Arrangement
Arrangement
The files are arranged alphabetically by last name. In addition to specifically named
files, there are general alphabetical files (e.g., "AA-AB") and files for multiple
individuals with the same last name (e.g., "Jones"). The general alphabetical files
generally precede the specifically named files in each alphabetical range. If a
listing for a specific individual is not found in the container list, it is possible
that there are relevant materials in the appropriate general alphabetical file.
