NC Notes

These are collections generated by Staski. There is a 2022 proposal by Jenks that seeks to ensure long-term preservation of the Fort Fillmore and Fort Cummings collections and to make the material more accessible to the public. The proposal is located in <SP-HOME>\Grants\NPS Battlefield Preservation. There are some pdf’s of papers by Staski that are related to the project.
