The records were compiled in 1985 by Kathern Allemong and Jessie Hunter for a Daughters of the American Revolution project. In 2015, the records were re-organized for ease of research by Nancy Edwards and Nancy Largent. The collection was originally organized in a three-ring binder; it has been re-arranged into folders with each item numbered to retain original order.
