You might check out the early Estes technical reports.
The multi-staging one is reprinted here:

Clustering report from 1963:

The early Estes, Coaster, and Centuri catalogs will help you determine the "first kit" milestones. The first multi-stage kit was likely the Apogee (no "II"). Not sure if Estes or Centuri introduced the first three-stager.
