Record Copy Applications
Although this Society accepts record copies from those societies listed below, the Registrar/Genealogist reserves the right to request additional documentation in order to approve any application to this Society.
A Record Copy of an application to one of the listed societies must contain all original source citations. In order to make the application valid as a Record Copy, you must include all applications sufficient to make your collection of source materials known as though they were being reviewed for the first time. References to “see original application” or other similar wording do not accomplish this.
