‘Classes 1878 to 1921’ and ‘Classes 1871 to 1921’ | ''‘Classes 1878 to 1921’'' and ''‘Classes 1871 to 1921’''These sets are transitional between forms and the alphabetical indexes are no longer present as the primary form of index. As on this set, the records are indexed by the name of the subject. There are some in these sets that are not available to be viewed by digital images but the information may be viewable by derogation which is an abstract or extract of sorts. The page that would have more information on the details has not been available while writing this guide and case studies. There will be one additional case study for these sets since they overlap. | ||
