Finding Aid, Jackson (1BR35) 1976-1978

Summary

The Veterans Curation Program utilizes the standard archival practice of unique naming of collections. The purpose of this practice is to avoid redundant and confusing collection names commonly found with archaeological investigations. Therefore, this collection is referred to as “Jackson Site (1BR35) 1976-1978.” This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folders, and the box labels. The extent of this collection is one (1) linear inch.

The document collection consists of two reports and several items that were removed from the associated artifact collection. Jackson Site (1BR35) 1976-1978 was received in good condition, especially the Report Records. The materials that were removed from the artifact boxes required cleaning and mending. There was no discernible organization to the document collection.

In addition to the materials removed from the artifact collection, there were two reports that were sent at a later date from the Columbus Museum. These were Recommendations and Preliminary Report on Investigations of Certain Portions of Old Creek Town Park, Eufaula, Alabama, which dated to 1976, and A Cultural Resource Appraisal of Certain Portions of Old Creek Town Park, Eufaula, Alabama. One oversized item was removed from the Report Records. An oversized map labeled as Figure 3 was removed from the 1976 report, humidified, and placed in oversized storage.
