Index & Content Descriptions written by Ruth Hoggatt. Updates and corrections to content listings made periodically by the JCHS Research Library
Please note that some files have contents listed in detail while most only have the family name indexed. Upon request we will provide a description of the contents of any file listed, and will then post the content description on this index page.
There are many more names within the individual files which are not indexed here. Some title names are of the person submitting the information, not the family names in the file.
Individual genealogy files contain various contents. Some files are correspondence between Fauna and family genealogists, other files contain newspaper articles on individuals and / or families; and still other files are quite extensive -as are the Ryker and Lee files.
