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.
