The Ells-Dran Filing System

RECORD GROUP 127 RECORDS OF THE UNITED STATES MARINE CORPS

THE ELLS-DRAN FILING SYSTEM

ARCHIVIST NOTE: The description of the ELLS-DRAN filing system included in this finding aid is an abridged and revised version of the text originally created by the Marine Corps. This original text addresses arcane variations of ELLS-DRAN that would be rarely encountered, and have therefore been omitted from this abridged/revised version. The complete text may be seen in Appendix 1 of the RG 127 Inventory No. 2 compiled by Maizie Johnson and published in 1970. The listing of ELLS-DRAN headings that follows this introductory text has also been revised to make the information more easily readable, and omits some erroneous cross-references and other information that would rarely be utilized. Information added to the ELLS-DRAN headings appears in [brackets]. For addenda mentioned in the body of ELLS-DRAN, see page

Keep in mind that ELLS-DRAN is not an index to Marine Corps records. It was developed to provide guidance to Marine Corps personnel maintaining records as they were originally created, gathered and received. As such, the system was open to varying interpretation; therefore not every Marine Corps record series will contain records under every heading listed, and documents related to a particular subject filed in one series of records may have been filed differently in another series.

The ELLS-DRAN system derives its name from first four letters of the surname of its creator (Captain Harry A. Ellsworth), and the acronym that comes from the phrase “Direct Reference, Alphabetical, Numerical.”

The ELLS-DRAN system is subject based, with very broad or “Major” subjects appearing in alphabetic order. Each Major subject (or heading) is assigned a 4-digit numeric designation.

Each Major subject are usually divided further into three subcategories (or subheadings), known (in descending order), as “Primary,” “Secondary,” and “Minor.” These subheadings never consist of more than 3 digits.

As an example, the Major heading for Education is “1520.” Marine Corps schools are identified by the Primary heading “30,” which reads “1520-30.” The Marine Corps schools for officers are then identified by the Secondary heading “120,” which reads “1520-30-120.” The Marine Corps Basic School for officers is then identified by the Minor heading, “10,” or “1520-30-120-10.” This sequence is well illustrated in outline form:

Major Subject 1520 Education Primary Subject 1520-30 Marine Corps Schools Secondary Subject 1520-30-120 Officers Minor Subject 1520-30-120-10 Basic School

ADDENDUMS TO ELLS-DRAN

NOTE: Addenda were rarely used to file documents in record series that have been transferred to the National Archives.

Since individuals, organizations, geographical locations, ships, and other named things interact with the subjects identified in the ELLS-DRAN system, two addenda (or appendixes) were prepared by the creators of ELLS-DRAN in order to describe a method of linking headings to these things.

The first, Addenda 1, divides the alphabet into segments, each identified by a number, 1 through 125. This addenda is generally used to identify names of individuals. The second, Addenda 2, alphabetizes organizations, posts, stations, ships, etc., and each of these “classes” has been assigned a unique number, and each object/place that appears in each class has its own unique identifying number. For example, the class number for Defense Battalions is “40,” and the identifying number of the 1st battalion is “1.” Therefore the addenda 40-1 would identify the 1st Defense Battalion.

Addenda are always separated from the conventional ELLS-DRAN subject headings by a slash, and are never used except in conjunction with those subject headings. (As an example, 1920/40-1 would identify the Muster Roll of the 1st Defense Battalion.)

A pair of hypothetical examples of this follows:

Hypothetical Example 1. This combination of subject headings and addenda numbers could be used to file documents related to an enlistee named John Doe who failed to report for duty at the appointed time:

Major Subject 1535 Enlistment Primary Subject 1535-15 Applicant for Secondary Subject 1535-15-30 Eloped; failed to report Addenda 1 1535-15-30/31 “Do” (for “John Doe”)

Hypothetical Example 2. This combination of subject headings and addenda class/numbers could be used to file documents related to a transfer of members of the Marine Corps detachment aboard USS West Virginia to other assignments after the ship was damaged in the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Major Subject 2445 Transfer (of enlisted men) Primary Subject 2445-65 Sea; onboard ships; detachments Addenda 2 2445-65/110 Ships Addenda 2 2445-65/110-12060 USS West Virginia
