The collection includes materials such as biographical sketches; family trees; timelines; photographs; bound books; and photocopies and printouts of pertinent documents like census records, obituaries and newspaper articles, book excerpts, church records, letters, and text from relevant websites. No original artifacts (only photocopies/prints) appear in the collection.
