Archives staff members will assist with answering specific queries and are more than happy to search holdings for materials relevant to a given topic for on-site research by the requesting individual. However, Archives does not have the resources to conduct extensive research for individuals and will not respond to broad, general requests (e.g., “Give me everything you have on the Civil War,” etc.). Before submitting a research request, please review our description and terms of service for historical research and genealogical research.
Include your name, address, phone number, and e-mail address on all written or e-mailed research requests.
Please direct your request to:

P.O. Box 818
