Biographical Sketch

Lawrence A. Cabot was born on May 17th, 1919. He attended City College and served with the 2nd Armored Division in World War II. A Democrat, Cabot lived in Ardsley, New York. He was elected to the New York State Assembly in 1964 and represented the Westchester County Second District for one term. During his political career, he served on the Claims, Internal Affairs, Revision, and Villages committees. Cabot was also chairman of the Ardsley Democratic Committee and vice-chairman of the Greenburg Democratic Committee.

Scope and Content Information

The Lawrence A. Cabot Papers consist of both subject files and legislation related to Cabot's service in the New York State Assembly from 1964-1965. The subject files contain primarily correspondence although there are also newspaper clippings, press releases, and one map. The legislation includes bills that Cabot sponsored while in the Assembly and resolutions he was involved with. The legislation files frequently include supplemental materials such as correspondence and newspaper clippings.

Please note the archivist retained the original arrangment of the collection. Therefore there is a "resolutions" folder containing resolutions from local governments in Cabot's district in Series 1 as well as individual folders containing resolutions in Series 2. The folder in Series 1 simply contains the resolutions themselves while the files in Series 2 generally contain the resolutions as well as supplemental materials.

The collection is organized into the following series:

Series 1 - Subject Files, 1964-1965 Series 2 - Legislation, 1964-1965

Series 1 is arranged alphabetically by subject while Series 2 is arranged chronologically, first by bill number and then by resolution number.
