Finding Aid, Ohio River Cultural Resources Assessment 1976-1983

The Veterans Curation Program utilizes the standard archival practice of unique naming of collections. The purpose of this practice is to avoid redundant and confusing collection names commonly found with archaeological investigations. Therefore, this collection is referred to as ―Ohio River Valley Cultural Resources Assessment 1976–1983.‖ This name is consistent throughout the finding aid, the file folders, and the box labels. The extent of this collection is two linear inches.
Ohio River Valley Cultural Resources Assessment 1976–1983 was originally housed within two acidic folders and inside of an acidic box with other document collections. The different document collections were processed separately according to the original housing. This investigation was well organized and in good condition. Personal information, including social security numbers, was removed from the administrative records. Within the documents, only one site was mentioned; however, the investigation included other sites along the Ohio River Valley. The Mary Anne Cole Site (12CR1) in Crawford County, Indiana was mentioned in the records. The collection contained two oversized materials, which were maps in the final report. These documents were flattened and placed in oversized storage.
