Scope and Contents
These papers document in a very thorough way Ahlstrom's professional career, his writings, lectures, courses taught at Yale, his extensive participation in scholarly and church-related organizations. Conditions at Yale and in New Haven during the turbulent years of the late 1960s and early 1970s are well documented. A sampling of material has been preserved to document Ahlstrom's renowned personality, his sense of humor, curiosity, and wide-ranginginterests.
A small section of family correspondence in Series I provides a view into Ahlstrom's Minnesota connections and warm family relationships. General correspondence dating from 1946 to 1979 includes letters to and from friends, colleagues, editors, publishers, and church representatives. Correspondents include Yale colleagues James Gustafson, Hans Frei, and Julian Hartt, as well as Arthur Schlesinger, Jr., Paul Ramsey, Samuel H. Miller, Robert Handy, Bruce Kuklick, and others. Substantive letters deal not only with academic and professional affairs, but also document Ahlstrom's opinions on a wide range of issues, his friendships, and family life. Revealing of strongly held convictions are letters such as one written to J.B. Buckley, manager of the Yellow Cab Company in New Haven, which protests against the unjust treatment of a poor black family by a cabdriver in a scene witnessed by Ahlstrom. The section of correspondence with students provides insight into Ahlstrom's interaction with his students. Correspondence related to Ahlstrom's writings, lecture appearances, and other specific events or activities can also be found in Series II, III and VI.
Series II, Committees and Projects, contains correspondence and other material related to the many institutions, organizations, committees, and projects with which Ahlstrom was involved. Ahlstrom's career-long interests and involvement in Lutheranism, higher education, and American religious history are documented, as well as his participation in a variety of short-term, specific projects.
The Writings of Series III constitute the bulk of this collection. Articles and unpublished papers, contributions to booklength works, letters to editors, book reviews by Ahlstrom and documentation related to his booklength works are included. Sermons and lectures delivered by Ahlstrom are filed with supporting documentation in Series VI.
Series IV, Course-related Material, includes primarily lecture notes, syllabi, exams, and reading lists. These materials date from 1946 to 1984. Material from his popular interdepartmental American Church History Survey course includes more than 2 1/2 boxes of lecture notes of one word per page. His deteriorating health prevented him from reading long pages of lecture notes. Moreover, his delivery was personal and conversational, and the system of one-word-per-page best served his lecturing style.
Ahlstrom was an inveterate collector of newspaper clippings, cartoons, concert programs, articles, offprints, and anything else that happened to touch upon one of his varied interests. The Collected Material of Series V represents a sampling of the mass of such materials present in Ahlstrom's offices at the time of his death. The largest section of material retained in this Series, collected material related to the fields of history, religion, and education, includes primarily offprints and articles sent to Ahlstrom by his colleagues, friends, and former students.
Series VI, Biographical Documentation, traces Ahlstrom's activities other than his long-term committee and project involvements and his regular teaching commitments at Yale. The series primarily documents one-time events such as conferences, lectures, seminars, awards, etc. Included are many holograph and typescript texts for Ahlstrom's various guest lecture appearances, sermons, and chapel talks dating from his graduation from Gustavus Adolphus until his death in 1984. Ahlstrom was much in demand as a lecturer, and his speaking engagements took him all over the country and as far as Japan and Australia. Other events that highlight his extra-curricular life include his involvement with nineteen other Lutheran scholars in a statement supporting John F. Kennedy's 1960 presidential election and a Religion in America television show in 1974. "In Memory of Ahlstrom," by George Lindbeck and a journal tribute are also included. The series ends with miscellaneous material including Ahlstrom's own bibliographies and curriculum vitae.

Nancy Ethel Ahlstrom
April 18, 1930 - August 12, 2021
Nancy Ethel Ahlstrom (née Alexander) (April 18, 1930 - August 12, 2021)
Nancy, a loving wife, dedicated mother and grandmother, and long-time member of the Hamden and New Haven community, passed on August 12, 2021, surrounded by family in her home on Armory Street in Hamden, Connecticut.
Born in Indianapolis to Mary Jane Burton and Robert Cloyd Alexander, Nancy grew up in Indiana, Tennessee, Kansas, and Massachusetts before graduating from Manhasset High School in Long Island. She attended Bryn Mawr College where she studied archaeology and was awarded a post-graduate fellowship at the American School of Classical Studies in Athens. On her way to Greece she fortuitously stopped in Paris. It was there, outside of her hotel, that she noticed a young Sydney Ahlstrom washing his Renault 4CV. They struck up a conversation, shared a meal that evening at the hotel restaurant, and exchanged a torrent of letters as their relationship took shape long distance. Their love for each other quickly filled their lives and they were married in Manhasset, Long Island in 1953 at Christ Episcopal Church where her father was the rector.
Nancy and Sydney settled in New Haven where Sydney was a professor of American and Religious History at Yale and Nancy worked as an editor for the Journal of Economic Geology. Together they raised four children, all of whom graduated from Hamden High School. Traveling in the family VW van, they explored Europe, living for a year each in Paris in 1964 and Munich in 1970 while Sydney was on sabbatical.
Nancy dedicated herself to her community. She helped lead the Yale University Women’s Organization (YUWO), audited readings for Recording for the Blind, presented her research at the North End Club, volunteered with Meals on Wheels, fostered friendships through her bridge group, nurtured life-long connections with Branford College’s Fellowship, and developed her green thumb with her Garden Club. She was an avid hostess and a talented cook, having studied with Julia Childs in Paris at L’École des Trois Gourmandes in 1964.
The daughter of an Espicopalian minister, Nancy’s faith animated her life. She and her family were members of Trinity Church on the Green for more than 60 years. She attended services regularly into old age, proudly parking in front and climbing the church’s noble steps rather than use the elevator. She was particularly appreciative of Minister Luk De Volder’s sermons.
Nancy’s husband Sydney died in 1984 at the age of 64 after a decade-long cognitive and physical decline, but Nancy did not retreat from the world. She continued to be an adventurous traveller and remained committed to her community. She remarried with Paul Ruthman in 1999, and together they embraced being grandparents, hosting her grandchildren for summer camps at the Eli Whitney Museum just down the street.
Nancy loved nothing more than gathering with her family, whether it be for Christmas dinner or a week on Cape Cod. Her ability to bring people together will be deeply missed.
Nancy was tough, independent, smart, resilient, and a little bit stubborn. Her legacy is her four children, Joseph Alexander “Sandy” (Cathy Quense), Promise Ann (James Gold), Constance Burton “Connie” (Andrew Weinstein), and Sydney Eckman “Syd” (Keely), as well as eight grandchildren, Maya, Aaron, Jonah, Oliver, Ian, Elana, James, and Syd III. All are better having known her, smarter having learned from her, and wiser having aged with her. She lived her life fully and died peacefully, her spirit finally at rest.
Please join the family and friends for the interment at Grove Street Cemetery on October 2, 2021 at 11:00am. Donations to Trinity Church to support their social programs and charitable outreach are both welcomed.
