    1. [GAFLOYD] Northwest Georgia Document Preservation Project - Update
    2. Kitty Johnson
    3. Hello -- here is what I have found to date on this Project: Dear Ms. Johnson: The Project consisted of microfilming of documents from nine northwest Georgia counties: Bartow, Catoosa, Chattooga, Floyd, Gordon, Murray, Polk, Walker, and Whitfield. These documents covered the period 1819 - 1985 and focused on documents relating to ethnic groups, government, churches, schools, clubs, businesses, and society in general. Few photographs were filmed unless they were an integral part of a collection. 361 collections were microfilmed. If we can be of further assistance, please contact us again. Sincerely, John D. Harvey Senior Archives & Records Assistant Reference Services Georgia Archives 5800 Jonesboro Road Morrow, Georgia 30260 and.... Dear Ms. Johnson: In 1993, Dr. Ann I. Ottesen of Shorter College took various historical papers from locals in the community and microfilmed them so that a copy would be available for all researchers. We do have copies of the microfilm here at the library. It is a varied assortment of papers, some being the Day-Book and Ledgers of the Georgia School for the Deaf, Rome Music Lovers papers, and the minutes of a few churches in the area. If there is anything in particular you are interested in, we will be happy to check for you. Dawn Hampton Rome-Floyd County Library Rome, Georgia and... The index is out of print. The Archives will make a copy [about $70 @ .30/page], but libraries in the referenced counties may have them available for research. There is also one in the Archives, along with all the films, which are not available for inter-library lending. Thanks to everyone who responded to my original question, and I hope the above will be helpful to all of you. Kitty Johnson Corvallis, Oregon
