Research files, 1941/1991
- Scope and content:
-
The series contains typed and handwritten genealogical research files organized primarily according to family. Documents include typed transcripts of research documented in the notebooks. As a result, the content across series may overlap or be duplicative. Correspondence to Yankey from family members, genealogists, and research contributors requests and/or provides details on specific families. The 1988 Bergton-Criders Community Calendar features a photograph of the K-5 students at Bergton Elementary School with a twelve-month calendar documenting birthdays and anniversaries of local community members. An envelope of photographic negatives is filed with Assorted Notes.
