Local Note
The collection consists of a variety of Saratoga Springs-related materials collected by Anita Pohndorff Yates (1914-1991). Mrs. Yates developed the collection from papers and memorabilia that she inherited from her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Federico G. Pohndorff. Many of the items originally came from the Robert Milligan family, who were friends and neighbors of the Pohndorffs.
