"In My Rear View Mirror: My Visions fo the Past," Eugene Ralph Head, 1988
Scope and Contents
The collection originated on two 3 ½ inch floppy disks, which are included at the end of the collection. The documents were first written in a program that is unknown, but made legible using Microsoft Office Word 2007 and printed in their entirety. The files consist of an autobiography of Eugene “Gene” Head entitled: “In my Rear View Mirror: My Visions of the Past.” Also included is an extensive genealogy of the Head family, which traces its ancestors back to the 1700s. The genealogy was started by Clarence Head and was finished by his son, Eugene Head. Both documents were completed in 1988. Also included on the floppy disk was a document titled “List of Documents.” Included on the list were names of newspaper articles, pamphlets, certificates, and other items; however, none of these documents were on either of the disks. Also included in the collection is a file titled “Epilogue.” The document was printed as it originally appeared. A supplemental index for the Head Genealogy was created and added for the aid of researchers.
