Cartwright headed west when news of the gold rush reached NY, and was in California by 1849, en route to Hawaii, where he spent the rest of his life. I would have to check, but I don't think he could have been in New York in 1850. Perhaps whoever signed that check was running his business at the time. Still an interesting Cartwright piece.

Barry- It looks to me like he printed the check in the 1840s. I'm guessing the late 1840s.

Agreed. The checks were printed while AJ was still in New York, but they were used by the business after he departed.

Barry- I see what you're saying. I was thinking that Cartwright & his brother only printed the check(s) for the bank. I was thinking it was not written from their account?? I guess I need to do some research to understand how checks were utilized in the mid-19th century. Also, thanks Leon. I really like the ancillary items too. It seems like they always lead me finding something that I never knew before. Jeremy
