There is also a folder of loose clippings, and four photographs of the girls when they were young. The scrapbook includes mainly local and national newspaper clippings about the quads' birth, their parents, special occasions such as their birthdays, and performances that they gave. Obituaries for the parents and two of the quads (who passed away during the time the scrapbook was being created), personal correspondence, and some information about the girls' health statistics are also part of the book.
