Christmas Gift List |
![]() |
December, 1951 |
During each Christmas of his stay in the White House, President Truman's Personal Secretary, Miss Rose A. Conway (RAC), maintained a list of the presents received by the President. These lists allowed Miss Conway to track the many gifts the President received and enabled her to ensure that each one was properly acknowledged. Today, these documents, such as this transcription of the list prepared for the Christmas of 1951, provide a glimpse of the President's life in the White House around the holidays and of the various gifts people felt moved to send to him.
