Collection Overview
William F. Sudds (1843-1920) was born in England but grew up in Gouverneur, N.Y. In his youth, Sudds taught himself to play several instruments, as his family was not able to afford lessons for him. He attended Boston Conservatory and composed musical scores and piano instruction pieces published by Oliver Ditson & Co. and other publishers. Sudds also ran a successful music shop in Gouverneur. The family had a summer home in Chippewa Bay, N.Y.
The albums in this collection were transferred from the Brush Art Gallery to the University Archives in 1998.
