Summary: Documents concerning the estate of John A. Roebling II and Clarence E. Case, executor. Apart from Case's notes, the series consists of one long memorandum with attached cover letter addressed to Helen Price Roebling, from Clarence E. Case, dated October 4, 1955. The memorandum concerns documents located by Helen Price Roebling belonging to her deceased husband, John A. Roebling II. The list of items located is accompanied by detailed descriptions of the documents located including Case's recommendations for their disposition.

Many of the items listed in the memorandum are present in the personal papers of Washington A. Roebling included elsewhere in this collection.

Among the items discussed are: "The Original Manuscript of the Life of John A. Roebling, written by his oldest son, Washington A. Roebling," a biography of John A. Roebling; reminiscences of the life and war experiences of Washington A. Roebling; and "A Short History of Saxonburg, Butler County, Pa." which Washington A. Roebling wrote at the request of Thomas H. Greer of the Butler County Historical Society (circa 1924).
