Greetings:
I am compiling information for a book entitled: "Bibliography of Civil
War Manuscripts in the state of Georgia." This book will list and briefly
describe all Civil War manuscript collections held by organizations in
this state. Due to the large number of such organizations, I cannot visit
them all. I need a couple of volunteers to help me with Clarke County.
The task involves visiting several local libraries and museums to check
and see if they have any unpublished Civil War era letters or diaries.
(I have already completed my research at UGA) After that a brief description
of the item is all I need. In most cases this entire process can be completed
in an hour or two. All volunteers will be credited for their work in the
foreword of the book. This work will be of great importance to historians
and genealogist all across the nation. If you would like to help me, please
contact me.
