Subject file of the Confederate States Navy, 1861-1865

주

"The Office of Naval Records and Library devised 17 major subject categories for classifying records and assigned a letter of the alphabet to designate each major subject category... Under each main category, documents were arranged chronologically under subtopics, which were also assigned a letter of the alphabet. Each document in the Subject File was assigned a two-letter designation, which indicated the main category and subtopic under which it was filed"--Introd.

"A sizable part of the documents in the Subject File of the Confederate States Navy are paymasters' vouchers, which list disbursements for supplies, equipment, transportation, and other services. Although these documents are financial records, they include incidental information about ship construction, ordnance, personnel, medical conditions, and many other subjects. Other official records include correspondence and reports sent or received by the Secretary of the Confederate States Navy, orders and reports of commanding officers of squadrons or vessels, and muster rolls and payrolls of vessels and shore establishments"--Introd.
