Source of Acquisition
The collection was acquired by Special Collections prior to 2008.
Processing Information
The processing, arrangement, and description of the Olive Family Genealogy Notes was completed in January 2013.
This daybook was found in a box titled Gallaher Family, with two other ledgers: Hite Family Genealogy Notes, Ms2012-083, and Household Management Ledger, Ms2012-085. No obvious connection could be found between the three ledgers, so they were processed as separate collections.
Scope and Content
The collection consists of a daybook containing the notes from a genealogy on the Olive Family. The focus of the notes are mainly on James, William, Isham, James Berry, and Dorothy Olive, but other names mentioned include Wilbarger, Pugh, McFarland, Utley, Carter, and Taylor.
