Hi all. As many of your know, I am currently pursuing my MA in archival
management. With one of my classes this semester, we are required to actually
work in an archival depository and create a finding aid for a collection. I
was assigned to work in the Special Collections dept. of my university's
library (NC State U). I met with the woman in charge just now and the
collection she assigned me to is of Roy Samuel Ingle Papers. She gave me a
little background on Roy Ingle and it turns out this collection includes mostly
letters from 1939-1946 to his fiancee, and later wife, Lois Blanche Eller!!! I
won't be able to transcribe all the letters, etc. But if I do find anything of
interest to genealogy, I will do my best to post to the list. I just find it
so ironic that the collection I'm going to be working on is about an Eller
since it was my interest and practice of genealogy that got me interested in
working in an archive in the first place.
