Finding Aid to Documents for the BANC MSS M-A 1 2 history of Mexico, circa 1524-1855 Related Collections Documents from the AGN also appear in two other collections: Account book for sugar plantation, 1693-1698 (BANC MSS M-A 2) and Documents relating to the Juzgado de Indios, 1580-1820 (BANC MSS M-A 3). Because of the nature of these collections, it was not possible to integrate them into the regular AGN group. Indexing Terms The following terms have been used to index the description of this collection in the library's online public access catalog. Catholic Church--Mexico Yucatan (Mexico : State)--History Mexico--Church history Scholes, France Vinton, 1897- Archivo General de la Nacion (Mexico) Arrangement Documents which were copied in the Archivo General de la Nación (AGN), Mexico City, by methods other than microfilm are listed in this finding aid. The copies were made primarily during the period from 1920 to 1945. The transcripts are mostly typed, with a few copies made by hand. The prints were, for the most part, enlarged from nitrate film. In some cases, the nitrate has been replaced by safety film; in others, the nitrate was destroyed because it was hazardous. Professors Woodrow Wilson Borah and France Vinton Scholes were largely responsible for these documents having come to the Bancroft Library. In the late 1940's The Bancroft Library, guided by Professor George P. Hammond, began a program of microfilming in Mexico and Spain, and some of the materials in this collection are also available on microfilm. No attempt has been made to correlate the modern microfilm to the paper copies. The use of the microfilm notebooks and this guide together would make such a correlation possible. The documents in the collection have been checked against Herbert Eugene Bolton's Guide to Materials for the History of the United States in the Principal Archives of Mexico. The arrangement of ramos follows that of the AGN. In addition, within the ramo, documents are identified with tomo or legajo number, and expediente, folio, or date to provide a citation to the original source. Documents, unless otherwise marked, are transcripts.
