Files are listed individually
Provenance
These documents were found in a folder marked, "GLS NAC." [Gypsy Lore Society North American Chapter] Most of the 'files,' within did not have any labels - so the titles have been created by the Archivist based on their contents.
System of arrangement
These documents were grouped into 'files,' in individual plastic wallets. They have been kept in sequence; but the order reversed to better reflect a chronology.
