Zone du contenu et de la structure

Portée et contenu

The collection represents aspects of the life of Fred Aldrich, though largely his service with the Genesee County Reemployment Committee for Selective Service of Michigan. Records reflect little of his personal life. Other work Aldrich participated in includes the Senior Council of the Michigan Children’s Aid Society, the Flint Defense Test Committee, the Genesee County War Board, and the Genesee County Historical and Museum Society. Records from these other organizations are scant and it is difficult to ascertain the extent of Aldrich’s involvement.

Other records in the collection unrelated to Aldrich include an abstract for land around Parkland No. 2 from 1819 to 1909. The abstract contains information pertaining to ownership and taxable value. Another record of interest are the specifications for a house owned by H.J. Bachtel.

Mode de classement

Accès physique

The collection is housed in a single full-size legal-length Hollinger box. Records are housed in several folders. Most of the folders are acid-free.

The condition of the records is fair. Many sheets of paper have yellowed at least slightly. Some have yellowed more. Specifications for the Bachtel residence are frail to the touch and had many tears along the edges of those papers prior to processing. Many sheets have crease marks from having been folded.
