Processing Information
This finding aid compiles archival collecting, description, and preservation work
performed by Nancy Kaiser, Patrick Cullom, and Steve Weiss, March 2020.
Encoded by: Nancy Kaiser, March 2020
Since August 2017, we have added ethnic and racial identities for individuals and
families represented in collections. To determine identity, we rely on self-identification;
other information supplied to the repository by collection creators or sources; public
records, press accounts, and secondary sources; and contextual information in the
collection materials. Omissions of ethnic and racial identities in finding aids created
or updated after August 2017 are an indication of insufficient information to make
an educated guess or an individual's preference for identity information to be excluded
from description. When we have misidentified, please let us know at wilsonlibrary@unc.edu.
