Zephir May 2014 Revised January 2017 Billings Family Archives, Acc. 2004.003 Finding Aid January 1, 2017 Biographical History: The Billings Family Archives were created by Frederick and Julia Billings and successive generations of the Billings family. The collection of manuscripts, photographs, and architectural drawings provide a rich source of information about the family's personal and business interests, and their domestic, social, and philanthropic activities. Frederick Billings (1823-1890), born in Royalton, Vermont, moved to Woodstock with his family in 1835. He was the fourth of Oel and Sophia Billings' nine children. He attended the University of Vermont, studied law, and would eventually travel to California during the gold rush where he made his fortune as a lawyer, land developer and railroad tycoon. He became very wealthy, traveled widely, but always considered Woodstock his home. In 1862, Frederick met and married Julia Parmly (1835-1914). Julia, born and raised in New York City, was the daughter of prominent New York dentist, Dr. Eleazar Parmly and Anna Maria Valk Smith Parmly. Julia was educated at a series of private day academies in New York, and traveled extensively throughout her life. Frederick purchased their Woodstock home in 1869. Frederick and Julia Billings had seven children. They raised their family in Woodstock and after 1881, the family split their time between Woodstock and a townhouse on Madison Avenue in New York City. Their children were educated by governesses at home, attended private schools and universities, traveled widely, and enjoyed the typical social and cultural activities of upper class society.
