The six sketchbooks are predominantly travel sketches of British and Continental scenes. Sketches are in graphite, some with color wash and some with charcoal tones. All sketches have been made on separate sheets of paper of varying sizes, later mounted for binding. While some of the scenes are labeled and dated, very few are signed. Items 1 and 2 appear to contain a mix of drawings by Anna Margaret Carr and Sarah Grace Carr (Lushington), while the remainder of the sketchbooks appear to be by Anna alone, presumably made during several of her Grand Tours of the continent. Item 1, bound, consists of sketches of places throughout Europe, dated from 1811 to 1859. Sketches in item 2, dated 1812 to 1863, are unbound and depict predominantly British locations, as well as views of Mauritius, Madeira, and St. Helena, dated 1833 and 1837. The latter sketches were almost certainly made by Anna Margaret Carr as she accompanied her brother to a diplomatic position in Ceylon, from 1833 to 1837. Items 3 and 4, two bound volumes, contain sketches of France, Switzerland, and Italy, in August and September of 1824. Locations featured include Montreuil, the Jura, Geneva, Lausanne, and Bex (in item 3), and Como, Genoa, the Mediterranean coast of Italy, La Spezia, Livorno, Pisa, and Florence (in item 4). Item 5 is a sketchbook with the binder's title "Foreign sketches, 1827", containing drawings of France and Italy, especially the French Alps and Pisa. Item 6 is a sketchbook with the binder's title "Foreign sketches, 1828", containing sketches of Pisa and the surrounding countryside.

Of the ten items comprising the collection, six of the items relate to John C. Carr. Four are signed promissory notes, apparently representing installment payments, for land sold by order of the Circuit Court of Loudoun County in the case of Carr vs. Carr. This is probably the case of Elizabeth Carr (wife of Samuel, born ca. 1817) and others versus Samuel Carr's administrators. The case involves land which had been conveyed in trust to John Alexander to secure a debt allegedly owed by Samuel Carr. The land was advertised for sale and apparently was sold since the notes indicate John C. Carr bought some of this land. Two documents are from Samuel Carr's estate: a receipt in payment of an insurance premium, and a tax bill, indicating his estate still owned slightly over 230 acres in 1883. Two of the papers are land leases.
