Legislative Correspondence, 1944, 1946-1965, Undated
- Extent:
- 4.0 cubic ft.
- Scope and content:
-
This series, divided into two subseries, contains incoming and outgoing correspondence related to the legislative activities of Assemblyman Ernest Curto. Also in this series are enclosures that were included with the original correspondence including copies of legislation, resolutions, newspaper clippings, brochures, reports, and other materials.
The constituent correspondence subseries is in the original order that Curto and his staff kept the files in. For this subseries, they chose to organize it by geographical location of the sender, and these locations corresponded to places in Curto’s Assembly District.
As it was unclear how the general correspondence subseries was originally organized, the archivist arranged it chronologically. Researchers should note, as mentioned above, that this series contains bills from the earlier years of Curto’s service in the legislature. Bills from the later years are individually filed in the bills series.
- Arrangement:
-
Constituent subseries is arranged alphabetically by geographic location of the sender.
