The archival guide herewith presented is intended to meet the requirements of day-to-day administration by the Officials of the county, and also the needs of lawyers, business men, and other citizens who require facts from the public records for the proper con duct of their affairs. The volume is so designed that it can be used by the historian in his research in unprinted sources in the same way he uses the library card catalog for printed sources.
