Janis,

I'll be interested to see what responses you receive on this query. I have 3 Civil War pension files on 8-1/2 x 14 paper. The Revolutionary War pension file is on 11 X 17. I used the MRIN filing system in notebooks and currently have a piece of paper in the appropriate sections stating where the actual files are stored. At present they are lying flat in a file drawer in legal sized manilla folders. This is not good usage of file space but I don't know where else to put them.

Thanks for broaching this subject.
Kay

Subject: [LegacyUG] 93-page pension file - handle?


How do others on the list handle the filing of a 93 page complete pension file? I am trying to put everything in notebooks, with sheet protectors. This is obviously not going to fit that format. Although none of the original sheets appear to have been legal size, the person at NARA who copied the file for me put it on legal paper. I don't use legal-size folders (petty prejudice on my part).

Surely no one would use 45 page protectors?

Thoughts welcomed, in spite of the fact that it is a lame question; I think the only answer must be "file it in a legal size folder."

Janis
