to travel accounts. Topics include mission-related activities; economic conditions in eastern China; conditions under the Japanese occupation; Chinese and Japanese attitudes towards Americans; local social customs; and the effect of the United States Army on relief work and missionary activities. Travel accounts provide a contrast between the postwar conditions of areas untouched by the Sino-Japanese War and those rural areas under Japanese military control, descriptions of travel conditions, the survival of the Nationalist Government, conditions in Nanking during the Chinese Communist occupation, and the missionary community during the period prior to the direct Sino-American clash in Korea.

a| Jessie L. Wolcott (b. 1896), a native of Iowa, was a Methodist missionary in China. Wolcott's Central China Conference's activities were centered for the most part in Nanking (Jiangsu Province), where she served as principal of several Methodist schools in Nanking and as chief administrator of the South City Church. She later became secretary-treasurer of the Field Committee. She served in China from 1922 until 1951, with several breaks in her term due to the Sino-Japanese War and hostilities between Japan and the United States.
